Solo Levelling is... fine.

It shares some odd similarities with One Punch Man, in that the art is by far the most outstanding quality in it's favour, and also that the main character is the least interesting one around.

I will freely admit that the story simply doesn't appeal to me on a personal level. While edgy loners seem to be all the rage, I don't see much appeal in an antisocial loner being the best at everything in a story, which would normally be defined by characters and their interactions, especially when the plot itself notes the MC as explicitly 'special' with his status as the Player.

The setting, while nothing original if you've picked up any modern Korean works, is decently well explored, the community of hunters and how they interact with dungeons, each other, and the world at large gets a fair amount of explanation.

The characters are bland at best. The dark, sullen lone wolf MC is the only one with significant screentime, and when he isn't really interesting enough to make me care about the story, seeing the other characters being used only to frame how cool and edgy
he is is borderline painful.

As someone who's deep into the light novel scene and has gone through a ton of Korean novels with similar premises, seeing others lavish praise onto this work feels like seeing people watcing Dragon Ball Z be aired for the first time, from the perspective of someone who has seen modern shounen. Works such Omniscient Reader's Viewpoint or The Novel's Extra do much more interesting things with the same blend of modern Korean sensibilities and extravagant fantasy elements.

Overall, a fine, but unremarkable power fantasy KR work with excellent art to distract you from the lacking character.

Recommendations: read a good superhero comic. watch a good superhero cartoon. watch a good superhero movie, animated or live action.

This series started as a comedic/parody manga adaptation of a comedic/parody webcomic. As it goes on, the series has become much much longer than it ever needed to be. One Punch man is right now a full on battle shonen with all the cliche associated with it. It has an overpowered protagonist, lots of bullshit power ups, villain groups, tournaments, long dragged out fights and more.
It's comedy has completely run stale and telling the same joke over and over isn't funny.

It has led me to believe that the author has seen this and took the series in another direction.
It is still very much complete shlock and not in the best kind of way.

I appreaciate art, so I will say that the series still very much looks great and has highly detailed art. It's generic stuff, monsters tend to have lots of spikes and look like what you'd expect from a generic monster but done in stunning detail regardless.

At this point nothing separates it from the other run of the mill battle shonen except it has really pretty art. It doesn't have a story to tell, it isn't following a plot at all and has no interesting characters.

NANA is a great romantic/dramatic manga. NANA also have some funny moments. The manga is about two girls with the same name, Nana, and they meet by fate and eventually become best friends. Even though they are best friends, their life take a twist and they are separated by fame, husband, boyfriend, and work. This manga shows the world of the entertainment industry and it focus it on bands and music and a bit of adult movie but that its later on the manga.
NANA starts out as people trying to pursue their dreams. What's more important for an singer/band/model: Follow their dreams or their loved one?
The decision is very hard on the characters; and each character walks a different path. Its about friends and love being separated by their choices.

The character in this manga is awesome. Everyone with a different style and background. Everyone with problems with love, passion, work and romance. And because its about the intertainment industry, it has a little bit about everything. I dont want to write it out because I think I will ruin/spoil the manga.

Oh yeah, I think this was my first shoujo a friend of my recommended it to me and I loved it. Somehow I skipped the first volume and started reading the second volume and I still got the story =P.
I really love this manga and the way it starts every chapter, with words like, "Do you remember Nana, the day . . . if it was not because you stayed by my side . . ."
I really recommend this manga.

6 for story.
I have only read till the 16th chapter (eng translation available) But the story did come off as a little forced.

6 for art
The reactions were a little bland but the character designs were pretty looking.

8 for character
The characters showed growth and while some developments seemed out of place, the characters themselves were likeable.

8 for enjoyment
I am just a sucker for stories which involve reincarnation or an adult in a younger body.
Though this series didnt focus on that particular aspect much, the whole premise was enjoyable

7 for overall
It was a pleasant read and I hope you can enjoy it too.

It's still in early days and I can see why it might be a turn off for people cause it's rugby and it's not very well known but I will say it has potential to be great sports manga cause the sport of rugby is very hardcore, people constantly play with injuries and get injuries and it isn't for the faint of heart to play and each chapter gets better and better. You don't need to know how to play rugby cause it will teach ya, give it a chance! Art gets better aswell and the main character is interesting. How does someone go from zero to hero in rugby

Who doesn't like hermaphrodites? Probably a lot of people, but that's beside the point.

Hello and welcome to the "Sometimes I Really Question Why I Finished Reading This" segment, where the answer is almost always "Curiosity Killed The Cat".

I like reading weird shit. It's almost always bad in an entertaining way.

Sometimes it's not. Enter Boku no Futatsu no Tsubasa, where it's just bad.

Spoiler warning? The twists are so left field not even Nostradamus could hope to see them coming...

Enter cousins Hiromi (not a hermaphrodite) and Makoto (a hermaphrodite). They have everyday problems, such as boys, the school lesbian, periods, and making sure Makoto doesn't pop a stiffy in public and let everyone in on the big secret.

