AS is magical angsty fucked-up crack. You don't read it for the story (as it can be unfollowable) as much as the characters. It has great characters. Aside from those at camp, we also have Kira, Setsuna's best friend in the whole wide world and SPOILERS. Kira is a playboy, fighter, bastard and a dumb romantic all rolled into one. PS, I love Kira. Then you have the angels, which are awesome and amazing for their interpretations and backstories in that they are the traditional angels but exist in a world of corruption. I love Uriel. I guess there's also the incest deal, which took me some getting used to since it was my first foray into that. Now, I don't even care. The girl characters such as demon princess Kurai as awesome and do things like try and Jesus terrible multiple personality monsters. But most of all you read it because you don't know WTF will happen next? Will Setsuna lose an eye? Will he face a thousand-eyed baby monster with spikes? Will Rosiel stop drugging people with tentacles? WHO KNOWS. I have no idea whether or not I actually sold this, but yeah AS plot is nuts.
