> > Kara no Kyoukai: The Garden of... Ranked #119Popularity #1135Members 17,328 Light NovelType-Moon (Story & Art), Nasu, Kinoko (Story), Takeuchi, Takashi (Art) Add to My List Volumes: /2 Chapters: /10 SynopsisA teenage girl, who possesses the "Mystic Eyes of Death Perception," a supernatural ability that allows the user to see the "death" of everything in existence and kill the object by destroying its "origin." She recently recovered from a two-year coma caused by a traffic accident. Prior to the traffic accident, she originally had two personalities, a male personality named Shiki (織), and the original female personality Shiki (式). Children born into the Ryougi family are generally male and are raised with two personalities, so the male personality is customarily called the "yang" personality, while the female is called the "yin" personality. It is easy to tell which Shiki is speaking at a given time because they both have a distinct style of speaking, most notably that the female Shiki refers to herself with the pronoun watashi (私), while male Shiki refers to himself as ore (俺). After waking from her coma, Shiki discovers that she can no longer feel the male Shiki's presence and assumes that he died because of the accident. She also feels a detachment from her memories before the accident, and while she knows she is Shiki, she does not feel that she is. In the hopes of regaining herself and the "dead" Shiki, she puts on a cold facade that somewhat resembles the male Shiki's and tries to act as the female Shiki did. Touko understands the sense of detachment Shiki feels, but considers the current Shiki a third, new personality.The series is regarded as being set in the same world as another TYPE-MOON series, Tsukihime, with Aoko Aozaki's sister Touko Aozaki being featured in this series and the protagonist of the series, Shiki Ryougi, possessing the same abilities as Tsukihime's protagonist, Shiki Tohno.

Reviews Mar 24, 2015 Have you ever been so elated about a decision that you made which brought you an indescribable elation and great fruition to you? Well, I, for once felt that joy when I opted to read the novel of Kara no Kyoukai (KnK) rather than watching the movie series first. Right after I read the novel, I watched the films (obviously, the animation just blew me away) and then the thought came to me that if I had watched the films first, then I could not have understood almost the entire story behind each and every incident that occurred in that world. Story & Storytelling (9/10): ... Aug 5, 2021 Garden of Sinners is on my top 10 best novels list of all time. Let me explain Story, Characters, and Enjoyment: 10/10 The story is extremely great, and the dark atmosphere is there. It focuses on the journey of our main character, Ryougi Shiki, who is a broken woman, and also a crazy sociopath who loves to kill and has no one but herself. She has a unique ability called "Mystic Eyes of Death Perception", which allows her to see the lines of death of all things. She got it after trying to kill herself, but failed. After she got out of the hospital, she starts to ... Nov 18, 2022 ***this is a mixed review for the manga/series/movies*** I remember reading this online way back when! This was released first independently and then when it gained popular attraction it was released by kodansha - which really brought this writer to center stage, and helped with the release of fate/zero later on. Both series are really great imo but GoS is goat. I actually had not watched the series (and I still have not watched all of fate/zero series either), so watching this as an adult was both nostalgic but also really engaging. It is way more mature than I remember, so I think I took much ... Recommendations - "Fushigi" Toriatsukaimasu: Tsukumodou Kottouten2 Users
