Wolf Guy: Ookami no Monshou

The manga caught my attention, because I thought it was about an awesome werewolf. It was about an awesome werewolf for a while, but then it turned into rape hentai. The author showed backstories of two different girls that were raped in a few panels, but enough to invoke the emotion he wanted. However, the author then focused a whole arc about a character repeatedly being raped by a group of gangsters. I had to double check the title, because I thought I was reading a hentai. The character that was gang-raped had been raped two other different occasions. The title should probably be changed to The Horrible Life of Akiko Aoshika.

The I liked the mc at the beginning, but I later realize he is a hypocrite. He claims he wants to be alone and does not seems like he wants to do function in society when he becomes an adult. He plans to live out in the wild, but he has been jumping from school to school, because of fights, instead of living in the wild. Then he talks about how much he despises humans, or pities them, but is more willing to kill animals than humans, regardless how horrible the human. Again, the mc claims he does not want to involve himself with humans, but he involves himself enough to aggravate the ire of the hostility of some humans. He provokes some humans enough to cause destruction around him and going as far as raping someone close to him. The mc turned a horrible gangster, into a psychotic murderer.

Them we have Ryuuko, the horrible human that has gotten away with almost everything. She also had a dark past, but her current actions did not make me feel pity for her. She was the root cause of the gang-rape.

Summing the story up, the “invincible” werewolf still had problems with the human middle-schooler antagonist throughout the story.

Ok, lets roll!!

First my overall rating for this manga is 8, great arts and good story +characters do greatly enhance overall idea that is rather simple. To not say to much about it i will just write here that the story basically is about Akira Inugami who is looking for his place in the world but only thing he get is brutal world filled with all sorts of humans.

Second that YOU, maybe future reader, must know is that this manga contains lots of violence and some scene(s) of sex also rape. So its rather for mature people not some woo kids who sees rape and put a mark on the title. If you are not adult enough drop it..., Aikara's world is brutal no pink glasses included.

And thats what makes this manga good, that good that i gave it 8. Personally i hate rape but I writing that this title sucks because it contains it would be wrong. Great visual side, mature world and story are definitely strong points. What i didn't liked were some odd points in story when I THINK they should act differently. And Im disappointed that Inugami family story wasn't shown better.

Wolf Guy - Wolfen Crest, at least thats what onemanga calls it, is a manga about a werewolf named Akira. And that's a good enough introduction for me, so on to the review.

STORY: 8/10
Well, there are only 19 chapters out at the time of this review so theres not too much of a story right now. Although the little story there is seems to be good. Akira is in his last year of middle school and has just transfered into one of the most dangerous schools ever. Seriously. He walks into class on the first day, starts to write his name on the board, and before he's even finished he gets a knife thrown at him. Nice class, eh? So this is a fight manga where Akira gets beat up a ton, but he doesn't fight back because he feels humans are a waste of time. He just gets hit with iron pipes, bats, and fists, but he's basically invincible weather he's in werewolf form or not so he doesn't care.

When he has fought back it's pretty freaking cool and fun to watch. He hasn't revealed that he's a werewolf to anyone yet, so everyone is really confused as to why he can take a razor blade to the back and walk to school the next day unphased. Akira's teacher is suspicious of him so she is trying to figure out why Akira is the way that he is. I want to give the story a 9, but it's just too soon to be handing out scores that high for a story thats so premature.

ART: 8/10
This is a very dark manga and the drawings are just as dark. But sometimes the art can be too dark, and it's hard to tell what exactly is going on. Overall it is extemely well drawn, and the backgrounds and characters are all very uniquely drawn. Wolf Guy - Wolfen Crest definetly has it's own style. The art can be beautiful at times and scary at others. It really is great except for one little aspect which appears in thousands of other manga. The "middle school kids" look like they are all adults. Akira looks older than his homeroom teacher. Since this manga is obviously for ages 17+ I don't see why the mangaka decided to make the characters 14-15. However it really doesn't take away from anything aside from a little realism so I can half-way forgive him.

CHARACTER: 8/10
Well, you've got Akira (werewolf), his sexy homeroom teacher Ms. Aoshika, and a bunch of school delinquents. Akira has a pretty mysterious past so you don't really know much about where he comes from, but his homeroom teacher has already gotten a nice amount of backstory. Even a couple of the random school delinquients have had some good backstory which is very unusual, but very much appreciated. You understand why they are so mad all of the time, and why they bully others. For 19 chapters there is a perfect amount of back-story. It's not all given in one random flashback chapter either. You get bits and pieces gradually, and it really builds the characters.

Also, Akira is one badass mofo.

ENJOYMENT: 10/10
As I was reading through the epic fight scenes, admiring the beautiful artwork and totally immersing myself into the Wolf Guy - Wolfen Crest universe I was subconsciously thinking one thing: If only that hot homeroom teacher would get naked. I know its extremely pig-headed of me, but I wanted some nudity to go along with all the blood and cursing. Then BOOM! she was topless. Now, this manga was perfect. It had a badass main character, naked hot chicks, and werewolves. I dare anyone to come up with a more enjoyable combination of things than that.

