I went into this with too high expectations, a show with a rating of 8.64? That means if we compare this to anime, it's as likable as Haikyuu, a show that nearly everyone enjoys because it has many cool moments and a relatable story hidden with in.

Currently I've read the 1 volume which isn't that much but still I invested many hours into that. So this is a spoiler free opinion of that. I'll probably update this review when I get further.

The concept is kinda cool but basically because of that there isn't moments of LET'S GO, they are mostly f**** finally they told me something! It didn't feel too rewarding to read for the 4/5 of the 1 volume but the last fifth was good and made me interested to at least try the next one too.

Concept cool, execution largely unenjoyable and wasn't nearly as good as I had thought of the other reviews and the rating.

Many people say that they liked the monologues and metaphors of the characters, which yes aren't bad but I didn't feel like I really cared about them at all.

This is my first review so first of all, I AM IN LOVE WITH YONA (hence why my profile pic is Yona) but it's outstanding from all the changes from her sheltered life princess Yona to fearless, beautiful yona. MINOR SPOILERS WILL BE SHOWN!!!!

Story 10/10
Akatsuki No Yona is about a sheltered princess who doesn't experience much from the outside world but one day, her peaceful life is shattered. In the beginning, it is a bit slow, trying to find the dragons' descendants, but wants it hits the 3rd dragon's arc, it is outstanding! The action-packed arcs that starts to happen after and in this arc, is like literally mind-blowing. Although the romance is a bit (ALOT) slow, there are moments where I fangirl over Hak and Yona(Yak, I think or Hona) my favorite OTP.

Art 9/10
The art in this manga is super pretty. There are some mangas where all the characters look the same but that's not the case in this one. Each character have unique characteristics that doesn't mix the characters up. Also the scenery that is drawn makes you really think, how in the world does the author draw this? Anyways, the art is very pretty in Akatsuki no Yona

Character 10/10
You end up falling in love with the characters in this manga. Especially, as you can tell, I love the character, Yona. Yona, sheltered princess, was more like calm and protected but her fierce mode is sooooooooooo freakin awesome like she's just personality and looks goal af. The guys in this manga are also very handsome, favorites would be Hak and Jae-ha. Each character have different kinds of personalities and looks.

Overall 9.6/10
This manga is definitely one of my favorites ever!!! Hope this was a good review and helped any of you guys, want to read this manga. This review is full of my opinions, nobody else, other people will probably have different opinions about it. Again, I hope this helped you!

Ousama Game is ambitious. It strives to be character-driven. And this clearly becomes challenging as we delve further into the story. With the mysterious entity "Ousama" being the prime antagonist that is responsible for the story to continue on as it is, the manga often tries desperately to keep the story intense by having melodramatic conflicts between characters, sporadic killings and the question "who is the Ousama?" hang perpetually over the heads of the readers. The story handles the first two issues surprisingly well and unfortunately, disappoints with the latter (which is the main complaint of most readers as well).

Ousama Game involves a variation of the King's Game, except this time, the "King" reigns for the rest of the story and the people who're chosen for the challenges are revealed right off the bat. As usual, characters lose their shit and the inevitable philosophical soliloquies of "who can I trust?" and "who are the real monsters" begins to stir as the bodies start dropping. As far as a survival horror goes, its story runs pretty much the way you'd expect. As I mentioned before, there is a mystery as to who the "Ousama" is but it's disappointingly resolved with some pseudoscience. I'll go as far as to say that the resolution is its weakest link.

What Ousama Game surprised me with was its set of characters. They're students who behave like students, which is what mainly makes the manga so exciting to read. Their actions are reasonable given the context and even so, the manga still manages to be completely unpredictable at times because that's really what humans are like in the face of their impending deaths. They're irrational, fearful and desperate. Unpredictable. Even the MC himself is not an exception, which is something I'm quite happy with. As a result, their emotions feel real. They feel real. This is something that I think is integral in making a survival horror work and Ousama Game succeeds beautifully in that regard.

