Beck Chapter 102 Discussion

It was good I really like it but the end not so much I wanted to see ending with Maho x Koyuki and what hapens with them but I sow memories of the pass i hate when the autors do that.

Fucking love for this manga. One of my favorites now.

Only thing that somewhat bothers me, is the fact that characters like Izumi or Hyodou weren't mentioned again after their "part" in Koyuki's development in music. I think FVE should have appeared a second time, I thought the American Tour arc was done very well. Lastly, I kind of think Sayaka should have appeared again, even if it was only a page or so. Kind of seemed odd. the last scene she was in with Koyuki, then cutting out. Didn't really mention what happened with Victor either after Leon and his gang surprised him on his turf. Guess he's dead though. Other than that, this series was damn good.

Oh man, I do agree with this statement. The ending (for the band, not Eddie's bonus chapter) is a  mixed bag for me. It feels a bit rushed, isn't it? Like many of the characters is not ended properly. Their last performance on Grateful Sound could've been shortened and be used to show more character's conclusions. Like, Izumi's role is very important to Koyuki's arc since she pretty much kickstarts the whole story by introducing Koyuki to DB, but they weirdly just forget about her and swept it under the rug. Maho also completely disappears after Avalon. Leon Sykes never explored more either (and also disappear after Avalon, same as Maho), he is pretty much the same character all the way to the end. Too bad because I LOVE him and wish he had a redemption arc or something. I still love the whole manga, though. Probably 8/10 for me.

That was a satisfying end.



THANK YOU :)

Nice 9/10

And i must say Maho x Koyuki is one of the best couple out there

was a amazing series was kinda hoping to see maybe a page off where they are in a couples year and i liked that extra on eddie

That was a really good read but to be completely honest the author should have expanded a bit on maho and koyuki's relationship because to be honest i felt really disappointed in the end. I mean even in the very last conflict they had where they met each other it didn't exactly feel resolved i mean they were going through some serious shit and then suddenly a hug fixes that? what? I dont want to be sounding like i hated the series it was a brilliant story overall just needed to explore maho and koyuki a little bit more because their relationship started extremely strong in the beginning but they concluded the story without any progress in their relationship

Great series but just as some others said I was a bit disappointed with how they concluded Koyuki and Maho's relationship. Maho became too much of a side character in the second half and it felt like their relationship wasn't concluded properly.



Anyways besides that the final concert was amazing, I even played the Devil's way soundtrack while reading it. I really liked this series I was hooked since the first episode of the anime. Overall I give it a 9/10.



I'm going to definitely watch the Live action movie for beck.

                The last chapter has been scanned. It's been a great run. I've been reading this since I was 14. I'll miss this series. Yet, I'm surprised Harold hasn't came out with another manga.

LMFAO I was re-reading the series and just noticed...Hiro Nakamura is a BECK fan? xD

I still find Eddie's death to be one of the most meaningless moments of this manga. However I've accepted it and moved on. Overall I give this manga 10/10 because the characters, drawing, and conclusion was very satisfactory for me. Sure the story had repetitive moments and way too many antagonists who hate Beck and it was a relief once all of them went away. I can't find it in my heart to give Beck a 9/10 for those flaws and I love the characters way too much to give it anything less than 10/10.

Thoroughly enjoyed this manga besides a few things that bothered. The art at times was somewhat off-putting for me. But the ending was okay. I did feel Maho x Koyuki  was missing out from the ending. Especially after the whole chasing each other down in UK. Personally didn't like Maho becoming a side character for the second half but it's what it's. To me it was weird but I get that music is the main focus.
