This manhwa is a absolute masterpiece. The art style and character development is what that makes this manhwa so cool. the story is fantastic and hyping. This is the first manhwa that made me just read it continuously. It's just that good. I also don't read or watch something that I have already finished but this manhwa is so good that no matter how many times you read it, you will enjoy the art and find some clues you missed in the previous reading.
10/10 recommendations from me.
Trust me, you will love it in the first read. On the outside it may seem like just like other mangas/manhwa. and that's what I thought when I first looked it up.
once you drive into the solo leveling world, You will forget everything and will just want to read more

Parallel paradise is one of those stories that after few chapters, you start to ask yourself ''why is it not a hentai'', but what makes this manga to deserve such a high note ,in my opinion, is a story itself. After some time I started to skip sex scenes and focus on plot, because it is so entertaining. It begins as a typical isekai, where our hero got pushed by a stange creature from a third floor and gets teleport into a world where he is only living man. There are so many mysteries and every time we got new informations about the world he lives in, another one appears. Just like in ''Elfen lied'', which was made by this autor we got horror, gore but there is also a space for a little bit of dark comedy. It is hard to describe this manga without any spoilers, but if you are a fan of a facinating world and a good story you should definetely read it. Of course if you do not mind sex scenes that appears in almost every chapter.

This is a must read. Not because it's the greatest story ever told or anything like that, but it is simply fascinating. At times it feels like a generic shounen and then at other times it's like going down a deviant art rabbit hole and reading someone turn their bizarre fetish into an epic adventure. On top of this, it's written by Masashi Kishimoto's lesser known twin brother, and I can't help but feel that Masashi really doesn't want any association with a manga like this and yet is forced to.

All of that aside, there was a lot of genuine potential here, if it wasn't axed something really great could have happened. But, the journey is still worth taking. It also has a very unpredictable ending which is maybe a plus??

The story is very short, and this is the problem.
Many characters of the story have characters arcs that have no conclusion, or simply don't have much development. The mangá has 8 short chapters, so, the Mangaká focuses on the main couple, and, it's very good! The comedy is ok, and the story is very fun, but i can't let this problems go. But if the story was longer, or less "complex", I would give an 8 or 9.

The story is pretty fun and the comedy is ok. The characters that are developed are fun, so, i will give to Bra Girl a 7.

Gekkoh; a typical straight-forward revenge story, which would have been just that, if it weren't padded out with uninteresting subplots and needless sexual content.

With the seedy, corrupt, underbelly of the Japanese Yakuza as its main focus; Kyoutarou Higawa is a highschool kid who's caught up in the conflict between his family's clan and other clans. Then one day Kumiko Shizuki, a girl he has never met before arrives to disrupt his life even further; by claiming to be his half-sister, who happens to be out for revenge. So Gekkoh immediately establishes itself as some kind of political drama, of the coalition & conflict within the Yakuza. With action & mystery being the main driving force behind Kumiko's quest for vengeance and even a bit of romance slapped in for good measure. However just because the story of Gekkoh has a lot going on, doesn't mean it has a lot going for it. Instead of trying to instil believability to the numerous plotlines, the mangaka takes the lazy approach to issues like prostitution & incestuous relations. And all that remains is a half-assed, convoluted storyline; with laughably bad dialogue, filling up the poorly presented panels.

This also leads to why the characters don't hold up well, in a positive light. Both main characters fail to have some kind of appeal, in my opinion, because they both come with some of my - maybe even your own - pet peeves. Kyoutarou is downright pathetic, from the way he reacts & interacts with members of the opposite sex, to how he always manages to get his assed handed to him. So with that, Kumiko should come as a breath of fresh air. A strong-willed, capable, female lead. The kind that I like... is what I would say, if the idiot mangaka didn't feel the need to degrade her so incessantly. The unfortunate thing is that both Kyoutarou & Kumiko have their good moments, but those moments are far too sporadic, to leave much of an impact. The side characters are generic in both design and motivation and are only there to give Kyoutarou & Kumiko more to do then just fool around. There are actually some side characters who are given interesting back-stories, but they never seem to be fleshed out beyond the basic requisite.

Kind of like the basic scrawls I find on a page that's supposed to represent the artwork of Gekkoh, which simply can be described as horribly inconsistent. Usually artwork that's rough around the edges can be forgiven, when the mangaka tries to express his/her own unique style, but Gekkoh goes from being alright to just a plain bad at a moment's notice. Also I find it a problem not being able to tell exactly what's going on in a panel, due to how poorly the character's gestures & actions are drawn and maybe you will too

In the end Gekkoh is a manga that leads a lot to be desired. It is by no means a horrid piece of literary tripe, which my largely negative review seems to suggest; I just expected more from it and to think this is the kind of manga, Serika Hirumo was able to produce with well over 10 years of experience. Just shows how little he's developed as an artist & as a storyteller.

With the title you'd think that this Manga will be about Sex and the Supernatural -- it is not. I'd say it will be more on Romantic-Supernatural-Horror.

