AMAZING, BRILLIANT, Outstanding!
It might sound exaggerated but it's the truth.
Story, Character, Art, Enjoyment, I would give all of them 10 Without even thinking once.

I can't recommend anyone, anything BETTER THAN THIS STORY.
Historical, (which makes all the characters graceful)
Action, (it makes characters so cool)
Romance, (who doesn't like romance?)
Comedy, (who doesn't wanna laugh?)
Fantasy. (it's a genre that not everyone likes, still in this story, it surprisingly makes sense)
These genres couldn't fit better on any other story than this one.
I'd recommend to those, who wanna laugh, who wanna see a true form of love, who wanna see graceful characters, who wanna know what bonding and affection is.
It's a complete package.
I started reading this manga after watching its anime because anime didn't have any proper ending, (& It bothered me 😂) I was so eager to know how HAK and Yona will end up, I started reading manga from Chapter 41. In 3 days I completed 190 chapters, it's so engaging and beautiful story!

My MOST FAVOURITE of all stories, AKATSUKI NO YONA.

HAK, Yona, the four dragons. I love all of them, because they've amazing personalities.. (I don't wanna introduce who they are, just know them through anime and then continue the story in manga. That's what I'll recommend)

I wanted to personally text this writer to tell her, how brilliant of a writer she is.

Not only is the characters' development amazing, the story and its events are just Too heroic, too emotional to handle.

There are so many scenes where I laughed, when dragons make jokes and enjoy with each other. There are so many scenes where HAK makes us skip a heartbeat by his unconditional love for Yona.

It's a MUST MUST MUST watch and read. Both

Simply the best thing ever written hands down. Only one complain. It is hard to read and understand at first but you will get use to it half way through. A masterpiece written by a genius. Download it right now and just go READ IT. I have nothing else to say.

Story: 10/10
You will find the best plot twists ever. Its impossible to guess right. You are never correct. In just one sentence everything will twist.

Art: 9/10
Well its a light novel so it only has a few pictures.

Characters: 9/10
The characters are amazing and so smart. I love Otonashi. I don't know how she is still sane. I love the character development. The main characters becomes so bad ass toward the end.

Enjoyment: 10/10
I really enjoyed it. Try to read it. It may be hard at first but trust me you won't regret it. You will really enjoy it.

Overall: 10/10

( review to be update in chapter 8 )
Bozebeats, Here is the Quick review: take Mowgli from jungle book and add some machine gun holding monks that wipe out demons. Pretty metal premise and witch I'm totally in but their are things that take me out of it. MC is kinda weak, overall it doesn't feel new, art work is great, the monk guy from CH1 is cool, the action is "ok" creative.

(6)Story: Like i said, Mowgli from jungle book ( yeah that what ill call the main character atm, his name is Tamaki actually, cool name in my opinion ) raised by wolfs , was found by a demon slaying monk, told his name, found a demon, demon kills mama wolf ( spoilers but then again its the first chapter) monk kills demon, Mowgli has some unknown power, monk casts a spell, mowgli becomes a monk. Its fine story but structure its little week. For example, in the panel where the mama wolf dies its not clearly and when i went to the next page im like "oh? she dead? kk" and thats where the stories falls. The panel work of this manga doesn't compliment the story at all, when the mama wolf dies it should be a big moment but it doesn't feel like it. When we first see the protagonist his in the water remembering a random girl and fade out and the we cut to the mama wow take him as his child. That could been removed and be replaced, oh i don't know, a whole page with the mama wolf dead. Shock the reader a little, you have a great art work man, you can do it.

(9)Art: This may be one the main factors of the existence of the series "kid draws great you are in!" and indeed his drawing a really good, especially the colouring, its in a pro level and its really promising. For example the monster design if you break it down it nothing special but the artwork compliments it a lot and suddenly looks great. The action is also getting better and more creative, for example there is a fight on a plane which is pretty rare in a manga. But as i said in the story part, there are some odd panel choices. It may be neap-peaking but still great art work.

