Shingeki no Kyojin review
Alright, I just finished my marathon reading the last chapter up to date.
I don't think there is a more difficult manga for me to review except AOT since there is so few mangas like it. I've never experienced anything like it. When I first started hearing about all the hype behind the manga I just had to start getting involved and know more about it but I just couldn't quite enjoy nor feel this involvement that everybody was so hyped about while reading the first chapters. You know nothing about the characters yet disaster is coming upon these people you're supposed to care about and you're put into this universe so mysterious and intriguing while not really sure if you're interested in knowing more about it since it can be a lot of informations to digest. The anime definetly helped me with its great pace and intense rhythm to always keep my heart running and on track with everything occurring. The universe of Attack On Titan isn't beautiful, neither is the art really. Nothing in the manga really is. Except in its ability to show the complexity and depths of humanity. This manga is not trying to sell us a great trip on a fantasy world full of dreams and hopes. It exposes to us the works and minds of humanity in the most realistic way. It's the most realistic manga I've ever read, every decision being made in it doesn't feel stupid or unnecessary cause it would truly would have been done in the world we live in. The way the morals and social behaviors are portrayed are simply breathtakingly realistic. There are displayed in a way where you almost feel like there are no heros, no good or bad guys but just mere people trying to fight for what they think is right. There are depicted some important realities humans live by not knowing if what you fight for is right but merely because you were taught so by your national education. There are many moral and emotional subjects that AOT adresses but this one is the biggest so far. But this obviously isn't the reason why we were all sucked into this story. The atmosphere is where it's at. Although I didn't feel it at first this is where all the intensity comes from. This very mysterious universe waiting to be discovered, the perpetual danger constantly threatening us. There is never a time to sleep or rest in this world and so very few moments aren't intense and crucial. As the manga goes on the intensity only grows although there can be time for flashbacks and moments where the story needs to be unfolded but it only makes the drama more and more intense and unexpected. Story 10/10 This manga does a perfect job to tell a story. It really feels like Isayam as worked on this story to the end, every plot details conjunct perfectly from the beginning to the latest chapters. Every single thing make so much sense that it's scary while having so much twists and turns with almost every single chapters I tip my bonnet to you Isayama-san. Art 7/10 Welp I think point it's clear with this rating. Not great but not bad either. Great backgrounds and landscapes. I feel like the faces are weird a little too often. The fights are great but could be better I think, especially human fights but titans are perfect. I appreciate the fact that it's not pretty cause it doesn't try to so I could give it one more point for that. Character 9/10 Could've given it a 10, I just think there could have been more charismatic characters. Now it's the issue cause the main point is to not show charisma to not give away unrealistic feelings that we can't compare to, so the point is to picture normal people that kinda look like us. But still I wish there was more badass looking characters kinda like Levi or Erwin so 9. Enjoyment 11/10 I don't think I've been this involved and excited about a manga ever. I think every manga gives you different types of feelings so I can't compare but still, the intensity in it is so overwhelming I don't think anything could compare. Actually anything. Overall 10/10 I already said my piece in the beginning. Where some manga (considered masterpieces) are great and there stray from there core and story AOT manages to be always focused on it as it's ground which makes is so great. While still be able to be in awe and expetancy, it's a remarkable work only to accomplish that. Redondance, boredness and lack is something this manga doesn't know. Perfect. Masterpiece. (changed character from 9 to 10 considering the variety of morals implemented that is a masterpiece work of its own. It requires so much objectivity it's almost non-human I just can't give it a 9)

One Piece review
If you could you have everything the world had to offer, would you aspire to it? With the dying words of the late Pirate King, Gold Roger, every pirate in the world set sail for the Grand Line searching for the infamous treasure he left behind, One Piece.
Here enters in the protagonist of our story, Monkey D. Luffy, a 17 year old boy who dreams of nothing more than become Pirate King himself. Thanks to the power of the Gomu Gomu no Mi, he gained the power to stretch his body to amazing lengths and become rubber. In this, he also became forever unable to swim. Did that annoyingly long intro pull you in? Hope so. Now with most Shonen series exsist countless flaws with Story, Characters, Plot, etc. One Piece is not your generic long-running shonen manga. It is much more than that, it showed me a new side of Shonens' in an entirely new way that grabbed me in and keeps me there til this day like no series has before. I'll explain. STORY: I already explained this aspect. Fairly basic but really expands into something extraordinary. It's slow at first but truly becomes greater and greater and adds to plot that keeps you on end. It doesn't repeat itself, doesn't bore you, & doesn't leave you not craving more. It has cracked me up, moved to uncontrollable tears, and made a reason to have a true obsession. CHARACTER: One Piece shines the greatest in this aspect. All the characters are well-developed & lovable. Even supporting characters are extremely well developed and become an integrated part of the story. When I say One Piece would be nothing without it's characters, I mean it. The crew itself makes One Piece all the more enjoyable for me. ART: This turns SO many people away from this wonderful series. For the longest time, I was the victim of this 'judge-an-manga-by-its-art' disease. (That was an Usopp reference btw.) I hated it. It was ugly to me and I stayed far from it. The art improves gradually. Oda's style from the start to end is quite a difference, but its still the same but I honestly adore it and would want it no other way. OVERALL: When I decided to first started One Piece, which I watched the entire anime first and still watch it, I was like, "Hey, I think i'll watch this, it looks okay." Little did I know I had started what would become my favorite series ever. Call One Piece overrated, stupid, plotless, etc. Read it. I PROMISE you, you'll definitely change you mind. C:

