I had some trepidation about checking out the first three volumes of this series from my local library when I saw the cover tag, "From the creator of Deadman Wonderland," since that series, while intriguing, had a storyline that was too much of a hot mess for me. Fortunately, the artist is the creator in question, and this series has a different writer who is very much in control of his story. Or I should say stories, as this Livingstone consists of many self-contained stories that build together to flesh out the central concept and its consequences. An odd couple pair of agents (one is uptight and overthinks everything, the other speaks bluntly and acts spontaneously) investigate a new case in each episode and provide a through line that gradually grows into its own story. Livingstone is a little bit X-Files and Twilight Zone, but mostly reminds me of [b:Ikigami: The Ultimate Limit, Volume 1|4036916|Ikigami The Ultimate Limit, Volume 1 (Ikigami, #1)|Motoro Mase|https://images.gr-assets.com/books/1387173146s/4036916.jpg|4083523] in its structure. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
Onderdeel van de reeks(en)Livingstone (1)
90% of our lives are determined by our fate, and our fates are determined by our 'souls.' But every now and then, something goes wrong and the souls of those who have met an untimely fate also pollute their environs, drawing more souls into a vicious circle of ill fate. Sakurai and Amano are an odd-couple team who have been hired to deal with the problems that arise from these tainted souls and have been tasked with finding those who are heading to an early grave to either prevent them from dying or collect their livingstones before they do further damage.

The story is clear and easy to understand as is the art, although some of the images are quite disturbing. Most of the people the MCs come in contact with are not sympathetic characters.
Would maybe pick up the next in the series. ( )
