Shingeki no Kyojin

Complete | ISAYAMA Hajime | 2009 released

I finished this back in April when the last chapter came out, and I still think about it sometimes. This manga is as good as everyone claims it to be. It's not only action-based, but it also puts focus on racism and political differences. I love the questions of "what is the right and what is wrong?" and "who are the bad guys?". This is truly a masterpiece.

Blue Lust

Complete | Hinako (ひなこ) | 2015 released

This is a beautiful manga, and I love everything about it. Seriously, everything. The pacing is good, the characters are amazing, even with their flaws. I love that Hayato had to confront his past, and that he didn't want to run away from it anymore. Seeing his perspective on everything was really interesting, and I loved that the readers see his inner conflicts and feelings. I enjoyed how Souma and Hayato found each other again after their fall out + the little time skip at the end was everything to me. (Souma looks cute with glasses).

Signal 100

Complete | Miyatsuki arata,Kondou shigure | 2019 released

I've been sitting, trying to collect my thoughts on this manga, but I'm speechless. I started reading this a couple of months ago, but I couldn't bring myself to finish it because of a lack of interest. I'm so happy I did, though. This was full of plot twists, and I had no idea what to expect, nor what would happen next. This manga will make you question everything, seriously, EVERYTHING! It plays mind games with you like no other piece of fiction I've ever read. This was such a thrilling reading experience, but keep in mind that non-consensual acts do take place in this manga. Proceed with overall caution.

Tomie

Complete | itou junji | 1987 released

This was certainly interesting, especially seeing how Itou Junju interprets obsession. The art style is fantastic, but I do wish the ending had been a little more "well-rounded" or so to speak. The manga ends abruptly, but maybe that's just me. Tomie is a person who every woman envy, and a person every man will grow to fear. Overall, a very pleasant experience with many unexpected things and situations thrown into the story.

Kami no Hidarite Akuma no Migite

Complete | UMEZU Kazuo | 2000 released

This manga is horrifying, and the fact that it's told from a small child's perspective makes it even more fucked up. It leaves the readers confused and really grossed out, and I'm still wondering if it's all happening in his head, and if he really is dreaming. With that being said, this is not what I expected, and it's disgusting, but I'm reading surprisingly quickly.

Fuan No Tane

Complete | Nakayama Masaaki | 2004 released

I have mixed opinions about this manga. I loved the many scary panels, but really wanted the stories to be longer. They don't get to evolve when they're so short, but I also understand that a lot has to be interpreted by the readers--even so a little disappointing. The first volume is the best in my opinion.

The Lighthouse

Complete | itou junji | 2019 released

The art style is stunning and very nice to look at. I wish it was longer, and contained more depth.

Return To The Hidden

Complete | ZAODAO | 2000 released

What an odd story. I don't have much to say about this, but I do wish it was longer. I wanted more of the plot and characters, and overall more depth to the entire thing, but it is meant to be a short story and nothing more.

Name Webtoon

Complete | No-e,Bori flower | 2019 released

I like the composition of the story. It's very short, but at the same time, it's surprisingly impactful. Basically, two lovers who can't be together in the same timeline = right person, wrong time.

Living Will

Complete | mina (미나),ziho | 2019 released

This is a short read, and overall very likeable. The relationship between Jeanette and Jeanne is super cute, but the ending made me feel so empty. I do, however, wish that the story was longer so the readers could get to know the characters even more, and just get more details about the plot and Jeanette profession in general + the more of Jeanette's and Jeanne's relationship.
