Beck review
I dropped this manga, not because it was bad. The reason were because i were busy and i don't liker reading in shonen mag because the was only a chapter or two per volume..
+It has a sombre atmospherre, because the manngatries to be realistic. and in reality breaking into music scenes is not easy. Unlike other mangas, the band has no producers who symphatize with them, on the contrary a powerful figure in music industry angry at them. +Nevertheless, the band members can still enjoy themselves, and throw jokes at each others. + good art, the body is prportional, and the background is wonderful. +The main lead yukio is your usual average joe, but unlike in other manga he has no stupid girls swarming around him. every one has a girlfriend, including the old man ( Yukio's bos). Wait did chiba had one? +Maho is not your usual brainless, bimbo. she is gutsy, smart and independent( the reason being she used to live in america) -Yukio sometimes got on my nerve because, eventhrough he experienced a lot of things , he is still pretty much cleless -The characters dropped out of high school, eventhough later it was shown that they regretted it

Yokohama Kaidashi Kikou review
Change: many claim they welcome it with open arms. Yet in practice, even non-serious or dangerous ones can be distressing for they might challenge our values, biases, and comfort zones, let alone changes tied to mortality (such as disease and aging). And outside changes themselves, mere knowledge on impermanence and ephemerality can be painful; understanding that no matter the value attached at anything or anyone they will not be the same can suffice.
However, this knowledge also has another aspect: transitions in life can make individuals more appreciative of the beauty and importance in details they would normally overlook, given often hectic lifestyles, and value life overall more. Also, acknowledging mortality can provide with a powerful incentive to live more zealously, to be more receptive to knowledge and fresh experiences and to break the mold of a more stagnant lifestyle (whenever and wherever possible, of course). The object of this review builds upon those ideas, in creative ways courtesy of great visual storytelling. [1. First, a brief introduction…] Yokohama Kaidashi Kikou is both post-apocalyptic fiction and part of the iyashikei subgenre of the slice-of-life genre, aiming at portraying peaceful daily lives in a serene environment to soothe readers. Does that seem like a paradoxical combination? It’s a match in heaven, for slice-of-life capitalizes on appreciating humble moments and constantly experiencing something new by simply living, whereas the post-apocalyptic element creates an ideal environment to display the transition of all things as well as the fact nature’s course transcends mankind’s plans. There is no overarching narrative in the traditional sense, most chapters are self-contained stories, focused on the adventures of the gynoid named Hatsuseno Alpha in what barely is the Miura Peninsula. [2. Proceeding with characters…] Alpha is a fascinating protagonist; although not a biological human she is warm, sweet and gentle, and seems more than content with leading a simple lifestyle even when hardly getting any customers in her café for days, and that attitude extends to her interaction with the environment and other inhabitants. Saying however she is too carefree or beyond conflict would be false. Her personal circumstances and her surroundings make her very much aware of the passage of time and in turn, this causes intrapersonal conflict, yet without leading her at being aggressive towards others or insufferably angsty. Other characters include the human inhabitants of the former peninsula (including her neighbours with whom Alpha is close), gynoids that juxtapose with Alpha and more enigmatic denizens whose origins are left in shrouds. All in harmony form part of a grand tapestry, to which they may or may not provide alternative perspectives but certainly contribute to the worldbuilding and enjoyment. [3. And concluding with the star, artwork.] Few manga I know draw the most out of artwork in comparison to Yokohama. And that does not refer to quality of design, but to Ashinano cleverly exploiting individual strengths of the medium rather than demoting artwork to eyecandy. Character designs are smooth to eye, highly memorable and easily distinguished and there are many well-drawn backgrounds, but the true virtuosity is found elsewhere. To elaborate, proper encapsulation plays a key role; rather than either extending chapters at too many pages or filling them with too many details, Ashinano instead keeps a modest number of 10-20 pages