OVERALL: 8/10
I already kinda summed up Wolf Guy in the Enjoyment part of this review so I'll make this short. Awesome. Yes. 8.

I have always been a fan of werewolves. When I saw the title Wolf Guy, I had this speculation that it was going to be really interesting and hoping it would have a lot of twists. I saw a picture of Akira Inugami in the front cover, which seemed to give off a mysterious vibe to it.

Story - 5

In the beginning it starts off very slow. The first few chapters, it has a lot of mystery and sort of keeps you intrigued on how many events are tied in. For example, you get this curiosity on where Inugami came from and also wants to know his origiin. Now the sad part is when he meets a very curious teacher. I don't know how many times this girl gets raped in the manga, but it just went off a different tangent. It actually diluted the main plot. His enemies motives are also based on insanity and power seeking monsters, where they just want to kill Inugami to prove themselves that they're on top of the food chain. One of the decent things about this manga was probably the action. They were really intense and it showed a lot of dynamic camera angles, blood and they put a lot of realism into it. As the story progresses around the middle to end, the whole story probably revolves around more sexual scenes and where Inugami is left with very few choices to make. It gets at least interesting on how with those choices that he had to make, his personality changes and makes the right decision for the sake of justice and only finds out he was in love.

Art - 10

One of the best I've seen. Loved the amount of dynamic lighting to enhance the backgrounds and characters. The details of every character is fabulous, especially the hair.

Character - 7

I thought of the majority of the characters in the manga were insane, barbaric and wild, just what you would expect from a seinen. When I mean wild, i mean being horny and wanted sexual pleasure. It's a shame that some characters needed a background story and how they tied in with Inugami, therefore it lacked substance. Overall, character's were good in general.

Enjoyment - 8
I must admit, I do like reading manga that has nudity, violence and lots of action, and this manga had that all. To me the action scenes were at least decent enough to cover up a mediocre story line. What can I say, everyone has their own tastes.

Overall - 7
It was okay. Not the best cake I've seen, but overall it was better than average. The art and action made up for the average story line. However, they could have used less sexual scenes and put more depth and substance in the characters to make the story more interesting.

When I saw the art, I felt drawn to it. When I saw the title, I started to worry. When I got to the part of the story where he turns into a werewolf, I had a gut feeling I should stop reading this.

Art - The art is nothing short of excellent. I don't know how to describe it, but the characters look rather lively when they're surprised. I'm not talking about eyes opened wide with tiny pupils and a gaping wide mouth. This manga shows them on a good angle with a convincing expression. You can feel how smug, angry, or sad the characters are by looking at them.
However, there was a certain feeling I had. The characters have sexy faces and hair, and the teacher has huge breasts. Whoever drew this must've been a hentai artist or something. Unsurprisingly, there was some nudity and pretty hardcore stuff in here. I just skimmed the text and went to the next page quickly.

Story - Hah! There is no story! There's lots of blood, violence, and rape, though. You think it might be going somewhere, but 20 chapters in, it still isn't. If you want those things, you should check out Hellsing instead; the violence is more intense, there's actually a story, and it doesn't have nearly as much porn in it. If you want porn, go look some up; it has no place in this story.
The main character constantly complains about how worthless humans are and how superior and noble wolves are. His opponents attack him like a pack of hungry wolves, yet he's outraged when people compare wolves to those humans since a wolf would never do such a dishonourable thing! He thinks he's being a wolf by getting beaten to shit and doing nothing about it... I'm sure a real wolf would viciously maul a person in return.

Characters - The characters are pretty much a joke.

Teacher: Seems like an airhead with large breasts, but she has a bit of a more interesting side to her. She can be kinda playful without seeming like a complete whore. She can be a bit understanding and has thoughts of her own; she isn't just someone's bitch. She's too romantically obsessed with wolf guy for too little reason. She's a walking target.

Wolf guy: He's a walking contradiction with a fetish for wolves. He has pointy ears coupled with a smug face that makes him look like a demon, plus he heals from any wound no matter how severe, yet nobody seems to question this. He spends his spare time being a werewolf and tearing up the city without anyone seeing him.
He's a scrawny loner that gets bullied without fighting back at all; he just bottles everything up. I wasn't really bullied much as a kid, but I felt like I could relate to this part, and his character was probably intended so that people could relate to it. He typically hurts/kills/shames his opponents by simply taking their beating. Yeah, I bet scrawny loners around the globe would really like that.
The problem with his character is that he isn't consistent. He's an angsty teen going through some "changes" that confuse his emotions. He acts superior to his peers and thinks he's king of the world. It's not HIM that's wrong, it must be EVERYONE ELSE. He wishes he could just die because the human race is so pathetic, boo hoo. He's a mixture between someone that's a loner due to not fitting in and someone that's a loner due to finding everyone inferior, which is kinda like wanting companions vs. wanting loneliness. Contradiction alert.

Haguro: You think he'll be wolfy's rival or something since he looks demonic, but I guess he's just some disposable trash. I didn't read far enough to find out, but it seems like he's an average human with nothing special. No contest.

Slut: She seems turned on by violence and arrogance. Not much else to say about her.

