So I know what you're thinking... A 10? Really?
Yes, really and with good reason.
Today if you ask a lot of manga readers what makes all these romance or slice of life manga that take a typical school or 'normal' life setting so infinitely great an answer tends to be "It's not boring like real-life." or "It's so exciting/thrilling compared to how it would happen in reality." Anyone who thinks this way now I'd like you to take a seat and read this manga. Chikan Otoko(Molester Man) is a 21 chapter manga with comedy, romance, drama and so-on. What makes this manga particularly different from others? It is actually a real-life story that was posted on 2chan that follows the events of a college student and the ordeals he goes through going from essentially an awkward anti-social shut-in to a really dynamic evolving character that you can't help but love in the end.
Story 10/10:
Let the criticism come forth, but this is the score I stand upon. The story follows a MC named Molester Man who has a part time job and goes to school, but besides that is really just a shut-in that stays on his computer all day long, plays games, watches anime and reads manga. One day on his way home from class he somehow ends up being mistaken as a stalker and is arrested by authorities. Thus begins the story of Molester Man and the ordeals he goes through while trying to find love in the end. The story is something that cannot really be mocked. Most manga tend to be fiction so it's easy to critic the faults in a story that is really just thought up; however, Molester Man stands in its own league that cannot be easily changed as it isn't fiction at all, but something that took place in the real world. The story itself is already great as it is, but just knowing that is is based on a real story just adds that much more to it.
Art 7/10:
The art isn't all that impressive, but it does have its plus sides with the added over the top silly facial expressions for comedic scenes. Overall it's not fantastic, but it's not bad. It gets the emotion across on the characters very well which is good enough.
Character 10/10:
The characters are what really make this manga what it is. Every character we meet have an important role in the story. Especially the MC who literally goes from the most nerdiest, anti-social shut-in to a guy that just becomes a completely different person(Avoiding spoilers.) They all develop very well and not one character is just some shallow supporting character that has no influence whatsoever in the story. We see the interactions between the characters and the MC as well as the interactions between one another that just really make each character shine. Characters crying for joy, loneliness, feeling betrayed, anger, confusion and so-on you'll literally see every character go through so much and so much more. All the characters have very vibrant and fantastic personalities and it's just really hard not to like any of the characters you'll meet throughout the manga.
Enjoyment 10/10:
From cheering, laughing and almost shedding a tear, this manga made me feel it all. The pacing is almost perfect and it doesn't drag on forever(Being only 21 chapter) having the perfect length for the story keeping me interesting from the moment I picked this up to the very last chapter. I couldn't have asked for a better way to end the year by reading such a fantastic manga.
Overall 10/10:
Yup, a 10/10. The story and characters all feeling so real(because they are) I just couldn't help but enjoy every last bit of this manga. Every chapter kept me excited to see what happens next and it made me really feel for all of the characters. I could have never imagined a story that came out of 2chan could be so great. This is a definite read, so I suggest you hop on it right away!

Ok so I've never written a review before, but I thought this manga deserved one sooo here I go:
Story (9.5 round it up idk) - The story is freakin hilarious ok. The manga has this slice-of-life feel, but it does have some sort of plot where Molester fumbles through his relationships with this group of girls after he gets mistaken for a molester by one of them (Miss Understanding). It's very realistic and down to earth, like I can really relate to Molester and all his awkward, otaku, nerdyness. At the same time though the story still keeps this manga like feeling that is really enjoyable. The only drawbacks I would say are: the whole 2ch lingo that I don't really understand, and I think the translators should have explained more (or maybe they did and I'm dumb), and maybe the pacing, sometimes it feels a little weird to me like in some places, like it should be faster in some or slower in others (that might just be me being overly anal though).
Art (9) - Some might say it's a drawback, but I quite like the art, it's sketchy, comical and it's clear to understand so I don't see any problem. It's also done by the same person who did Onani Master Kurosawa (check that out too).
Characters (9) - All the characters do have development. You get to see new sides of Molester as you get to know more about him and the girls as he slowly makes friends with them. Although sometimes I find the way the characters act annoying, and usually its the girls, but it's not "shoujo" annoying it's "they're based off of real people and I find that person's personality annoying".
Enjoyment (10) - I 100% enjoy this I always look forward to whenever the new chapters come out, I 100% recommend you read this.
Overall (10) - I give this a 10 because I really do laugh and find this a fun read, and end up really relating to Molester, it feels like he's a friend, as sad as that sounds. So go out and read about Molester and all the shenanigans he gets into with all his new friends in Chikan Otoko. read more

By the same author, in both manga, the plot is almost entire character driven and the intricate relations and interactions with the characters. The art drawn not "bad" in a sense but that it has almost no attention to detail, and the backgrounds are very plain. Chikan is very reliant on dialogue and conversations, whereas Onani is slighter better art and in my opinion easier on the eyes to read. In the end, I liked chikan otoko better, the ending is sweet, not something I can say for Onani master kurosawa.
Onani Master Kurosawa and Molester Man reminded me of each other. Not only because they are from the same author and have the same art style. The main characters are a bit alike. Even though they are definitely not the most popular individual, they both don't want to stay like they are now and try to change. Though OMK has a different reason than Molester Man they both give you similar feelings. If you like the other I would say you will definitely like the other. So just give a shot. You will not be disappointed.
Same artist, and the stories are similar, both funny and unpredictable, you wont want to stop reading!
Loser guy turns things around with the help of girls and falls in love. Similar feel. Both funny but personally I found Chikan Otoko funnier! Both guys like to use self pleasure ;)
Just to make it short both have same author made art and if u like either of these manga u will like the also other one :) Since these manga are just so similar
Both from the same Author, characters are very similar to each other. While Onani Master Kurosawa is more serious and Chikan Otoko is more on the comedy side. There are a lot of twists and surprises and emotional rollercoster moments throught out the chapters. If you like Chikan Otoko then you will love Onani Master Kurosawa.
Both are amazing drama/romance doujins that focus on an awkward anti-social guy who (after meeting a girl) is trying to improve his life while coming to terms with mistakes and personal failures. They also share perverted humor, but Chikan Otoko leans more towards romantic comedy while Onani Master Kurosawa goes more into dark psychological elements.
Gripping, twisting, emotional plots is the name of the game here.
These two manga will hit you right in the feels
Both have the same artist, but this artist helped write both stories a little. The artwork is the same in both manga, even though if the artwork wasn't that great. However, the AMAZING plot makes up for both of these manga. The main characters both change dramatically at one point in the story. They both have very unexpected events and endings that you would never guess reading the first chapters of each manga. I read both of these manga spending one day each, and both of these manga are impossible to stop reading when you reach about to chapter 9. You WILL LOVE Chikan Otoko if you liked Onani Masturbation Kurosawa. Both of these manga are just so great. Chikan Otoko is hands down my favorite manga, of course, with Onani Master Kurosawa placing second. You will not be disappointed if you read either of these manga if you like twists. If you're not persuaded to read any of these two manga, look at the reviews. They both have great reviews. Please read both of these manga if you have not read any of these two.

Both of these stories are about guys who are otakos and are unaccustomed to relating to girls since they are shy. Both are based on true life stories and in both the guy seeks advice on what to say to a girl. Also the way the reader sees it is really similar like you are looking at the guys screen or seeing what he is going through. They are both seinens about shy otoko guys falling in love. If you've never read Densha Otoko - do it! It's a good romance and you won't be sorry. Also both stories are quite humorous and light hearted. Molester Man (Chikan Otoko) is by the writer of Onani Master Kurosawa so it's a bit quirkier and more mature than Densha and Densha is a classic older manga.
