July's manga / #Fantasy(145)

I'm not a fan of immortal beings who've lived forever since mankind began, nor of people who've reincarnated countless times and remember everything. These types of stories lack creativity, because no one has possibly experienced this in real life to write a character that could have actually gone through so much. Every life is different, and if you don't know what it was like, you can't write about it, because you're limited by your imagination. She says she's been a mage, a swordmaster, a musician, blah blah, and now she'll just chill for this life. How unappealing of a character can you be? You've supposedly gone through all this and you're not going to try something different this time around? Yeah, I don't buy it. No one can live a life without doing anything, it's impossible. Things will happen to you, regardless of what you want. I thought you would already know that, having living so many lifetimes, hmmm? Yeah, she's just stupid and I can't like her. It's a little despicable and insensitive to people who are struggling to live out just their one life here AKA us normal human readers. The art is above average though, so I'm just going to blame the writer of this webtoon because they're completely uninspired.

The female lead is a freaking idiot. I especially hate it when authors do this, declaring their protagonists geniuses, and failing to deliver. Readers aren't dumb. Just because you say she's a genius doesn't mean she is one. It's even worse, because she herself says she is a genius. Real geniuses won't call themselves geniuses, unless they're conceited pricks. Either way, you shouldn't do that. The world she travels to is a strange mix of ancient China and modern Western era, which makes zero sense. If they have flying airships, why is she using a bronze mirror? Yeah, this webtoon is just dumb. And she falls in love with the jerk who got off the airship at first sight. Genius, my ass. The only good thing about this is the art, which utilizes the webtoon format with the verticality of the panels to show time travel.

This webtoon makes no sense. The introduction of the types of people that exist is weird, they're literally One, Two, Three, Four in Spanish. And what is the purpose of Cero? Why is she calling someone she's never met a villain? I can't even tell if this is isekai or not. How the hell did her dog become a person? WTF??? The art is average. The puppy is the best part of the promo, hands down.

I'm confused why she's called a trivial extra, because it seems like she's the main character, who is a saint. Why did the game even bother asking her to choose and confirm her love target if it's fine to pursue any of them to win the game? That was just idiotic. It would have made more sense to show all the available types of men to date, and then she clicked enter, and then give her the mission once she transmigrated. Has the author even played an Otome game before? Literally, you don't choose from the very beginning, you fall into a path, or you actively chase after your desired target. How ridiculous. The art is average for this kind of webtoon.

Although I liked the first chapter, the second chapter was a disaster. I'm sure the translator knows the meaning of what was said in Japanese, because I read the parts that hadn't been cleaned off, and it was accurate, but the English made no sense sometimes. This needs to be proofread to make it flow more smoothly in English. It was weird to randomly flashback about the female lead and her teacher, who I already hate because he's a playboy type, yuck. I don't see why she needs to care about the otome game characters anymore, since she's free to act how she wants now, so there's no way she'd fall into a villainess route, because she's not evil anymore. She doesn't have any strong motivations or desires, and nothing really changes from the first chapter, which sucks. How can a manga go downhill in just two chapters, that's too fast. Maybe the light novel is better. The art is average for a shoujo manga.

Way too much crap happens in the first chapter, which is divided into two parts. In the first half, he returns home, which seems innocent enough. But oh my god, you'd never guess that he returned from some weird world that has two moons and time flows differently, where he actually spent 15 years and befriended a prince and so much other stuff which is just dumped on readers in the second half. He comes back and he looks like he hasn't gone through all that at all, so I'm not buying his fantastical story. Even his appearance hasn't changed a bit. Shouldn't he look older if he spent 15 years in real time, or is this some magic BS? And he could return to his original world at will? Because it took a mysterious explosion to get him to the world with two moons in the first place. Nothing makes sense so far. The art is average for a webtoon. Maybe this will get better as more chapters are released to explain his experiences, but so far I'm not buying what you're selling.

Boring, and rather confusing story so far. Male lead is isekai'd to a magic world where he has a almost-harem of girls adventurers (not quite yet because no one is in love with him) and now they've defeated the boss, he needs to do administrative work. I don't get why they skipped the interesting parts to go right for the mundane jobs that most people would avoid when reading manga. The art is definitely below average, it's so simplistic and uses large swatches of utter blackness to color in clothing and other details.

So good! I really want this to be continued! All the character designs are on point with the Journey to the West characters. I love how it's basically following the original story line, especially with the tiger. Please update!

Seems like a run-of-the-mill isekai, but with a hunter character. I'm not sure why the Hokkaido part is important, since he immediately got isekai'd to another world which is most definitely not Hokkaido. He's a beginner hunter, so it wouldn't make much of a difference anyway. The first couple pages seem to be unrelated to the rest of the chapter, it may be a flashback or flashforward, very odd placement in any case. The art is good, especially for the backgrounds, the shading is really realistically done.

Assassin player in a VRMMORPG is isekai'd to another world by a goddess, except it's not a VR world anymore. He's tasked to assassinate an evil god, for which he'll be rewarded if he succeeds. There's a lot of explaining in the first chapter, but I feel it is too much info-dumping, which may be unnecessary, since he's no longer in the game world he was in. Basically, it was a lot of bragging about how strong he is, and how unique of an assassin he is. The goddess has no head and very big breasts, which I don't like, because that's typical Japanese fanservice...sigh... The art is somewhat decent, but not noteworthy. The male lead doesn't seem too intelligent, which is typical of a shounen character.
