Considerations This is a spoilerfree review. 90+ in my rating means masterpiece. Ive got to read this work on a friends recommendation. I didnt look too much into the synopsis and just started reading. The Story What are you going to say after your life ends? Whether you grumble with complaints or smile contentedly its all up to you. The story of About Death is episodic in which every episode covers a persons meeting with God. The story has its main focus on the stories of each individual and how they accept the fact of meeting God. Theres a lot of philosophy and a lot of scenarios: suicidal murderers workaholics and people that never even considered that they were going to die. This manga can be unpleasant to read at times. It can be frustrating at times. It can also feel like youre taking The Matrix red pill and waking up to harsh reality. I cant complain about any aspect of the story in general or any episodic story as I can see what the author tried to do with each. I dare say that if you look right and analyze each situation in this manga you can see some lessons that you can put into your life. And thats why I was able to give it a 90+. A masterpiece in my view needs to be a work that has either a distinguishing trait or youre able to take something from the said work. 320https://64.media.tumblr.com/90d8d3e5201e7e8f3d5b0d365cb7fb40/tumblrpa0pwfJROx1uvdq9no11280.jpg The Art Style The art is simple. Theres not much in terms of background and as opposed to many manhwas its not fully colored. There are panels with colors when those panels are made to be impactful. 320http://pm1.narvii.com/6889/6fcc566c5d166304470396c40661f448115aa9bfr1714732v2uhq.jpg The art overall is normal but not terrible. I could not spot any clear error of perspective or anything that would make me look and say Oh thats ugly. The focus of this manga is not its art rather its words so it feels like the art is just there to visually represent the idea and nothing more. The Characters Characters are episodic and theres a fair number of different people in different situations as I mentioned in the story section. Each one has a different reaction when meeting God. There are people that accept the fact there are others that complain about life and there are still others that blame others. Each interaction tries to bring light to a scenario and tries to show you situations that you could fall into. You may relate to one or other of the characters and may take a few lessons from them. As I always talk about the main character in my reviews. The main character here is God and he is different from what I expected. God is sarcastic kind cruel and full of jokes when needed. It is a very interesting interpretation of God and I think that how God changes depending on the character is really good. 320https://basakaintulog.files.wordpress.com/2018/07/aboutdeath05.png Conclusion If youre like me you skip everything and read only the conclusion because you dont want to get spoiled with other themes. So I will try to be brief on this point: Read it. Maybe you never thought about it but you are going to die. Thats a fact. This work is perfect for showing you so many situations and making you think about your life. Who are you? What are you doing with your life? What if you die today? What are you going to say to God?
