Glaucos · review

8 /10

Glaucos is one of those titles that made me lament the fact that only a handful of seinen titles without an anime adaptation are recognised and discussed by the general weeb community. One of these series is undoubtedly Morning Magazine's flagship title Vagabond, but I actually think Glaucos would be very appreciated by the same kind of audience that story enjoys. Fans of series like Mushishi or the Climber will probably also get something out of it. It's a beautifully detailed manga with loads of nuanced facial expressions that takes a meditative look at nature and the sea through the lense of a prodigious free diver,drawing on buddhist and classical mythology to illustrate it's points. While in my opinion the gross negligience of some characters is not appropriately called out to the extent it should be and the pacing gets abrupt at parts, there still is basically nobody I would not recommend Glaucos too. A very engaging, expertly crafted, short series.
