Mystic_Dreamer13

The world is full of mysteries and miracles! As corny as it sounds, that's what we tried to show in his work Oda-sama. Will he? Of course! This story shows us not only the life of the dreamer, striving to find something legendary, but also that the dreamer is willing to take a chance for many of his friends, even the dream. It becomes stronger, seeking recognition of his love for his hope, and he sees it. But the world is not so simple, it teaches one, sometimes painful, sometimes happy, that all the difficulties of life and its sweet moments experiencing Monkey D. Luffy and his nakama. And whatever pain life is not the reason Luffy is always fun, cheerful, thus once again proving that desperate situations when next to you is not true friends. However, if it were that easy! In order to become a stronger person, sooner or later you have to know the bitterness of defeat. And life once again proves how strong you are, the world is full of people is stronger than you. Luffy learn, and then begin the adventure! And now come more dangers, more pain, more enemies, but also more adventurous, more friends, more than the joy of victory, but not excluded, and hot lesions. «One Piece» — is a masterpiece, a masterpiece in which the characters do not just go from one place to another, as if scripted, stone-faced sweeping enemies, and live your whole life in front of us, and it's the most important thing.

One Piece is not a very good manga, and I highly suggest not reading it if you haven't started already. I also think Eichiro Oda is a mediocre writer. It's nothing but a waste of time and energy.

The story is very generic. The story is about a group of pirates that want to get treasure, and the main character wants to become "Pirate King". The story isn't interesting in the slightest, but that's not the only bad part. The plot in One Piece is formulaic, and can get boring really fast. Every single arc is essentially the same thing repeated over and over again ad nauseam. It got boring real fast.

The characters aren't very good either. Almost all of the characters are one dimensional and have absolutely no redeeming qualities. Luffy is the most basic shounen protagonist I've seen in any anime/manga. There is no character development to be found in One Piece. None whatsoever. Usopp is still a coward even though the manga is more than 900 chapters. Luffy is still being a bad captain as always. Infact, there's more character regression than development. Anytime Usopp does something brave, it wouldn't matter because next second he goes back to being a coward. Anytime Luffy acts like a captain, it doesn't matter because he'll be acting like an idiot soon. The characters and their relationships never change at all. They behave the same way they did back in chapter 1, therefore I don't find any of them interesting.

The characters become even worse after the time skip. Almost all of the characters are extremely underwhelming after the timeskip. Characters like Robin, Chopper, Zoro, etc. All of these characters are always in the background for the majority of post time skip. There's even an arc in which half the straw hats aren't even on the island for over 100 chapters. That's absolutely ridiculous.

Speaking about arcs, One Piece doesn't have any good arcs. Well I'd say Water 7 is a decent arc, but anything besides that is typical shounen garbage. As I said before, every arc feels the exact same. The crew goes to an island, befriends pepople, find out that bad guys are there, beat bad guys, and then go to another island. This is pretty much the entirety of One Piece. Now of course there are some arcs that are different, but most of the arcs follow that structure. Arcs like Alabasta, Skypiea, Thriller Bark, Fishman, Arlong Park, etc. There's just too many to name!

I'm sure everyone already knows this, but One Piece has awful pacing. Every single arc is dragged out to the point where it just becomes boring to read. Even the shorter arcs like the Baratie have awful pacing. That's just oe of the many reasons why I consider Eichiro Oda to be a mediocre writer. He's just not capable of making an arc with good pacing! I can't think of one One Piece arc with good pacing.

The fights in One Piece are very bad. They're just the typical shounen fights with two people punching each other around. The only good fight in One Piece was Luffy vs Usopp, because it wasn't just two people smacking each other around. That was the only One Piece fight that I actually enjoyed watching. The rest are absolutely awful. Almost every single fight involves the use of plot armor and asspulls. Well, at least the fights in the manga aren't nearly as bad as the anime. Either way, One Piece has poorly choreographed fights in genral. They're also dragged out for like 20 chapters.

One Piece has one of the worst art styles I've ever seen. The art just looks extremely childish and silly. The characters are drawn to be so hideous, and I have no idea why. Drawing hideous characters doesn't make your art style interesting Oda.