Madonna wa Glass Case no Naka review
This manga manages to balance between gross and beautiful. A man who faps to reptiles, owns a gecko and works at a reptile shop meets a girl who looks like a university student who is fascinated with the animals he's interested in.
Story:- There's not much of a story to this except for how they both relate to each other by being different and distant from other people while learning how to love and care for the reptiles. The girl has her own difficult life which is revealed slowly as we go through the story. Not particularly interesting but not completely boring either. Art:- Quite attractive to show the various types of species of reptiles, the differences in physical characteristics and their way of living. Character:- Pretty average but enjoyable at the same time. One is the manager of the shop who is simply, put glasses and guides the protagonist of this series. There's another co-worker of his, who is straight-forward and talkative. The girl is sweet, scared and naughty at times. Meanwhile, the main guy tries to keep up with her by trying to be a supportive adult at the same time. (keeping his dark desires at bay LOLI ALERT!!!) If you're fine with weird fetishes and unusually large-age gaps between people along with a passion reptiles, and having a thing for angst, you will enjoy this manga.

Samurai 8: Hachimaru Den review
It's unfortunate that this series was cut short. It had potential. I mean, cyborg samurai riding gigantic robotic beasts with their magical space princesses and wielding soul-powered swords?
It's a very cool concept. And I'm always a big fan of the traditional-futuristic hybrid aesthetic. Undoubtedly, the biggest draw for me was the worldbuilding, which seemed to have had a lot of care put into it, with many setups put in place (that were of course left without a resolution). It felt like we had a whole wild world to explore, akin to some other space opera manga. The few characters that got the time to have one benefited from emotional backstories (of the kind fans of a certain other manga are accustomed to). To me those were the most engaging parts. I was curious about the direction the characterization was going with the two mains, Hachimaru and Ann: I thought the retooling of the uber classic knight-princess dynamic (couple with many cues from the samurai lore) into a sci-fi world was unusual and quite intriguing, and could've made an interesting story if it had had the time to be developed. Ironically but understandably so, in both art and characterization, as well as some aspects of its story, this series feels a lot more like Naruto than its own sequel, Boruto, does. It would be a lie to say that wasn't one of the reasons I enjoyed it. This is far from a perfect story however. A major issue the series had throughout was that there is a looot of exposition, to the point a significant proportion of the story was just exposition. Some chapters are literally only an information dump. The pacing was definitively off because of that. Since the manga was just starting, I kept hoping it would become more story-focused later on, but since it's dead now, we'll never know that and so we're left with only this relatively heavy story progression. Another thing is that the cast of characters accompanying the protagonist on his quest grows pretty large pretty fast. They all end up somehow underdeveloped because of that, and it also contributes to bog the pacing down. The story would probably have benefited from introducing them more slowly, or shedding some of them temporarily to reintroduce them later on. But in retrospect, if this series was on the verge of being cancelled, maybe that's why they were introduced so fast... Again it's a shame this series was cancelled, I believe it really had the potential to be something epic. In the end that's what this series is: tons of potential that didn't manage to be realized before it got cancelled. I'd say the author wasn't effective at conveying the story, or who knows, maybe was under too much time constraint with the imminent cancellation. And that is too bad. The last two chapters hastily tried to wrap the entire story to give it a semblance of an ending, and to me they perfectly showcase all the excitement and cool factor this series could've shown. So all in all? I think what we got, despite numerous writing issues, and even though it's almost a shadow of what could've been, is still entertaining. But it'll be up to you to see if it does it for you or not.

