Hoankan Evans no Uso is one of those comedy manga that mostly has one joke, which is the two protagonists are romantically attracted to each other but over the top clueless about what to do about this, and constantly misunderstanding each other in ridiculous ways. This one joke though, the writer manages to consistently be creative and funny with, so it never gets old. If you find the joke funny, you'll love this manga. If you don't, then don't bother to read it.

I gave the art a seven because while the scenery and characters are clean and consistent with appealing and varied character designs, it boggles my mind how an artist this generally decent who sets his manga in the Old West can be so uniquely and abysmally bad at drawing horses. It seems like in every panel where horses appear their legs bend in new, horrifying ways, and it's painfully obvious the artist hardly bothers to even use a reference despite their obvious lack of ability at drawing them. The one time they did, you could tell the picture only contained the horse's head and neck, because the rest was still a horrifying jumble of limbs.

One other oddity was that Sheriff Evan's house is shown to have a secret basement even though the exterior of the house is shown to be on stilts(?) While normally such an obvious inconsistency would irk me, I suppose the author chose to overlook it because it's a comedy manga.

In the end, because it's a manga that's not at all taking itself seriously, and does the one thing it's trying to do really well, so any such criticisms don't really detract from the whole.
