With a novel setting that seems to tear up the template of otherworldly reincarnation tales, “Gokusotsu Kraken” is the unexpected job change story of Kuuma Shimizu, a male student troubled by job-hunting difficulties.
Thrown into another world all of a sudden, he arrives at the female prison, Sea Hell Castle. There, he merges with the sea ruler, the demonic beast Kraken, and gains the mighty power of a squid. His sole purpose is to rescue Princess Zeina, who has been made a death row inmate through a conspiracy. Amid the diverse female prisoners waiting, Kuuma's battle in another world begins.
“Gokusotsu Kraken” is not just any otherworldly fantasy. The battle scenes with prisoners of various races using the supernatural abilities gained from merging with the demonic beast Kraken are overwhelming. Additionally, the psychological warfare with the female prisoners and the drama lurking in their backgrounds add depth to the story. In particular, the protagonist, Kuuma, not just an invincible character but facing difficulties with effort and perseverance, will impress many fans of shonen manga.
One of the charms of this manga is the appearance of various types of girls. Each has their own personality, and their charms are brought out through their interactions with Kuuma. Beast people and elves appear, but the character of Princess Zeina, in particular, leaves a strong impression on readers. From their interactions, a story unfolds with moments of laughter and tears.
The protagonist, Kuuma, is a character full of humanity, loyal but neither too saintly nor too scummy. His inner growth is depicted in the battles fought for survival in another world. His attitude of fighting to reduce the sentences of the prisoners he is in charge of fully demonstrates the appeal of a hero manga.
“Gokusotsu Kraken” distinguishes itself as a unique work among otherworldly reincarnation stories. The world woven with the protagonist's battles with the power of the Kraken, the drama with unique characters, and the heartwarming story of friendship will continue to enchant many fans. “Gokusotsu Kraken,” with its enjoyable battle scenes utilizing special abilities and characters' deep background stories exquisitely fused, is a compelling work that transcends just another otherworldly tale.
