I started this manga thinking it would be a very generic slop, but I've found taking chances on Mangas can actually lead to finding a new favourite. And honestly that's exactly what happened here.
I initally read it becasue the premise made me curious what the hell it'd be about and it is exactly what it says, and somehow it's really good.
The writing is really good (mostly, I'll get to that) and dialgoue flows naturally in 99% of scenes, which makes seeing the relationship between Prez and Sora grow really fun to read because they're both likeable believable characters. However, the reason I say
...
the wiritng is mostly good is because when a key plot point needs to be brought up in a chapter, whatever it may be I find 99% of the time it feels really awkard. Like if a character mentions their past it feels kinda awkardly brought up, or when a topic of conversation turns to another character or whatever. It's kinda hard to write out what exactly but if you read it you will understand. I don't mind that much because the rest of the manga is really well written, but it seems the author kinda struggles at making conversations flow naturally to bring something up or whatever.
The art is amazing and defintley has alot of effort put into it, like it's REALLY good.
It's just a really funny manga, with a actuall sweet central romance and dialgoue. The MC (Sora) is fun to watch and he's just well written, which he does initally come off as just generic guy who is nice to everyone but he has surpising depth.
Other complaints I have is that side characters like the girl Sora has a crush on (forgot her name woops) is kinda boring, she's not a bad character I just kinda don't like her I suppose. Also a big issues I feel this manga has is trying to have more potential love interests, which I just don't get why they would, It's very clear what the main couple is and the manga doesn't even pretend to hide it. The potential love interest side of characters as well isn't even a focus so it just feels unnescarry honestly. And this isn't really a complaint and more of a personal preference but I kinda hope they stop introducing new characters, mostly because I just really really enjoy the Prez and Soras dynamic, they're written super naturally together and they just shouldn't be written that well.
Also I mentioned a little bit I think, but the girl Sora likes is just I don't get why Sora likes her and that is basicalyl my main issue with the series because his unphasing love for her just feels unnatural in later chapters, sure in early chapter like first volume I can accept it, but during the 2nd Volume + it just kinda feels forced. Seems this is changing maybe in later chapters (sorry for minor spoilers but like they're not really)
Overall this manga seems like it should be complete ass and yet it has really good writing and equally good art. The main couple has amazing chemistry and stuff actually happens, with actual character development and relationship changes etc, which I guess shouldn't be a shock but after so many mangas especially in the romance genre stuff only happens every like 50 chapters, while here in 15 chapters it feels like stuff has actually happened and their relationship makes sense. If anything my only real complaint is that theres not more chapters because this is really good.
Also I feel it's important to note that this is areally stupid manga and the love triangle (+?) or whatever it is, is stupid yet again it's really good at the same time? idk how honestly. (Also the MC being called Sora made me laugh being a big KH fan. and yes I know it's just a regular name but still)

Another veery generic manga with a compltely unoriginal idea. It's a fun enough read though.
Short main 2 characters are pretty likeable everyone else kinda sucks though bar the dad. but I mean it's focused on the main couple so it's mostly fine. They aren't great characters but their likeable and their relationship makes enough sense for me to believe it, and actually enjoy it. Doesn't mean it's super well written, but like it's good enough.
There's really only so much you can say for this type of manga honestly, it's a very generic premise and it's basically what you would expect. It's not bad, well written
...
relative to other slop mangas. Don't go out of your way to read this but it's enjoyable enough for a quick read if you're bored.

