Kaine

 

Finally,.... finally you're able to find a report about this great manga! I really love this one, and you can say, it's my absolute favourite manga! However, Kaine is only one manga (it's like boys next door), and only has 110 pages! But the plot that are told is so good and so much too... that you can fill 3 or 4 volumes, I think! Kaine is made by Kaori Yuuki, and so the characters are really great and the pictures are really enough to buy this one! 

But you're not able to understand Kaine, without reading it. You really have to read the whole 110 pages to understand the brillance of this manga! It tooks me nearly 2 hours to read it, because it's a lot of text, and the story is totally confused! If you think, you know everything, Kaori Yuuki reject all of it, and bring it to another point! So it's a story you have to think 2 times, to understand it, and that's why I say, this is the manga with the best plot, I ever read!

So I kann recommend this volume to everybody, who like Kaori Yuuki, great and confused stories and who like great artworks....

To sum the plot is really impossible, but I try to do my best...

The band Endorphine is the most popular group in the country and their singer Kaine is so popular, that their are many fans whoemulate him and dye their hair red. The music on the other side is in the news a long time, because many accidents happens, because of consumption the music. The fans become depressiv and commited suicide. 

Soon after Kaine and his twinbtbrother have an accident, which only one of them survive. Kaines brother awakens in the hospital and has to recognize, that his brother is dead, and he is Kaine now. They changes the roles, he shall be the dead singer, because the music company don't want to loose their best "money maker".

Die, the guitar player of Endorphine and later his only friend, is the only one, who sees that this guy isn't Kaine after all. When "Kaine" find out, that the car accident, where his brother died, wasn't an accident, he tries to play the role, to find out, who killed his brother. And he has to recognize how the real Kaine really was. He wasn't the great and popular person, he admired, it's more the opposit...

 

The events become more and more critical. More and more girls where found dead and Kaine and Die found out, that the music company isn't that innocent. The music of Endorphine are the reasons, why the girls kills themselves, because they test something (such things for the brain!). 

At the same moment the manager of the group plan the dead of Kaine. He shall die like an idol. So she want to prevent Die from going to the last day of their tour. He appears in the last moment, to save Kaine. And then the whole story somersault. All the questions the reader has are answered, and The end of the story is really amazing... 

Who is really the survivor of the car accident? Is it really Kaines twin, who changes his idenity with Kaine or maybe is it Kaine himself in the end? And what does Die knows in the end? 

 

The questions gain the ascendancy and till the last page you're not sure, if it's Kaine himself or maybe only his twinbrother. Every hint is importent and when you think you found out, the mangaka rejects everything and you can start again to think about the story. 

It's clear that the manga has some changes which are difficult to understand, but that's why this plot and story is such great!

In the end, I had the feeling I read much more mangas, than only 100 pages, because it's really amazing to put such a story on 100 pages!
