Noah's Notes · review

★
Top reader May 7, 2018 · 3 min read
6 /10

Unfortunately this series has been cancelled as of a week ago, and it's only translated up to chapter 7. This review still reflects my thoughts on the series up to that point, but obviously can't include up to its final chapter. I've just read the translation for chapter 5 of this series and thought I'd give my take on it so far. Scores will generally be low because this is a preliminary review. Story: 6/10 The story so far is pretty straightforward, the protagonists are trying to save the world from destruction. There is a twist though: they know the world will be destroyed in a few years,but not how. They need to figure out how society was originally destroyed by finding clues left by the previous "loop" of people. To make a comparison to a similar manga, Dr. Stone, it's as though the protagonists know that everybody will be turned to stone in a few years, and are trying to figure out how to stop it.

It's all introduced quite fast in chapter 1 and the pace has been kept relatively high for the 5 chapters I've read. So far I've found the premise to be a bit absurd but certainly a change of pace from the typical Jump manga.

Art: 6/10

The art has been decent, but not fantastic so far. If the quality of the art stays the same for the next few chapters I'd bump it up to a 7, since there are a few panels that look quite nice.

Characters: 5/10

At this point in the story there aren't many characters introduced, it's really just Noah and Mirai (the two main characters) that have been followed. I think Noah's character has been done pretty well, and he reminds me of Senkuu from Dr. Stone - Noah is basically Senkuu but interested in history/archaeology instead of science.

Mirai isn't as interesting of a character, at this point her personality is essentially just "airhead who follows Noah" and she's fulfilling the gyaru archetype to a T. I expect this to change somewhat in the coming chapters, but right now she's not a very interesting character.

Enjoyment: 6/10

Though the story requires heavy suspension of disbelief, it is entertaining once you get past its more ridiculous aspects. I find the "edutainment" style of series (like Dr. Stone) to be very enjoyable, and since Noah's Notes seems to be taking a similar approach with history that has made things entertaining.

Overall: 5.75/10

So far the series is okay. Not fantastic by any means, but not bad either. Aside from the characters, the series is above average but certainly not at the level of the latest hits in Jump (ie Dr. Stone, Promised Neverland). It'll be much easier to give an accurate review of the series once about 2 volumes (~15 chapter) are translated, and I'll update my review then if the series survives
