the time paradox ghost writer is a manga that heavily copies 2 shows; steins;gate and bakuman
a combination between the goat and a great show/manga will result in a great manga right?

WRONG!

the problems with it are the exact same problem the editor tells mr.maincharacter in the first chapter, nothing is bad, but nothing is good either there is nothing to be found in it, it's worthless, empty.

what would you like to see in a manga? the answer is most likely not in the time paradox ghost writer.

the characters are as plain as it gets, what even drives the main character to do whatever he ... does? we never know, he just does it, there is hardly any conflict and thus hardly any story
until the "main plot" starts.

the characters are also like the characters in his manga, they are just energetic without any substances, it really does feel like the manga is criticizing itself.

someone might say that s;g was like that too, but the difference is that s;g was building up the world, the plot and the characters.

the time paradox ghost writer doesn't build up anything, nothing at all, and thus when the BIG PLOT TWIST (that they totally didn't copy from s;g) kicks in, i simply have no reason to care.

the characters are the same characters you will see everywhere else, if you watch anime you have seen them many times before

the story goes exactly where you think it will go, a battle manga between the mangakas, but we already saw that in bakuman, the fact that there is a life on the line doesn't add any tension, tension is created by being attached to the characters, not by having something big on the line.

but to be fair to the show, the art is pretty solid, it is probably the only good thing you will see in this manga.

overall rating: 2/10 (but i guess you already know)
