Under Duress

starstar_borderstar_borderstar_borderstar_border
This is a difficult manga to review based on the free first chapter because I think whether or not it turns out to be good is largely dependent on what comes next. The MC is a man who finds himself trapped in a room with a woman who he is encouraged to sexually violate by a shadowy group of men who seem to have leverage over him.

In the first chapter which I'm reviewing from that rape doesn't occur on the page, but it is heavily implied. The fact that the viewer doesn't see it would seem to imply that this isn't an h-manga, but rather a story which is looking to explore some really dark themes. The problem then is that without seeing the way those themes are resolved it's difficult to know whether the first chapter was worth reading.

With a measured mature handling the setup to this story has the potential to say important things and leave the reader with difficult but interesting ideas to chew on. Without that careful treatment, however, the premise is likely to result in a

Seems like a nice fantasy heart warming story that will develop later in the chapters. Pictures are nicely done and story has potential.

Goodbye Pumpkin

Story was short, easy to follow, and straight to the point. Pictures are cutesy. I was surprised how the story turned out. I wonder if there is a continuation of the story or that's it. It looks like it could develop a bit more.

The manga has a very simple art style and its very different to most manga art. It has a very cute theme to go along with it.

The Little School Nurse That Could

starstarstarstar_borderstar_border
It has the hentai tag, but aside from a single page in the second chapter fully censored, it has more of a vanilla vibe as every sexual part is totally removed, making the story seem extremely censored like someone removed a lot of pages of it. The story is pretty much the usual: Female Main Character is a virgin and two males start teasing her to ger into her pants in a way or another. I assume we already know which one will win in the end. Wonder how many chapters more it will have

Ampersand

starstarstarstarstar_border
This manga was a short, cute, somewhat predictable but nonetheless enjoyable read.

It's sort of weird to say that I like it, but I do. The thing is that its twist is telegraphed pretty obviously, and not all that original to start with. And looking back at it it's lacking in action and doesn't leave the reader a lot to chew on when it's done. That's kind of a shame on the second note because the ideas that it plays with can absolutely be used to affect thought provoking ideas.

All that having been said, where it shines is in its cute art style, which is simple and clean but communicates what it needs to and is... well... for lack of a good synonym, cute.

I also think that it employs brevity masterfully. That might sound like a backhanded compliment, but it's not meant that way. It's a pretty simple story and it doesn't let itself get bogged down in lengthy dialogue which might cause the reader to get bored.

It's not a masterpiece, but if you're looking to kill a couple

Lost Youth

starstarstarstarstar
It starts like you should just be like usual: cheer the main protagonist. But then it takes a weird turn to let you understand why something happened and how you should cheer on everyone because everyone got hurt and hurt someone in return. It's twisted in a way that makes it real as human interactions aren't always the best as nobody is born with the right answers right away. It's hard to understand how it will end but it still makes you want to know what's going next and what else they'll explain. For anyone into love and real-life vibes

Sinner

starstarstarstarstar
I always wondered if someone that commits a crime had already in their DNA their sinner gene and thus born as a sinner or not, since a lot of criminals were born in abusive families that made them like that or it was just their DNA that would make them criminals in the future regardless of family? As we know there are people that can stay good even after growing up in an abusive family. This manga actually shows it all! It describes it in the best way and it really makes you wonder how it should really go in our real life. The drawings are cool and the reason being the female main protagonist doesn't see herself as female does hit in the perfect spot. Want to see more of this, can't wait for more chapters

I will likely keep reading this, but I don't really enjoy sexual scenes in manga. Everything in this manga could be solved by some better communication... That being said, the artwork is gorgeous.

The characters need more development and the chapters need more build up, I feel they end too fast (I guess that's good)

Lost Youth

Its got good twists and has potential to develop quite a bit but there were way to many changes happening for a first chapter ahah but pretty decent id say, if you like the dark side of love or maybe just want to see if they whole childhood friend romance works out you should definitely read this.

The Little School Nurse That Could

starstarstar_borderstar_borderstar_border
The title gives you quite a bit of information on what type of manga this is.

If you are into very fast paced manga and love the kind of predictable romance plot then this is pretty much going to be fine for you are its a generic trashy romance plot. Not that trashy is bad its just very few people would find this sort of plot and characters appealing. The cover also implies to you that the manga will be very sexualised and very very echhi.

It's very much a guilty pleasure manga for some people.

However, the characters don't exactly have much development and are quite basic. Its just a very generic trashy romance manga with predictable plots thats too fast paced with lots of echhi and could be seen as a reverse harem. If you like echhi and predicable plots read this maybe you might like it, otherwise I would stay away from this.

Cute and pretty funny. I would've preferred if there had been more than just the three stories in this one shot (potentially allowing for followups) but what's here is still pretty good.
I'd say read it, not like you have anything to lose on the short time you'd spend on it, right?

I Don't Even Have Time to Live

starstarstar_borderstar_borderstar_border
Writing as of chapter 9's release.. Although "chapter" isn't really the right word. Instalment is the better word, as they don't really build on each other narratively.

I Don't Even Have Time to Live is not worth your time unless you have more on your hands than you care to admit. The black humour based on depression is very hit or miss; either a relatable scenario pulled a couple chuckles out of me or it failed to have punch line at all. The haphazard structure (I.E. lack of time dates and multiple unrelated vignettes in a single chapter) and lack of pay off to introduced "narrative" beats (I.E. random forgetfulness on the part of the manga's depressive Nakano, flash backs with little current relevance, and inconsistent/muddled writing for Nakano's many hobbies and unique career) in this manga is much like the experience of depression itself. I think it can be safe to say, especially considering the romantic irony and self-referral of the mangaka in chapter 7, that this manga is at

A Riverside Date

starstarstarstar_borderstar_border
This was so weird, not completely in a shocking way, but not completely in a thought provoking way either. The benign setup and placid background art makes you expect a par for the course heart tingling romance one shot. Then, for better or worse, before you have time to yawn things take a 180, except not really. Like all decent sci-fi this one shot creates a cohesive, if not palpable (literal and figurative in this case lol) world. And a self-contained world often always means foreshadowing that's unnoticeable in the moment, but clear in hindsight. All in all interesting, brief, and a little unsettling.