(6)Characters: The MC has a mysterious past and he knows nothing and thats pretty much it. As the story goes he wants to be a member of those monks (BOZE) to take revenge i guess but there is no more layer to it atm . As i said before his more like a Mowgli character and that okay, not the first time there is a spin in well know characters. I really liked the fact that he couldn't read and he always had his name tag and the the monk tell him his name, great idea. No more build up for now and reader are not that petitioned. The monk form the fist chapter is actually more interesting. He may be the very first vegetarian male character in a shounen manga ever. Thats unique, im in to it. Then you have the main character sempai who has a GANTZ like weapon and thats the only characteristic i can point out, But in the end there is nothing that really got me connect or really interested in it.

Did I enjoyed it? well it is pretty to look, the action is kinda fun, but over all it doesn't feel new or something that jump reader will get in to. For a rookie its good start but i feel like it could be better. We will see how its goes but for know it feels like its going to have only 3 volumes.

Today is 8:10pm from where I am, and I just "ended" Dead Tube with Chapter 56, even if it was actually only an end an of a era, since as of today, 2 chapters are still serialized so the manga has not yet ended officially.

But now, since it ended a season for me, I want to talk about it as it is.

The manga was so messed up along the way, just because there were characters that you didn't want to die were killed; while those who were pure were hurt the most, and because of that, it makes you empathize with the main character even if at the start, you kinda didn't feel like it.

Tomohiro is a messed-up person, this is the type of person you expected to be an inteovert just because there are so many mysteries to his past, that the moment you figure it out, you can understand he's the way that he is. This is the same case with Mai.. but only the latter, as Mai is different, in that, she's more sociable and likes to express her thoughts more and likes to "expose" Machiya for lying sometimes, even when he himself doesn't sound like he was.
Mai likes to fun of Machiya, too.

Both were manipulators, but both had a heart.

This manga had a lot of shit characters, but mostly because you expected them to die anyways or they were skeptical because they know Tomohiro at a personal level. Not only that, but some..they were very welcoming at the start for some odd reason that isn't fully explained. I mean, one minute, you're introduced to a character that seems nice or harmless, the next minute, they're orchestrating your downfall and want to cut you up, and take your innards.

This goes the same for Mai and the others, too. Since Mai was a psychopath, and while she did have heart, sometimes she's just there letting stuff happen until something crucial happens, and then suddenly, she becomes a "deus-ex machina" to Tomohiro. Luckily, that doesn't happen in an annoying fashion unlike some shows, as it does show, that she's willing to put her life on the line for her newfound friends. Meanwhile Tomohiro is often useless in battles, yet he indeed makes up for them with his wits and cunning dark side as well as his level of understanding even if in the most deadliest of situstions, even when he's essentially just a sociopath who's turned on by sadism on the outside; which is something Mai likes to tease him for.

Mawi is often a damsel in distress, and Nozomi is just a full-on prostitute and slut who likes Money. These 4 were deep characters, but they were shitty mostly because they were crossing a moral code as well as twisting what is right and what is wrong, as well as what is legal, while Mawi was mostly useless in the entire run.

But... while that's the case, I never expected to still miss it after it ended for me. I actually felt empty and bitter-sweet when it ended the season, which is a common occurence when you end a wholesome anime. This series also a weird sense of redeeming some characters from who they were, which is not entirely impossible, as Tomohiro, for example, specifically, does have a hidden reason for his actions.

This anime, of course, isn't entirely wholesome, as it kills off characters you get to connect to, it's also really messed-up with concept. It even scars characters, psychologically, too. Same with the reader of the mang, if they aren't entirely prepared.

The manga also has a lot of plot holes, which is entirely on the fact that no one gets arrested. It makes you wonder why the police would still even investigate certain tragic events that transpire if none of them would take action anyway? Maybe, Dead Tube really was overseeing something with the Force, but the manga never really explains it, and thus, it makes me take the entire thing less seriously than it wanted me to. It's not that bad, considering this was a world that completely let a "red-room inspired" website, but it did bother me, since it made the police force a leave a sour taste in my mouth with how corrupt they are in retrospect. If anything, they were of a clean-up group than an actual police force.

