JoJo no Kimyou na Bouken Part 7: Steel Ball Run review
Man oh man, this is great. This is definitely the best part of JoJo no Kimyou na Bouken (JoJo's Bizarre Adventure). The story is amazing. The art is sooo good. The characters are the best, especially best JoBro except for Speedwagon, Gyro Zeppeli. I enjoyed this manga very much, especially the comedy parts like the rella song, which are a great break from the mind twisting that is this manga and it's stands.
Overall, 10/10. I recommend reading this manga right now if you haven't, because it is great. It's about a man called Johnny Joestar who is crippled, who meets a guy named Gyro Zeppeli, which has a mystic power he uses called the Spin. They go together on a race that is across all of the United States, and fight others, to gather Jesus' body parts and recover them all so that the president of the United States called Funny Valentine can't gather them all before they do. It s a very bizarre experience, but it ain't called JoJo's Bizarre Adventure for nothing. To see what happens to these people, read JoJo no Kimyou na Bouken Part 7: Steel Ball Run. TL;DR: The story of a crippled dude with a dude with weird balls fighting the president of the United States is great.

Shakunetsu Kabaddi review
Do you like sports manga? You must have no idea of what Kabaddi is. If that is the case, this review is for you.
Kabaddi is a game played between two teams of seven players, in which individuals take turns to chase and try to touch members of the opposing team without being captured by them. Two teams occupy opposite halves of a field and take turns sending a "raider" into the other half, in order to win points by tackling members of the opposing team; then the raider tries to return to his own half, holding his breath and chanting the word "Kabaddi" during the whole raid. The raider must not cross the lobby unless he touches any of his opponents. If he does so, then he will be declared as "out". The thing that is used in this game is the body itself. Team play that helps you capture the enemy that enters your territory; a sport in which dragging and bringing down the opponent leads to victory. This is the game, where you run while fighting. Yoigoshi Tatsuya hates sport. Be it getting scolded by the coach, hearing remarks that are full of jealousy of your friends, or being made pose for the cover of the school's sports magazine. And so, he has been living a high school life with no sports; any invitation to join a sport club pisses the hell out of Tatsuya. One day, however, he makes a terrible mistake. He decides to check the Kabaddi club. After a number of taunts, thinking that Kabaddi is just some lame sport that will never be any different, he decides to play Kabaddi against one of the members of the club that tries to recruit him: if he wins, the Kabaddi club will never bother him anymore. If not, he will have to join the club. Because of the fact that Yoigoshi does not want to take Kabaddi seriously, he loses and has to join the club. Although, I have only read 3 chapters so far, I can tell you that right from the first chapters the manga is extremely fun to read, because I do not think that many of you know about Kabaddi, the manga does a great job explaining what Kabaddi is, it has many interesting characters and a team of weird guys, there are many scenes that are full of action that have little to no unnecessary episodes, and finally there will be an anime adaption that should be really fun to watch. With that being said, I think that this manga deserves a 9/10.

Dolls Fall review
From the author of corpse party comes another gory manga with loli's in dire situations coupled with constant panty wetting and with sheer gruesome scenes at times.
Though having said that this manga wasn't by any means a good read and many a times left me scratching my head trying to understand what it wanted to say. Story 3/10 Well the synopsis pretty much sums up the whole story without much to add.There aren't many plot twits to make you fall out your seat.(The last chapter had a plot twist but at the end of the day it seemed very underwhelming). The story mainly revolves around the gore and that's pretty much it. To sum it up. If you see a new girl in a chapter chances are she is most probably gonna die and that is what this manga mainly revolves around. Art 7/10 The art is the only redeeming fact about this manga.Not at a masterpiece level but it goes very well in depicting the gruesomeness the author wanted to portray. Being drawn by an artist which has mainly focused on hentai the art truly does stand out and many a times has brought light to this otherwise dull manga. Character 2/10 This is the weakest link in this manga and the reason i don't like this at all. Some of the characters are just introduced as slaughter goats to depict how gruesomely the author would kill her. The main character and 1-2 others do have some stories to tell but in most cases you won't give a damn about the character and would just be waiting just as to how she is gonna die. Mid way through i didn't even try to remember who is who cuz she gonna die next chapter anyway. Enjoyment 2/10 The manga does start of well.And the early chapters do have a lot of promise.But that is totally destroyed as the manga moves on to the further chapters.Not to tell the ending was extremely rushed and made no sense whatsoever at times. Overall 2/10 To say as a whole this manga wont be a big plus in your list.Though if you love gore you could enjoy some parts as that is where this manga excels at.If you have all the time in the world, love gore and don't know what to read next give this a go.

