Magical Girl Apocalypse - a manga written by Kentaro Sato, not very known mangaka. Where did you come to us from, Sato? You just showed up one day and started writing the most ingenious story I have ever read in my life. I can not explain how much I love this story, everything in it; the art, the plot, the characters, everything. But because i need to explain, i will try.
One day, a friend of mine said that there was a manga that his cousin made him read, and that I really should give it a try. Since I was not reading manga at the time, I said "Maybe one day," because honestly, I did not really want to but I did not feel comfortable saying it loud.
After a few months he mentioned this manga again, and because we were already in VC, I started reading so that he would be satisfied. I read only four chapters, and was SHOCKED.
The first four chapters did not make too much sense, yeah, but it was so intresting and the art was AMAZING. Every panel in the manga was a delight to the eyes, literally, it was SO good.
But move the art aside, Sato managed to put in so much in just four chapters. You know what, not four chapters - in just two chapters:
A student who lives a normal life, his love, his childhood friend, his friends, DESTROY EVERYTHING. make him meet new people, they become friends, they somehow manage to survive, DESTROY EVERYTHING.
I'm going to talk about two things: PLOT, and CHARACTERS.
The story itself begins strange and unexplained. It seems like they're going to run away and hide in the whole manga, looking for a way to end this situation, but it turns out it lasts like this for exactly two volumes.
From Volume 3 (Chapter 9) the story crosses the point of no return, and at the same time becomes the most complex, ingenious and amazing story I have read in my life.
I'm not going to keep talking about it, because these are spoilers, so find out for yourself what I mean.
In addition, Sato himself said that at some point he got a headache from the story

I did not like the main character, Kogami, so much at first. The truth is that I did not like Kogami for most of the manga, but in Magical Girl Apocalypse nothing lasts too long, because Kogami is among the best written characters i have ever seen.
With all my love for Kogami, I can not even compare him to Akuta. Akuta is without a doubt the best written character ever in my opinion, but I can not talk about it because of spoilers, and believe me that you don't want spoilers for this manga. I'm just saying you have something to look forward to from a horny cop who walks around naked in a mall during the apocalypse, and you have a lot to look forward to.
