Mushishi review
Mushishi takes you on a trip to a made-up period of time between Edo and Meiji eras, so if you like the old Japan you will definitely be amused by this.
Story: 9 The story is non-linear and basically tells the journey of Ginko (a Mushishi with white hair and green eye) through the country helping people (and mushi) out and healing ones who have been troubled by the mysterious creatures. Sometimes the story links characters to each other, but most events are random. But still, this doesn't make the storyline boring, as the author makes a great job in keeping you longing for the next case on Ginko's hand. Art: 8 Urushibara Yuki has her own peculiar way of drawing, and the job she does with scenarios and mushi is really good and pleasing. Most characters are similar to each other (all of them being Japanese), giving a lack of representation, but that only works to make Ginko seem even more special. Character: 8 The only character that you will remember after you finish is Ginko, the main character. He is absolutely great, well written and developed, and you will grow a costumed to having him always by your side on this journey. Other characters are almost irrelevant, if not completely, only serving the purpose of their own ephemeral story. Enjoyment: 9 Mushishi is very easy to like, especially if you like traditional Japan. It really takes you on a trip to the past you have never been at, and does a great job at capturing the atmosphere in that time and space. All stories are enjoyable and you will find yourself trying to solve the mysteries with Ginko each passing chapter. The author also leaves you wondering what would happen next after a certain story is finished and what would've happened without Ginko's interference. In fact, a really good job on playing with the reader's mind Overall: 9 Mushishi is a must read for anyone who likes or wants to get into Manga. It is short and sweet, and gives you a magical journey from start to finish. Not a masterpiece as some things could've been different here and there, like more story depth and more relevant second characters. But still, a great manga from Urushibara-sensei.

ASTRO review
While I have always liked science, and presently research it for a living, I only got into science fiction books in the last 3 years. I discovered that scientific knowledge differs wildly among authors. In fact, many great sci-fi writers didn't necessarily need a good scientific base, as Harry Harrison's work demonstrates. Thus, I was excited to read a science fiction manga.
Unfortunately, the manga's author, Kuji, possesses less scientific knowledge than a bright 8 year-old, and his scenario is crappy shounen potboiler. The premise is simple. A team of three astronauts must stop an electrical system that has gone haywire on the Moon because of damage from an unexpected meteor shower five years ago, which also killed three astronauts. Of course, the main character on our team, Tyco, counts her father among the casualties. Right away, we are plunged into idiocy. The manga informs us that electricity has "nowhere to go" without an atmosphere. Really? Have they ever heard of grounding? This has absolutely nothing to do with a lack of an atmosphere. The electricity wouldn't be freely crackling in the air; it would have been absorbed into the Moon's surface. Moreover, if there was significant damage to an electrical system causing it to pump out far more electricity than normal, it wouldn't still have plenty of current five years later. The fuses would have blown out. But it becomes even more moronic, if that's possible. Because, in that same speech bubble, we are informed that the electricity is becoming "more powerful". What in the blue fuck?! This is impossible for the same reason perpetual motion is impossible; where is the system obtaining this steady stream of new energy from? Kuji isn't done. How do you think our intrepid astronauts decide to get rid of this impossible, magically increasing electrical storm? Do they ground it somehow, perhaps even with something as simple as a very long pole? Of course not. Do they, even if ignorant of any and all science, send in a robot to turn off some switches? Considering this story takes place well into the future, where it only takes 3 days to make it to the Moon, and we actually had these robots when this work was published, 2012, the author surely would have thought of it, no? He did not. Instead, the only apparent solution is to have an astronaut manually go inside the magical electrical building to turn the switches off. (I guess they were NOT damaged that badly by the meteorites, huh?) Of course, this leads to the typical hot-blooded shounen bullshit of the main characters suffering injury and pain, but angrily gritting through. In particular, our heroes note that they have to do this for the reputation of astronauts, and fuck those asshole journalists on Earth who doubt them! (Seriously, that's the rationale given by this manga) Even forgetting Kuji's shameless ignorance of science, this is a scenario many teen fanfic writers could improve upon. Kuji the Dunce even chickens out on having anyone die; everyone makes it out safe and sound. This is a wretched, terrible, and downright embarrassing manga. Sad, because I would love to read a good science fiction work.

Watashi no Fushidara review
To start it off, the only good thing about this series was it's art...that is it. I guess minor spoiler alert as well.
I'll be honest, I don't mind smut much really, it can be done okay. An age gap between a late 20's female teacher and high school boy is pretty sus immediately, but hey I'm a guy and honestly that's kinda my thing, older women are the best. But this whole premise takes a drastic turn when the female MC immediately loses any trait of reason, logic, humanity, common sense and just plain decency. I'll just say don't read it. Nothing good comes out of it. I wish I never found this manga and I wish I never read it (I downloaded the raws to read it since it wasn't translated and even that was a mistake). But hey, if you like yanderes, rape, sexual manipulation, underage sex and pretty much ephebophilia then you should get help and this is the manga for you.

