A short review that I don't even know where to start and contains spoilers. I started reading this because I was very bored and just decided on a random one..that happens to be a Hwang Mi-ri manhwa. For I am not a very big fan of.



Story:5/10
If I was to describe this manhwa it would be that the author of the manhwa had put in a bunch of every single cliche korean drama moment into one manhwa. There is the highschool setting, the secret pregnancy, DNA, unrequited love, evil mother, hungry money parents, spoiled brother and sister, death problems, and bullying. There is nothing new, ... easy to predict story but then the characters are worst.

Characters:4/10
We have the girl who accidentally gets pregnant. She looks ordinary and is in a poor family. She doesn't care for the money that the guy has but for the safety of the kid only. Then We have the male protagonist who's rich, arrogant, his father died, he's good looking, and has an unrequited love for a girl who's two years older. The second male lead is the nice guy. Which he falls in love with the girl really fast that I don't really understand why.. Maybe out of sympathy. Then there are her parents. They want money.. When the girl is of no use, they ignore her. They tell her that the baby is better off dying. But the character I'm more upset with is the girl herself. She is naive, looks like a nice girl, but is just so ... Stupid. She is like a cycle of mood swings..

Art:7/10.
Right away I knew this was a Hwang Miri manhwa. The art was fair average. I can look at it.

Enjoyment:6/10
Even though I wasn't impress with this manhwa, I still read it. When reading this, I get soo MAD sometimes, I just wanna punch the screen. Rant to my sisters. Read again, and rant again.

Overall:5/10
I guess this turned out to be more of my personal rant than a review. And I recommend this manhwa to people who likes Hwang Miri. Or Han yu ran. Or a lot of drama.

Short review:
This one shot was created by two people, the art from Obata, Takeshi (Death Note, Hikaru no Go, Bakuman), and the story from Morita, Masanori (Rookies). Which I thought was pretty cool and so I decided to read it. I don't know any words that can describe this one shot but it sure was a ride. The art was absolutely beautiful and the story was really a tragic of betrayal.
I don't know about you guys, but I really enjoyed reading this one shot. The characters in here weren't really revealed nor developed, but it had the potential of becoming a series. So ... overall, I gave it a 8/10.

This was a heartwarming one shot manga. Well, I think that this should be in the shounen-ai category as well since it is a bromance story.

The story is about a Japanese guy who had an incident while on a trip and ends up as a "servant" for an American family. Then the story goes on with his relationship with the young master. The art and characters in here was pretty simple and was clean. An easy to read one-shot and the enjoyment was wonderful. You could feel what a emotional ride they're going to go through when he grows up.

Overall, this one shot ... I rate is 8/10. I recommend it to people who like heartwarming stories, friendship, and bromance.

Story: 6/10.
Very typical shoujo storyline and how it was developed.

Art: 7/10.
Very shoujo drawing.

Character: 7/10.
The character's relationship with each other was like chiaki and nodame and little mix of dengeki daisy.

Enjoyment: 6/10.
... It was a short romantic read, but then it was really predictable and also

Overall: 6/10, I recommend this manga to people are fans of shoujo manga.

Literally, my second korean webtoon I've read.. and it happened to be one of Ha Il Kwons, which is also the author of Annarasumanara, my all time favorite and first webtoon I have read.. I picked up this webtoon just for the sake of time and it happened to be quite interesting.


I kind of like the story. Which is a robot story. It deals with the idea of humans and robots together. Now that I think about it, it's kind of a philosophical/psychological idea of the story. Robot replacing a human, or that sometimes they are what a person need/support.


Art was disgusting. Well, ... at first. It wasn't all that or was the characters as good looking, especially the main character. At first you'd see like nose drip coming out of his nose and all.. but then I came to notice it was an important thing for the character. It also shows the facial expression of the characters too. Sometimes there were blurring and gradient color which is also really nice. The housing and settings were beautifully drawn/color. Very nice variations of colors.

There was an obvious character development of this story. The MC and the robot really developed something. I really enjoyed this webtoon because of the emotions brought out. There were cases of bullying, outcast, little romance, finding something important to you, and etc.

I recommend this to webtoon readers, or anyone who's bored and is looking for something to read.

"I'm just a weak japanese girl!"

Wooo, that line, man. I never thought I see that line come up anywhere in a shoujo manga. Well, it is likable that it's mention here because it shows somewhat a view or how most shoujo manga girls are like, in my opinion.
After reading this manga, it has reminded me of why I started to read more shounen manga more than shoujo.

Story: 7/10
Basically about a japanese girl who is in high school who goes on a trip to taiwan and meets a guy. Ever since then, they start faxing each other. And they deal with the issues of ... a long distance relationship.

Art: 6/10
The art was good, i really like how the guys were drawn out.. really, the 90's or something... or like 2000's. The face and attitude of guys really matched.

Character: 7/10.
Some of the characters were strong, especially the editor and keren. Their relationship is strong and supportive. I seriously did not like the main lead girl. She reminded me of why I started reading shounen , I was literally shouting at the computer and feel that she is just so stupid. (sorry for my view here, but I was at rage at that time, lol). The main guy was likable and understanding. It seems like all of Yukari Kawachi's main lead guys are all the same.

Enjoyment: 7/10
It was a well-paced manga. Though I did go a little crazy over the fact of the baka main girl, it is a shoujo manga... which I believe makes people like it.. right? ..

Overall: 7/10.

I decided to watch this on a random day and yeah, a short review.

