An interesting tale of an alternate reality in the 1920's where devils and demons run amok and are hunted by the brothers and sisters of the Magdalene Order. The main character, Rosette, is accompanied by a tame demon named Chrono on her adventures and all sorts of wackiness ensues. I really like this one, and the anime version does the manga justice. The action is pretty frenetic and gets difficult to follow at some points, but overall the manga is a good read. Chrono-Crusade 1 centers around Christian religion, but its actual themes are much more wide-reaching. The main character is Sister Rosette, part of an order of nuns. This (entirely fictional) Order uses heavy weapons and explosive holy water ammo to quell and exorcise demons. Rosette's "side-kick", the other main character, is Chrono. He is a demon, voluntarily bound to serve her. They make for a very interesting and dynamic duo. The first part of the volume establishes what a trouble-maker Rosette is. The rest of manga focuses on their mission, which is to rescue an angel from a demon-summoner. The whole thing is kind of a fun romp. They don't go too heavy on the religion but Rosette has a strong live-life-to-the-fullest motto which really comes through in the manga. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
America in the Roaring 20s. On the surface, it's a positive, peaceful time after the violence of the Great War. But lurking in the shadows is a dark element ready to snatch that peace away. Sister Rosette Christopher, an exorcist working as a part of the Magdala Order, has a duty to fight the demons which appear and cause destruction. But along with her companion Chrono, she usually ends up causing more destruction than the demons themselves! On one particular mission, they meet a young girl with a beautiful voice named Azmaria, who is being targeted by her own stepfather. As Rosette and Chrno work to save her, more is revealed about the relationship between them. There is more to these two than meets the eye. No se han encontrado descripciones de biblioteca. |

The premise is good and the story is easy to follow, though the action tends to go from 0 to 60 on a dime then 60 to 0 just as fast.
Worth a read.