Gigant review
Read until chapter 10 and then DECIDE!! Otherwise, you'll make of the biggest mistake in your life! This is why: (free of spoilers)
This manga requires being read for a few chapters because the story is not what you think at the beginning. At first sight, it might look as an ordinary ecchi-about-to-be-hentai manga but then you will realize that it is a mixture of Gantz and Inuyashiki, in other words, a MASTERPIECE which only Oku sensei might create. Characters outstanding design, unexpected turn of events all the time, no OP protagonist. This manga is the closest synonym of "BALANCE" Give Gigant a try. You won't regret it if you've enjoyed either Gantz or Inuyashiki or even both.

Virgin Hotel review
DO NOT READ
This is terrible, i dont even know why this was made. dont like the art and the story is so bad that it took me 10 days to read 9 chapters of this because i kept quitting (only 9 chapters right now) I REPEAT, DONT WASTE YOUR TIME, YOU ARE BETTER THAN THIS. If you do read this there are some things you should do. #1 do not think to hard, if u do you will end up dropping it. #2 if you do read it clear your browser history of it so there is no trace you wasted your time. and finally #3 have a good manga lined up to wash the bad taste of this one out.

Maken no Daydreamer review
I advise reading the LN instead. Several aspects seem to have been changed which includes censorship and alterations to the manga as a result. The length of this review directly reflects the number of flaws.
The manga is generic, cliche and sometimes cringe worthy. The concept of Chunibyou is taken way too far. I think the main character is perfectly fine as he is. He doesn't need to "grow up" and everybody is much too critical of him. He is heavily lectured and critiqued for being too nice, naive, arrogant, conceited etc. The problem is he has faced danger many times and is already quite aware but everyone treats him like a child. The 'daydreamer' attitude is heavily exaggerated and I don't even think it's a problem but I guess everyone must bash on the mc and this is the main focus of the story so far. He doesn't have a single goal in the world and every chapter is aimless. The plot drags, comedy is not even funny, romance is practically non existent and mc is the type to refuse good women literally offering themselves to him. He's willing to sleep with a random prostitute he never met but unwilling to sleep other individuals (one of whom actually 'life energy' to live). If he won't accept a cute girl he has affection for and clearly lusts after who also loves him who the heck will he accept? He seems determined to remain a virgin/single for life but didn't have any problem trying to sleep with random unknown prostitute that has no background. Even worse he works so hard for his waifu he doesn't even seem to care about. Why even bother helping her and treating her in a way she will misunderstand if you're just going to ignore her advances forever? I am annoyed by this MC's lack of emotional and/or physical attachment to anyone or anything. He tries to sneak out to sleep with a random prostitute while also rejecting honest women he has mutual bonds with that are more than willing. Also too many flying judo kicks with lame names he makes up on the spot. Mc just wants to copy fighting he saw in anime. I'll gloss over his succubus unbirth in ch1 where we immediately learn he inherits power but not blood from his 'mother'. That's kind of cheating to only get power despite still remaining physiologically human. Author couldn't decide to make him human or succubus so I guess gave mc all the benefits with none of the drawbacks so he could have overpowered plot armor. I can only say I am disappointed. It is hinted that there is some sort of significance about him being left in the forest in Ch1 but after 40ch the story is still dragging and hasn't bothered explaining. To sum everything up... Every single chapter just drags, MC is beta male with typical "Nice Guy" concept taken way too far, he doesn't have to will to romance or sleep with anybody, he's OP because why not, cliche story is cliche, there is no clear story so far. It seems the manga will just meander chapter by chapter aimlessly until the author decides what he actually wants to do with the story. *edited to remove ranting and remove story related details -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This last paragraph is a semi-spoiler/analysis and can be skipped. I left this because it took some time to backwards calculate this nonsense so I left it for the end. There seems to be a flaw in the time line of unbirths and it brings several concerns. The below reasoning is based on the assumption that there were few or no twins, multi births, maternity period is 1 second not 9 months and the woman didn't have multiple husbands and/or children concurrently based on her personality. The problem with the "26 other children" the mother had is that succubus apparently started having children 150 years ago because that was the reason she quit her adventuring. Therefore MC is 16 and so she had been having children for 134 years up until MC's "unbirth". Problem is MC was a special case for being extremely OP for his age and he was about 16 when she thought he was strong enough to survive on his own. Logically speaking her other children should probably be like 18 or 20 at least if they are not OP like MC. Therefore the second to last child born (the 26th) was probably at least around 20 years old to be gone when the suc mother found our MC. Problem is that means she had children from 150 years ago until 20 (26th child) + 16 (mc) years ago. This means that she had given birth 26 times from 150 years ago until 36 years ago so in other words 26 births in 114 years. That equals one child every 4.38 years on average. The problem is her life energy needs are met by being a "mother" so she should logically be giving birth every 15-20 years or so or maybe 12? Since when MC was around 12-14 she started wanting to have sex with him. Still this either means that at any given time she had been raising at least 3-4 children at a time. For example 0 yrs old 4.4 years old 8.8 years old 13.2 years old 17.6 years old so on. Based on the manga I can't even see that as possible or ever happening. It seems almost all of the "children" of hers are different races and it would be weird if the fathers of these children every 4.38 years continued to leave her knowing she needs continuous "fulfillment" so she fends for herself by finding new partners but also weird if she just continues to cast the fathers away or gets a new person to cheat with about every 4.38 years or so. Even more so the fact that 26 babies just happen to be abandoned in a dangerous forest that people don't even go to in the first place let alone bring babies. Makes no sense. No matter which way you think of it, having fathers that abandon the suc mother or that the suc mother abandons seems weird. But also not having fathers and having such an unlikely baby abandoned 26 times in a forest nobody even knows about/enters much if at all within 114 years of time is beyond unlikely. No way 26 babies managed to find their way to her in a distant A+ class forest within 114 years time and why she would have babies at a rate of one per 4.38 years on average when she can last at least 12 years from "motherly love substitution" makes no sense. I find too many things about this concept of 26 children to be illogical and make no sense and she doesn't seem like the type of person who could continuously and responsibly raise multiple children for over a century straight with how naive and irresponsible she is yet too caring to have cast her various children away. I find the thought of her raising on average 3+ children at any given time preposterous yet also the idea of only raising one at a time as that would take at least 400-500 years if she did. It's only suppose to be 134 years for 26 children or 150 years for 27 children. Looking at how the 27th children took at least 16 years then 26 children before theoretically would be 416 years if they were raised individually one at a time and let go of parenting early because they happened to be as OP as our MC (stated that our MC is an extreme case of OP so this should not be possible). Again in best case scenario mother had a child about every 4.38 years on average which is VERY EXTREMELY UNLIKELY just from the feeling I get from the manga. No matter how you spin it, none of this concept of 26 children makes sense nor how said children are also very old/have long life spans because why not.