Art will be okay since pages are in b/w. I cannot really say more about it.

Chapter 1: Fallen Women - The price people pay for beauty. Simple story and a little predictable.

Chapter 2: Rose Colored Happiness - Good twist in the middle but lacking in basis for the ending. Ending felt rushed and kinda confusing.

Chapter 3: Hotaru is Waiting - Light-kinda comedy with a bittersweet ending. Very nicely done (aww, shucks!)

Chapter 4: Shinigami Shiiku - The only chapter with [mild] sex in it. Characters kinda reminded me of Kimi ni Todoke. Probably my favorite chapter since it got a happy ending.

Chapter 5: Transient Future - Had the best story of the bunch and would probably be great as an anime. Unexpected but very satisfying ending.

Glad I stumbled upon this one since it was worth reading.

Recommended to someone looking for a quick horror fix :)

I just re-read this manga last week and it was still amazing, originally the anime came out first for this series. Thing about this series is that the manga and anime are completely different so you don't feel that your going through the same thing on paper all over again.

Unlike the anime, the manga focuses on Yuuichi Tate while the anime focuses on Mai Tokhia. Being a guy I found that I could relate more to the manga then to the anime regardless the anime did bring in good insights to Yuuichi Tate when called upon, it just felt that the anime was more targeted to felmales while the manga was targeted to males.

This story has a wonderful, character development, griping emotionally scenes that'll keep you reading, it's humorous, tasteful ecchi scenes and just a well put together manga, the only thing about this series is that I felt it could of been longer even though it flowed well it could of been at least 10 volumes apposed to 05 volumes it would of probably made it the PERFECT manga.

If you like disappointments and pieces of shits in your life, this is the manga for you and also this is very sad if you encourage people like the main male character Sei.

The dramatic synopsis made me really think I would enjoy this manga. So to that idiot who told me "if it has a good plot, then it's gonna be good, anime or manga without a great plot isn't worth the time." Lemme tell you that reading this shit was a waste of time like you literally have the typical weak and dumb female protagonist named Tsuchida who tries so hard to impress stupid men who she shouldn't give the time of the day to. Both men in her life don't respect her at all. Her precious ex Hagio is a womanizer and she literally knows "he has other women, is a womanizer, and not a nice person but I like the way he makes me feel. That emotionless look in his face scares me but shortly after lately he smiles, he's always smiling." This doesn't even make any sense whatsoever lol.

Her ex is cold hearted and her man that lives with her mooches off of her and he depends on her like a man child. He has no motivation at all, no plan B, doesn't help support her or offer to do shit for her but has the nerve to complain about Hingis as if he pays the bills. He's literally a loser and the type of guy a parent doesn't want their daughter to be put with at all, he's just extremely annoying and fucking pathetic. When they get back together, he goes back to ordering her around as if nothing happened. She always have to do things for the guy sooo... her broke ass ex couldn't pay for the hotel, so she..tight on money paid to buy him beer and that hotel just to fuck him, cheat on her loser current bf until the same loser breaks up with him because he "wants her to have a happier life and a man who'll treat her right."

When she breaks up...ofc the dumb broad goes back to her womanizer ex who finally says "I only liked you when you had a boyfriend, maybe we should split up." Now her friend warned her so many times but being the pathetic shell of a woman she is, out of money, she made sacrifices for men...finally invites her last bf that just left Sei to "come back home so she can cook him something good," in what's looks like they're going back to the same routine of him be a controlling loser and failed musician. Saying things like "how long do I have to wait to eat" I'm sorry but maybe your punk ass should idk help out, get a stable job, learn how to cook instead of being a whiny adult child and crying all the time, you're a grown man. She's just stupid honestly lol.

This manga was awful and I'm gonna gouge my eyes out. You know when you see something so good and you have a mental orgasm where you meet Jesus and you step foot into Nirvana for a brief period? This gave me the opposite effect. As if the whole world ended and I was left alone staring into the abyss and the abyss stared back and yelled "cuck!" at me.

I honestly feel so disgusted having read what Buronson dares to call writing. His writing is idealistic, nationalistic, and borders on the toxic masculinity men can't get rid of and it's all combined in one series with characters who all have decent backstories, but can't remain consistent because Buronson likes waving his pen around like a douchebag frat guy at a keg party waving his dick around. There is so much wrong with this series that I can say I'm glad it went out of print so less innocent people will find this series, because no one deserves to suffer reading this hellbook.

Even though I'm a guy, I still enjoy this manga.

The best thing in Desire Climax is the art, it is simply amazing. The heroine is very pretty, it's definitely my type of girl, which is the main reason for a guy to read shoujo manga. For the male character part, they are all looking handsome.

Character development is also amazing, the author wrote the manga in a way that makes me become emotional with each characters and their interactions.

For the first part of this manga, thing goes smoothly and peacefully, in a way, it introduces all characters. As for second part, it reaches a climax which is the best part of the manga.

So overall I recommend guys who over 18 reading it, the reason is that the content is mature.
