The rest of the cast is not as well developed, but they do all make a good impression. Most of the criminals are nicely distinct in attitude and motivation, making them at least interesting to watch. A personal favorite is one character who was sentenced to death because he embarrassed his clan leader. After he gets his pardon, he wants to get revenge, not by killing the leader, but by cutting his mansion in half. The other Asaemon members are not as developed, and some are gone before the end of the book. It’ll be interesting to see what becomes of them as the story goes on. Even though the art in Hell’s Paradise: Jigokuraku features some gruesome content, I still find Yuji Kaku’s art style to be beautiful. The way he depicts certain scenes is really impactful and the story could be told alone through his art. With such amazing illustrations, I always worry that the story-telling won’t be on the same level, but that’s not the case here. Hell’s Paradise: Jigokuraku is visually-appealing, but it also has a gripping story, and it’s one of the few manga as of late that has excelled in both areas. Publishers Weekly wrote that the mysterious first volume and Kaku's detailed illustrations, which they found to be reminiscent of Junji Ito's horror manga and give the series an unsettling, gruesome charm, start the series off with promise. [3] Reviewing the first chapter for The Fandom Post, Chris Beveridge gave it a B grade for its artwork, interesting ideas and covering a lot of ground in its setup so it can move forward. The end reveal reminded him of the novel Annihilation. However, he felt the structure was a little awkward and expressed concern that it would fall into the "usual manga storytelling traps." [75] In a review of the second collected volume, Beveridge's colleague Richard Gutierrez said that while the nightmarishly beautiful images and action might be what initially draws in readers, its the "underlying complex character construction within this sadistic story which forces us to stay."

However the island is full of mysteries, and the exploring team—consisting of those marked for death—might not be fully prepared to handle them. The Yamada Asaemon ( 山田浅ェ門) is a prestigious swordsmen dojo in Edo. They train sword testers to become fully-fledged executioners for the Shogunate. Once fully trained, each swordsman has their name preceded by the title "Yamada Asaemon."

Production [ edit ] Of course, with criminals being unleashed on this island all with same goal, there’s bound to be some chaos. We got some brief glimpses of this in the first volume with some criminals forming alliances while others attempted and some succeeded to kill off their competition. But, it seems that the other criminals are the last of their worries with the introduction of that monster at the end of Volume 1. The island is full of unknown terrors, and the mystery it holds keeps me reading, but it’s the emotional moments you get from characters, like Gabimaru and Sagiri, that have me hooked even more. One of its major appeals is the sheer amount of violence that occurs in this series, but the story is never sacrificed by any means. As a result, Hell’s Paradise: Jigokuraku is one of my favorite manga releases to debut this year and I’m excited to catch up on the volumes that have been released so far!
