• Genres: Drama / Fantasy / Romance

4/5

pros/
+ i love isekai stories where the main chara is not the person who got isekai’d LOL
+ we see the villainess from the male protag’s perspective, and their partnership is cute
+ usually i dislike male-oriented isekais but this one is cute AND he’s actually hot. so i approve

cons/
+ the manga does its very best to justify the tech inventions the main pair come up with but sometimes it’s a little hard to suspend my belief LOL

2/5

+ an old man gets isekai’d into a young noble girl’s body and accidentally experiences gender euphoria LOL
+ the title is suggestive but i think it’s truly a mistranslation - it leans more towards a trans metaphor of a person who was restricted by masculinity that can finally enjoy “girly” things freely
+ the focus on doll fashion is so silly and reveals a lot abt protag

cons/
+ i think it has interesting implications as a trans story but it’s not really explored too heavily

pros/
+ a reverse isekai! so fun. protag is a saintess wizard who gets summoned into modern japan and is now enjoying a cozy life as a regular worker
+ art is so atmospheric!
+ really curious to where the story is going to go

cons/
+ very extremely short so far
+ who i’m assuming is the ml is kinda ugly… heheh

• Author: Namakura,Toriu chinori
• Genres: Adaptation / Comedy / Fantasy / Romance / Villainess

1/5

pros/
+ i like the insanity of the antagonist and how she loves the protagonist’s suffering. what can i say. i love the implication of toxic gay people.

cons/
+ the story is so hard to parse, what with the protag’s 108 lives and the machinations of the antagonist. like it can’t decide if it wants to be a slice of life baby regression manga or a psychological fantasy thriller
+ why is the entire story in baby mode oh my god. i couldn’t finish it

a fan’s obsession with an idol goes horribly wrong as he dies in an electric freak accident and his consciousness gets trapped into the web of electrical devices. the mind games between this otherworldly consciousness and the quirky law enforcement remind me of death note antics, though with none of the homoerotic tension. an interesting thought experiment about the pervasiveness of electronics. 7/10

miyo is the daughter of a wealthy family, though she is treated like a servant by her spiteful stepfamily. this cinderella-esque story is set in a japan on the cusp of change: mechanical cars run on dirt paths, and women have the option of wearing the traditional kimono or outlandish western clothes. in this bustle, miyo learns what it means to be cherished, and how much power there is in words. a sweet love story + great themes! 8/10

ongoing. action, fantasy, steampunk

in a patriarchal world where fighters compete with full-bodied steam armor, a girl dares to fight using only her fists. i have a soft spot for steam punk and i love the main cast of characters: a bubbly and righteous protagonist, her mysterious coach, and the hardworking mechanic who’s trying to unlock the mysteries of the protagonist’s armor. it’s like if winry from fullmetal alchemist got sick spin-off. very fun so far, and the art is just vivacious! 8/10

4/5

pros/
+ the one punch man of the villainess genre
+ tone is so funny and main chara is soooo cute. she’s reserved but not stoic… i love her
+ there’s a cute dynamic between the love interests heheh even though she’s the strongest person alive, he worries abt her wellbeing. cute!

cons/
+ pacing isn’t necessarily slow, just not sure what climax they are heading towards lol
+ not a huge development of theme

ongoing. slice of life, romance, high school

the tagline emphasizes a couple who are complete opposites, so i was pleasantly surprised when it actually has a broader focus on the friend group! this is such a gem - every character is so well thought out and their struggles and insecurities feel so nuanced and real. a lot of these charas have incredibly relatable thought processes and it’s nice to see kids figuring out friendships and love in a realistic and funny way! 8/10

1/5

pros/
+ it’s cute that it is family oriented

cons/
+ the pacing sucks so bad; she escapes the temple and causes a ruckus and gets picked up by a villain
+ conversations are so meandering and typical; the convos between a newly isekai’d lady and a Cold Duke go as expected
+ only thing thats Unique is the kids and they only seem like a plot device to be a Big Sis/Mom to them
+ could not get past 12 chaps bc the main conflict of “ is she the saint who escaped?!?!” is dragged out

4/5

pros/
+ unpopular opinion but i like playboy romantic leads bc their chara arc has somewhere to go
+ very jane eyre
+ love triangle is angsty and messy in a compelling way LOL
+ i like the mc’s backbone!

cons/
+ time skip felt irrelevant since it feels like he barely changed and learned anything LOL and i feel like not enough attention is given to the fact that he put her in uncomf positions bc of power imbalance
+ bg charas feel rly shallow

1/5

pros/
+ kinda funny sometimes

cons/
+ it’s a food manga that has absolutely no soul; kinda made me mad that she could so easily obtain things like soy sauce and miso in another world… from fruit
+ like in the first place it doesn’t make sense that these flavors wouldn’t get discovered by the time kingdoms are established… like
+ there’s a lack of care in the research of how to prepare and make food in the first place, with a focus on how food looks and how it tastes. lame

4/5

pros/
+ it’s a colored manga and it is so gorgeous
+ what a fun premise! the protag finds a gamer guide to the world she’s living in and sees it as a dangerous artifact that predicts the future. each chapter has been an interesting little story so far!
+ i love love love the protag’s chara design like! instantly iconic. the pigtails! the baggy pants! so harmonious and so cute!

cons/
+ i read this way too early it’s so short :,) so not much to comment on in general i fear
