Viz's translated dialogue makes for smooth reading, with a conversational style and the occasional clever quip. Sadly, the dialogue isn't as enjoyable as it could be for the visual reasons mentioned above. The sound effects are all changed to English in the artwork, eliminating any traces of Japanese, but this results in some rather goofy "sounds" like "attack," "defend," "leap" and "land." Admittedly, the Japanese lexicon of comic book sound effects is more varied than the American one, but translating sounds into verbs is rather clunky compared to simply substituting an onomatopoeic word. A better solution--already adopted by some publishers--is to provide a translation in small print next to the Japanese sound effects. Certainly it would save the trouble of editing every single effect.

Since this is only the beginning of Descendants of Darkness, there's always the hope that the manga improves as it plunges further into the story. Tsuzuki and Hisoka ought to spend more time talking to each other (and comforting each other) about their troubles, but in this first volume they don't; the premise of the manga could yield some intriguing supernatural-detective exploits, but here it doesn't. There's also the issue of the directionally confused panel layouts, which could easily be resolved by the manga-ka getting some more practice. Ultimately, Descendants of Darkness is lacking in some departments, but with a little brushing up, it could become an adventurous and possibly even romantic tour into the land of the dead.
