If you ever asked yourself how can a good idea turn to a mediocre work, than this manga will give you the answer. First of all, this manga clearly failed why it got axed. Also it is to mention that it started at the same time (1-2 weeks apart) with Undead Unluck and Mashle, so I will a bit compare these 2 with this one to get a more accurate picture why it failed and got lost in the mediocre world.

Story 4/10
The story started interesting. A well-skilled protagonist, a witch which has to be saved from her curse, so they go on a journey full of monsters, mysteries and interesting world, kinda like Shingeki no Kyojin. However, all that could have been but never did. Shortly after they put their first step outside the world, they immediatly lose against a monster and a short training arc begins and just after that we get our first "rivals". What does that mean? The mangaka just skipped all the world building and adventure vibes, to get us as fast as he can to action, which was immensely underwhelming. And just after the first "rivals" you get (almost) the same twice again...
I really appricated the base aspect of the story and the mysteries behind them, but it got totally sacrifced for the sake of poor, repeating battles. On the other hand the readers of jump get 2 mangas (undead unluck and mashle) which had a much weaker base story but have an incredible and developing action (not to mention that after they started to work on their world building, even the story got outpaced).

Art 4/10
Some of you may think: "Action? Nice! That is what I want!". Of course you get action, but it's so damn unsatisfying due to this weak art style you won't really enjoy it. All the characters look also very similar, while you get maybe 2 or at most 3 monsters (even it is supposed to be, that the world is full of them... So where are they?). So after a little bit you will think even if a new character comes, you saw that and due to the hiatus of the monster you just get the same drawn characters again and again...
However, even if the story and the characterdesigns are repeating, the art itself was not a catastrophe, mediocre for sure, but not bad.
While 2 other competitors (you know which 2 I mean ;) ) have an amazing artwork, which even get better and better...

Character 3/10
Do you remember when I mentioned at the beginning we have a well-skilled protagonist and a cursed witch? Yeah, forget them just like the author did, and make them to some total average boring characters... After a 2-3 chapters, all what was interesting in our 2 mains get totally lost... The third one, which I didn't mention yet, got so strongly unnecessary that you would forget her, if she wouldn't be on every page to standing in the background doing nothing! All the "rivals" are almost the same as our protagonists, this is also the reason why I don't call them villians, because they have similar ideals than our characters. So yeah, this work even miss a true villian (because, as mentioned, you can't even find any monsters).
So you get boring / empty characters which are also copy pasted, because to think of a new character is way too hard... And then jump has mangas where you get a multifaceted characterpool...

Enjoyment 4/10
I had a bit of fun with this work, mostly because I hoped for more/better. More worldbuilding, more tension due to the deadly curse or monsters, more mysteries, better adventures and actions. But at the end it was just disappointing... Some parts was nice, so I wouldn't say it was a total waste of time, but you can spend it better.

Overall 4/10
If this manga maybe started later, where other works ended (like Demon Slayer or The Promised Neverland), and hadn't compete against 2 very strong uprising works, than it may had more time for a better world building, more adventure and mysteries. Especially, because it got replaced with mangas which in my opinion (at least currently) not even as good as this (failed) one. So it's a bit sad, but it had its chance to be much better.
So I would say, don't read it, you have better options. And at the same time I hope that the author comes up with an even better idea (maybe next time with someone else on the art), because I see potential for a good work with a bit more of luck and patience.

I love Isekai stories, and I came across this one drawn in by how interesting the premise was. I've read a ton of isekai before, and I love some of the darker ones when they're done well. Unfortunately, this one is the exact opposite of one that's done well.

Lets be real. There's nothing here other than a poorly-drawn monster slave harem. The attempts at being a darker series are completely overshadowed by the bad art, pitiful characters, and generic storyline. If you want something dark or even slightly satisfying to read, don't read this. All you'll find here is basic fanservice and scenes you've already read before.

Goblin Slayer Gaiden 2: Tsubanari no Daikatana is the manga adaptation of the Novel relating how the party of 6 heroes cleared the dungeon of the Dead near Fortress City 10 years before the main story (Goblin Slayer), all above mentioned is in some spare interludes on the Goblin Slayer Light Novel Volume 8. So you better start reading the Light Novel to then enjoy the complement of this spin off manga.

Now it's unfortunate it got cancelled for quality issues and the mangaka starting his own series, I don't blame them because transcribing characters on art is a problem, but many of the issues were half-assed story details and some shonen style manga that will create many chapters instead of reaching to the main plot inside the dungeon, hell, it was cancelled before reaching 5 of the 6 people on the party.

Characters are well done, the world of Goblin Slayer is not relevant on giving them some special details but it worked fine for them. Enjoyment is lacking because you're getting inside a shonen-style manga and giving way too many details that perhaps are mangaka's freedoms instead of the Goblin Slayer formula working like the other adaptations (Side Story, Main Story).

Overall, they did a fine job on creating a world on Fortress City, but the sequel of this manga (the real adaptation) gets the job better and without dropping in details and direct to the action.

