The Guy She Was Interested In Wasn’t a Guy at All Vol. 1 is a great start with great art

Posted on by

Fashionable and upbeat high schooler Aya loves listening to rock, but no one else seems to share her interest…until she meets a cool, stylish employee at a CD shop. Dressed in black from head to toe, he has this air of mystery about him, and his taste in music is impeccable. Aya falls hard for him―not knowing her crush is actually her female classmate Mitsuki! For her part, Mitsuki generally keeps to herself and avoids standing out at school. But given that she sits right next to Aya, Mitsuki’s all too aware of the other girl’s feelings, and she’s afraid to reveal the truth. So why does she find herself talking with Aya more and more…?

The Guy She Was Interested In Wasn’t a Guy at All Vol. 2 is choppy in the story but has awesome art

Posted on by

Aya’s found out that the guy she was interested in isn’t a guy at all—and she’s also realized that she just can’t keep her cool around Mitsuki! The two haven’t quite put a name on their complex, earnest feelings, but they only grow as the pair continues to bond over the music they love. With their senior year at hand, future plans are coming into question…and Aya’s thrown for a loop when a mysterious woman shows up and wants Mitsuki to go overseas!

The Deer King: Yuna and the Promised Journey Vol. 1 is well done, but boring

Posted on by

After a pack of infected dogs attacks a group of miners, soldier-turned-slave Van awakens to find himself blessed with preternatural strength. As he effortlessly breaks free of his chains, he notices a young girl-the only other survivor-standing before him. The two escape the mine, but with Van’s captors in pursuit and a deadly disease ravaging the area, how will they survive on the lam?

The Essence of Being a Muse Vol. 1 is an interesting slice of life manga that has potential

Posted on by

Twenty-three-year-old art school reject Miyuu Seno has a blue print for the future, but it’s not her own. Instead, she’s stuck on the “secure”path her mom has laid out for her―from her office job, to her clothes, to the guys she meets―and it’s making Miyuu more miserable by the day. When things come to a head between them, Miyuu leaves home with a blank canvas in tow, holding on to the hope that painting can somehow undo the phony she’s become…
