Choujin X, Vol. 1: Volume 1

Product Information

Well-Intentioned Extremist: The mother of the Tower of Mourning, Zora, is willing to kill hundreds of people for a small chance to save Yamato. This also extends to people working directly for her like Chandra.

Nightmare Face: Ricardo has four eyes and has tentacles on faces. He uses his appearence to scares a civilian for fun and Tokio notes that he looks teryfying. My Significance Sense Is Tingling: Choujin send out a signal other Choujin can sense when they're using their powers. As a fan of Ishida's previous work, TG, I'm loving this one too. It started off as "goofy" and with a touch of "ridiculousness" to me, especially with how the main characters are handling themselves and are being handled but I'm loving it so far. The hype definitely is real where it's due and the comedic moments made me burst out laughing. Having a great time! The powers are more like concepts they can be expanded and the only limit seems to be the user's own creativity leading to every sort of power you can think of being on display, some more typical and some downright weird and surreal. Chekhov's Gun: During Tokio's "date" with Nari at the abandoned zoo it's shown that the hyena is missing from its cage, though the hyena appears in the story later on.Super Smoke: Chandra, Ely and Zora can create super-heated smoke, used either to burn people, fly or hide in it. Now, the characters are very unique, focusing on two seemingly different, yet very similar protagonists. I personally have never read a manga with two different protagonists, but I’m liking it so far. I am kinda disappointed where the story is heading. It feels like a generic shounen, (again, its pretty early to judge as only one chapter released as of now). But it kinda feels like I am reading Chainsaw Man again but...much more weird. I didn't like how suddenly the Main Character- Tokio, got his powers. Its like a mix between Jujutsu Kaisen, Chainsaw Man and MHA. It could have been more interesting, if ghouls continued to exist. I am not really a big fan of this. Zora can use gravity to makes people and object levitate, or to create a gravity field around herself.

The art style is gorgeous as usual, sketchy but not lazy. The character designs are nice; they all have a "cute" look, which I like.Let’s start with the plot. Since there’s only two chapters I can’t quite get into too much detail about the plot yet, but from what I’ve read, I can tell Ishida has put lots of effort and planning into this. The biology references are really fun to analyze and research and you can see foreshadowing take place in many moments that seem minor. The entire story feels like a fever dream, but in a good way. It’s one of the most unique, crazy stories I’ve Evil Tower of Ominousness: Throughout the series, a strange smoke-spewing tower can be seen in the middle of Yamato. It turns out to be the headquarters of Mother Zora, the series' main antagonist and the Choujin X of the previous generation. in Japanese). Shueisha. Archived from the original on November 16, 2022 .
