4.0 out of 5 stars Not Really a Shoujo, December 25, 2005

This review is from: Cipher: VOL 01 (Cipher (Graphic Novels)) (Paperback)

This was a very good manga with a few twists. It started off with the ever happy main character who just happened to find out something that was hidden from most of the world for two years.Anyway in this book there is a pair of twins named Siva and Cipher. A girl at their school discovers that something is strange when "Siva" saves her from a potential fight, after which she goes back to his apartment. When she finds out that the brothers take turns going to work and school under the name 'Siva' she asks the reason only to find that the brothers won't tell her. Next they make a bet with her in which if she can tell them apart after a two week peroid in which she lives with them, the brothers agree they will tell the reason why they switch off. The brothers are not all that they appear to be and this manga really teaches something about trusting.


At first I was not sure that I would like this manga, but came to find out that it was a good manga.The reason that i did not like think that I would like it is that the art of the cover for this volume was not all that great in my opion.The reason that I did like it after all was that the manga had a nice story and decent art ojn the inside.Also, the manga did not have a feeling of trying to fit too much on one page. The manga was nicely spaced and drawn.One thing about the brothers that really got me was that several times they say to each other that they are not really as nice as the girl seems to think. Anyway I would say that this is a good book to buy.
