'Fujimura-kun Mates' is a comedic manga in a high school life setting. Where the main character gets caught up in a crazy harem situation.

The joke timings in the manga are perfectly placed. And unlike school life humor such as 'Nichijou', or 'Danshi Koukousei no Nichijou' where after a joke has ended it cuts and begins another joke, in 'Fujimura-kun Mates' manage to fluidly link chapters together either through time progression (day to night to next to) or the conclusion of a joke begins another.

Conclusion: Its been a long time since I've hard such a fun time reading a manga.

TL;DR
If all the attractive women in our world were boke, I would probably die single. But our young hero made the sacrifice I wouldn't. He became... a tsukkomi.

Story: 6
Fujimura-mates has a story, but that really isn't the focus of the manga. For the most part the story is just used to transition one joke to another. The amount of story it does have is actually pretty good. It is the weakest part of the manga however. So if you are looking for manzai characters in a strong story look elsewhere. If you are looking for a manzai comedy that actually has a sort decent plot, ... this manga is perfect for you.

Art: 5
The art is average. The girls are cute, and there really isn't much to complain about on the art style. But there weren't any moments that make you stop and think "Oh this looks cool". For a comedy of this sort, art isn't the primary focus anyways.

Character: 8
To be honest, most of the characters grew annoying when they were all together. However I am not a fan of manzai style comedy and this manga still made the characters generally likable. The characters are really what sells the manga and they did a good job keeping me entertained. If you are not a fan of manzai but still want to read this, I recommend reading it in bursts rather than all at once, because the characters remain likable that way. If you are a fan you should have no problems.

Enjoyment: 5
As mentioned earlier I am not a fan of manzai, but I still had a great time with this manga. The boke when in a group annoyed me and just made me feel bad for the MC. But when they are in smaller groups or by themselves I enjoyed myself immensely. At times the humour drifts away from manzai, and I caught myself laughing. Although I gave it a 5, which is usually an average on my scale, it is anything but average. It just had equal shares of highs and lows.

Overall: 7
I can highly recommend this to anyone who likes the tsukkomi and boke relationship. If you don't I would still recommend reading the first few chapters and seeing how you handle it.

I think that Fujimura-Kun isn't that good of an anime. To me it is just so boring and repetitive, every chapter is the same, its always the boke (usually Eri) and the tsukkomi (Fujimura) it is just the same every chapter that I got bored at a certain point nothing is interesting and it just becomes predictable with the same thing done every chapter.

At times they were good and sometimes wholesome but I think that the tsukkomis brought down the experience, it is fine if it is one or 2 every chapter but it's almost one every panel it is just boring.

The characters in my ... opinion a little exaggerated I feel like the characters didn't feel real and were just very exaggerated.

I liked the author's work on Kuno Chiyo the precog and so I decided to read this manga but it was worse than I expected.

This may not be very helpful because I'm just writing what I think.
