I’ve finished the second book and I’m reading the third volume. It’s the hardest reading in Japanese I’ve done so far, but on that topic more in the language section. I’m going to try to keep the review up to date after reading each book. Overlord likely isn‘t a masterpiece of literature. I didn’t read that much books in Japanese to make qualitative comparison. In general terms as far as the story is concerned it’s an interesting fantasy/action story for sure. Overlord is one of the trending isekai (i.e. another world). There are various approaches to this... See full review

This review is based only on the first season (up to ch 30). Will likely expand upon it when I read more. Freak Quency is based on an otome game by the same name. And I know what you're thinking, and no this isn't one of those cutesy, romance otome's. It's a psychological mystery game with horror elements (and some really graphic content). I played the game several years ago and had pretty high expectations for the webcomic adaptation. And so far it seems promising. They are following the source material and haven’t deviated from it yet at least. This review isn’t going to be a comparison... See full review

This is actually a manga I watched during testing that my friend lent to me. I thought it was pretty good. Story- I gave the story an 8 because the story wasn't too original since it's kind of a hero that needs to save the world type story. It's not to original but that's the main objective of The Legend of Zelda series. Art- I gave the art a 10 because I like that kind of art style that doesn't look old because I don't like anime styles that look old. You might but I like anime with vivid colors that are light like Happiness Pretty Cure or Aikatsu. Characters-  This manga revealed to me that... See full review

of all the isekais to have been made this one was probably one of the better shame the author died, may he rest in peace

Ok first of all let me say that I’m a bit biased because friends to lovers is one of my all time favorite tropes. I just never get tired of it.  Story I am sure we’ve all heard of this story a lot of times. Boy and girl are best friends but they develop romantic feelings for each other over time but they don’t want to admit it because they don’t want to ruin their friendship. Such a simple story but with so much potential. I loved the fact that the story took place in a university instead of a high school. It felt more relatable and real for some reason. I really liked...

This is a cute wee story that fits into the plot of the authors other manga, Love at Fourteen. This story is so sweet and fluffy and gives you all the feels. I really recommend it.

It's a good 20 chapter Manga,the art is amazing and the characters are intesting but as i said earlier it's 20 - 24 chapters so i really can't talk about the story but overall it's a good piece of art ! 

A sweet romance between childhood friends. I liked their relationship because they helped each other grow as people and become stronger. The secondary characters were cute as well. There was no unnecessary drama. Overall, it was a cute story. 

 its the best manhua I've ever read!!! so interesting <3 art is also amazing! highly recommended!!

Hiyokoi is one of the best manga I have ever read. The story shows how despite differences not only in height but in personality, love always pulls through. I personally dislike harem and too much drama so this story is perfect as while there is moments of drama, it is usually resolved quickly. The art is fantastic and I love how the two main characters look. The characters themselves are wonderful as well. Hiyori changes from a shy nervous girl with no self confidence into a bubbly young woman who is open to new friends and ideas. Yuushin changes as well as he learns what it means to love someone like... See full review

I loved it and I hope you will too. It's similar to 19 Days but yet different.  The art, fashion and characters reactions and expressions are so good, it's refreshing. The comedy aspect is really sharp and the short situations are really well summarized. 
The SM relationship is really well addressed, because they are only high schooler, so they don't know yet... but it's there. and it's brilliantly done.  More importantly, characters are not meant to be gorgeous but you can't take your eyes away... That deserves a high score right there. You can really gauge it's all happening in each... See full review

It has a good plot but the way you come across it is a bit weird although I wish it had a few more chapters.

Short story by Tomochi. Overall really good yaoi drama. I particularly liked the mindset around being gay wanting to wear a condom. Art is really great, expressions and sex scenes are both very deep (literally) 
The story is great, and I particularly think you have to have a great mind to be able to switch from disgusting to sexy. It is very well done here, making you feel just right, not pervy, not sick, not weird. just a reader enjoying profund work.
Leaving an abusive relationship can be harder than being in one. Becoming the one who makes decision, and take actions can be overwhelming. This... See full review

I'm honored to be the first to review this manga since I think it deserves all credit and more I can give it. I hope I can do justice for the story and characters I have fallen in love with. This manga is a fantastic choice if you enjoy strong and interesting characters as I do. As well as yaoi, because let's face it, it's in the title. Not that I see anything at all wrong with that. It has an impressive pull to it that drags you right into the story. Some might think that because it is not likely qualified to be called light-hearted that it might get boring with all the tense moments. I have found that is... See full review

So, to start, I have been reading "I love Yoo" since 2016 when the creator, Quimchee, was still publishing it on the non featured webtoons side also known as discover on webtoons.com. I'm saying this because i may seem biased from what i have to say as i have already grown an huge attachment to the story and its characters during the last 2 years. STORY: The story starts off with our main female protagonist, Shinae, that doesn't have any interest in romance nor love. Since i have already watched and read a lot of stories with the same type of main character, i would... See full review

Tripiece was such a cool book but the last volume was just way too rushed and the ending was so bad and just kind of left you hanging. I actually thought I never finished reading it so years later I read it again and I now remember that I had just repressed that horrible ending from my mind. Just a heads up.

