why aren’t more people reading this? this is rly rly good surprisingly! reminds me of capeta. the pacing for the timeskip felt a bit awkward to me though. anyway, the mc’s relatively unique (?) i like him even w/ his obsession with mobile suit gundam lmao. his innate talents are his insanely good memory/cognitive thinking and his ability to kind of copy what he sees. I thought this would be pretty generic at the start because of the obvious romance subplot (and fan service…), but I like the direction the author writes the FL in. She’s a great racer and won’t let setbacks get in the way of her dreams. This manga’s selling point is definitely the racing action, which kept me hooked! The characters could benefit from more development at the point in time, but I recommend!! Would love more chaps *sobs*
Tetsunaki no Kirinji
Bro I read all 55 chapters of this and I feel scammed… It’s over just like that? I don’t think everything really got resolved. Even the fight with the doctor guy. Honestly just feels unfinished. I did like how it was about mahjong and the underlying themes of family. Wouldn’t read this unless you’re desperate for mahjong action. This just left me unsatisfied.
Octave
I can’t even begin to describe this manga after completing it… It was definitely mature in that the story has a way of making you feel complicated. All the relationships between the characters (idk but I really liked Mari)… Has bittersweet tone to it. Anyway, I definitely liked this. It did a splendid job at illustrating a sapphic relationship with all its ups and downs. Very realistic and raw. This is a manga that will be remembered for years to come.
Famiresu Iko.
Great continuation! Love that Satomi’s feelings are being explored. His dynamic with Kyouji is quite interesting. I also love that the other characters HAVE character as well. The storytelling is just so well done and unique. I don’t know if this will go in a romantic direction, but we’ll see.
Dance! Subaru
“Ending” was garbage and rushed. What the hell man? Some random dude gets introduced in the last five chapters, and Subaru quits the country WHAT??? what pmo even more is that he’s some random old man who sleeps with her ugh. so nonsenseical update: okay so that was my rage filled immediate feelings after i finished reading… but this is literally a MASTERPIECE; i don’t get why more people are appreciating this! maybe it’s bc it’s too old or the themes are too dark? Subaru’s character development and dance is simply mesmerizing. The way she expresses all her experiences, her trauma— through dance is so beautiful. I also like how this manga acknowledges the influence black people have had on dance, especially hip hop.