Story: 7/10.
The story did not interest me nor I really understood it until I watched it. It wasn't catchy but then I still follow through. This type of story seems to be done before. But then there are some parts that they could really improved on, its that 'they couldve done so much more' . Such as, strengthing platoon 17 and their teamwork would be good. Or something else. Because this whole 24 episide seems to be like the beginning of a longer anime, basucally an arc of one though. Especially ... the last episode seemed like it there was going to be more. And the harem, plus a lil ecchi included. I wasn't really fond of it but then it doesn't take away the story..

Art: 7/10.
The art wasn't too bad. The thing that stood out to me the most were the eyes.. like the black ring around the eyes and all... there were moments when they fought ans some scenes were smooth and liked that.

Sound: 9/10.
One of the best in the anime. When the fight scene comes on, or any cool scene, the music makes everything much more exciting. I like the ending songs.

Character: 6/10.
We were introduced to our characters and yet no development. We have a mystery of layfons past and once we get to know more bout it, its like 'ohhhhs, that's it'? We have felli, who obviously likes layfon, and well we know she tries ti find her path, but then theres no development about it or her charcter, or her powers.. especially with captain in platoon 17. They couldve made her stronger . Basically, everyone should have more development, bout their past and it makes them move on becoming stonger. And btw, I wouldve liked to see more of Dick.

Enjoyment:7/10.
Well surprisingly, I wssnt so bored with this anime. And each episode seemed to kove on the right pace because each episode went on pretty fast. The music also added in the excitement. I kind of forward the romantic parts and to the action scenes instead.

Overall: 7/10

Sorry if my review is choppy, I'm not used to writing them. But here is my review for this anime.

Story: 7/10. I think that this story was really like any other sport animes though this was about boat racing instead. About a guy who quits baseball and is introduce to boat racing by his baseball coach. He then starts to get into it and makes a statement saying he will be the number 1 in japan on it. Then there is the regular anime guy meets friends and improve in the sport they do and become better at it. In the beginning, it was really ... hard to follow up as sometimes they go back into the past and there are some choppy parts but then it doesnt take away the overall story behind it.

Art: 7/10.
The art was okay, wasn't too flashy nor plain for an older anime. I really like how the boats, scenary, and racing was drawn out. Really interesting. One problem was in the beginning, I literally LOL because I couldn't tell who was the main character just because all of the hair looked the same. But then it gets better later.

Sound:9/10.
One of the best thing in this anime. The opening and ending is constantly still being played in my head over some time now. It also gets you hooked. The music comes in during the right time, especially when the main character does something cool.

Character:7/10
Then main character does not really have a 'badass' character but quite likable. He's hardworking and always try his best. Also, is quite baka and cheerful type of guy. Then there is Dokuchi the rival guy. I feel that the rival between the two guys didn't show up much until later on the episode but then we were given a piece of his story, he didn't get any character development nor any significance of his part though. Then there were probably 2 girls who liked Hatano. There is also his faithful girlfriend, Sumi who always wish the best for him, cheers him on and stuff. I felt that the character Sumi should have more guts, would've been serve a purpose in the anime. Most of the characters that shined the most in the anime are the older/veteran racers.

Enjoyment:8/10 I really enjoyed this anime quite actually. Beginning was quite slow for me but then the pace picks up after a while, it just becomes interesting. & you'll start to see more of the racing.


Overall: 7/10.
This anime is really realistic. As the main character doesn't win all the time in his races but tries hard for his goal. This is an anime that should not be overlooked though.

This sport manga about basketball is truly a classic. I watched the anime the first time back in 2010. Then I decided to read the manga in all one go. Here, I'm writing this review after 3 years. I have read this manga 4-5 times already. As I said, it's a classic. It never gets old! And once you start, you cannot stop on reading. The manga is better than the anime, as the pacing for the anime is quite slow, but it is also good watch.

Story: 8/10.
Of course, this story is about a man name Sakuragi Hanamichi who is a delinquent and ... plays basketball all because of one girl. She, obviously likes his supposedly rival. As the story goes on, his love for basketball grows more and more. Turning his attention more than just a game to get Haruko to like him. The story seems like it's been done before right? This was one of the earliest basketball mangas so I can't say it's cliche, but this manga has charm to it. Though it contains aspect of expected scenes, little scenes and parts to it make it up.


Art: 9/10 .
So, the art for this manga is good. I love how when they get serious, the art gets real nice. It shows lot of the emotions being carry out by the players. Also, especially to the chibi drawings. It really brings out the comedy effect when it needs to show that.

Character: 9/10.
I love Sakuragi's character growth in here. From being a childish newbie player to a more refined player who appreciates and enjoy basketball. How his character is from scratch to someone important or find some kind of value in life. I just love this kind of growth in characters. But also, tensai sakuragi's funny comments and his personality. The characters in here really stand out and has realistic feeling to them.

Enjoyment: 8/10.
As much as I like this manga, some parts were quite long. But then each time something amazing happens, it never fails to. It really keeps you going and next thing, you're done with the manga. XD

Overall, 9/10. No need to say more, what's been said above told it all.

OMG. I just.. feel disappointed. It was good in the beginnning. The ending just... was not right. Everything was rushed and especially about the one who she ended up with!!

The story was okay, I like the idea about lingerie and all of that. But then the flow of the later parts of the story was not as good. 6/10

The art was good! Ohhh, the guys looked good and eyecandy. The lingerie was also pretty. 9/10.

Characters were okay. The main girl had a likable character. She was very strong with that too. But then Choi didn't have any attitude. He could have been more involved. ... Truth to be told, he was kind of boring. Then comes jinmu who had a more of happy character. 6/10.

Enjoyment: I enjoyed it. But then it was kind of dragging with their rival store. There were some parts where it was interesting . 7/10.


Overall: 6/10. I feel that the author could have done soo much more with this manhwa.. especially the ending.
