Mirai Nikki review

What do you get if you cross Higurashi, Death Note, and Battle Royale? Well, something like this. First of all, we have our main character, a boy who uses his cellphone as a personal journal, writing in it everything he sees. He has no friends, or at least no real ones, or so he thinks.
In his mind, his" imaginary friend" the god Deus Ex Machina reveals to him that (CHAP.1 SPOILERS) he is real and gives him to power to see the future through his cell phone. However, he is not the only one to receive these powers, and he must team up with a crazy stalker girl (more on her later) and a seemingly nice cop if he wants to survive.

The art is one of the only gripes I really have with this series. While some things are beautifully illustrated, such as the God, some character designs felt....lacking, like they just stopped trying to make each character look good. However, this is not very noticeable, and will definitely not hinder you from enjoying the series as a whole.

Ah, the characters. Some of the characters (such as our oh so weak and helpless main lead) are not very likable. However, these characters (yes, even him) get stronger as time goes by.
One of the first REAL characters we are introduced (excluding the god and his little chibi friend) is an insane girl who uses her Future Diary to stalk our main character. They then proceed to have what I like to call an "on and off relationship" where he gets freaked out or angry every time she does something batshit crazy.
Throw in a cute girl terrorist, a cop with unknown intentions, and a dude who may or may not be gay, and who have a somewhat lovable cast.

I can honestly say that I am enjoying this series. The multitude of interesting characters are quite fun, and most of them never seem to get old.The phycological aspects work well (by the enemies AND the female lead) And while this is a shonen manga, it is much more fun and enjoyable that many other mangas I have read, and I hope it gets an anime adaption in the future.