I'm sure that if I read more I would start to come around on Gantz at least a little more, because there aspects I enjoy, it's pretty funny for example, and the plot is pretty interestin. Though the issues with the manga are so great I just can't bring myself to read any more.
I'll be honesty I only started reading Gantz because I wanted to see the you aight white boy panel (which I know is edited I still wanted to read) but god this mana is kinda evil. Not the MC I don't mind him being a bad person because first of all I'm
...
like 99% certain he'll go through some big character arc and change but like even still I'm sure he'll be a ass. He's so uniteresting and boring and on top of that he's just really mean, which yes I get is the point but still I hate him and just don't care enough about him to continue reading, especially when the manga trys to make me feel sorry for him despite him being scum. He so upset that the girl who what doesn't love him so I should feel bad? despite the fact he was going to let her get SAd, tried to SA her himself among all the other shit he did. Now if the story somehow does actually redeem him, or make him interesting or whatever then you know what I'll pick the manga back up. But I just don't want to at all. Despite the plot being interesting I can already see how it'll turn out roughly, presumablly repeating very similar plot points time after time etc.
Maybe one day I'll pick the manga up and give it another shot, but currently there's no chance of that. feels very sexist and just has the most unlikeable boring protaginst ever. Maybe it'll get good, and you know what I probabbly will give it a second shot if I get some convincig argument or whatever, but for now I have 0 desire to continue reading. I 'm sure if people don't mind my main 2 complaints they'd enjoy it alot more, because there are indeed some interesting plot points, I just have little expectation that they'll be pulled off well honestly, how I wish to be proven wrong though. It has some ok action as well, idk give it a shot but I would set expectations super low.

As a quick sum up of feelings, this isn't a good manga yet it isn't a bad one. If you want something trashy to fill your time for 30 or so chapters then this is good enough. There's nothing special about it, very generic main characters and the other characters just kinda appear and that's it there's really no growth etc and the attempts at character growth are there... but again nothing happens. Just a manga where nothing of interest really happens.
There seems to be some sort of relationship between the 2 leads, yets at the same time they barely even seem to
...
be friends. The mangas all over the place and it doesn't really have a set goal in mind. It very much seems to try and go for some sort of arc yet again nothing ever happens, it sets something up in one chapter, and then once again nothing happens.
A very directionless manga that has some nice art and enjoyable enough chapters, but really a very nothing manga. don't go in with any expectations and you can find some form of enjoyment, because it still has some redeeming factors. Only read if you want something quick to get you through a afternoon or something idk.

This is basically a super generic manga with the Authors very specific fetishs being sprinkled in, yet somehow I kinda ended up quite liking it.
It's the basic plot you'd expect and it's really nothing special, and the characters aren't exactly special or super interesting. Which is alot of negtaives considering I gave it a 7 and reccomend it, which I mean maybe a 7s a bit too high and a 6 would fit more I can't deny that, yet somehow it's just a very fun read. It's not super funny or anythung but it's enjoyable enough that I found myself actually wanting to continue
...
reading. So that's clearly proof of something. Mostly just reading it with a smile or a chuckle every now and then, even when theirs a awfully strange closeup of the female leads armpit which luckily is only like one panel but still. As a warning I'll say the main 2 fetishs that have a few appearnces are about Sweat and Armpits (and theres like one chapter about feet) again I don't know why I enjoyed this stuff because those fetishes disgust me.
Something that I did find neat though, is that something unique this manga does do is that the MCs main friend is actually a girl (not the main club one) but many mangas like this would just have the MC boy have like 2 friends that are other incel like boys but surpisgnly not here. This doesn't change the fact it's by far a crazy generic plot and everything. I would very much call this trash slop but like it's a fun read to be honest. It's worth a shot, if you want something short and fun to pass the time, but it's really nothing special.
It does feature a very buff girl as the female lead so that's something I suppose as you rarely see a manga have a girl with actual muscles. Though this manga and objectificiation go together very well because every chapter theres some form of objectifaction. I guess being a anime fan for so long makes you numb to these things eventually (again why do I like this)
Anyway a fun manga that is basically the best slop you can get, because god it's the most generic plot you could have with equally generic characters, yet I find myself enjoying it somehow.
I don't know why I really bothered writing this because this manga is like the last thing I'd want on my profile. but ehh, I honestly enjoyed it, which I guess I just can't get over to be honest. Oh well, slops good every now and then
(also I originally gave it a 7 but after thinking a bit more and reading some more slop type stuff because I'm bored ranking here goes down. still a good enough manga but 7 is too high)

A beautiful film that I fell in love with quite quickly. It was very harsh at the start and with not knowing anything about the film I was really wondering where it was going, but I quickly understood. I really do feel I can't bring justice to everything in the film but it really was a beautiful film that I wanted to try and say something. There's cleary so much effort put into every aspect of this film and it's so clear. The music while subtle is again beautiful and does so much to enhance every scene. Just everything honestly, the direction of
...
every scene is so well done, such as with the faces and everything I just can't get over how amazing it is honestly though I really don't want to just ramble (though too late I suppose). Anyway regradless a beautiful film that I did cry at honestly. and while I may think some characters were way too harsh and redeemed a bit too easily, I don't mind too much. If anything all I want is more from the central characters. Because the main chracters growth is so great and honestly belivable and I would've loved to see more from the main couples relationship that in a way felt a bit unfafiled, though it didn't really need to be as it was all implied. and honestly some of it may be due to me not understanding JSL. Which is also a amazing thing the amount of effort that would be needed especially as it's all hands is crazy.
Overall a film I respect alot and has very quickly become one of my all time favourites.

