Okay, I'm back for a little while, but apparently my computer will just, like, stop working sometime soon, and then I won't have one for a couple of weeks. So if I disappear suddenly, you'll know why. In the meantime, I'm posting to pimp stuff really fast with liberal doses of copy-pasta from wikipedia. There will be more pimping on its way if my computer doesn't die on me.

{ ALIVE: THE FINAL EVOLUTION }
READ IT ONLINE/ DOWNLOAD IT




A young student named Taisuke stands up for his friend, Hirose, who often seems to be picked on. Besides that, he lives a rather normal life with his childhood friend, Megumi, and his older sister who works as the nurse of the school. Both of his parents were killed in a car accident. But one day, a strange virus starts making people commit suicide during that week. Taisuke witnesses one of these suicides and very oddly is gifted suddenly with a strange ability. He soon finds out that Hirose has left school, and Megumi has been kidnapped. In order to find his friends, Taisuke sets out on a journey. But he encounters people like him, who have abilities, and the mystery of these people and the virus slowly starts to unfold....

So basically! It's totally generic shounen, except a thousand times more awesome. It just- fits together really well, and handles all the gore really effectively, and everything seems to be deliberate and you only really notice the obvious foreshadowing because you don't really know where the rest of it is going. And the characters are actually really likable, even if they're pretty much the generic stereotypes. The story has a really smooth flow, too, and you barely notice how many chapters you've read. And ANYWAYS, I SUCK AT EXPLAINING, BUT YOU SHOULD READ IT. Because there are people commiting suicide and dying all over and other people who go crazy and get badass powers. And it's awesome.

too bad i suck at this, alive, *, pimping posting, win~