I just didn't enjoy reading One Piece at all. The characters are all underdeveloped and generic, the story is very childish and basic, and the art style is bad. One Piece literally has every cliche in the book. I'll still be reading it though, just to see if it gets better.

Before Death Note there was Monster. It starts a tad bit slow and to be honest a tad bit tld'r but it did redeem itself. It basically revolves around the human condition when everything is taken away from the person. It's basically an evolved Death Note on steroids but with chattier characters, add a little history and neo-nazi's

I loved the characters, The back story of the characters and the mystery.

The only things that I didn't like about it that it had a really slow start. I even skipped a few pages to be honest. Sometimes the plot got a little bit unrealistic but it still was an interesting read.

I'd recommend this though but with fair warning.

My review is about Fullmetal Alchemist. Personally, I think it is one of the best mangas with its well developed plot, beautiful art, and unique characters.


Story (10): I think that Fullmetal Alchemist has one of the best plot lines out of all the mangas I have read. The author thought out the story really carefully and developed it very well. It may seem like there are a lot of irrelevant parts in the story but they all connect together to form the bigger picture. Some of the smaller points even become a substantial role in the story.

Art (8): Hiromu Arakawa put just enough detail into her drawings so that you are not overwhelmed by the complicity but also it gives enough details to understand what the image is portraying. The expressions on the characters are well expressed and easily visible. I think she did a nice job creating the characters appearance when you think about how many different characters there are in Fullmetal Alchemist.

Character (10): Even though there are quite a lot of characters in the story, each character has a unique personality. Also the character's development is well expressed into the story by telling the readers about their past and experiences. It gives a realistic feeling to the readers because you can understand what the characters are going through.

Enjoyment (9): I really enjoy Fullmetal Alchemist and I hope that it will just keep getting better and better. I would recommend it to people who like fantasy mangas but even if you don't I think everyone will enjoy it.

Story: 10
Art: 8
Character: 10
Enjoyment: 9
Overall score: 9/10

I lot of people jumped on giving this manga a really high review. I read it as a quick read and I did enjoy myself but I would not recommend to anybody.

To be honest, it's great, it's not a masterpiece though.

The manga touches a lot on pure human existence and instinct. It's a manga a lot of people can relate to by simply being a human. Not to mention. it is very depressing and it does a great job of immersing you into the story. Honestly, it's more shocking than depressing, you feel like you are in the same position as the main character. A little boy who acts as though the world around him doesn't phase him but it's purely because he's in mental shock the entire time that blocks out his emotions.

You form a bond with the characters almost immediately, and there are barely any. There is also barely any dialogue, the story is told with it's beautiful art in such a splendid way. The art was captivating.

If you are very much into having a deep dive into human existence and getting to the deep essence of being human, loneliness and sadness alike. Sure, give it a read. It's not a a waste time of time.

Thank you.

Ahh, BECK. After rewatching anime two times, i finally gave BECK manga a shot. I don't regret one bit. The story in manga goes 70 chapters onward. Everyone who has watched anime and wants to know what happens with our loved characters afterwards should give this manga a try, too.

And if you don't know anything about this story - think about this: Have you ever wondered what would it feel like to be in a band? If you ever wish to find out, BECK would be your choice. I've seen quite many anime and manga already and this is one of the best among, really.

~The story starts with a boy who doesn't have a goal in his life. One day he meets a very strange stitched up dog and its mysterious owner. That meeting has an important meaning to his days onward. Our main character Koyuki and the readers of the manga get introduced to the music world.~

The thing you learn most of it is that going through a hard path is something that gives you the best results. Don't give up and just go forward! Be true to yourself! That kind of stories are one of the best ones because they can leave an impact in your life as well.

Something i also noticed was that when you are nice to your enemies it can even be more effective than just having a fight with them.
For example, when someone says something insulting to you and you reply like Koyuki: '' Still, you are one of the best i know because ..'' or
''But, you are excellent at what you are doing..'' etc it can actually make the other person think of what he/she said wrong to you. It's weird but it works!