Enjoyment - It leaves you on the edge of your seat wondering when something meaningful will happen. When you realize there's nothing, you feel a bit betrayed.

Overall - It's unfortunate that the artist wasted his time on this piece. They should remove the hentai, make the rape scenes just implied if they're really necessary; make the character either calm or moody, not both; add a goddamn story.
If you insist on checking this out, please know when to stop.

WARNING: THIS MANGA IS NOT FOR THE FAINT OF HEART.Lots of BLOOD,GORE, NUDITY & SEX. The last to dont occur too frequently.

Story: Right now i'm in the 54h chapter and i still don't know what the whole plot is going to lead to. No leads have been left to know where it s heading and i dont know if it will ever head there. For now,we are wailking with the lead character,inugami,who is a werewolf,as he attends a high school full of thugs and his encounter with his teacher(who is smokin hot).

Art: This is one of the BEST looking mangas out there. the characters are well drawn and well detailed.

Characters: Here it has a few down sides. Would have loved to give it an 8 or even a 9 but only some of the characters get the development they deserve.

Enjoyment:It's really violent. And watching inugami play around with the thugs at school is pretty amusing. Especially since he just cant die.

Overall: If not for a seemingly poor plot and some plain char,This would be one of the BEST adult mangas out there

I think this manga are only for mature readers because there's quite a lot of rape and gore which might be too much to some people.

I give it a 9 overall because of the unique art style and the story because it's really different from the other manga that I've read in the past.
I've never read a manga that's as dark as this.
From the gore to the rape and drug abuse.

I wouldn't say this manga deeply affected me on a spiritual level or anything (lmao) but its worth taking a look at. The main character, at first, seems like your average antihero. He saves a woman in the park late one night and leaves a shocking impression by getting beaten up and then disappearing. Next day, bam, he shows up as a transfer student at the school where she is a teacher. 5/5 cliché so far? I thought so too. But as you progress through the chapters, the plot thickens and some intriguing characters appears.

Overall: this is a psychological thriller with a satisfactory plot. My guess is you'll like this one if you're into deeply disturbed villains. There is profanity (and lots and lots of blood, rape, sex, decapitation, etc)

Clarification: English is my second lenguage so I apology for the grammar, the spelling and/or the incorrect use of words.
First of all, this is not going to be a thorough review but more of a rant. Oh, and unexplicit spoilers ahead.
Violent dark story? Graphic depictions of horrible acts that make you want to look away? I have absolutely no problem with any of that, as some of my favorite manga include Berserk and Gantz.
So why is the biggest problem of this manga the graphic violence? Have I suddenly become a "snowflake"? Simpler thant that, it's bad done.
But I'm referring to something very specific here.
When you have a character brutally raped you are going to cause me an emotional pain of some degree. And I'm okay with that, as if I'm reading any story is because I expect to be emotionally invested and if something like that happens I'm gonna be hurt. Nothing wrong there.
Is the rape coherent with the world of the manga? Yes, it doesn't feel out of place and it's what you would expect from the grim reality of this fiction.
Is the rape motivated by something other than the tone of the story? Yes, it moves the main character to the final stage of the story by giving him a motivation, which is decent enough, although I wouldn't say necessary and some would even consider it untasteful/cheap to use it as a plot mechanism, but to me if it feels as if it was unavoidable in the world of the story, then it's okay.
Now this manga makes the rape very explicit. I have no problem with that either, if the mangaka decided to depict it that way I'm okay with it. There are other ways to make me understand much more closely what the characters are feeling, but I accept that explicity is the path you chose.
So everything is perfect by my book. You've made your point in depicting it the way you wanted it, the horryfing nature of what is happening is engraved in my mind and it served a purpose on the narrative.
But then you go on, and you go on, and you keep on going and I can't help but wonder, is this even "mature" content anymore or am I seeing porn?
Yes, at one point it became so unnecessary that it made me feel as if a rape scene was porn. "Am I supossed to be jerking off?" Is what I thought. You could say the artists were trying to be truthful to what was going on, but if that was the case the perspective was very wrong.
"Mature" my fucking ass. Rape can usually serve to stablish or reinforce the tone of a story or as a plot device, the specific case I'm referring to accomplishes the second (the tone needs no reinforcement at this point), as I previously said. But why does it keep on going for five chapters? For what fucking purpose?
Being disgusting is besides the point, it's rape, it's supossed to be. But it's badly written, and what becomes disgusting is not only the act depicted in the manga, but the manga itself.
Rape is not necessarily deep nor mature, and if you think otherwise you're very clearly immature.

well, this manga it's really bloody, violent, and for mature people. I like it, it is kinda dark, it could be a little more amusing for the enjoyment, but it's really good the way it is.


>the story it was very unique( the integration of a warewolf in a human schooll, and beacause he is such a "alfa male", he gets in a lots of fights).

>the "smut things" going there are kinda psychotic.

> the art was very realistic, and unique ( the characters doesn't have the traditional " big eyes", however they were very deep and full of emotions), i like that a lot.

>overrall: every thing here is very interesting and kinda realistic( because sometimes in schooll it's getting really dangerous : the bullies, the sexual harasement, the scary thug) . i love it