The art is crisp and clean. Being someone who's been drawing for over 7 years now, I'd say it's as good as your average shounen manga, which is - pretty good. The artist is able to depict grotesque scenes well without making it look too awkward, which is more than what I can say for most survival horrors.

Ousama Game is a refreshing read that falls short of what it wants to be. It's not clever and not all that enlightening. However, the people and the story itself is gritty and unforgiving.

I never thought that I'd read a story about insurance and enjoy it, yet here I am.

The fantasy world template has been used over and over again to breathe life and excitement into situations or ideas that otherwise would not be exciting to read. Somehow Nishi Yoshiyuki has been able to take the most boring thing on earth possible; insurance, and turn that into am exciting and comedic adventure story.

The premise is novel, and the jokes are good. The story flows well, so what more can I ask for. It makes for an interesting read.

I'm looking forwards to more tales of my sofar favorite insurance salespeople, and I hope that you will also give Lycanthrope Bouken Hoken a read.

Ok so I came across this by chance from recommendations from other mangas and I thought why not lets see how the other guy helps her get her crush.... -.- ok totally unrealistic thats for sure. Like someone mentioned if you want romance do not read this. The main girl Sakiko hella annoying...................... ok SPOILER ALERT!!

she becomes her crushes "Mistress" and for someone whose mom was a Mistress all her life she tends to be very ignorant as what it means to be one. she cries all the time and throws a tantrum to get her way. Sleeping with both brothers saying she likes both, but immediately and constantly ignores the youngest, SERIOUSLY just strings him along pretty much.

Art is ok personally i am not fond of the "comical" way of drawing the characters such as exaggerated expressions and Sakiko when she pouts BIG ass lips.

Over it was just blah. its not like I completely hate it but not exactly jumping out of my seat to recommend it either. It does have its good points too rare but there.

I am not a fan of tsundere/sadistic guys in manga and stupid "naive cute" female characters(the only exception is Furuba), but this manga is kind of fun. It feels like a parody on shoujo.

STORY: When you think the plot is predictable, you get a fun twist that makes you want to read further, because it is mind-boggling how author came up with that being acceptable. Basically it is what teacher-student relationship must look like in the dreams of a young girl. And as a fan of this forbidden fruit, I dig that.

I adore main character's friend, black haired girl, someone who seems to have logic and maturity(so far at least).

And the chapter about loli was super fun, the "couple" that formed there was cute and funny. This manga is truly amusing, despite initial feeling you get, give it a chance.

ART:characters do not look like one another, thanks god. The teacher is fine, but his butt is square like he is an old man oe a badly drawn guy from yaoi. Please PM me if you know manga where guy has a nice toned body and bubbly butt, I need this in my life.

CHARACTERS: they have flaws like regular people and most of them are dumb, like regular people. The (almost) witty comebacks are fun, even though the situations are hardly believable. though, I just hadn't have school drama in my life, I bet it actually looks like that.

ENJOYMENT: if I didn't enjoy it, I wouldn't read 4 chapters in a row.

OVERALL: if you want ridiculously illogical teacher-student romance with some humor and facepalm, that could be written by a 14 y o delusioned girl, this is just what you need.

The first thing you need to know is that Zombie Hunter was never finished. And it probably will never be. Regardless of this fact I think it's worth the read.
The story really isn't special. It starts off really good, but then it turns out to be quite as expected.

So, why do I think you should read Zombie Hunter, an unfinished manhwa?

The art is outstanding. I'm not an expert, and all I can say is that I really enjoyed Zombie Hunter on the visual level. The fight scenes - awesome. Sorry about my limited vocabulary use.
Toshio, the main character is really great. He kicks ass, has a strong survival instinct, as well as a killer instinct. As a character he seems promising from chapter 01 to chapter 17, when 'the story' takes over the zombie hunter.
The pages you read from chapter 17 to the last chapter show why the author dropped Zombie Hunter. It becomes diluted, has no depth, and you can witness a lack of inspiration.
To sum it up, if you like fight scenes, blood, monsters and if you like them drawn well, do read Zombie Hunter. If you can enjoy a potentially amazing character do read Zombie Hunter. It's short. Read it.