Ten Prism review
and here I was looking forward to reading a completed Action and Seinen manga, but nope, what I got was Shoujo, Fantasy and Romance.
TBH everything started out great, it even made me cry, especially when I thought one of the Character died for real... but after a few chapters it all went downhill, I told myself to keep reading because it might change but nope, my bad. It became worst. I don't know what happened to the Mangaka, what was supposed to be all action/seinen, fighting evil empire, being the best hero turned into a shoujo romance with most characters having spilt personalities, being all sweet and innocent to psychotic mad-person. I even feel bad giving it a 3. Pity. Probably the only redeeming quality about this manga was the start of the story and it's art.

Maou Kyoudai review
This Little series was a slice of life about a Hero tasked by God to defeat the Devil. Upon the defeat of the devil he was to take care of 12 Kids that made up the devil and raise them to be good. The story itself is very simple, which to me is fine, Though i think it could have gone into a bit more depth. The Art is pretty good, all the devils have different designs and they are all very cute looking. The Characters can be a bit tricky do to a lack of color, but they are cute.
The Overall series is meant to be a slice of life and not too complicated to follow, as a slice of life it does a good job, but i do think they could have had a bit more development of the devils, they could have done with a few more unique backdrops and maybe they could have stretched it just a bit longer. Overall the series is not meant to be a Manga juggernaut, it is meant to be something that may peak your interest and to entertain you, it is a fun little series to read and i recommend it not only because of that, but because it is very easy to pick up the full series for about $50-$60

Neon Genesis Evangelion: Campus Apocalypse review
Remember reading this a year ago and feeling empty due to how disappointing it is
I actually like the concept and up for a reimagining of the anime's story but the way they did it was lack luster at best It for one is far to short and started to feel rushed towards the half way point The abrupt as hell ending is probably the worse part of all of this as if the auithor gave up and slapped it on The highlight here is the art style witch i found my self drawing some of the characters in it over all this is a missed opportunity It would be better if the writing was moar thought out and had moar chapters to pad it out