The idea and concept of this manga is great and it would have been very entertaining to see how the characters in the story would progress and learn. but it seems the manga was simply made for us to bare hatred towards the protagonist as the story goes on. A island that i rule is Dark and way more gory than it needs to be as the aurthor seems to try to rub in at the begining of the story. if it ever became an anime i bet many would love to hate it as it was practically made for that purpose. The art is amazingly well drawn and shaded as it makes all the girls and boys on the island look like they were... See full review

The story of this manga is nothing special. But what made me enjoy reading this manga so much is the lovable characters. Both the main girl and the main guy are very likable and their chemistry is amazing. They’re the definition of “opposites attract”. What I liked the most about it, is that the relationship of the main couple felt real. You could feel that they both cared a lot about each other. The story was easy to follow and the art was amazing. If you’re looking for a fun,cute and light shoujo to read I’d definitely recommend this one.

Opinion after only 13 chapters: I know a lot of people love this webtoon, but I just couldn’t get into it at all. Critics say its cliché, but before we even get into that, I think we should discuss the writing. The occasional grammar mistakes as well as the awkward/unconventional choice of words often makes it hard to empathize with the MCs. It also creates some misunderstandings with the characters’ intentions (at least I hope they’re misunderstandings). The cliché moments combined with jaemin’s immaturity, pompousness, and aggressi- Ahem -“tsundere&rdquo... See full review

I am in love with this webtoon.A unique manga I will say from the art, the story telling, the characters developement. While reading the chapter you will try to analysing and interpretate it in your own way, so it can have many perspectives due to your view . Plus all its pannels are full of meanings with the body expression, the acting, the colors, the light ...I will categorise it to a drama romance comedy, psychology, mature.

Trigger Warnings: nudity, sexual content, severe gore, brief rape mentions, beastiliaty

Anamorphosis no Meijuu is an ero-guro horror manga by Shintaro Kago. The first half of this features a sick, twisted horror-detective game that leads the reader guessing many things about the story. The second half is made up of one-shots of different horror genres.

The first story was actually pretty thrilling. Unfortunately, I've gotten quite used to guro manga portraying something as one way when it was completely the over - the manga that taught me this was actually ... See full review

Trigger Warnings: one count of rape

A Foreign Love Affair is a one-volume manga following the story of a yakuza clan heir and a cruise ship captain. After a one night stand on the yakuza's wedding night, they meet once more in Italy and begin a whirlwind romance.

This was, surprisingly, an incredibly sweet read.

At first, I wasn't sure where I stood with it. It started off with rough artwork, a quick-paced storyline, and no discernible plot. I didn't know where it was going or what the author was planning to do with the story and I found myself very bored very quickly and left it... See full review

Yami no Koe is a goru manga collection by renowned author and artist Junji Ito. Known for his gruesome and psychological horror with a career that spans many years. The first collection I read by him wasMimi's Ghost Stories, known in romanised Japanese as Mimi no Kaiden. I wasn't too keen on the story itself and so was hesitant to go into this collection. However, after hearing great things from my friend on the story Glyceride from my friend and finding it was present in this collection, I decided to throw caution to the... See full review

As a fan of guro anime and manga, my friend and I were both utterly surprised when we figured out I hadn't actually come across any of Junji Ito's works before. She set me with links and as this was the shortest one, I decided to start here for my Ito binge for the night. 