So overall 10/10,
STORY was truly a masterpiece, nicely wrapped into 103 chapters, which 33 first chapters you can see in anime.

A hard path where something good can't always be on top. Something that is always on top is not always the best. Good things, bad things happen but in the end you need to believe in yourself and give it your best to make something amazing happen. It really makes you interested in music. Not to mention, this manga is the perfect example of showing why anything that is ''popular'' isn't always the best. Usually the real gems are hidden somewhere below the surface.

''Sometimes the greatest trial can lead to the greatest success.''



ART what i truly liked is how you can see characters grow, change as they mature. There are so many manga and anime where characters look the same for years, I'm happy BECK isn't one of them. This just shows how close to real life can sometimes story be.

CHARACTERS are one of the best parts of this. You will start to like every character in their own way. Its how different people make up a great group.

''I'll follow my own inspiration. It's okay for a person to have a different way of living.'' - Koyuki

Koyuki was just too good for the world he lived in ; Ryusuke was so called the ''bad boy'' who got all the girls and got into deep ****; Taira was a collected person and the most mature one. He had really nice skills. He followed by his own instincts not how others told him to (i think i want try out bass guitar one day because of him hehe); Chiba was that mambo-jambo drunken kung-fu panda - anyways, very charismatic and funny character; Yuji - always smiling, growing talent, close relative to Takeshi from Pokemon - never opened his eyes, except one chapter but I was not sure if it was him. Maho was interesting female lead, really excentric, something that you don't see in every story.

ENJOYMENT I'm not sure if I'll enjoy any other manga or anime like I enjoyed this one. Those face-drawings they made were just hilarious. And those city ''parkours'' when Koyuki was in hurry to somewhere and a cop was chasing him. Also that great sensation which not many stories give -
I think that is what makes this manga great - that unexplainable feeling of reading something nice that you won't regret. I think it's the power of band. Of a group. You feel like you are there, with them and never wishing to leave! This was just so great!


I think the questions that anime left unanswered were:

Why did that dog look so weird? Because hey, that dog looked really weird..

What was it about the dream they all saw?

.. Beck was a silly name but if you decide to read this manga you will find out why it was perfect for them.

might contain VERY LIGHT spoiler

Sequel of Kiniro no Corda or commonly known as La corda d'oro.

it's a bit hard to rate this since not much happenings yet 'coz this manga is relatively new. i love this since it continues the story after highschool. i've been trying to find mangas with continuations up until college or even after they graduated. i mean i have followed their story when their love was starting and i feel like i have the right to demand what happened after school-life. lol like i want to see their struggle to keep their relationship intact and those sort of things. they don't focus much on romance instead, they focus more on music and how they develop their skills which i think makes the romance more exciting like there's not much lovey dovey that when one happens you'll really feel happy about it. at least that's how it made me feel.

i just find it very unrealistic that almost every single male character is in love with the girl but i don't find the guys or the MC annoying. when the prequel ended i was absolutely sure who she'll end up with but with the latest chapter i'm not quite sure anymore. though surprisingly, i kinda like this pair more. lol this other guy's personality is what i often see as supporting guy in other mangas who doesn't really have the intention of pursuing his feelings for the girl. but i think this one has the potential to be a very good partner for the MC.

so far i am enjoying the story. i am only at chapter 9. i know a lot could happen and it's starting good so i hope it continues to get better. i also enjoy the humor in this manga. it's not intense but it would somehow make you smile and say "how cute"

Different but also a very good and sexy School manga.
The Manga is about the Eiken Club. The most Members are Girls the only one Male Member is Mifune Densuke. he is new in the Eiken Club. He was forced to Join the Club by the Club leader a Girl with MegaTits (ok the most Girls in Eiken have mega tits) named Kirika. In the Club is also Chiharu the most Popular Girl in the school and Mifunes secret love.
And so the Story beginns.

The manga has not a real Story (maybe in the last volumes?) but the most Volumes tells us Chapters about the activities of the Eiken Club.
From School trips, Holidays, Events and a lot and so on.