Well, I first watched the Peach Girl series (Anime) and at the end, I kind of wondered what will happen to Sae or Touji, will she go back with Kairi's brother? or will she go and goof some random men like she use to do or will Touji be with Sae? So I researched and found Sae's story:

Story:

The story doesn't have a big connection to the main title "Peach Girl" It's just Sae's life after her friends graduated and she went back to high school because of her lack of credit attendance (mild spoiler). The title says it all "Sae's story" that's the only thing that you'll read on the manga. The story is good, but its lacking in romance, drama and storyline.

Character:
The new Character" Sawatari, Kanji" also called "Saru" by Sae. Development on his character is "kinda of" what I expected: Childhood friend, knows Sae's past, a knight in shining armor, childhood promises. There's nothing special about the character and his actions in the story are predictable. Other new characters are not worth mentioning, they just suck period. On Sae's part, she's just keep getting better and better but her personality didn't change at all. She's still our plain naughty, vicious and arrogant Sae.

Art:
Plain, Clean, viewable, readable. The characters are drawn properly, not rushed.

Enjoyment:
It was fun while it lasted, I just hope they added more content to it. I want moar! :(

----------------------------------------------
I recommend this manga to all of you who finished reading/watching Peach Girl. I know everyone who read/watched Peach girl hated Sae at first and loved her at the end if your curious what happens next. Here's your next volume to read.

WARNING: IF YOU HAVEN'T READ/WATCHED "PEACH GIRL" DON'T READ THIS!!! Read the prequel first

i read this manga on a whim when looking for a manga with good art and i must say i was quite pleased with it .

it's about a yakuza boss that falls in love with her guard , the story even though it was fairly brief was quite enjoyable although if it was along manga with many plot lines it would have been better , it's your typical romance shoujo manga really with all the bishounen male characters we all know and love .

the art was quite enjoyable i gave it a 9 although it didn't fully capture the emotions of the characters .

overall i gave this manga an 8 it's a very well put manga , although it doesn't bring anything new to the shoujo genre it's still very cute and enjoyable , just one of these light heated manga's that will make you smile .

i understand this manga is a bit hard to find but you can read it on otaku works .

Usually, when I see manga published before I was born (pre-1995) I run a mile. Usually because the art is pretty damn rubbish (I'm a massive art freak. I love beautifully drawn manga), and I don't get any contextual references... But for some reason, I started reading this manga, and i'm so glad I did.
Despite its obvious lack of beautiful art, the story so far (up to chpt.14) has been page turning. I literally couldn't stop reading until my eyes felt like they were going to fall out. The two main characters have such amazing and captivating personalities, who don't seem to be the usual uke/seme roles.
The manga contains the perfect mix of comedy, drama and enthralling plot, plus the gradual, but obvious transition of Friends> BFFs> Bromance> Boyhood crush> Something more... is so cute and perfect. I'd recommend it for anyone and everyone, even if shounen-ai isn't your thing.

This manga isn't very well known, so if you stumble upon this then I'm glad to know other people are either interested in it or are currently reading it.

(This is Shoujo Ai, meaning it contains light lesbian-related contents, so read at your own risk if you don't like those kind of things)

Hero-San (as I'll be shortening it for the sake of saving time) is cute, adorable and, most importantly, enjoyable. The two main characters, Honey Trap and Rabid Rabbit (known as Hayate) are looking to team up for justice and to take out the evil organization known as Antinoid. They create sort-of mech-like beings and various devices. It seems Antinoid consists of 4 main people who seek to do evil things, though at times you begin to question whether they're truly bad or not.

Honey Trap was formerly apart of this organization, but due to a misunderstanding, was fired. After previously encountering Rabid Rabbit in a mission prior to her leave, she actually falls in love with her, though it is only one-sided thus far. Honey Trap tells Hayate (Rabid Rabbit) that she is no longer apart of Antinoid and believes that Hayate would hate her. But, Hayate says that no matter what, she wants to help people whether they are friend or foe. Thus, Honey's love for Hayate grows deeper and their friendship begins.

There is a plot, but most of the chapters are usually just slice-of-lifey. We experience how Honey and Hayate experience their days together and apart and how they grow closer to one another in such a short amount of time. There are also some moments of great backstory from Hayate, telling us how she originally became a Hero and the struggles she faced.

My interest lies in nearly every aspect of this manga. The art style is really pleasant and looks phenomenal, the characters aren't boring and are a joy to see in action, the settings and backgrounds always look top-notch, and the premise is interesting. I love to see Honey and Hayate interact, biding my time until they one day might get together, or until Honey truly professes her love. I'm a sucker for romance, and this gets my heart racing at times. (Edit: I forgot to mention, there are some action elements. I mean, Hero is in the name. The action is great too. But, to be honest, it can feel a little hard to keep up with it from panel to panel at times. So be ready for some action, romance, and comdey.)

I mentioned it being a Shoujo Ai, so expect to see A LOT of female characters. That's about it.

There aren't many chapters out there yet (translated, there are only 12 chapters from what I have read), but it's still fun and gets me excited of what's to come. I do hope for more, it makes me happy.

