JoJo no Kimyou na Bouken Part 7: Steel Ball Run review
Well , Ive started watching and reading 12 years ago, when I first got a glimpse of JoJo's Bizarre adventure I thought that it was stupid and stuff,but one year ago I decided to watch it and in the end I loved it,so I ended up reading the manga too:P .I consider all 8 parts amazing but the one that was absolute perfect in my opinion was Steel Ball Run.Something that I really enjoyed in part 7 was the fact that for the first time the protagonist role wasnt given only to Johnny (well in every part this role is given
to the joestar bloodline) but it was also given to Gyro who is generally my favourite character in all /.The plot and the way the story unfolds is amazing.The artstyle had so much detail (like all the other parts) but there was some kind of difference which made its artstyle special to me.Something else that made me love SBR was the characters who had great development and backstories.Moreover the new ability introduced in SBR called rotation was very intriguing and astonishing and made me love all the battles.Stands were different too and that was something that I really liked.To make a long story short, I believe that SBR is wonderful and after finishing,it became clear to me that it is my favourite piece of art like thing (,books etc). 10/10

Youkoso Jitsuryoku Shijou Shugi no Kyoushitsu e review
Classroom of the Elite is the first light novel I seriously invested time into. The story and writing are outstanding detailing all the things that are happening, and the psychological mind twists that happen. The character development is amazing! you have your protagonist Ayonokoji ( class 1-D) who just wants to have a simple high school life in Japans best high school run by the government to nurture the minds of the leaders of the next generation. Ayanokoji may appear to be a chill high school boy in the outside, however, what's really going on is not what it seem he is always pulling strings
and helping his class to reach class A in points but maybe he has an ulterior motive to all of this. The story is seen to have all types of exams and competitions between the D, C, B, A class. In conclusion, the Classroom of the Elite is a very well written light novel that should be checked out.
P.S They also have an anime adaptation but if you want to know what happens after the anime you're going to have to check out the novel. You should start at Volume 4 after finishing anime.

Watashi no Tomodachi ga Sekaiichi Kawaii review
As of writing this, only 1 chapter has been translated. So I will base the review only on that.
Judging by the tags, you should already be aware what you're getting into: A high-school yuri romance. The story seems pretty straight-forward and fast paced. The first chapter already covers days, potentially weeks (not really clear). Personality-wise, one of them is the typical small, bubbly and cute kind of person, while the other one has more of a cool and serious (but not cold) persona. Overall I really like the chemistry between both, they seem straightforward and direct in a way which makes me hope that it's not going to turn out in an eternal back and forth until some progress happens. The art is nice as well, nothing out of the ordinary though, it's your typical modern shoujo-ish art-style. I find it very pleasant to look at. Perhaps not really worth picking up as long as only 1 chapter is translated, but it's worth bookmarking in my opinion.

Parallel Paradise review
Alright... How do I start this?
I mean, the manga started minimally interesting, but it evolved enough to make itself cool, and then it dropped. A lot. First of all, I must call attention to the oversaturation of the sex scenes. Yeah, I know, "it's an ecchi manga" and etc, but... there are limits. If I was looking for that amount of sex, I'd just look for hentai. With that out of the way, I can say that it starts fairly good, but just caught my attention from chapter 22 forward - I saw potential. And then the beach arc kicked in, which made me really like the development of the story. The math girl was really charming and the new characters were interesting! I even liked the plot twist at the end of it. I expected they developed it. So I waited that they built upon the plot twist, but another arc, with a brand new villain, started, and, as it went on, it just became... boring. But my limit was chapters 74-79 that made itself clear: everything would be solved through "mating". At this moment I knew, the plot just wasn't interesting as it was before, and then I dropped. If you liked it, nice, but this just made me come out with a bad taste in my mouth. Would I recommend it? Well, not if you want a thoroughly well-developed story, but if you want a manga that's mostly sex scenes and a fairly good plot, go for it.

KOKORO RENTAL review
I'm not that big of a fan when it comes to supernatural manga, so take this review with a grain of salt. With that out of the way, let's get this review started.
The story seems pretty unique, but that may be the case because I usually only read slice of life manga. The synopsis pretty much says everything you need to know, but the ending is a nice twist to it all. The art is alright, showing enough of the aura of the characters. The only problem is the characters aren't that well made out. The main girl is just a plain hopeless romantic that goes for the easy way out (although the situation calls for some leeway as to how she reacts to the events), while the "main guy" is as characterless as possible. The only character really worth mentioning is the guy that works at the rental place. He always has a smug feel around him, making him have more depth. He gives off the feeling of being the man behind it all. Overall, this is a pretty good one shot that makes you wonder what you would do if you were in their situation. I don't feel that it truly earns the right to be called a 'horror' manga, but it is quite creepy in its own sense.