Actually a normal Harem manga with Ecchi, slice of life and Love Comedy but look at the beginn of this review.
The Girls have realy mega tits. When you start to read the manga maybe is it a little strange. At example Krikas boobs are larger than herselve. But the result is new Comedy elements that you not have seen in any other Ecchi manga.

For all fans of big breasts and for all who want to read a very Craze, sexy Ecchi love comedy is Eiken a must to read.

Hi, I'm kinda new to reviewing stuff (actually this is my first one), as there are no reviews of this manga at the time, I'm here to fill this empty space.
WARNING: SPOILERS AHEAD!!

Story: 5/10

Considering how short it is, I guess the story is OK I didn't see any real meaning to the whole story when it came to the Room. It just seems like a convenient way to set a stage for the author's ideas. Or maybe all stories are like that? I might be being harsh here, I don't know. The plot twist was fine, and I also like game over endings, since that doesn't happen very often these days.

Character: 7/10

In a weird way, the characters are more the story than the idea of the Room. What I mean by that is that the characters all have kinda interesting backstories. I particularly liked the gamer guy who died super early. He thought he was gonna be a hero and got eaten so fast (lol) (wait that's not funny...) Most importantly is the brothers, wherein a plot twist, we find out who the real murderer was. I thought that the murderer's reasoning to kill his brother's wife was a little shallow. Seeing how rational he can be (making that plan to kill the monster), yet so irrational at the same time, it is kinda interesting but doesn't make sense to me. Then again, the guy is delusional apparently so maybe it doesn't need to make sense. Lots of the character decisions are questionable but it's really hard for me to say that they were impossible since I've never been in that sort of situation before. But being "brave" enough to kill yourself but not brave enough to at least try to stab the monster or maybe throw the knife at it, or beg to the guy to not shoot you seems to be more favourable. (Quotations on brave so no one gets the wrong idea, just lack of a better word.)

Art: 7/10

It's not beautiful or anything, but the art gives off that creepy atmosphere really well which is perfect for the story. The characters all looked fine. Not much to say here, the art definitely doesn't take away from the story.

Enjoyment: 8/10

Honestly despite how unrealistic everything seemed I was sucked in the reading right away and finished the whole thing pretty fast. I like fun and short reads so this was right for me.

Overal:l 7.0/10 Fun read, but don't expect anything heavy or substantial message from it. Just a quick time passer.

Have you ever wished you could fly away and leave your mediocre life and sad past behind you?

A girl can flutter around embraced by nature, comprehending animal and plant languages, and blasting away her insecurities with a gush of wind. She has always been searching for a nest, but the emptiness of not having a place to come back to is filled with the feeling of liberty.

It is impressive how a one shot manhwa which got third place in an amateur contest is far keener than some highly regarded manga with thousands of pages. This statement would seem false if you let prejudice dominate the first impression of simplicity that the drawings and the infantile features appear to imply. However, it’s because of this same childlike development that this work manages to find profoundness.

Lewis Carroll’s Alice is considered by a lot of people a childish story – mainly because of Disney. But it is in fact a fountain of inspiration for many artists, from poets to CLAMP, once it carries on its outward appearance of nonsense to an extreme creativity and even a political vein. The same can be applied to some extent here.

It cannot be said that the art is great. It’s the plain art style of a beginner’s work but, since the story has an initially mild attribute, it fits the plot pretty well: complex artwork would not match the purpose of this narrative. You can feel like you are being transported to those times when you read or heard from your parents a story that you knew could not be truthful but you accepted it with enjoyment. And in the allegedly inconsequential nature of it all, you could find some things to think about it.

The main human character is a girl that searches for her place in a panoramic view. Although there are other characters that, if not human in form, hold a human heart: a bird that protects its children, its future, and a tree that lost its friend in the flux of time and now is completely alone in this cold winter are the company this girl keeps in her free world.

Yet given all these misleading simplicities, complexity is going to barge into this unpretentiousness like the wind that carries this girl away as the end approaches. This is not something that is going to take a lot of time for you to read, but it’s something that is going to take you a lot of time to reflect upon.
