Mangaka to Yakuza
A pairing between a lackadaisical yakuza and an aromantic writer. An iffy start but manages to actually retain the readers' interest.
Bijo ga Yajuu
Our dear heroine is such an oddball (her dormmates are plenty offbeat too (´∀`)ʱªʱªʱª ). She is never aggravating or overbearing. She's funny, athletic, gluttonous, strangely perspective and a bottle of soda. Winsome and just a little clueless, she's the kind to lay herself bare for all to see. And we are left with no choice but to cheer for her...
Once Again Idol
Gate - Jietai Kare No Chi Nite, Kaku Tatakeri
❦︎105 Here we see two vastly different worlds: the Earth and a world where gods, beastmen and dragons are no mere figments of imagination. This manga is a standout amongst isekai-like stories given its mature depiction of a war between two worlds and its tendency to not shy away from gruesome details of warfare and politics. Expect an array of unique individuals where majority are either soldiers, knights and or warriors. The blend of characters give this novel adaptation a saucy, comical side despite the dark undertones. Unputdownable! An additional star for the bonus features on the wolfmen... Banzaii for fluff!! ﴾`ᗜ`﴿ ︎ NOTE: As always, take everything (yes, EVERY thing) with a grain of salt...
Wild Life
❦︎128 I found yet another veterinary manga!! My day just got better <3. I've only read two of these and is yet to see a dozen of its kind so I thought I wouldn't encounter another vet-med series for some time. Well, there was this isekai one but I dropped it....so it doesn't really count. ;) Both this and "Doubutsu no Oishasan" are incredibly enthralling works that tackle veterinary medicine. While "Doubutsu no..." is about a veterinary student who has to handle snow pileups, temperamental animals and eccentric professors; here we see a rookie veterinarian wrestle with a wild environment.... and even wilder patients.
Flat (AOGIRI Natsu)
Contemplative yet drawn in a jovial, almost undramatic, tone. On that oneshot; never thought I'd one day cry over a chicken. (;´ ༎ຶ益༎ຶ`)♡
Return of the Flowery Mountain Sect
MC is definitely both a gift and a curse to the Hwasan sect. ◆ 73
Angel Voice (KOYANO Takao)
40 volumes in total (357 chapters).... Equal parts comedy and sports. The characters are amusing and likeable. Interactions between these high school athletes (or perhaps "brawlers" would be more fitting) are oftentimes humorous. You'll be too invested in reading before you even notice. Five stars!! NOTE: Raws are available online (but in zip file format)...
