Raidou Kuzunoha vs The Lonely Marebito

unknown · 12-12-2009, 09:29 PM

Just found out about it today, it's a free online Raidou manga on Famitsu's official site.

The story takes place shortly after the events of King Abaddon, no major spoilers so no worries if you haven't played the game or the first one. Overall it has some pretty awesome art, stays true to the games, and is one of the better SMT manga out there.

Never thought I'd see translations for this, considering it isn't as well love as the Persona titles. But sure enough, here it is with one.

I'm very glad to see that Nagi has indeed pretty much become Raidou's apprentice too.

Nagi was adorable when she asked Raidou to praise her.

What's better is that Raidou is clueless to how he should of gone about it with her as well.

It makes me want another game though after having read it all the other day, so I hope Atlus won't let it sit around, given it has so much going for it with it's great cast of characters and the world they are set in.

I could see a PSP Raidou game being made sometime in the future, hopefully soon.

Gotta say, I really like this manga. Looking forward to new translated installments.

There's just something so awesome about the Raidou world. I just can't look away from it!

We need SH PSP before it...

The story sure gets more interesting each chapter.
This is more reminiscent to Soulless Army than King Abaddon.

Dunno if you guys have been keeping up with the RAWs, but this manga is coming to an end, and I was pretty surprised by how much #### has hit the fan in what I thought was just a side story. Seriously even God showed up and he hasn't appeared since SMT II. Though I'm assuming this is because Raidou is a prequel.

Also who is this demon? I've never seen her before but my guess is, she's a high ranking Goddess lol, I want to say it's Izanami, but I thought she would look like a pissed off Zombie. She gives Raidou a sword, cause the end of the world demon broke his Masamune

My Japanese is pretty crappy, but I can read enough to know that her first line there is "My name is Ame-no-Ohabari," which is one of the names of Susano-o's legendary sword. So she seems to be the personification of the sword she gives him.

Ah, that makes sense, thanks for the translation Inzaghi!

Do you guys at Atlus keep up with the Raidou manga?
