Nothing towards his past is really ever reveled, he is just a character born completely apathetic to emotion. Itsuki is never explained, has left completely vague. I've seen a few adaptations of the apathetic, dangerous, murder capable individual. The main character, Itsuki, isn’t anything new for me at least. And Yoru: the perspective of a naive, curious girl with a troubled past.

The killer: the perspective and inner thoughts of a killer, some even as they execute their work. Itsuki: the perspective of someone with the capability of being a killer, witnessing the work of another killer. I guess you can say the plot gives you three perspectives. It’s full of gore, psychological theory, and a few twist. It consists of four separate cases, one of them being related to Yoru's past. The story portrays the different reactions and interactions of the two main characters with each incident. They take interest in several cases of serial killings in the general area. It’s about two students who have an interest in death and murder. If my reading order had been reversed I'm sure I would have found this more fascinating. I don’t read much of this genre but I'm into horror/psychological movies and things like that.I read something similar to this beforehand too. The horror classification falls more with personalities of the characters. Its not so much scary as it is filled with gore.

^_^įair warning: Know what your getting with this manga. If you enjoy a series that'll get you to think, then this series would be a good pick for you. I'm typically a fan of mystery cases and considering Goth was about a bunch of murder mysteries, I really enjoyed it. As the manga reaches it's end, Yoru's background could become confusing if you don't pay attention, but overall it was good.Įnjoyment - 9/10. In such a short length, we do get background on one of them (Yoru). Overall, I think the style of drawing fit well with the concept.Ĭharacter - Well, you only have the two main characters. Some of the artwork for the more 'horror' scenes were pretty interesting to see as well. It was straight-forward and very easy to interpret, and I think that type of style was a Yoru usually ends up getting involved with some murderer and Kamiyama ends up either solving the case or making a fool of the criminal.Īrt - I actually really liked the art. After a brief encounter, they realize how much they have in common. These students, Yoru Morino and Itsuki Kamiyama, don't initially talk to each other in school. Goth is a story about two students who are basically obsessed with death and murder cases. The title alone sounds pretty intriguing. Goth - short, mystery, psychological, horror manga.
