What a “Bloody” mess!?

Blood the Last Vampire story and art by Tamaoki Benkyo

Murder, blood, lust, power, death, mystery and vampires. What more could you want in a manga? Those little things that make you crave about wanting of something you can’t have. Sense of the speed of the fighting. The helplessness of being a human who has created an immortal. The experience of death, blood and pleasure. We feel as see the darkness that spread over “Blood the Last Vampire” as we as the viewer engross ourselves into reading such horror. The beautifully structure piece of artwork created by Tamaki Benkyo presents a deathly battles of humans consumption of corruptions of wanting more. The immortals and the created monstrous vampires who seem to fit in as normal beings. The suffering and lost minds of humans kind and vampire.

The art work is seemingly beautiful. The power and emotion are built to connect the terror and sadness felt in the one volumed manga. The bloody mess of blood murder and destruction of ones self. The pages of simple but very complex drawings artworks with very few words in most of the pages seem to grab your attention. The monochromatic look gives the reader a touch of darkness as each page explains the deadly story of vampires and humans.

“Blood the Last Vampire” Is a very good old style manga to read at least once in anyone’s life time. It just piques just anyone’s interest even if not a horror fanatic. Just the thrilling pleasure of blood, violence sadness and cold hearted vampires seems to pop out in anyone’s world. This sense shrouded darkness that over layers the manga piece depicts the beauty of the darkness. This is probably a good recommended manga to read if not have not been read before. Although it’s a very old but a lot of old manga and anime is pretty good. But it’s always good to read over again and feel that strangely beautiful manga piece.

I rate this manga out of 10: 8.75/ 10
