Title: Blue Exorcist Vol. 3
Author: Kazue Kato
Original publication date: March 2010
Genre: Manga
Book Description (from Good Reads): As a new Exorcist Esquire at True Cross Academy, Rin Okumura has a long way to go before he reaches the top rank of Paladin. When Rin and his classmates are sent to search for a ghost, Amaimon, King of Earth, takes Rin by surprise and steals the Koma Sword. Higher powers have been observing events at the academy and make their presence known. New players enter the game, and Rin doesn't even know he's playing!
Thoughts:
The building of friendship of the people here is slowly growing and it gives it a good vibe. Though the enemies, are still something hard to pin point their goal, I assume it will be revealed a bit later.
The drawing style is still enjoyable and the story is fun.
It is a bit slow because we don't see much progress on the overall objective of Vengeance. It makes sense because the main character is in school and learning to be an exorcist. And that's just what they are doing right now, learning.
The very good thing is that it makes a very fast read.
I gave this 4 stars.
Used to accomplish challenges:
*Supernatural a thon Dean. read a graphic novel/manga
*Supernatural Readathon. Read a book under 200 pages
The Queens Knight vol 1
Author: Kim Kang Won
Original publication date: 1998
Book description: During summer vacation to visit her mother in Germany, 15-year-old Yuna Lee falls off a cliff and is recued by Reino, an 18-year-old knight living in the magical land of Phantasma. He makes a deal with Yuna that if he saves her life, she must marry him and become his queen. Indebted to her knight in shining armor, Yuna is torn between her family and friends back home and life as Phantasma's Queen.
Thoughts:
So the description is not as related or at least I did not feel like it represented it correctly. Maybe in volumes set later the situations are going to be presented but so far no. we have only a typical story of a girl who seems to have a very regular life, good brothers and friends, but then a girl who due to jealousy starts t try to make her life miserable.
Not bad really, I think it is a good start, the fantastical element is still very minimal. There is a knight who can communicate through dreams but Yuna thinks she is dreaming the whole thing and not paying attention.
I used this book to accomplish
*Bookeyman A Thon. Read a book with an animal on the cover. by the way the cover is not very representative either, there was only an animal featured and it was a dog not a bird like it was shown on the cover.
*Supernatural Readathon. Read a book with travel elements. Yuna does travel from Japan to Germany, then it ends with the prospect of traveling back to Germany.
