//This review contains spoilers//


I finished this in a single day, because I don't think I would have been able to get back to it if I had left it for later. This was yet another manga I started due to good art, which it turns out is the only good thing to come out of it. As a child, the protagonist, Akuu, saw his own tribe get wiped out by a huge mammoth known as Grash, and decided to exact revenge on it when he becomes stronger. Shortly after, he finds two other kids - siblings called Shurava and Shuri (this will be relevant later, somewhat) and travels with them to another tribe where the people were crazy and tried to kill them. Akuu went bat-shit insane and murdered all of them, his "curse" giving him strange powers or whatever. In the frenzy, he had also hit Shuri, as a result of which she became mute (lol) and Shurava deciding to take revenge on Akuu, who fled to the jungle. Time skip! The protagonist is now an absolute stud who doesn't care about anyone else, is very strong, kills gigantic beasts in a matter of seconds, has lots of sex with girls after each kill, and is only 17 years old. How epic. Character development is non-existent, blood-thirsty enemies become life-saving friends on a whim (like Shurava), there is no real drive behind the actions of literally anyone. The last 20 chapters or so were so fucking stupid that I had to skim through the pages without reading any of the dialogue, because frankly, I doubt they had any substance at all. Akuu eventually does what he set out to do and then decides that he loves Shuri (with whom he had absolutely no interaction with for like, the past 6 or 7 years), has sex with her, she miraculously gets her voice back, gets pregnant and everything is all good and happy again with a new family and tribe, until at the very last panel, the offspring of the Grash is shown with the text "History is cursed to repeat itself." Okay, fuck you too bitch.

I am angry and I am sad. Angry because this is such a shitty manga, and sad because the talent of the artist has been misused to such an extent. This is more of a rant than a review, I suppose, but fuck it. I'm not much of a writer, and this is my first review, which I wrote out of sheer anger and disappointment so forgive me if it feels flimsy or dull.