Mimi's Ghost Stories is a one volume, six chapter manga book that revolves around Mimi, a young (slightly annoying) girl who somehow always ends up surrounded by ghosts or in a situation with them, or at least the paranormal. From ghosts to strange creatures, and a creepy short story at the start, this psychological... See full review

Layers of Fear is another simple, not as short (forty-ish pages) one-shot by guro author Junji Ito and made it onto my reading list tonight simply for being a one-shot (sorry timeline, you might wanna get used to all these Ito updates, it's binge night!). At first, I was attracted to this after recognising the name from the 2016, psychological horror game of the same name (it's an amazing game, I recommend watching a gameplay of it). I believed the game may have taken inspiration from this one-shot, but quickly found... See full review

Trigger Warnings: NSFW images; sexual assault (frankly, if you have any triggers with NSFW at all, I'd recommend avoiding this completely); emetophobia

After a reading many of Junji Ito's works in the ero-guro category of manga, I decided rather than binging all his works in one, I'd also check out another highly recommended mangaka - Shintaro Kago. Reading through what works were available on the website I use, I decided to start off with Fraction after having seen some intriguing artwork from the... See full review

Black Paradox is a one-volume manga by guro artist and author, Junji Ito. When a group of anonymous people meet through the Black Paradox website and join together to kill themselves, their lives take a sudden, unexpected turn. Following greed, fear, and loss of mental stability, Ito takes his writing to a whole new level with Black Paradox. 

Now, as someone with suicidal tendencies, I actually very much enjoy how Ito... See full review

This manga deserves more attention. Do you like virtual-reality? Do you want a good story? Read Ressentiment.
The story's root is not really special, there's a guy that get's into VR to get a girlfriend, yep, nothing unusual. BUT. From those roots there borns something more amazing than a simple generic VR story.  The main character is a hilarous, virgin old man. This story describes his life, his way to get a gurrrlllfriend... but then shit happens and life is a bitch. During the story you can feel this man's desperation, you can pity him, or even be grossed out by him, he's... See full review

This manga is a must-read if you're a time travel fan. It may be a bit long for those who aren't used to reading manga, but it's worth the time. Recently I got into time travel stories and this one was too good to not leave at least a review. The story is not something you see everywhere, I found it special, you get the feeling that you don't want it to finish. 
The story isn't fast, you can experience the protagonist's experiences and even sympathize with him. Not only him, but all the characters are well developed, even though I wanted some of them to be more important, (:'<) I've... See full review

So it's been a while since I finally finished Magi and its time to leave a review. Let me just say this manga is everything.  Magi takes places in an fantasy world with djinn's, magi's, and dungeon capturer's. We start out with our two main character's Aladdin and Alibaba and how they meet. And I will say when I went into this manga I was so irriated by a character having the name Aladdin. Like excuse me there is only one Aladdin and he's married to Princess Jasmine. Anywho I've definitely moved past that and love both Aladdin's equally.  We are quickly launched into this adventure with Alibaba... See full review

awesome manga, and it ended on a strong cliffhanger for :re

Finally some yaoi with proper coming out to the family, kisses and hugging in the streets without shame. Finally, in a manga, being gay is more than normalized, as it should be. None of the often stereotyped seme/uke sado masochistic relationship. being in love or being gay and in love bears no difference... and sometimes, fiction has to take reality as a starting point. well done!

I always avoided this manga because the name was a big turnoff, and I'm not a fan of harem (or reverse-harem) stories in general.... but I wish I had read this sooner. It was SO GOOD. The art is phenomenal, all the main characters are absolutely lovely and have great character growth, and the female lead gets together with the best choice, hands down (even the people in the comments who were rooting for other characters said it was a good choice)! Best of all-- the characters vying for the female leads' attention all are interested in her for who she really is, fujoshi and all. Sure, the initial reason... See full review

This manga starts as a decent love triangle deal and half way through doesn't just derail, it makes the track cease to exist and goes into free fall. I cannot count how many times the word "what" came out of my mouth the closer to the end I got. This covers some serious topics including, cheating, guilt, unrequited love, losing sense of self, effects of divorce and adultery on kids, losing morals due to trauma, rape, abuse, possessiveness, and countless others. I will make one complaint and that is the main character is so amazingly frustrating. Like the main character in Aki-sora, his dick just... See full review

One word, generic. Oh hey I'm home, let's fuck. Hey I am upset, let's fuck. Hey I went to work today, let's fuck. All the characters are cardboard cutouts of would be interesting characters. This could have been a 3 chapter deal and nothing would have been lost and I could have gained the time I instead spent reading this hoping it would get less boring.

