She Hates Me

A story about a tsundere girl and a kuudere boy and their odd relationship. Some parts did make me laugh. They have quite a few sweet moments together. The art is slightly below average, but it's fine since it's a 4-koma type webtoon.

It's a pretty cute 4-koma type manga. Art is very simplistic, but it gets the point across. There are only three characters which are properly developed though, everyone else is rather two-dimensional. I enjoyed it and it made me chuckle at times. The romance between Ayako and Hayato, or lack thereof, was amusing. I think it ended at a good point and didn't unnecessarily drag things out too much. Cons were some of the jokes or references were hard to understand, as in, how point A led to point B which led to point C. There are sudden jumps in plot and swings of emotions which were a bit hard to understand. Overall, a decently good manga.

Kanako's Life as an Assassin

It's not particularly funny, and I don't care for the animal puns in every page, but it is still interesting with its developments. I like how relatable Kanako is, and the juxtaposition of her clumsiness and awkwardness with her insane ability to kill so well is funny in itself. It seems like there's been no more new chapters for a while now, seems like we will have to wait for the licensed version to catch up. The art is simplistic with the same bold color palette used throughout, so it's consistent, but not visually impressive.

These Two Will Be Married In 100 Days

Short and sweet, but little substance. The art was very simplistic, with a limited color palette. The time-constrained story it tells means the artwork doesn't need to be fancy. The couple wasn't that cute to me, I've seen better 4-koma romantic comedies than this.

Chi's Sweet Adventures

A sequel to Chi's Sweet Home, but in 4-koma full color style. I didn't like this compared to the original series, since the 4-koma style was used badly in my opinion. It made the panels very cramped and hard to read. Plus, many of the stories were repeats from the first series, and the panels split the story unnecessarily into multiple parts and multiple strips. The new stories aren't all that interesting. Stick with the original Chi's Sweet Home instead of reading this version, which is vastly inferior. I believe it is completed at 50 chapters, since there doesn't seem to be any additional volumes of this available.

Naruto

One of the Big Three, it has great side characters but never manages to do anything with them. It's more character-driven than story-driven, but somehow still fails in the character development aspect. The story itself becomes quite boring, because it's obvious Naruto will win in the end. Still, it's an enjoyable read.

Bleach

One of the Big Three, it was good until after the Rescue Rukia arc, in which it just became a generic shounen chosen one fest. Still worth a read. None of the characters become developed past their introduction, which is a miss.

I loved the first 50ish chapters but it gets very slow in the recent ones, and I'm honestly bored by Anya and her stupidity. Hopefully there will be some progress in the plot soon...
