Dark Gathering unlike most other horror manga starts off very strong and keeps the reader on their toes through each chapter. There's rarely any big cliffhangers at the end of each chapter as is the trope with most manga these days and each chapter averaging 40 pages leads to a satisfactory conclusion but still wants one to keep reading that next chapter. Dark Gathering has good art and I mean VERY good art combined with grotesque horror that sends chills down your spine. The ghosts are pretty well designed. Most of the stronger ghosts have their own backstory so you can kinda sympathize with howthey turned into such monstrosity. The manga calls them "ghosts" but they are basically man eating monsters that will kill anyone who encounters them. The story is pretty simple. The plot revolves around our main trio who have to go around hunting ghosts and capture them in order to defeat a certain ghost and free our main characters from their curse. The characters seem well written so far. Give the frst 4 chapters of the manga a try. I don't really write reviews but seeing that there's not many reviews I am compelled to write one for this gem.