I think what makes this manga worth a read are the twists. Seriously, there's a reason why a series like Death Note or Monster is intriguing, and that's keeping you subverted despite all the obvious expectations. Because while there are some parts that, while they do end or happen the way you think, it often doesn't and it catches you off guard.

This manga was a struggle to read, but I had a great time with Mai, Machiya, Mawi and Nozomi.

Technically, the manga is still serializing after that "end", but with the way the story wrapped up the way it did despite being a cliffhanger, I didn't want to continue anymore.

Maybe I will check the next season of that manga, who knows? but I think it might not give the same feeling as I did when I first read it, and because of that, I'm happy to let it go. But, I still do wish the duo luck in their next projects as well as this manga's contination. Kitakawa, Touta and Yamaguchi, Mikoto; thank you for this flawed yet satisfying story.

Up until Chapter 56:
Plot: 6/10
Characters: 7/10
Art: 9/10
Gore: 10/10
Sex: 6/10
Censorship: 5/10

That being said, thank you for reading my essay, JUSTICE COMPLETE.

Art style-wise, Akuma no Puzzle is nothing groundbreaking. The characters are drawn well enough to be likable.

But I praise this title for its ambition to come up with plots that break the shoujo mold. There's fantasy, school romances, omiai, demons, etc., so you're bound to find a oneshot you like here.

Characterization-wise, I like how the mangaka developed the characters. The women aren't badasses, but they're not helpless, crybaby wimps either. They're even fairly entertaining, even at the height of their mandatory naivete.

Lastly, I must especially mention the male lead in the fourth oneshot (July Bride's Yuu, who's just the epitome of coolness), who I would welcome reading again in a series.

Ichibanboshi Kirari was a true pleasure. Even though there are so many student x teacher manga out there, most of them drag out for a long time and over-complicate things with too much drama. Life isn't all candy and butterflies, but there are sweet and kind people out there, so I believe that perfect encounters are still possible. And that is the premise of this manga - a perfect encounter between an honest open-minded girl from a small island and a teacher who tries very hard to do his best. Something that started as admiration, transformed into strong one-sided feelings, and ended up being mutual love.

10/10
Ichibanboshi Kirari made me feel excited, warm, and hopeful towards the future. Like a cure for a lonely heart *chuckle*, this manga was perfect in every aspect. Adorable art, just the right pacing and length, noticeable character development (for a story of only eight chapters), overall heartfelt and heartwarming atmosphere. I'm so glad I came across this manga! I look forward to future works by Uri Suguta. I think she has loads of potential.

Some of my reviews express the idea that nothing in our world is a lone island. And I had mentioned in a previous one that Ikeda’s prominent example of her promoting France in Japan was Rose of Versailles, to which another work I mentioned was linked: Glory of Napoleon. Unfortunately, I found translations neither in English nor in French. Instead, I discovered an English translation of “Polish Secret History: Until the Borders of the Sky”, that is in turn linked to Glory of Napoleon. And here I am, reviewing this obscure find.

[1. Starting with the story…]

Set during 18th and 19th century in the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth, the story is in bildungsroman fashion, and meant to commemorate the life of a historical figure, Polish prince Józef Antoni Poniatowski. The American and French Revolutions hold value for the first part of the narrative, and so do power struggles between Russia, Prussia and Austria, that culminate in the division of Poland. Poland had entered a period of decline, its independence being threatened by major powers and the matter being complicated by internal divisions that undermined governance.