It's nearly a direct continuation of Imawa no Kuni no Alice.

Overall - if you decide to read this, you should read the former first to better understand what is happening.(the original 'prequel' is MUCH better as well, so trust me, if you won't like the former, don't even touch this one) Unlike the former, which went roundabout on most of the concepts - this one literally throws all the answers you might want at you.

It would be spoiling to tell how this relates to the first manga, but I will just tell that there will be some minor cameos and the overall concept of the 'borderlands' is quite similar.

But enough about the first story, let's get on with this one - if you are entering this in hopes of getting the same quality as previous series - abandon this hope.

This manga offers a pretty weak(but colorful and distinguishable) cast of characters, following a semi dull story.
The characters make 180 in their personality way too often.. the plot revolves around asspulls where characters do physically impossible things.
It was a minor issue in the original series, where it could pretty much be ignored, but in this one it's heavily magnified...

The only reason you might want to read this manga is if you need to be spoonfed the explanation of the concept behind the original series. This manga literally leaves no questions hanging. If anyone asked me for a manga series, where I literally did not have a single question left by the time I finished reading it - that would be one of the best examples.
And that's a negative point for me, but I can see that being helpful for some people who just want an 'absolute conclusion', which is what is offered here.

An overall weak 7/10. Art was pretty good, it had more or less good enjoyment value if you enjoyed the former series... despite weak character cast - they were still pretty memorable. Story was nothing much, but I have seen worse, so can't give it less than fair as well.

It's truly mind-boggling.

Idol Pretender goes from 0 to 60 in 3.5 pages. It's short, it's fast, the love is furious, and there are more overlapping love triangles that go nowhere than you can shake a stick at.

Okay, so, the decision to leave his life behind in order to live as a woman trying to become an idol for "easy" money is one thing...but when you add a new character and each new character is a new love rival but you're not going to flesh out the love that well...it's frustrating.

I'm not too happy with the ending and I was disappointed to see the characters only caring about their love lives than being themselves. I wish there was more conflict with the main character and understanding what he is after his gender transition, but it always boils down to "Gah?! I'm supposed to be a guy!?!" Which gets old even after a short series such as this.

There are genuinely good moments and interesting character turns that I wish were plotted out better. Part of the reason I didn't like the ending is that I didn't feel like the author put in the work to make the romance feel natural.

It's weird. By all accounts, this is a very average gender bender story, and yet it's missing just enough parts and sense that it makes it frustrating and disappointing, but not bad.

Sigh.

It was a roller coaster of "?!?"

For a three chapter manhwa, I was impressed with the quality of the art and the unique story it tries to tell. The protagonist, a man who has to buy words from others in order to write his poems, meets a mysterious woman with a certain tattoo, and we proceed to find out their tragic histories. Since it's so short, the character's personalities are not that defined, but they were sympathetic enough to want to keep reading.

While I do admire how simply and quickly the story was portrayed, I feel that for this reason, it lacked a lot more substance than it had the potential for. For example, I thought the man's need to buy words was not used to it's full effect. We never really see the impact it has on people who agree to it (once someone sells him words, they are not allowed to use them again - however, we never see the aftermath of anyone's agreements. This could've added an interesting perspective to the whole thing and perhaps even made the protagonist question the morality of doing this). It's just kind of glossed over, which I supposed couldn't be helped what with the length, but I just thought could've made it more interesting.

[SPOILER SECTION] Also, one thing that didn't really make sense to me was why the woman would want to sell the words in the letter when she hadn't even read it. I know she was emotional over the whole matter, but he used some REALLY common words in there. If that guy had agreed to it, she would have been majorly screwed over. A bit of an illogical move on her part, but it wasn't enough to really annoy me.

Besides that, I thought this was a fine read. This story didn't fire up any strong emotions in me, but I certainly don't regret taking the time to read it. For what it is, I think it's worth a glance.
