The main aspect that tends to draw in others is the superficial element of the art, being better than the original, to which I have to disagree. Even in this area, it does a poor job as we're told in the original manga that Dohko and Shion were the only survivors of the war, yet there are far more in TLC, thus making it not only a retread of the original, but an inconsistent one. It's mainly just an expansion of the Hades Arc from the original except far less interesting due to prequel syndrome already making it apparent who will live and survive.

The Lost Canvas is usually heralded as being vastly superior in all ways to the original, an opinion I can't understand when the exact opposite is true.įirst, looking at the story, there isn't really much to say.