Everything is fine and dandy until one day Makoto receives a mysterious cellphone, from someone claiming to be her father.

I don't want to type out an entire plot summary, but it starts off fine enough and turns into the worst train wreck since the 2004 Sri Lanka tsunami rail disaster.

The plot is overtly contrived, with way too many "plot twists" and secretive bad guys out to kidnap Makoto that feel like they're there to inject interest but only succeed in confusing. Characters fail to act rationally (I'm going to have sex with your seedy ex-boyfriend who is a known cheater and only uses women for their bodies because he seems like a nice guy!) and detract from the plot that is barely there by the end.

Should You Read: Boku no Futatsu no Tsubasa? Probably not. There's probably better hermaphrodite manga out there if that's what you're looking for, and if that isn't what you're looking for, then why are you here?

What would you do when your manhood is threatened? Go to the cops? Confront the person? How about try and save it yourself? The answer is…do pervert things to ‘bad girls’ just so you won’t lose your manhood. So join Shimizu Kenta who’s on a quest to purify ‘bad girls’ to make them good again. Shimizu has the ability to see supernatural things and is joined in by a loli hell angel…(hell demon? Hell guardian?) name beatrice to help him to purify the girls. So he becomes an executioner to help these girls from going to hell.

Now on to my review: This story is one of the weirdest stories I’ve read. I’ve read a lot but this is up there. If you want a borderline H manga then please come and read this manga, and pray to what ever H God you worship and ask this to be animated. Because by golly we don’t have enough anime where it borderline H. That’s right all this is missing is sex. S.E.X.

Story: 6/10
The story is decent enough but it’s all pretty much the same, just think of any fetish or sex roleplay and bam there you go. From Idol to Molestation. From Stealing to Greed. It does take an interesting turn, but would it stay on the route? We’ll have to wait and see.

Characters and art: 7/10
The characters are quite good with the backstory, the design and the development of their progression whether it be from being a b**** to a nice person or vise versa. It’s still pretty good. The MC is your typical plain MC but is decent enough to get character growth. The art is well detailed and that goes towards the characters as well.

Enjoyment: 7/10
It’s enjoyable with all of the ecchi and fanservice, coming together for a story. Some might like it more then others but it’s all on how you take it. So a 7 is good for me it lack the greatness of a good story for me to give it a higher score. It might change later on but we’ll see. It just depends on how long the manga goes on and where the story goes.

Hungry Marie is a series with a lot of promise. I was a huge fan of Beelzebub, and this series seems like it may borrow concepts from the original series. However, instead of raising a baby demon lord, the story focuses on a boy who fuses with the spirit of a former queen of France.

The artwork is pretty good, and the author brings back nostalgic faces in the forms of new characters.

Overall, I think this series is very enjoyable, and the character interactions so far are pretty funny. If you were a big fan of Beelzebub, then you may like this series as well.

I didn't got anything from this manga and I would gave also the rate 1 but I did added 1 more for the art and for the raising a topic about the world war II because I think its important.

Overall this collection is absurd because I really didn't understood anything and I just waited for the end of the manga.
Too many perverted scenes, too many idiotic scenes that not related to anything.
I don't got what the author wanted to say and this is the problem of this manga..
Its seem like someone really ill drew it because too many fantasy horror with masturbating in the same time - its not something normal for me.

As I think, war could be a bit more obvious and thats why I didn't like this manga at all because I even didn't leaved with some point to think about, its like trying to understand someone schizo with no point while talking..
Maybe the author a bit schizo himself?
Because the feel says that yes.

Anyway, just wanted to tell that I didn't got anything in this collection and think that there is no point at that all.

War is crazy, not understandable at all but more not understandable is this manga that maybe trying to show us the war/ feeling there but showing this not right and u goes confused with all that shit that falling on u from this manga.

"Must be tiring ain't it? To worry about all that, that is. One can only live for a short amount of time. So you might as well try to enjoy it. Don't lose your head over it."


Doraemon is a one-shot drawn by Taiyo Matsumoto and derived from the original Doraemon classic. I honestly know little to nothing about the original, but bare with me as I review this piece.


Nobita, the MC, decides to travel forward in time and see what his future self has become of. What he finds is surrealistically compelling in the highest degree.

When we are young, we never think of the future. We just think of whats now, the present. Rightfully so as the future can be a very scary thought. In this story, Nobita's future self knows this all too well. From meteorites falling from the sky, killing all life on Earth to the possibility of aliens eventually taking over this planet enslaving the human race & even the threat of global nuclear war, these are all worries the world faces. As part of growing up, Nobita realized lifes greatest fears & garnered an excessive perspective of them. Thankfully though, our veteraned are there to remind us we still have our present selves to take care of. We don't know a thing about tomorrow. All we can do is face facts and take the present for what it's worth.

Even though it's a one-shot I strongly feel as though this particular one had a viable message and was delivered excellently through the manga medium. Taiyo on board reinforced this with beautiful imagery and fresh designs for Doraemon fandom. Although some may disagree with his style, I find it brilliant.

Story 9/10
Art 10/10
Overall 9/10
