Comic & Manga Reviews
Re:Anima Vol. 1 is an interesting start to a new series. It has unique hazards, a decimated planet, and determined characters. While it isn’t my favorite story out there, I’ll be the first to say that it has a lot of potential.
Sheltering Eaves Vol. 1 is a sweet and endearing story about two childhood friends figuring out where they stand with one another. It’s a classic slow-burn friends-to-lovers romance with a few unique twists.
Oh wow! Love, That's an Understatement Vol. 1 is such a shockingly sweet story, but not for the reasons you might expect. The story is all about two characters trying to take care of one another and make things right. It's cute, quirky, and sweet.
I wanted to love Kaina of the Great Snow Sea Vol. 1. The title and cover made it look like this story would be my ally. While I agree it has a lot of potential, it failed to suck me in before I finished the first volume.
Oh, I really like the premise of King in Limbo Omnibus 1. Sleeping sickness, dream divers, desperate characters, it’s got a bit of everything. This series is absolutely worth reading if you ask me.
Hooray, it's time for another manga with a long title! But seriously, Kusunoki's Flunking Her High School Glow-Up Vol. 1 is not what I expected. First, there's the obvious - I thought that Kusunoki would have been the main POV (the title and cover indicate that), but it's actually Keisuke Shizuki.
As an anthology, Dawn of X Vol. 1 collects six issues, ranging across different series. Naturally, this means that while there’s (probably) something for everyone, not all of it is going to hit. I can already tell there will be subplots I love, and some subplots I’ll be happy to get through.
I See Your Face, Turned Away Vol. 1 is a funny and sweet story worth checking out. It’s also not the most memorable story out there, so dive in, enjoy it, and move on.
Here marks the end of the (well, this) Darth Vader series. It was a good run, and overall, I really enjoyed it. This series could be read as a standalone or alongside the main Star Wars plot. The whole series, from start to finish, occurs between A New Hope and Empire Strikes Back, and until now, I hadn’t really thought about what occurred in that time span.
If you’re looking for a quirky murder/mystery manga with forced proximity, Kei X Yaku: Bound By Law Vol. 1 is the read for you! But seriously, this manga surprised me again and again, and I have to read the rest of the series.