Gantz:G review
Since there's not a single review on the spin-off i thought i should write one
I never wrote a review before but since im a big fan of gantz i thought i should guide the fans of the Gantz Story is like the same as the main series its a spin-off but we get to see one character from the main series more like his/her existense was proved so i cant say if its an alternate reality.Hopefully it will be revealed. Art kinda looked like shoujo when i started reading it but now i think its normal though its not that good compared to main series tbh i dont wanna write much since its just started i'll just tell u guys one thing if u liked Gantz u should probably give this spin off a try since its really enjoyable and dont get too attached too the characters cuz u know Gantz.

KIJIN GAHOU review
If you're new to Shintaro Kago, or guro in general, this is not the place to start. That being said, if you've read some of his other stuff and are attracted to extremely dark subject matter, you'll greatly enjoy this; it was the most brutal collection of his stories I have thus read.
**You probably shouldn't be reading things like this at all if you're easily triggered, but nonetheless, major trigger warnings for self harm and rape** A short review of each chapter that was available in English: The Collection contains fantastic character development, satirizing, defining, and distorting the idea of collection and collectors, as portrayed through the protagonist. Her sadistic blindness contrasted with her subjects' growing sense of fear had me violently wishing the manga would end in justice. I won't say whether or not it did, but regardless, the ending is fantastic. Harakiri was hard for me to personally stomach (haha) because it dealt with self harm, which is a rough subject for me to look on objectively, so admittedly the following is very biased. I suppose this story could be interpreted as humor, but I did not find it funny, though it effectively commented on how people, teens in particular, can so mindlessly subscribe to trends. The characters in the manga were interesting to follow to see what choices they made, but ultimately, I wouldn't count this as the strongest chapter. Suck It. Oh boy. This is probably the single most disturbing thing I have ever seen, read, or heard. Do not go into this manga lightly. Heed the warnings of those who have been scarred. Seriously. If you feel uncomfortable with the chapters that came before this one, skip it. Still, it had enormous emotional capability and a terrifying progression, making it probably my favorite piece. This is not an easy thing to forget; it will make an impression and stick there. Thank god Fetus Collection is the next chapter, because any reader will need a breather, and this provides it. Kago returns to his typical humor and satire with this fun little tale of the art of aborted fetus arranging. The only downside is the end; it was abrupt and unsatisfactory. Unscratchable Itch was solidly good. It had graphic and effective art, creepy characters and atmosphere, and a superbly creative premise. Once again, the end disappoints, being a bit cliche, but its very worth reading through. Last but not least is Holy Night, a fantastic little concept executed nicely. Its length, characters, art, and story were all well developed and though it ended on a somewhat mediocre note, it made for a perfect conclusion to this anthology. Happy Kijin Gahou-ing.

Hana ni Nare review
I really liked this manga. I love most shoujo mangas so if you love shoujo, this one's definitely worth reading.
Story is about a normal nerdy looking girl who just lost her grandmother [her only known living relative] and ends up living with a beautiful boy. He helps her transform into a very cute/pretty girl and soon begins to become really popular with the guys and hated by girls. She is a pure hanabi, meaning that she is a flower in human form. This manga has lots of beautiful guys and girls. Definitely recommend it :)

Usotsuki Paradox review
Long distance relationships suck.
NOTE: Theres some sex in this manga! After reading this manga you will definitely realize this much. The story follows a man working in a company and instantly falling in love with a girl who was in a long distance relationship, as they work together the girl starts to like him as well but she is rather loyal and says they will never have sex but rather be "friends with benefits", this beautiful story is a tale of how much it can suck to be in love sometimes. Characters : Amazing development, it was really awesome to see how the female who did not really think of the male at first come to like him. 9/10 Art : Not the best but good nevertheless 7/10 Enjoyment : Definetely 10/10 , I loved the drama and the relationship in this too much All in all I would reccomend this too anyone who likes drama and romance, this is a truly amazing story and it allows you to sympathize with the characters very well. Must read for anyone loving romance.

CROSS EPOCH review
Ah, let's see here. The characters are nothing like themselves from their respective manga. The saving grace is the art. The story is...what? Look, this was the most unenjoyable read since Medaka Box. Just save yourself the awfulness and keep your eyes away from this one-shot.
Oh, and I couldn't even tell if Vegeta was a villain in this, and where was Gohan?? Wasting of the dragon ball, why does Piccolo need a train when he can fly? Why is Krillin a conductor? Master Roshi choosing sex over saving people? Though a good jab at his personality, it is in no way how he would've acted in Dragon Ball.
