All of the elements that usually make manga bad (over the top fan service, unexplained and inconsistent plot, bizzare character choices, off the wall progression of events and so on) somehow work brilliantly here. At moments I was laughing so hard my stomach hurt afterwards. It should not work, but it does. I guess it's necessary to read it with a certain mindset to enjoy it.

A lot of people hated the ending of Prison School, I on the other hand loved it, because I saw the whole series as a troll-job from the start. There is always a certain point that makes you ... question the author. Am I being trolled here? Is the manga bad, and the author thinks it's actually good, or is it bad on purpose? That was what the ending of Prison School felt like, the author trolling the audience. With Raw Hero I got that feeling right from the start. Certain red flags that would make me drop other manga series never made me drop Raw Hero. I felt that I was in good hands. That is what Raw Hero is as well a - troll job, a very well done and executed troll job, with great art, and a healthy pinch of insanity. I don't recommend it for everyone, but it's worth at least checking out. I am looking forward to further works from Hiramoto.
