STORY: 7
Kanojo wa Rokurokubi is about the everyday life of a teenage Rokurokubi, a person who can stretch their neck incredibly far. It takes place in a world where things like Rokurokubi and other strange supernatural beings are nothing out of the ordinary and live along side humans normally. Unlike most supernatural series, there is no bias for or against these individuals allowing them to use their powers freely and openly. There is no real plot (it's an SOL comedy after all) but the story does

It's a great series with a unique premise but I feel there's a lot of untapped potential by the end of it.
Asides from being a unique point for drama, the dichotomy between humans and youkai could be explored in a more fulfilling way. Characters are introduced and forgotten quickly in this series and the whole thing comes off as a unique pretense for a typical romance story. The story falls somewhere between modern fantasy and romance, without fully committing to either. I feel like it was made simply because monster girl series have been popular lately and while it tries to add something new to the growing ...

In the past, I've encountered stories that attempt to be a slice-of-life setting about otherworldly beings or bizarre phenomenon. One way to assert the story's quality is to check if it establishes a setting to which it caters the outside element well enough to be normalized. If it does inject something you don't expect to be found in an everyday scenario, it must justify its existence by presenting a predicament that becomes the central focus of the story. Kanojo wa Rokurokubi falls short of exploring its eccentricities, and it has to do with how it unfolds its story.
The manga begins with an impression of ...

It is, for the most part, your typical high school rom-com spliced with a gimmick to make it stand out a bit. And it works really well for the majority of the series.
The monster/youkai girls are all like-able and even funny at times. They don't fall squarely into the stereotypes that are currently being abused by manga authors, ex: tsundere, yandere, delinquent, gyaru, though I have seen people describe them as having tom-boyish qualities, which I can kind of see. Personally, that's a bonus for me. Their tom-boyishness means that they're not quite as oblivious and sensitive as some other manga characters and call ...

*Disclaimer*
Just personal scratch. Advised, possible spoilers. Opinion & Informal Art: 6/10 Quite nice looking. It's sorta unique, sorta sorta. Character proportions were good. Character designs were acceptable. Girls were fairly cute. Main guy looked pretty good. Panel Progression: 5/10 Nothing really fancy done in terms of panel progression and panel layout. Simple flow and nothing too confusing. There were some parts that could have used some extra panels for more clarification or flow. No two-page spreads or impact-panels which is a minus for this manga. Characters: 6/10 Sorta likable. Main guy was boring and uninteresting. The main guy was just there to be there to make it a ...

When I saw that manga, I thought that it could be a normal romcom manga with a sobrenatural tag, but... NO! The art is incredible,
Story 7/10 - The story is good but gets lost in the middle of the manga, it went through prejudices with the "monster people", "segregation", a good romance with prejudiced parents, a good friendship and acceptance about your "super power". Art 9/10 - A really good art, I get surprised when I started to read, my expectations was to be a normal art, but it is a detailed art, still in a simple way, a great entrance to the arts that ...

While this starts out with promise, it ends up shooting itself in the foot.
It randomly adds Yokai and Human politics in a very half assed manner. It had an "almost break up" scene where they talk about how monsters and humans have very different ways of life when there is almost NO actual difference... It's like, randomly added half assed racism. The ending is stupid as well. ... |