Jinbee review
Jinbe is about the the relationship of cohabitation between a man and a girl, who is none other than the daughter of that man's wife, who died after the wedding.
The plot is interesting but, even if it should be a serious story, it doesn't seem at all! The real problem is that Adachi wasn't able to stop his humor, adding unnecessary clash gags that you won't appreciate in context. And at the end, it looks like a collection of unrelated chapters with the same couple of characters and that's a big fault... It could have been better but, all in all, it's not so bad, so if you like "adult" slice-of-life stories try to give it a chance.

Bullet Armors review
Awwwww shiiiiit dawg. Its time for Bullet Armors.
Bullet Armors is a relatively short battle manga. You could read this in 2 hours, so it's not a huge commitment to pick it up. This a VERY light read with no complicated plot points or motivations. The story is obviously aimed at younger readers (not quite as insultingly low as, say, Cage of Eden, but still pretty low), maybe 11-14. The art style is similar to that of Fairy Tale, but a bit sharper with a more masculine feel. The tech in the series, namely the "tremors"/"tremble," is picked out in delicious greebly detail that got me MEGA HYPE every time a battle broke out. I was mildly disappointed with the missed opportunities with this manga; it ended far too soon. And when the only fault you have with a series is that it ended, you may as well count that as a compliment. I cannot repeat enough that you should go into this expecting a very normal shounen battle manga aimed at children, having only one or two levels of complexity over things like Mazinger. Overall, I give this series a single thumb up. It was aight.

Mission! School review
“Just your average young ladies”-Hatsugi, Haduki. These girls are anything but average. Ohmi, Takeshi, introduces you to a story full of slapstick comedy, strange characters, and mindless fun.
The story revolves around Ishikawa, Takuya. A high school boy who soon finds himself with an “average” group of high school girls. These average high school girls turn out to be more than “average” Equipped with guns, knives, bombs, and any other random weapon you can think of these girls are really trained soldiers who have set out for world domination. As serious as that might sound, there is nothing serious about it at all. The story is full of gags and random references that will give you a good laugh. The art contributes a lot to the stick of the manga. The over-exaggerated expressions in the story perfectly depict the mindless and silly style of the story. There is a lot of detail in the characters, as well as details in the execution of events that occur. Such as the noted detail in the background and the actions of the characters. The characters in Mission! School aren’t the most fleshed out characters you’ll ever see, but they don’t need to be. You have a complete wuss with a maiden heart; an Oujo-sama who is in love with the MC and is a lethal human-weapon; plenty of masochist and sadist, and a cemented cast of characters, each with their own strange quality that adds to the already bolster of randomness and fun. Mission! School is definitely a fun and whacky manga to be read for those that want to enjoy a story full of fun and random characters.

Dead Tube review
Even though I have read all the chapters (newest chapter currently is 42) so far, I will review the first 13 ones. Those chapters are the most enjoyable, later chapters leave impression that the creators are experimenting rather than sticking with the starting formula.
Story: The manga revolves around a concept - protagonists get involved into Dead Tube, a website (similar to YouTube) where you participate to win a lot of money if you get the most views, but you will suffer harsh punishment if your videos get the lowest views. Those rules make the participants push the boundaries and make more extreme videos to keep up with others, which makes more tension and interesting situations. The story doesn't contain much unnecessary dialogue and you follow the events with ease and remain interested, it also contains depth, layers and plot twists; quite contrary to later chapters which are much more some kind of simple gore fest (I didn't get the "catch-the-culprit" episode, I'd say it was a failure, though school episode wasn't bad). Art: Details are wonderfully done, also gore parts look very realistic and overall it's very well made. Character: The manga fails somewhat at this part, the protagonists are generic (a shy boy and a yandere girl) with mostly expected behaviour, though the male is making a progress with character, but the rest of the characters are simple and don't have much depth (though, they can camouflage their real intentions, trying to manipulate others). Enjoyment: Despite shallow characters, the manga is still quite enjoyable. Gore, alright story, tension and element of surprise create a good atmosphere and a decent read.