In order to safeguard his motherland, Józef is raised as a patriot and educated in military studies and European languages, even serving as an Austrian officer to acquire combat experience. Many of his compatriots devoted likewise their lives, but their visions could be conflicting, an example being his childhood friend Tadeusz Kościuszko.

~~~ Fun fact: Tadeusz Kościuszko became a national hero in Poland, Lithuania, Belarus… and the USA. He is one of two Europeans serving in the American Revolutionary War portrayed by Riyoko Ikeda (alongside Axel von Fersen). ~~~

The second part of the narrative is connected to Napoleon Bonaparte, who promises freedom to the divided and subjugated Poles. After their endeavor to secure an alliance with him, he restores independence by founding the Duchy of Warsaw, in order to secure more allies for his campaign in Russia. From this point, Józef is deeply involved in the Napoleonic Wars as a Marshal of the French Empire. Anything more will head towards spoiler territory.


[2. Continuing with characters…]

[a.] The protagonist is the son of Andrzej Poniatowski and a fictional Russian woman named Natasha Suvorova (sharing a name with the daughter of general Alexander Suvorov). Andrzej managed to convince his relatives that Józef was born from a secret marriage to Teresa von Kinsky, at first not approved because her family was not very rich. However, this occurred before 1761 (when they married), yet real-life Józef was born in 1763, and also had a sister named Maria Teresa. Instead, he is portrayed as illegitimate issue and von Kinsky as a wicked stepmother with a (fictional) biological son named Felix Poniatowski, who made Józef’s childhood miserable and affected his growth as a person and patriot. I disagree with those creative liberties, although Józef is a complex and interesting character, with many phases and development.

[b.] The cast is mostly composed of famous historical figures such as Czarina Catherine II of Russia, alongside less-known ones such as Maria Walewska (known as the Polish mistress of Napoleon) and Henrietta de Vauban. Though not overly complex, all play their given roles decently, be it as sources of conflict, part of the intrigues or as benefactors of Poland.


[3. Concluding with the artwork and personal impression…]

[a.] In comparison to the artwork of Rose of Versailles, PSH’s artwork is improved in a technical level, justified since Ikeda penned and illustrated it almost 20 years after completing the first. It is quite rich in details (be it characters or backgrounds) and its shading is also more advanced, bringing into life a rare and exotic setting.

One of my favorite panels is drawn after the famous painting “Coronation of Napoleon”, by Jacques-Louis David. Also, paneling is structured without always following the same format, thus allowing for interesting contrasts and transitions between scenes.

[b.] Overall, PSH was highly enjoyable because of its rare setting and mature story, though not rare concerning premise of a struggle of an oligarchy for political survival, in the midst of broader geopolitical games. Also, if it were as long as Rose of Versailles, it would be a masterpiece beyond measure.There were insufficient chapters to establish a more complex cast and portray daily lives of separate classes (e.g. developments on serfdom were barely referenced). Nonetheless, it’s successful in expressing this: French, American and Russian history was also Polish history, and likewise Polish history was also French, American and Russian.

Hope you enjoyed my review!

This was the 1st manga I have ever read in my life. After i watched the anime, I was too curious to know what happens at the end ,so i jumped straight to chapter 276 (ending) ,but the introduction of so many characters made me want to go through the whole manga.
It took me around 2 days to complete the 28 volumes released so far.
A mixer with all genres added to their best. How the story progresses gives mixed emotions of both happiness and sadness. A few chapters made want cry a lot, that i wasn't able to stop until I had read the next chapters.
I am very happy that DOMESTIC NA KANOJO was the 1st manga i read.

It's fun, characters are pretty, and the story as a whole is pretty bubbly. This is a really down to earth manga, so don't go expecting a lot from it.

All in all, I really liked it. It's not like I'm waiting every week for the chapter to drop, but It's a nice surprise when I see that a new chapter was released.

Also, the story pace is really "realistic" to say the least. Unexpected things happen here and there, just like is kinda unpredictable. I mean, we, the readers, can predict what's going to happen because we are given the whole story before our eyes, unlike the characters who only see their part. That being said, it's nice that the story goes almost as If the mangaka went through this in his life, with realistic developments, on a realistic setting. Heck, It may even be a novel and It could be really nice as well.

7/10. Nice read.

Yes you like them you pinch them shoujo typical of childhood friends that it is known from the beginning that mutual feelings have it would be good to read it. Nonetheless, it is too typical ... the prominent figures do not develop very much and do not go out of the limit until it is his feelings to confess or to be demonstrated. The short histories are not bad, in the oneshot. In end, it was waiting more for drama and actions unexpected that alone the typical thing.
