Kyou no Kira-kun - Chapter 1
- Drawn in by art, never heard of author previously... terribly written summary on manga aggregate sites.
- Art - Looove Nino's hair. Kira's a bit awkward. Amazing emotion conveyed near end.
- Conflict
- To MC: "I hate you"
- "I want to change"
- Exploitative "gonna die soon?", more emotion?
- Characterization
- Kira shallow?
- Crazy mom and dad
- Enjoyment - Great... enjoyed art more, but end ramps up. Sensei a nice twist.
Kujaku no Kyoushitsu - Chapter 1-2
- BG - Fan of Mitsuba
- Conflict -
- To MC: "I hate you"
- "I hate x, but I will associate with x!" - Back to normal shoujo?
- Characterization - Still early, but shallow at best
- Bad boy with a nice smile!
- Second one that don't really care
- Sincere girl
- Main character - ??
- Art - fan of unique clothes, expressions always a little bit off, lot more streamlined, but loses beautiful details.
- Enjoyment - Loooow, a bit of disappointment. Lack of content already making you (or me) ask how romantic conflicts sort themselves out. Feel like chapter 2 is a one-shot to help sort out personalities but comes across a bit superficial.
Nounai Poison Berry - Chapter 1-2
- BG - Fan of Mizushiro
- Conflict
- LET'S FINE LOVE, EVEN THOUGH I'M AN OLD LADY.
- Artfully weaves anxious air, goes through inner dialogue amazingly well
- Characterization
- Difficult to remember who is who. Stereotypical character designs to help?
- Council interactions are HILARIOUS
- Art
- Enjoyment - Great. Enjoyed more than anticipated. Inner monologue/dialogue? done extremely well. Relate-able, who hasn't has these thoughts? Tension from chapter 1 dies down a lot.
