Plot Summary: This was a complicated, yet beautifully intricate story of two sisters who got involved in a battle for humanity. A religious war between the Catholics and Orthodox had begun. The end goal is to find out the real truth behind Jesus Christ. People named Qwasers have powers that needs to charge by sucking women's breast(s). What they draw out of suckling is something called soma. A type of strength giving force; mother's milk I guess?

Not all Qwasers are "good" or "evil". Maybe misunderstood or extremists is the better term. Seikon no Qwaser had so many betrayals that you will second guess who is on what side. Or, if there is even a side at all.

Review: This manga was great. The romance between the characters was a little frustrating, but worth the wait. Even the side characters' relationship developments had to work for their love interest. I don't usually give the plot away and I still won't now, hoever, if someone asks nicely, I may put it on my blog (or vlog), My Animanga Cray Show where I discuss the chapters or episodes of my usual genres.

I have read in the comment section (on the site that I read the mangas on) that my fellow otakus were lost. That's why I say Seikon is complicated. But, I will break it down, but sgsin, only if asked. Seikon no Qwaser is well worth the time. I recommend you go slow as soon as you get lost. 

Opinion: I didn't know this manga had an anime until I was surfing for a pic.As I was reading Seikon, I kept thinking that this should have been an anime too. The storyline, however, is so tricky and unbelievable that I understood why some readers got lost. That is not including the amount of adult, ecchi, romantic, yuri, content included. 

Have you ever watched a show called CrashBox on HBO? They had a segment on the 15 minute show called Distraction News. In this segment ,they told a fact while a shit load of random things popped up all over the screen while she was talking. At the end of her lecture, they asked a series of questions to see how distracted you were. This manga used breast, violence, and rape, sex, S&M, etc as distractors, thus preventing you from following along with the story. Don't fall for it! The story is good!

It was also extremely religious and "historical" (<= depending on which way your beliefs lean). Giving up any more than this would give the twists, secrets, and surprises away. It is well worth the time invested though.

Rating: Everything about this manga rates high for me. Storyline, character development and profile, its genres levels, and illustrations. In terms of originality, it may have been done before, but I haven't seen it. This ended up being one of my favs, (Kaikan Phrase being my #1) so I hope that the anime doesn't disappoint. 

I give this manga 9 soma drained titties out of 10. You won't feel bad wasting your time on this one

breastmilk: Some animangas have lactating women, This is means that when she gets her breast sucked, milk will squirt, or leak...depending on the author and situation.

As always, I do not own this image! Also, the pic is from the anime, not the manga...