I've always been a big fan of supernatural stories as they really intrigue me. Mostly for that reason, I decided to give Girls Go Around a read since I thought the plot was kinda interesting. Now, while Girls Go Around isn't entirely a compelling read, it does have some decent aspects which make reading it kinda worthwhile.


Story (6)

Kyousuke Sayama, a typical highschool student, he has become really bored for living a rather boring and uneventful life. That is, until one day he realizes that he and one of his female classmates named Tomoka Shiina have suddenly gotten stuck in a time loop. They later figure out that the cause of these time loops is Tomoka's regret about not doing a certain thing and the loop won't stop until she has come to terms with her regret. After solving Tomoka's issue, Kyousuke finds he and some of his other female classmates have become involved with this loop again.

Girls Go Around follows Kyousuke helping the girls in overcoming in their overcoming their regrets to prevent the occurrences of time loops.

The plot of Girls Go Around is not very original. It isn't really compelling for the most part either. While watching the protagonist learn all the characters' regret to prevent the time loops was sort of entertaining at first, it became boring very quickly. However, the ending is where the story becomes kinda interesting in my opinion.

The manga concludes the story in a pretty unorthodox way. It seemed somewhat quirky and light hearted in the beginning, but the ending unexpectedly took a dark turn, which I liked to be honest. I won't spoil what happened at the end, but I think it's easily the best part of the entire manga. There are still a few issues with how it is handled, though.


Art (7)

There isn't much to comment on the art. It isn't very unique or eye-catchingly beautiful, but it is pretty decent. Some of the chapters have colored pages. They are very few in numbers, though.


Characters (6)

The characters of Girls Go Around aren't that interesting or unique. The protagonist, Kyousuke, is a pretty ordinary character with no unique traits. The female characters also don't have any interesting characteristics. In short, they are all pretty generic. Their conversations aren't quite entertaining to read either.

Though, the one thing I liked about the characters is that they all have some kind of regrets for things that they couldn't do in the past, which I find pretty relatable. The author decently portrayed the reasons behind their regrets and how they overcame these regrets after they were given a second chance. It helped me sympathize with the characters.


Enjoyment (6)

I somewhat enjoyed my time reading Girls Go Around. While there were quite a few noticeable flaws of the manga mostly for its short length, it wasn't that bad a read overall.


Overall (6)

The final verdict is, Girls Go Around is fine. The manga did a somewhat decent job at entertaining me. If it had a few more chapters, some of the aforementioned issues could've been fixed which would've helped the manga become more entertaining to read.

If you are a fan of supernatural stories, I would recommend reading Girls Go Around to you. Since it contains only 10 chapters, it would be a short read as well (Although the first chapter is more than 70 pages long). It's not remarkable, but you still might find it enjoyable.

First of all, I just wanna say hats off to the author for his art style. This book has probably the most aesthetic art style I've seen in a manga thus far. Truly captures the feel of the kind of read your in for, as it's very cute and pretty straightforward. There isn't too much suspense within the plot, as we are pretty much seeing them date rather quickly. But it's simply a mundane romance, which I personally found enjoyment in, but could be perhaps too low action or plot for some. And the characters are pretty cool, I found that on their own I didn't find them quite as interesting as when they were together, given the fact that she's quite fragile and sensitive, and he's more stoic and cool-headed. But I had some enjoyment with the side characters as well, so there aren't any major character holes in the story. After we get past some slight dramatics in the first view chapters, it honestly feels like a typical high school romance, but in a refreshing way. I personally read it between my break with an action anime, which honestly is something I recommend. Overall, it wasn't my favorite romance, but it was a good one, and an adorable read at that.

If you don't have followers, you die.

At first when I started readin the manga, I thought— ‘What the hell! Is this another versiomln of SAO except that it has nothing to do with swords?’ But 3 chapters into the manga and I was proven wrong. It does not revolve around a single game, it is a social trap. REAL ACCOUNT is a social networking site where having followers is a must.

Just so you all are not confused, I would like to tell you that the manga has 2 volumes right now. Volume 1 has 10 chapters and the protagonist is Kashiwagi Ataru. Volume 2 has 5 chapter (still publishing) and the protagonist is Mukai Yuuma. They are related and stuck in RealAcc but I won't tell you anything else. Lets start the review~


ART- 8.0/10
The art work is well done. Detailing is impressive but basic level. There is no problem in differentiating between different characters. Each have their own characteristic way.

STORY- 9.0/10
Superb story! I loved the concept of getting caught in a Social networking site rather than in a game (which is quite common). They play different games inside the RealAcc and the different, unique quizzes and dares make you see yourself in place of them.


CHARACTERS- 8.0/10
Normal characters. The type with whom one can relate. They think not differently than us normal people do. Nothing extra ordinary about them (except for being cute) :P


ENJOYMENT- 9.0/10
The manga is filled with excitement. You can't put it down unless you read it till the end. The games played to survive are both psychological and social. The whole world watches as the characters play to save their lives. No followers means you are dead. If you loose a game, then also you are dead— added that all your followers die to.

Now you see the problem behind having followers?

Over all, I give this manga 9.0/10.