per chapter and focuses on the minimal required to keep harmony and convey more than words or excessive pencilling can. Layout of panels is creatively toyed with, from richly detailed and awe-inspiring splash pages (full-page illustrations) and double-page spreads, to borderless panels of varied sizes contrasting or even blending with overlapping bordered ones of varied sizes. Also, chapters fluctuate between being more dialogue-focused with a modest amount of speech bubbles to being introspective and caption-based to even entire ones following a total “show, don’t tell” approach, letting environment and close ups do the talk. Full coloured chapters are also featured (at least one per volume), a more than welcome addition to the already broad artistic arsenal of Yokohama. In my opinion though, the more impressive tool is the calculated use of blank space at parts rather than fully drawn backgrounds, where key details make powerful contrasts with or even sprout out of blank space, presenting highlights more poignantly and allowing for the reader’s imagination to go rampant. This fluid, dynamic and oftentimes economical approach is not just for looks or "resource management", for above all Yokohama is a sensory experience and its storytelling is more visual and implicit rather than script-based and explicit; artwork serves to immerse readers into a rich environment fitting the tone and purpose. Hope you enjoyed my review! ---------------------------------(En Français)-------------------------------------------- Le changement : beaucoup prétendent l'accueillir à bras ouverts. Pourtant, même les changements qui sont parfois anodins peuvent être pénibles, car ils peuvent remettre en question nos valeurs, nos préjugés et notre zone de confort, sans parler des changements liés à être mortels (comme les maladies et la vieillesse). Même en dehors de ça, la simple connaissance de l'impermanence et de l'éphémère peut être douloureuse ; il suffit de comprendre que, quelle que soit la valeur attachée à quelque chose ou quelqu'un, ils ne resteront pas les mêmes. Cependant, cette connaissance a aussi un autre aspect : les transitions dans la vie peuvent faire que les individus apprécient davantage la beauté et l'importance des détails qu'ils négligeraient normalement, étant donné leur mode de vie souvent mouvementé, et qu'ils accordent une plus grande valeur à la vie en général. En outre, la reconnaissance de la mortalité peut constituer une puissante incitation à vivre avec plus de zèle, à être plus réceptif aux connaissances et aux expériences nouvelles et à briser le moule d'un mode de vie plus stagnant (chaque fois que cela est possible, bien sûr). L'objet de cette revue s'appuie sur ces idées, de manière créative grâce à une narration visuelle de grande qualité. [1. D'abord, une brève introduction...] Yokohama Kaidashi Kikou est à la fois un récit postapocalyptique et une partie du sous-genre iyashikei du genre « slice-of-life », visant à dépeindre des vies quotidiennes paisibles dans un environnement serein pour apaiser les lecteurs. Cela vous semble-t-il être une combinaison paradoxale ? C'est un mariage parfait, car le slice-of-life capitalise sur l'appréciation de moments humbles et sur l'expérience constante de quelque chose de nouveau par le simple fait de vivre, alors que l'élément postapocalyptique crée un environnement idéal pour montrer la transition de toutes choses ainsi que le fait que le cours de la nature transcende les plans de l'humanité. Il n'y a pas de narration principale, la plupart des chapitres sont des récits autonomes, centrés sur les aventures du gynoïde Hatsuseno Alpha dans ce qui est à peine la péninsule de Miura. [2. Procédant avec les personnages...] Alpha est une protagoniste fascinante ; bien qu'elle ne soit pas un être humain biologique, elle est chaleureuse, douce et gentille, et semble plus que satisfaite de mener un mode de vie simple même si elle ne reçoit pas de clients dans son café pendant des jours, et cette attitude s'étend à son interaction avec l'environnement et les autres habitants. Il serait faux de prétendre qu'elle est trop insouciante ou qu'elle ne se sent jamais en conflit. Sa situation personnelle et son environnement la rendent très consciente du passage du temps, ce qui provoque des conflits intrapersonnels, sans pour autant la conduire à être agressive envers les autres ou à éprouver une angoisse ennuyeuse. Parmi les autres personnages figurent les habitants humains de la péninsule (y compris ses voisins dont Alpha est proche), les gynoïdes qui se juxtaposent à Alpha, et des habitants plus énigmatiques dont les origines sont laissées dans des linceuls. Tous en harmonie font partie d'une