Review:
I missed a volume, and now we seem to have discovered a couple more
of the god candidates. There's one guy who's leading something big
and trying to pick off the other candidates, and cause chaos. Then
there's Mirai, who's working with Saki and Mukaido, strategizing on
how to deal with the other enemy. They're working together, and the
other one is just trying to goad them out. And it works.
I feel like there's more behind the angels' motivation than is being
shown, that there's something else going on. If there's not, then I
really don't understand their motivation and what side they're really
on. They don't seem that angelic to me.
The plot in this series seems odd to me, but maybe I just don't
really understand this. Then there's that big twist at the end, which
went much farther than I expected it to. This series seems rather
similar to Death Note, to me. And it's just okay.