Time Paradox Ghost Writer review
Time Paradox Ghostwriter is one of the shortest Jump Manga i've read, only managing to have 14 chapters before getting axed. Today is the official release of the final chapter, and i feel like I have to give it a review.
This will contain spoilers and is also something i'm deeply, personally attached to! Story: 9/10 From beginning to end I feel like TPG has had a fairly solid story, focusing on a struggling rookie mangaka: Teppei Sasaki, putting a lot of emphasis on his passion for making manga and wanting to make a manga everyone would be able to enjoy. Met with the extreme ruthlessness of the industry he's a part of he almost breaks, in a scene i found incredibly relatable as a creative. Just as this happens he receives a copy of Weekly Shounen Jump from the future, thinking it was all a dream he unintentionally plagiarizes a manga named "White Knight" and the story truly begins from there. This set up serves to create an intriguing mystery as we uncover more about our secondary protagonist Itsuki Aino, but also brings up a lot of moral questioning on if what he's doing is right, he clearly feels guilt for his actions, but feels indebted to his fans and to Aino to an extent that he must continue, and theres this richness to the story where it's complicated and nuanced, and its a shame because seeing these topics being explored would have been really interesting. I won't lie, due to it's axe i feel like more could have been done for sure, it's rushed but the ending chapters still were incredible for me, both characters feel decently fleshed out, and the mystery plot kept me on edge too. It clearly presented it's themes and told what it wanted to with no extra bits and delivered emotionally. It's short and sweet even if it'c cut a little short. Art: 9 /10 Usually i prefer art with a lot more flair, which feels unique ... this charm is somewhat lacking here, but the quality for a weekly manga is amazing especially in the characters, and also the setting, where i noticed a lot of really well drawn backgrounds and items. The panelling is a bit basic and sometimes theres a little too much text ... which i think might've been a factor in why it got axed. Character: 8/10 I wish we got more time with Teppei Sasaki and Itsuki Aino, I felt like i could relate to them a lot, Teppeis frustration about not being good enough, his creative struggles as well as his absurd passion for manga are something i feel deeply connected to. With Aino, her loneliness and how manga essentially became her everything also resonates with me, and for a manga and it's characters to captures such a specific feeling is amazing. I wish we got to explore their chemistry a bit more, but i liked what i did see, with them both in the end coming to a realization together on what they want from manga and life. Conclusion: I love this manga, i think i was brought to tears almost every chapter from how relatable it was, feelings i thought were very specific to myself i found in this manga, and it made me feel validated. It's given me an extremely personal connection to this manga and the authors, In a way it feels like a personal message from the authors about manga, about being a creative, the frustrations, the joy of making something, and in the end just enjoying the process might be the best thing, you don't have to make a manga that everyone will enjoy, but if one person understands you and your manga, isn't that amazing? I feel like I was that person, this manga felt made for me, and even though it got axed I'm so happy it exists, I'm so happy i got to read it every week for the 4 months it was serialized, thank you. Why it Failed: From what I gathered some parts didn't go very well with the Japanese audience such as the whole plagiarizing business, which i thought was very well done. Other things such as it having a lot of text at times may have also contributed to people not liking it as much or not being bothered to really read it thoroughly. Perhaps it was too niche and just doesn't have the the draw other series have like the action in a battle manga or comedic value of a gag manga, maybe people feel like it isn't necessary since Bakuman exists ... sales are also a big factor and TPG didn't have the best sales. I'm sure like other Jump manga theres multiple reasons, I hope the authors can keep going and make more manga in the future since this one really captivated me (and that guy who bought 100 volumes). FINAL SCORE: 9/10 - Great

Koi review
This is a short collection of interrelated stories, all dealing with unrequited love.
Story, 6: I thought the stories wove together nicely, but the stories themselves weren't very strong. There were a few touching moments, but the "climax" at the end of the volume didn't do much for me. Art, 7: There were some refreshing panels included, and the characters all looked unique. The scenery was nice as well. Characters, 5: A few characters reappeared in later chapters, and while I appreciate the bold move in leaving them unnamed, it made it even more difficult to distinguish one from the next (in terms of personality; as stated in "Art", they all looked sufficiently different). I liked several of them, but their personalities all seemed to meld together after a certain point, and their individuality was lost. Enjoyment, 5: The read itself was relatively enjoyable, but I wasn't blown away by any particular chapter, nor was I really satisfied with the ending. Overall, 5: CLAMP fans might like this lesser-known work for a quick romance read, but considering the art is done by Okazaki Takeshi (and not the other CLAMP members), they may be disappointed in the stylistic differences.

