    Tomo-chan wa Onna no ko!

    Just found this series. I love it! This and Mousou Telepathy have totally sold me on the 4-koma format. :D

    Mousou Telepathy

    Just found this thanks to another user recommending this in the Takamori-kun wa damarasetai Mangadex forum. That series just started, so it's early days to be calling it weak and derivative of Mousou Telepathy. So I'll just call it derivative for now and hold off some judgment for later. :P...

    Takamori-kun wo Damarasetai!!

    Yeah, I hadn't heard of Mousou Telepathy until Mykatokujira mentioned it above, so the central conceit sounded new to me. But the way it's gone so far, it's been a one-note joke. :( There's a lot of other potential ways for Minamikawa to get outwardly inexplicably embarassed by Takamori's...

    Keikenzumi na Kimi to, Keiken Zero na Ore ga, Otsukiai Suru Hanashi

    Within the confines of the characters as written, I guess I can see the MMC as a fallible dude who wants to be the good guy. FMC as misunderstood good gal with her own human struggles, also okay. The Olympic-level mental gymnastics required to shoehorn the series' central conceit really strains...

    Saikyou Yuusha Party wa Ai ga Shiritai

    So... This is what it feels like to vent the built up irritation of enduring a hundred copycat isekai stories. XD Absolutely deranged, and I love it.

    Obokoi Majo wa Majiwaritai!

    Sooo confused what the commercially viable target demographic of this manga is. The art style, atmospheric panels with little to no dialogue -- all feels like an arthouse graphic novel. But the topic is a YA (very Y?) coming of age story. But again, would a YA's parents be OK with their kid...

    Hanazono-sanchi no Futago-chan

    I realize any comments section is not a good candidate for thoughtful discussion, all the more so for many anime/manga comment sections. :p But I want to put in a good word for Hanazono-sanchi. Just finished chapter 54 (had to look it up outside of Mangadex :( ), and the MC and another...

    Evolution: Road to Space Monster

    "You write what you know." It's what you get in an industry of young adults writing for an adolescent audience that endlessly demands MORE of the SAME. You get writers whose desire to produce has outpaced their life experiences, and they end up rehashing what little they know (witness the...

    Evolution: Road to Space Monster

    Sooo like the majority of shounen manga..? :P Korean manhwa sometimes are refreshing b/c they break away from highly repetitive Japanese manga tropes, but because the Korean industry is also super competitive it's also developed its own related set of overused tropes b/c that's what all the...

    Moto Kyuutei Renkinjutsushi no Watashi, Henkyou de Nonbiri Ryouchi Kaitaku Hajimemasu!

    I mean, you're talking about the competitive industry of free self-published light novels. The most readily available talent pool consists in the main of people probably in their teens to maaaybe 30s, with enough dis/incentives to push them toward spending many unpaid hours writing stories for...

    Yuusha Party wo Oidasareta Kiyoubinbou ~Party Jijou de Fuyojitsushi wo Yatteita Kenshi, Bannou e to Itaru~

    Man, isekai are such a guilty pleasure for me. This is just me rambling about the "weak MC kicked from party becomes OP" trope, so feel free to skip this comment. :D Many mangaka and editors IRL and in mangaka-MC stories have commented that the authors' real life experiences are what inform and...
