July's manga / #Shounen(47)

Hero gets a second chance at life, decides to wreak havoc. Art style is very gritty, and doesn't go easy on the gore and blood. Feels a bit hard to get attached to the protagonist though, since he's consumed with rage and vengeance.

A manhua like Parasyte. Very interesting, but sadly, it's only a one shot. Leaves me wanting more. Art is great and panels progress fluidly.

It started off promising, but the plot became more and more confusing with each chapter. I feel like there was a good story hidden under all of this, but it was too abstract and incoherent to grasp, unfortunately. The art was good, and the dark color palette conveyed the depressing atmosphere very well. In short, the characterization was weak, which made it hard to understand the motives of everyone involved. It went from something simple to understand, which is a brother trying to find out why his sister committed suicide, to something far more bigger, but it was not done well. By the end, I had no idea what the app achieved, other than mysteriously wrecking people's lives in a vague manner, and that the brother felt guilty for everything. Simply put, good ideas, bad execution.

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.

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.

Ironically, this was more of a gripping read than Naruto, but the characters are even worse in this sequel with nearly zero development, aside from the two male protagonists. However, it was pretty interesting and kept me on the edge of my seat to see what would come next. The art is awful though and the main characters from Naruto are severely nerfed to the point of being useless.

Continuation of Boruto, with an obligatory time-skip which makes everything worse. Don't have high hopes for it, but we'll see.
