Bride of the Water God
review 1: The art is a strange mix of gorgeous flower and architectural details, and then strange inhuman looking figures that look about 7ft tall and have 8in long fingers. The story is not quite together with the art, i cant put my finger on what exactly is missing. I suspect there is not enough character development because the art is everything to this series. Imagine the 'Dark Shadows' soap opera as a manga.
review 2: This still has that beautiful light delicate line art typical of shojos…but it’s getting to the point I can’t tell Soah from any of the other women and a few of the dudes for that matter. Hyue is about the only one you can tell since he’s blond and Mui because he has short hair. Another bride is sacrificed to Habaek, the water god. Soah plea
... moreds with Mui (still ignorant that he is in fact Habaek) to save the girl. He warns her she might regret it. Mui is told by the doctor-god that the girl is a mute but Soah soon learns otherwise as the woman has nothing good to say to her. The story starts muddling a bit here. The woman looks like and might even be Habaek’s first human wife, Nakbin but he doesn’t believe it. Certainly some of the gods are conspiring to do something. General Hyue takes Soah away since Habaek is in a bad mood, taking her to his hometown, a place of great beauty, an act the others try to use to sow seeds of mistrust in Habaek’s mind. Sadly I’m not sure I’m going to find out what happens next. I need to investigate since I’d heard Darkhorse canceled this manga (big surprise. I’m wondering why they even bother to put up the small manga any more. Everyone is going to those horrible omnibuses which are hard to read and shelve being so darn big). less

I really enjoy the artwork. The story moves a tad slow but it is still enjoyable.

Story moves slowly. Art work remains breath taking, however.