Naruto review
Story:
Naruto's prototype is very barren but still quite enjoyable. It's a stand-alone work with no credence to the actual narrative of Naruto but it's a fun way to see what could have been. What if Naruto was more modern? What if not everyone was a ninja? What if demons and humans lived together? There's definitely some tropes here that could have gone into detail that aren't primarily used in Naruto's standard narrative, and that's okay. This work is it's own body, and it's actually pretty decent. The pacing of each page and the paneling of everything is pretty solid, but the narrative itself is just a simple mystery story that doesn't get into very much detail. There isn't anything big about the end 'surprise,' and the characters themselves are just enough to help do the job needed. 'Sufficient' is a great word to describe how this prototype functions. It did its job in giving the mangaka somewhere to start, and I'd argue that this is a really great start. Art: I'm a sucker for hand-drawn work, and as a one-shot prototype, this looks pretty great. I was impressed by some of the landscape panels and disappointed when the manga become mostly indoors. I understand it takes a lot of time to draw out certain aspects of a world and setting, but it doesn't mean it can't be done. Some panels don't even have backgrounds, reserving themselves to cross-hatched shading. There are a lot of manga that forsake backgrounds to certain panels but when things are indoors, I don't see why a simple table and chair in the background couldn't have been implemented. The characters look pretty good and their expressions look believable. There isn't any uncanny valley junk going on, but you can tell there wasn't much done when it came to editing. Some lines looked a little off here and there and it made some scenes look bulbous for a few characters, to say the least. Character: I think I mentioned this briefly in the story section but I'll say it again: The characters are the bare minimum. They do their job, and I felt they did it well. I was connected in so far as I needed to be to get the point across, and I think that made things pretty fun. It's very short so that in itself meant it had to do just enough to make it worth your time, and I feel it did just that. Enjoyment: Actually, really quite enjoyable. I didn't realize I was at the end when I got to the last page. Not out of surprise, but because time went by so fast. I was pretty focused on the story as it were, and that made things go by very swiftly. I also find it super fun to see where a mangaka was when things first started out. I'm a huge fan of the cutting-room floor, and seeing what gets in and gets out when a work is complete is very exciting to me. It's like opening a time-capsule for a story except this capsule is from an alternate, unfinished dimension. Pretty neat.

GT-R review
Being a huge fan of GTO. I decided to explore other manga related to it and finally came across this. I really liked Ryuuji, not as much as Onizuka but he was a fun person as well. This spin off revolves around Ryuuji and his short (mis)adventure after meeting a girl named Mimon.
I would say that it's a classic GTO story but with Ryuuji as the protagonist. The characters from Shonen Junai Gumi/GTO do show up but they don't have a major role here. There are crazy bike chases, cars crashing around, robbery equipped some ecchi and sexiness with some bra and panty shots. The new female character was good and Ryuuji's relationship with her was fun to see. The art is pretty much the same as GTO. For it's short length of one volume I really did enjoy it. If you are a fan of GTO and Shonen Junai Gumi, GT-R is definitely worth the read.

Ningyo Rhapsody review
Actually, I'm just writing this just to brag that I'm the 90th person that has read and added this One-shot to my list (also maybe just to get myself to strictly score a work since there aren't that many manga/one-shot/anime/light novel that I particularly dislike.)
I doubt people are going to read this anyway so spoilers ahead! STORY: 5/10 They established that the characters live in a place close to the mountains and the sea, and that mermaids that eat humans exist in the sea. And our protagonist's parents are a human father and a mermaid mother. Toshihide (the protag) goes to the sea to play an underwater piano that mermaids had made in the past and not many mermaids can play at present. Toshihide meets a mermaid as he started to drown and was saved by said mermaid. The mermaid's name was Shijyu. Shijyu and Toshihide got along with Shijyu really well and had spent time together by teaching Shijyu how to play the piano. One day, a shark had attacked Toshihide and Shijyu bit his ear off during the confusion because of Toshihide's blood that spilt in the sea. Both mermaids and humans had decided that it was the fault of the other party, but because Toshihide's father told him about why he loved her mother, Toshihide comes to an understanding that feelings are more important than anything. He then goes back to the ocean to play the piano once more, and while this was happening Shijyu also rushed to where the piano was, accompanied by mermaids that tried to stop her. Upon hearing Toshihide playing the piano, the melodic sounds that traversed the sea was nothing short of beautiful, and from then on, the relationship of humans and mermaids started to get better. Nothing unheard of so it's pretty average. ART: 9/10 It really was great Nothing much to say but that. CHARACTER: 5/10 Like I said, the story and the characters are very closely tied together and that's why I also rated this 5. Average. ENJOYMENT: 6/10 There were cute moments and the art was simply gorgeous. I don't really mind a lackluster story since this is a one-shot, so there's nothing much to expect. OVERALL: 6.25/10 -> 6/10 I only recently decided to read other Fujimoto works since I'm curious of what else he has written aside from Fire Punch and Chainsaw Man.

Amarimawari review
Amari Mawari is a silly little cute and chaste romance about a college student and a middle school girl from a nearby orphanage who bond over a mutual love of pets and other cute things.
The humor has the feel of a 4-koma manga, although the paneling is not technically done in that style. The art is good--it reminds me a lot of Sengaka Gurashi, as sort of a cute, fairly simply shounen style. There are a number of boob and loli jokes, but the actual content is fairly content is very chaste: some bras are shown on a bed, and there is frequent hugging, but nothing more ecchi than that. Instead, this is just a fluffy little manga that will make you smile. The romance isn't deep or meaningful; it's just about two people who like hanging out with each other. The humor isn't full of belly laughs (unless you are a big fan of tsunderes), but the cuteness will make you smile. I found a couple of the side characters annoying (some of the other orphanage residents), but most of the really bad ones weren't around too much. So not the greatest manga in the world. But a nice quick little read if you need to smile.