grande tapisserie, à laquelle ils peuvent (ou non) apporter des perspectives alternatives mais qui dans tous les cas contribuent certainement à la construction du monde et au plaisir du lecteur. [3. Et pour conclure avec l'étoile, le dessin.] Peu de mangas que je connais tirent les meilleures qualités de dessin par rapport à Yokohama. Et cela ne concerne pas la qualité des illustrations elle-même, mais le fait qu'Ashinano exploite intelligemment les avantages individuels du médium au lieu de réduire le dessin seulement aux images sympathiques. Les dessins des personnages sont lisses à l'œil, très mémorables et faciles à distinguer et il existe de nombreux arrière-plans bien dessinés, mais la véritable virtuosité se trouve ailleurs. Pour élaborer, un encapsulage approprié joue un rôle clé ; plutôt que de prolonger les chapitres sur un trop grand nombre de pages ou de les remplir avec trop de détails, Ashinano garde plutôt un nombre modeste de 10-20 pages par chapitre et se concentre sur le minimum requis pour garder l'harmonie et transmettre plus que les mots ou le crayonnage excessif ne peuvent le faire. La mise en page des panneaux est jouée de façon créative, depuis les pages de garde (illustrations pleine page) et les doubles pages richement détaillées et impressionnantes, jusqu'aux panneaux sans bordure de tailles variées qui contrastent ou même se mélangent avec des panneaux à bordure chevauchante de tailles variées. De plus, les chapitres varient entre une approche plus centrée sur le dialogue avec une quantité modeste de bulles, une approche introspective et basée sur les légendes, et même des chapitres entiers suivant une approche "montrer, ne pas dire", laissant l'environnement et les gros plans faire la conversation. Des chapitres en couleur sont également présentés (au moins un par volume), un ajout plus que bienvenu à l'arsenal artistique déjà très étendu de Yokohama. Mais à mon avis, l'outil le plus impressionnant est l'utilisation calculée de l'espace vide à certains endroits plutôt que des arrière-plans entièrement dessinés, où les détails clés contrastent fortement avec l'espace vide, voire jaillissent de celui-ci, présentant les points saillants de façon plus poignante et permettant à l'imagination du lecteur de s'épanouir. Cette approche fluide, dynamique et souvent économique n'est pas seulement une question d'apparence ou de "gestion de ressources", car Yokohama est avant tout une expérience sensorielle et son récit est plus visuel et implicite que basé sur un scénario et explicite ; l'art sert à immerger le lecteur dans un environnement riche, adapté au ton et à l'objectif de récit. J'espère que vous avez apprécié ma critique !

Arata Primal review
Honestly, I hated it.
I hated it because I really enjoyed it in the beginning but as soon as the antagonist is revealed it all goes downhill. Not sure if they were cut short by the publishers or the writer just gave up. Either way it is bad. I would advise you to just save your time and ignore this manga. Although, I want you to support the artist because the only thing that got me through this manga was because of the art. Okay, I'll try to explain why the story sucked so much ass without spoilers. The reason for the time machine is SPOILERS!!! FUCKiNG METEORITES! Which fucks up everyone on earth in later years but it is totally fucking safe to transfer something that stabilize earth from the "primal age" to present as long as it is not "too much". Because a child prodigy that has traveled back in time and lived there for like years said it is fine. Also that child prodigy is the antagonist that doesn't trust in friendship because our protagonist has been tricked to betray him when they were like 5. Our child prodigy antagonist can literally hack into giant rats mind, control electricity and has apparently learned everything about earth's physics... but still doesn't know that if a BLACK-FUCKING-HOLE is created ON EARTH it would fuck everything up instantly and not wait and charge until 2032. How was this black hole created? Our prodigy here has it already dumbed down for us! It is because of two unknown, unknown. UNKNOWN FUCKING ENERGY from TWO FUCKING METEOR decided to fuck each other and gains MASS. A black hole fucking mass on earth everyone. Yet somehow when our antagonist shows the meteor... guess where he putted it. On a fucking table. Just on a normal godfucking table. I can't get over this... I never expected a full essay of how meteor can fuck up earths gravity theory but this isn't edible in any fucking sense. Why not just ditch the scientific explanation and say magic? Shit like "yeah uhh, earth's spirit like uhh needs help. Apparently a meteor has been