I Am a Hero - Chia Sẻ Kiến Thức Điện Máy Việt Nam

I’m gonna let this would-be masterpiece pop my first review cherry.

TL;DR: Imagine yourself chewing a fresh piece of gum. First couple of chews were all hard and boring. But as its flavour starts to release, it motivates you to want more. This continues to build up and up. Until when you’ve finally chewed and moisturised it enough to have that pleasant squishy feel with its flavour at its prime. Absolute Bliss. But wait. Right now, you are getting told to stop and spit it out. A mix of disappointment, dissatisfaction and perhaps anger, right? That’s my experience with I Am a Hero. Dissatisfaction and disappointment

…

with a dash of anger. End TL;DR.

Alright, I’m going to assume that I can let loose from here. I’ll sync my thoughts as I type and try to keep this short.

After finishing a romance zombie manga, my interest with zombie manga rose a little. So, I ended up reading I Am a Hero’s summary through recommendations. A little bit of blah blah here, I dislike reading or watching multiple stories at once because my memory will get mixed up and the feelings will jumble up annoyingly. I had already started reading another romance manga at this point but decided to start reading I Am a Hero anyway, especially since that shotgun on the cover picture probably means some good ol’ F U zombie actions.

Art – 10/10:
I’m not a picker. The faces were drawn very differently comparing to the other manga/anime I’ve read/watched. I had a hard time getting used to it but the attention to the details of the many sceneries in this series more than make up for it. Plus, since we’re getting a lot of gore here, it helps a lot for me to separate I Am a Hero from my other Happy, Feel Gooo..Great manga/anime. Actually, I’m just going to say it bluntly, the faces were drawn ugly but they are also very unique. Anyhow, it’s not like everyone in real life are beautiful or handsome anyway. Take my 10 with no shame.

Character – 10/10:
Not a picker. I don’t really pay attention as to whether the stories behind the characters contradict or make sense at all. They were all believable and it was interesting how their relationships progressed. No complaints, so no penalty from my default 10/10 score.

Story – 8/10:
Honestly, I think I could give this a 0 because I absolutely hate bad endings. Bad as in incomplete or illogical endings. As you may understand from my TL;DR, I Am a Hero felt incomplete to me. There were quite a few cues throughout the story that MAY have indicated that the author needed to cut this story short or worse. I’m going to be naive and believe that there is a FULL version of I Am a Hero and by judging the series’ direction while mixing a bit of estima… imagination, I’m giving this an 8/10 for its high potential for a masterpiece ending. What’s a masterpiece ending? It’s any ending that leaves a gapping hole in my heart with a pint of satisfaction for finishing the series.

Enjoyment – 8/10:
Reading it was a bliss. Finishing it was a nut job. I’m going to imagine that I Am a Hero does not end where it ended.

Overall – 8/10:
Should be 9, right? No. I’m still salty from that sorry excuse of an ending. Actually, I should rate this at below 5/10. I seriously dislike it when a story terminates abruptly, especially when I’m so engaged to it. It’s like a school excursion getting cancelled just as every arrived at the destination. “We’re finally here. But we are leaving now.”

Ol’ me can’t take this unbelievable turn of event. I’m going to believe I Am a Hero has not end. The next chapter will see the return of our gal, a more in-depth explanation of the final climax and a mention of one of our last heroes in the series – the quiet heroine.

PS. Sorry for screwing up the overall score that represents I Am a Hero. It doesn’t really deserve an 8 and I truly am bad at rating. I still have hope for this and I gave my overall score based on what I hope. Sorry for that.
I hope we can find a manga/anime that can top this, and still have a befitting ending.

PS2. Sorry, I’m really out of time now. Please endure my grammar mistakes if applies.
