Utsurowazarumono: Breath of Fire IV

Breath of Fire IV was one of my favorite RPG games,I really used to be addicted to it back when I was a child and I'm still are actually,when I found out about this manga I was really happy,to be more precise this is actually the first manga i read,so it was like a starting point for me to a great world.


-Story:
Of course it follows the story of the game,which was very unique,A young named named Ryu who was founded naked in the desert by two travelers who were looking for a lost princess,Ryu joined them as he was totally lost and didn't know what to do or where to go,the only thing we wants was to meet a person he he doesn't know who he is,this person was Fou-Lu (the first emperor),unlike Ryu;Fou-Lu is aware of his goal and determination but he doesn't know where to find Ryu (he was unaware of his name) so he decided to go to the capital so Ryu will go there eventually with time.

I don't want to say anything furthermore about the story so I could avoid posting spoilers,but I have to say that they were many scenes and events that were in the game but skipped in the manga,this work could've been longer but the progression of the story is well.



-Art:
Nothing really unique about it,could say your average manga art,I'm not really expert in this judgment so I couldn't say much about the art.



-Characters:
You may hate the main protagonist in the beginning of the story till the middle of it,since he doesn't do anything worth admiring and he seemed like just a push-over guy by the others,but things change at a specific event in the story,the antagonist's personality is great (i.e Fou-Lu),a cold-blooded guy who doesn't care much or less about humans until he meets a person that will open his heart.

The personalities of the other main characters are good,but the story concentrate mainly about the above mentioned characters,so the other could be seen as just supportive characters to these two.


-Enjoyment;
Since I'm a big fan of the game I really enjoyed the manga,brings back my childhood memories which make my eyes teary sometimes,simply love it.


In the end I just have to say that it isn't necessary to play or read the other series of Breath of Fire (BOF) to enjoy this work,but if you didn't play BOF IV before I don't think you would really enjoy reading the manga,so the best decision is doing both if you have time.

Thanks for reading :)

Hello, I'm a fan of MAL of Brazil and lover of Breath of Fire, this without doubt was the game that I played most in my life, I got to get + 90 hours playing, I completed the game and kept looking for bonuses secrets. I really love this game, so when I discovered that there was a Manga I ran and read it at once, and I ended up enjoying it a lot, the only thing I thought could have gotten better, is how they illustrated the battles of the game, taking the battle out Finally, I thought the others were half empty. An example is when the group meets Kahn, the fight is summarized in a single section of the page, outside that only presented his first fight, not that he is such an important character, but it was a little run, otherwise perfect, thanks for the attention .

Sorry for the BAD ENGLISH ;-;