stuck in his anus and he wanted some one to pull it out... and yeah it has a lot of electricity and uhh you know you can cancel that shit. Do it pussy." I have never felt more betrayed. The premise was good I smelled a lot of adventures and good old survival of the fittest. Our protagonist that already had the advantage of never had used any electronics had already lived his life in the wild. Well he couldn't even if he wanted to due to a meteorite. Anyways he lacked in social cues and interactions now has to lead these people that never before had built fire without a lighter. "How will he do it?" Kind of feeling. Yes, it was actually fun the first part of it but yeah as soon as the antagonist pops up he surely fucked up everything. Not much for our protagonist but ME mentally. I felt like it was going to be like Planet Earth shit kind of manga but at the end of the day it shat on me like we shit on earth pretty much. Anyways that's it for me. Thanks for reading my rant. Hope you had some catharsis from this review if you felt the same as me. Don't forget to support the artists though. He did real good fucking job here. Have a good day/night/month/year or a shitty one if you want. Bye<3

Mato-chan review
Mato-chan is a lovely comedy, the kind of those that happen to be just like comet haley as they are seen once every generation.
The cuteness of this series is truly something to behold as it gives it an aura of mystique and heart warming feeling that makes the heart melt like ice in the presence lf the sun. The story centers around mato-chan and her school daily life with her friends and her pronounced interest for bugs, showing it as she knows everything that can be known about bugs making her the biggest bugs expert to ever exist. It just shows daily activities in the most simplistic form a slice of life of this characteristics can do it. The art is fitting because eventhough it isn't something to praise in terms of quality but it does it's work giving personality to the characters and making them stand out as the lovely characters they are. Everything said i consider this piece of art as a lovely slice of life that shows how much a person can know about something and always come up with better ideas to mention it.

Shinja Zero no Megami-sama to Hajimeru Isekai Kouryaku review
In a nutshell
The story focuses on Makoto, who dies during the class trip with his classmates and gets summoned in the new world as a hero. He cannot return, because if he does, he will die. He cannot live his life as he pleases, because he, as well as his classmates, will die in 10 years. However, they can still live normal lives and even expand their life expectancy, but they will need to either donate a large sum of money, or to save people. How will their new life look like? Story The story is nothing new. The only thing to make it somewhat unique is that most of the heroes are to be a God’s followers, so that they can get buffs and protection, which is a must for heroes in already difficult times, they are in. Makoto finds out that there are two groups of Gods: the current Gods, who have the most followers, and the evil Gods, the old Gods. Since Makoto is a newbie hero, no God is interested in having him as a follower, so he becomes noticed by a Goddess, who has 0 followers and who is one of the old Gods. Criticism/Some Thoughts It is somewhat of a challenge to criticize a manga only after 6 chapters; the characters have not even shown anything good about them, as well as the story. While the story does look somewhat unique, it still has a long way to go to become good. Because for now it looks like a low effort copypasta, but, of course, it might change in the future chapters, so I am not going to be too harsh with the score. Overall It is an okay isekai that might become either great, or even worse in the future; time will tell. Isekai fans might give this manga a try, for others, however, do not expect something that will blow your mind.

Tokyo Mew Mew review
Art: The art is very nice.
I like Arina Tanemuras style. The cuteness of it. Story: The story is good. Reminds me alot of Sailor Moon though. But this takes up alot about what is also happening in the world as well currently. There are endangered animals, there is pollution, the oceans.. Characters: The characters are so darn cute. And everything happening is also super cute. The intimate cute moments, loving moments are just aww.. It's just too darn cute to read about and look at! It's a good manga series. I'd recommend it for people who like Sailor Moon. Because it's a series about transforming heroes with different abilities. Alot of funny moments as well. Adorable cute and funny moments.

