MODS

Complete | Natsume Kazuki | 2000 released

Your usual fucked up prostitute story where a straight-laced guy pulls a broken prostitute out of seedy world of brothels and violent sex. Art is good. I like fluffier stuff more so this is 6 or 7/10

Uh. Hmm. Okay so it wasnt BAD I just did not care for it. Wut the heck was Julian on about with killing a man with his womb?? Their backstories were kinda fragmented so it was hard to grasp what had what effect? Like mr nice alpha got two backstories to explain his trauma? Or smth? Idk. Maybe I'm just dumb but I was kinda like why is this happening the whole time. So 4 or 5/10

Gokusen

Complete | MORIMOTO Kozueko | 2000 released

Daughter of the yakuza becomes the teacher of a bunch if high school delinquents. She's so much fun and I love the genuine, caring, rough and tumble relationship she's built with her students. She's fiercely protective of them and they appreciate her in their own clumsy way. All the characters a super fun. I love the yakuza guys crying everytime something goes down with Yankumi. I also appreciate that they're still immoral yakuza even if they fiercely value family, loyalty and honor. Honestly this is (almosy) everything I wanted GTO to be. About a third thru, the focus shifts from the students to the yakuza, which is a shame cuz I was really enjoying the teacherness. We never REALLY get to know the students individually. Kuma I think is the only one we get to know on a deeper level. (me huffing copium that a manga from the early 2000s will have progressive ideas and treat women like people. Edit: To my surprise, it actually kinda did! Kinda!) We got SO close to getting a romance free story but tbh it wasnt intrusive and did add to the comedy of the characters. SPOILER I did almost cry over Shinohara leaving at the end. It really felt like they were losing a member of the family. Pain. Overall, I honestly enjoyed this a lot. Some of it hasn't aged well like the only openly gay teacher being an actual pedo and some... many... if the comments about the only other female teacher but I was pleasantly surprised that it wasnt grotesquely sexist or bigoted. So like. Sugoi. 7/10
