Laughter in the End of the World

Chapter 1: http://www.batoto.net/read/_/143592/laughter-in-the-end-of-the-world_ch1v2_by_red-hawk-scans

A girl named Haru and her big brother suddenly appear in town. Her brother, seeming an akuma, is shunned by the people. Butt, he gets them to bring him to the chief of the town where he offers to bury the akuma - Godot - who has been living in the town for 5 years. Can this "akuma eater" accomplish this task?

New series by the author of Kekkaishi, there's only 3 chapters out as of now but it looks quite promising. I especially like how it doesn't try to rush things in the first couple of chapters like so many other manga tend to do. Probably too soon to judge anything yet but with this, AssClass, OP-Man and 7 Deadly Sins, these last months sure have produced some nice new shounen series. Any thoughts?

Was actually going to start a thread for this, bummer.

Liking it so far, it's definitely taking it's time which isn't a bad thing. Followed Kekkaishi and liked it, so I'm sure it'll be the same with this series.

Chapter 3 had quite the twist, if I do say so myself.

It was definitely unexpected

Im actually enjoying this series so far. The skit between the main character and the major was funny enough. The people have good enough personalities, though a bit gloomy considering the setting. My only gripe is the design of haru, shes a bit frumpy.

I think i'll have to follow this for a while and see where its heading.

Wow, I hope its better than Kekk, which kinda fell a part a bit towards the end…

Edit: wow end of chap 3. . .I've been Shyamalan'd

Have not started this, is any good? I was not able to end Kekkaishi, that series was such a trainwreck towards the end.

This is pretty good. Nice pacing right from the get go. The author seems to have learned a lot from Kekkaishi.

Smudger

I could see myself getting hooked on this.

Edit: the latest chapter was really good. I still haven't a clue what direction this series is going to go.

When i read [End], i was like WTF? . Pity really, i kind of liked the series, the protagonist and his sister were really interesting.

So it was a mini-series. That's a shame.

Will be looking forward to the author's next work though.