SEIMADEN review
Story: I'm tired after reading this manga as never. Congratulations for You Higuri for great imagination and organization but... Crap! Sometimes less means better! Intrigues, plots, a lot of retrospections, reincarnations, guys which we know about not enough. Eintopf isn't a specialty of japanese cooking, but I have such an impression exactly. The climax reminds me cheap tales from VHS cassette. Events often were just mediocre like moat full of characinids. And it wasn't enough imagination with giving the names too.
Art: In old style, because this is old manga (very exploratory!). Bigger concentration on expression and mimics than on movements. Common manga to 'just watching'. Background are weak or there aren't their on the whole. Character: Which girl doesn't like bishounens?! Enjoyment: I told you - I'm tired after reading this manga as never... But bishounens were nice ^^ Overall: I recommend "Seimaden" to people who are simply bored. That's all.

HARUKA 17 review
Haruka is a 22-year-old college senior looking for a job, she's the nerdy A-star student that has no life with professor parents (Oh! I get it, that's why...). So you'd think that Miss Logical-thinking would have been begged for by job agencies, right? Wrong. Suprisingly (I mean not really suprisingly in Manga world), no agency wants her which sucks... For her since her average-grades-friend got a job. Life's not great for our dear Haruka because her Mom says that if she doesn't get a job... She's coming back home from Tokyo and get [LE GASP!] married! [ Seriously guys, why this hate for marriage?
] Fighting for independancy, Haruka looks for ANY job advertisements to save her from her Mother's pushy wrath. And then she hits jackpot, or so she would have liked to think.
It's an astonishing read to be honest because it's Seinen and doesn't have to do with If-You-See-Kaying {self-censorship isn't bad kiddies}! Damn! This book should be in the world's seven wonders list [at number one]. Yeah, sure, there is a little tush here and a set of boobs there, but overall, this is definitely an improvement. Storywise, I liked it. It was nicely realistic (note: I didn't use 'realistic' per se) with a touch of super-hopeful-fantasy that Mangas were MADE to infuse with their stories. It took this story from a realistic story to I-AM-cinderellaaaaaaaaaaaaa! KIDDING!! HONEST! But it did turn it into a story with a bunch of coincidences, luck and (keep dreaming) hope but still, it was kinda realistic, don't get me wrong, this story's more realistic than most stories out there so technically, it's not a diss. Technically. The characters were either hardcore realistic or sympathetic to the cause, when it came to the realistic characters; it sends a refreshing shock of what really happens in that side of town and is great advice from the wise. However, for the there's-still-hope-for-you-yet type of characters, they were very Manga-y. But overall, a very nice plotline with good, solid characters. The art was, unfortunately, not greatly proportional but it was kinda realistic. With some details here and there. I enjoyed this Manga especially for it's hints of realism because it's an elusive type of Manga that through the sugar coating, life really does stink on that side of the railroads. Why is it still so elusive? Because you don't feel like a stinker when you read it, it was written in a way that you won't feel guilty for encouraging people to do such things (this maybe considered a semi-guilt trip right here) but as people, we really do have to think of our actions because for every action there is a consequence. And for every celebrity, there is a horde of wannabes. Chew it over, for yourself as well as (for me, nah!) for the people that surround you and the people who don't (what? You don't care for Palestine?). I would recommend this Manga for (ahem) readers who have some tolerance for (perverted) Sienen scenes and for leap-first-think-later kinda people. Joy for all that read it, lessons that SHOULD have been learnt for those who don't. And well, you never know if something like this hits you in real life. You really never know.

Mahoutsukai no Neko review
This manga is light and has some humor, but has a darker tone. However, you probably won't take it too seriously. The story is pretty cute and the characters are interesting. I don't think that all of the chapters have been uploaded in English yet, but-so far-the story is engaging and has the potential to be really good. I recommend it if you like wizards and cute cats.
