    Arpeggio of Blue Steel

    One of those series I've known about for a long while, tried to get into, and invariably dropped out of disinterest every time.

    Alive

    In contrast to the now ubiquitious isekai self insert slop, here we have an example of the traditional self insert slop. But man some Japanese reaaally have an inferiority complex don't they.

    Akuma Nisei

    Nice, relaxed, offbeat mood and vibes. Good little series.

    Hope You're Happy, Lemon - Ch. 63

    This is the problem with writing backwards. I'd bet my life the author wrote the premise first and then had to come up with the reason much later. The author was going to have to write this moment eventually. They didn't pull it off. It felt like it had no weight.

    Sesesese! ~Mezase Hatsu H! Doutei Joshi no Tokimeki Daisakusen~ - Vol. 3 Ch. 21 - Vs. Me

    I don't know that that's the case, it feels like a very self-contained story based around one character's singular arc, and all their other works have been short too. I mean maybe it was cancelled, but I think it was intended to be brief from the start. Not every series benefits from being...

    Hope You're Happy, Lemon - Ch. 59

    I feel like the author changed their mind halfway through and retconned what happened. Maybe out of fear Lemon would come off as unsympathetic? This doesn't really line up with how they reacted at the start. The beginning is pretty dishonest now and a fair bit of the drama has been sucked out of it.

    Beautiful Place - Vol. 3 Ch. 14 - Authorized Investigation (1)

    Wish they weren't there but he's probably rushed af. Anyway thanks for the chapter.

    Luna Knight - Vol. 1 Ch. 4 - The Hammer Falls

    Seems to be lacking creative ambition. Description screams "will be axed soon."

    The Ultimate Time Sweeper Mahoroba - Vol. 1 Ch. 1 - Battleship Maharoba

    Naively romantic as it is, this series is quite fascistic in a way. Bizarre how oblivious and disconnected people can be from the atocities they enabled. Well, not really. It makes perfect sense people are like that, it's just laughable.

    Moscow 2160 - Vol. 2 Ch. 8

    Actual good manga: Nausicaa, Freesia, Blame!, Berserk in no particular order. All flawed but great. Parts of the chimera ant arc from hxh. Yeah, not exactly deep cuts, but things that are good usually can't escape some level of acclaim, shocker. Occasionally decent but lesser works include...

    The Fragrant Flower Blooms with Dignity

    It's... a nice effort. Very sincere. But it doesn't read as real. The hand of the author is visible everywhere. You can definitely tell it was written by a woman too. The boys think and act like oversensitive middle school girls. A lot of the interactions are melodramatic or forced. I think, as...

    Nezumi no Hatsukoi - Ch. 45

    I just wish this manga had a shred of reality to it. You'd have to work doubletime to preserve suspension of disbelief with this premise and it just isn't there.

    Ori no Naka - Vol. 1 Ch. 5 - Idiocy and Triumph

    This is one of the greatest comedies ever written and I've barely even skimmed it. Like a dad joke, the humor derives not from the content itself, but the painful groans of everyone else.

    Kyoshinki Senki - Vol. 1 Ch. 1

    Looks like it has an official release and is completed at just three volumes. Not sure if canceled or just intended to be short. Disappointed it didn't run longer it was promising.

    Alice-tachi no Hyouhon - Vol. 1 Ch. 1 - File 1

    I meant the manga. The scanlation's great haha! Thanks for your efforts.

    Alice-tachi no Hyouhon - Vol. 1 Ch. 1 - File 1

    Messy and amateurish, but sincere. I like it.

    Rikujou Jieitai Tokumu Chouhou Kikan - Beppan no Inu

    They look terrible. I wish artists would stop relying on that shit. I'd take a sketchier, less detailed car or building over out of place 3d slop any day. Using it on people like this looks god awful.

    Hope You're Happy, Lemon - Ch. 52

    I just wish prpgress wise we were 50% farther along than we already are at this chapter count. How long can you sustain attention on nothing but light, low stakes misunderstandings? For quite awhile now there hasn't been that much drama and the romance has been pretty stalled. Without those I...

    Hope You're Happy, Lemon - Ch. 52

    Same problem as other series. Dragging things out with filler bs because the author doesn't lnow how to write or progress relationships and will just end the series when they actually commit to one.

    Tengoku Daimakyou - Vol. 12 Ch. 70 - Izukunoeshima II 2

    I don't think the author really understands the function of emotion, which fair enough, most people don't. If you had a being of perfect logic with no emotion or sensation, it wouldn't DO anything. Their purpose is to motivate action. Without emotion, how could Meena even desire to create a new...
