Book Review: D.Gray-Man Vol. 24


Review:  #862
Title:  D.Gray-Man Vol. 24
Series:  D.Gray-Man – 24th volume
Author:  Katsura Hoshino
Comments:  Things are getting really confusing and messy right now.  It starts off well enough, elaborating on the surprise appearance of a character from the end of the last volume.  Once it returns to following Allen again, who is now reunited with Johnny and Kanda, things takes a turn to the bizarre.  We get some big fight scenes but the artwork is so busy that it’s hard to make out what is happening.  The characters use some weird powers and things spontaneously happen with must explanation on the reason why.  The ending takes the cake when the Millennium Earl shows up and goes crazy.  It’s at this point that you try and reflect how much the tone and direction of the story has changed compared to the earlier volumes, and maybe it’s not a good thing.