(SPOILER-FREE REVIEW) I originally started this manhwa because it was summer vacation and I didn't have much planned other than waste time. Also because I felt very emotionally unfulfilled (I had just broke ties with a bunch of close friends and had spent one month in isolation). To cut to the chase, I felt dead inside and needed something emotionally stimulating. And what better choice than a seemingly angsty BL? STORY The story is so well done. The way the author slowly draws the curtains in each character's background could be considered an art. The plot may seem slightly confusing at first, but... See full review

Hideout es un manga de mierda y no lo recomiendo, los personajes son imbéciles sádicos sin nada redimible, está llenas de escenas violentas que no aportan nada y caen en lo edgy y la moraleja es una tremenda aberración. Bien con esa descripción cualquier cosa la considerarías de pésima calidad, así que veamos que por que digo esto y de esa forma sepas lo malo que es

The story was way too short for my taste as I prefer at least over 30 chapters. I felt that the relationship was rushed and that there wasn't enough time for the characters to truly love each other. I loved the older brother and his story but I felt that it drew attention from the main story. I felt that the drawings were fine. The characters had little to no background which is dissapointing. 

The story was nice but I felt that it was rushed. There wasn't a lot of background for the reader to truly understand the plot. I also felt that the relationship was rushed between the two characters and that it needed more time to develop. The drawings were fine as well. The characters needed more background and I felt that they were unchanging despite events they experienced. This is my personal opinon and I'm sure that many people will either agree or disagree with me.

The art work was beautiful and made the story even more spectacular. I only gave the story 9 because I felt that the ending was slightly rushed and I would have loved to see the two characters form an even stronger emotional connection despite how powerul it is already. The characters were great and I loved how both men were opposites yet worked well together. I also liked how the story balanced out the sexual and emotional content nicely as sometimes there isn't enough passion or there isn't enough of a background. Without a shadow of doubt, I would recommend this beautiful piece to anyone looking for a... See full review

I'm confused on how to read them but from wat I seen on the review its good

Blame! is something quite difficult to explain as many people tend to come up with different interpretations as they read it, meaning that all of us are going to take away something from it. Whether or not you like, my point being, this manga is extremely subjective, some people will love it, others will hate it. So, yeah, this is a completely  baised review as I absoutely loved it. The story is, Killy is looking for the net terminal genes in order to stop the city from expanding, and that's about it, you're just here to follow him. If fact it does feel as though we were just dropped sometime in the... See full review

Cross and Crime is one of the more tricky seinen series I've read recently. It deals with some of the more touchier subjects in anime and manga, such as child abuse and sexual assult. And without further ado let's examine this series. SPOILER ALERT!  Story- The story begins when Yazaki goes to do a story on rock star and friend Keito. However, he is put into a sour mood when he finds out Yazaki has a girlfriend, Yuuka, whom he brought over to the interview. It doesn't take long before Keito makes up his mind that he plans to do something awful to Yuuka, with the build-up at the end of chapter... See full review

I honestly wasn't very fond of the story when I first started reading it, I just wanted something to pass the time. As I was reading, I kept stopping myself from giving it up because I thought it would get better. Boy, am I glad that I continued reading. I loved the sensation I got when reading; I don't know how to describe it, but it's kind like of that feeling when you're so detached and it's sort of grim? I know that doesn't have a good sound to it, but when reading, I love stories that give that feel to it because I'm able to actually get fully sucked into it. Escape into Oblivion was beautifully...

A-MA-ZING! This is one of the first manga/manhwa to ever make me cry, TWICE. The story is being told all too well. The art style is amazing as well, how some facial expressions were drawn really made me laugh out loud. It's one of those books that I can't lay down because I was so interested in what would happen next so I read it all in one day. I loved it a lot and I can't wait for more of this same author.  A must-read!

This is the first review i’m writing so it might be a little off but here we go! i personally didn’t really like this manga. Everything happened very quick, but it doesn’t have that many chapters so that’s understandable. But still, it felt like there were many holes in the story. I also felt like some things could have been explained a little better or been touched further upon.  This story is very cliché which makes it boring to read, cause you have seen it all before. It’s basically “protagonist loves person but that person loves someone else... See full review

THIS IS ULTIMATE FAVORITE MANHWA. Ok, so here, we have a story with just the right amount of 'cute', 'frustrating' and 'fucking sexy' scenes. The author got to balance the lovely story with just the right explicit sex scenes to spice things up. Otherwise, the story may have had fallen into oblivious, for the amount of time the characters took to confess their feelings and stop playing with each other. But anyway, this is just absolutely sweet.

The first season of the story follows Ginger as he struggles to confess his feelings to his childhood friend Rum, whom he has fallen in love with.  The second season explores the relationship between coworkers Mananan and Mr. Monday, and reveals team leader Mono's backstory. Although the premise of angels and demons working together to fulfill god's administrative duties is interesting, there is a lack of real action and adventure. However, the artwork is beautiful, and if you like stories with likeable characters, this is a very good BL manhwa with both suggestive scenes and... See full review