Overall a good manga defintley, however I really feel it gets stale after 10 chapters or so. Maybe it's just me but I really have no care for either of the leads, they can be funny and have some nice moments but it just kinda feels like going through the motions I suppose, just really lost my interest quite quickly. I finished it becaused it was short but this isn't anything super special or anything, if you want a short romcom with some funny bits worth a read, but it really isn't anything special and characters aren't really too memorable. Wish I could've liked it

After hearing the name of this manga and someone claiming that it was actually really good I had to know, so despite the premise being possibly the most off putting thing in the world i gave it a shot, and honestly it actually is really good.
It's not perfect by any means, but for what it is, it's super unique and the story actually kept me invested and I somehow started to care for Kurosawa despite everything about him, and by the end I actually really liked him. HOWEVER, with some of the stuff he does I still feel he's too easily forgiven, I understand
...
that alot of it isn't shown on screen but I kinda feel that we should've seen him apologising to people or something, because what he did is very hard to forgive and I'm not agaisnt forgiving people but especially when it comes to sexual assault / harresment that is very hard to ever forgive, and he did admit to it and he did apolgise to people idk how to feel about a lack of repurcussion, like I understand that there was but even still it just feels like he deserved more punishment. Really hard to put into words, though for the age they are in the story and the ability to change which Kurosawa very clearly does throughout the story I guess I can accept it. Also the dating thing with the first girl is strange, I think they get along well at the end of the manga but either way idk how to feel. Though I guess a major aspect of the plot is that people can change and I do believe that and the manga makes a big point of showcasing how people change, with Kurosawa ,the libary girl, the first victim etc (I suck at names, especially in short manga) and also how Kithara doesn't change and how she's basically left behind because of that. idk though I have no brain so I probably dont understand everything, either way I honestly really enjoyed this manga and was invested in what happened, which again I really did not think I would care about the Masterbation Master manga but here we are
And also I do wish I could give it a 10 but like I said I still don't know how to feel about Kurosawas lack of repurcussions, because on one hand I'm glad he was able to change and people were able to accept that, but also what he did was majorly fucked up and I know he gets insane amount of bullying etc but I just feel like it's missing something idk

I've also been following the manga for a while and this is my 3rd reread, with my first read through being up to Chapter 20ish? I think, and my second being up to the hiatus. So I'm a big fan of this manga, Super high reccomendation if you're looking for a romance manga that actually has stuff happen.
Maybe a too high rating sure but I really love this manga, I love the growth of the characters it never really feels stagnant. The start is signifcantly more horny and mean than the rest of the manga. The hornyness makes sense since so many manga are
...
super horny in the first 5 - 10 chapters and then it's just gone for most of it after. and the MCs being mean/ super harsh is intended for the character growth which I personally found really well written. I enjoy the dynamic between the 2 mcs, again due to their growth and believable chemistry. Just a well written manga with some nice pacing that never feels likes it going through the motions, as so many manga feel like they just get stuck in the same period of time with the characters never growing or changing, though in this manga stuff happens and it's super enjoyable to read and watch characters develop. (I have like 1 minor complaint with a specific character but overall I have very few issues with this)

Despite the strange title and the strange concept of being based on a 2chan thread this manga is honestly one of the best I've read ever. I read alot of manga but this one has defintley stood out to me, the writing throughout this manga is incredible and honestly has super realistc dialogue, especially between Kansai and Molester. Mangas is super funny and just a really sweet romance manga. The length adds to it as well, it's short and doesn't drag out at all. So without anymore droning on about it, this Manga is amazing just don't let the strange name fool you
Will defintley be
...
a frequent reread for me
