    Yuragi-sou no Yuuna-san

    This is not the manga to read for plot. The "plot" that does exist, namely getting Yunna to pass on from her regrets as a ghost, only pops up here and there until chapter 120 before being forgotten entirely, only to be bludgeoned in the climax to force an ending. Nor is it a good ending either...

    Daredemo Dakeru Kimi ga Suki - Vol. 2 Ch. 13 - Do You Remember?

    Most one stars are from losers who seethe when their trad waifu does anything more than handholding, me initially too. As I read more the manga's charm showed, its rough art style and mature handling of sex being a treat

    Nisekoi: False Love - Vol. 25 Ch. 229 - Promise

    Like, I get that Chitoge and Raku finally got together. I was  really hoping for a harem ending but forced between the two, Chitoge ending was a bold decision that the mangaka earned with his story. It was always going to be hard overcoming the initial love interest between Raku and Onodera. But...

    Nisekoi: False Love - Vol. 19 Ch. 162 - Choice

    -Guh I have never cringed so hard when reading as when Ojou said "best friend." Please spare me!

    Zero no Tsukaima

    Very mid. There was no isekai tag since there's no reincarnation but its still fantasy, like isekai. Immediately have an indecisive MC who's only advantage in the fantasy world is his knowledge of a few key weapons in the fantasy world and being a "prophesied one." The story has poor pacing. At...

    Dorobou-chan

    Its average, I've seen this fluff comedy some times before. This manga didn't introduce anything new and really was never clear on what thieving even meant. Ended average too, with some confession and then a status quo thing, without much having changed. 5/10

    Asebi and Adventurers of Sky World - Vol. 10 Ch. 57 - Life and willpower

    Damn this was a good way to kill Gram off. Its obvious from how he was presented that Gram deserved to die in some way. It also seemed he would die on the trip since otherwise his past crimes would have been for nothing. But to do so with a final shit before death, damn that's epic! Sad that...

    The Voynich Hotel

    I don't get it? Fifteen chapters in and each chapter is too small to establish much plot at all. How this has a rating of 9 is beyond me

    Asebi and Adventurers of Sky World - Vol. 10 Ch. 59 - Asebi and...

    What a great series for the first 40 chapters. It began with dragon fish and a steampunk skyworld but gradually transformed into mecha. The arcs were well done, with Gram being the only problem. Since he stopped showing up past chapter 20 the manga got better still, peaking at the fight scene...

    Witch Craft Works

    Came in looking for some shounen romance, got an enormous world of magic instead. I have yet to see manga where plot progression is so over the place. The plot works best with its large arcs spanning 10+ chapters, where full stories are told through immense action and magic. These were a...

    Girls' Last Tour

    Resonated with me much more than any other manga I read before, it just felt so raw and genuine. No doubt a work of literature with a message being conveyed, although exactly the message I don't know. I'll be seeking the English volumes on my bookshelf ASAP because damn is this good work. 10/10.

    Shinobuna! Chiyo-chan

    Fine enough, but it felt the premise was limited from the start. Ultimately the shinobi premise proved a hindrance to the slice-of-life story rather than an adder, the ninja scenes feeling incomplete. Drama in this felt forced too, more so than other works I've read. Despite this, the artwork...

    Kawaikereba Hentai demo Suki ni Natte Kuremasu ka?

    For a light novel adaptation it ended fine, the mystery was finally solved and a status-quo ending leaves it difficult to actively dislike the manga. While every character barring MC here was a complete degenerate, some were more degenrate than others. And different tastes too, a harem ending...

    Witch Craft Works - Vol. 6 Ch. 24 - Takamiya-kun vs. Weekend (Part 7)

    Part seven and still no end in sight. I'm reading a fever dream and I want more!

    Umi no Misaki

    A very good piece of the harem genre. The story begins generic, with Nagi, a self-insert, being thrust into a position of power over a harem of beauties. The art style changes noticeably by chapter 50, adopting a chibi-style that fits better with the lighthearted nature the manga goes for most...

    Mahoromatic

    It has sci-fi, it has romance, it has a coherent plot that, while meek at times, is always leading to the climax of the story. And damn does it have an ending, what's there not to love about this other than the art, which is regrettably weak. 8/10

    Shurabara!

    A small harem story where three girls "fake" confess to MC, only to actually develop feelings for him. It actually works better as just one volume because when the inevitable decision finally comes one doesn't feel bad for the other girls. It could have used a better ending and in general the...

    Gou-dere Bishoujo Nagihara Sora

    ...I've seen respectable manga go on for longer than this drek. The biggest problem was just how stupid it was. The entire manga is a fever dream rather than a cohesive story. It was incredibly silly, although this at times did lead to it being funny. Likewise, it teases character development...

    Sankarea

    What a great manga, at least until the end. The start is weak, where in a typical fashion the pampered princess falls for the first guy she sees. This is annoying to keep seeing, but fortunately she dies and becomes a zombie quickly so the main story can begin. This manga had a great mix of...

    Shikimori's Not Just a Cutie

    By the end of this one is left with a feeling of disappointment. No doubt the manga began strong, with Shikimori's confiedence contrasting with Izumi's timid nature. The artwork further reinforced this, clearly establishing Shikimori as the "masculine" part of the relationship. This got tiring...
