Oboreru Knife is a good story shoujo manga. which drama is focused in a really realistic way, there are not too much dreamy pinky situations, that make the story very interesting and you don't feel it empty.
About the graphics, they have a unique style. The eyes are big but the mangaka maintains the shape of a real eye, and it makes a mature impression. Also, the mangaka don't use too mane shadows on the characters and if she use it, the shadows are represented by consecutives lines, but most of the times you see the characters in white and black, with only lines standing

This is the shoujo to go for if you're sick and tired of silly heroines.
The story isn't all that interesting and new in the beginning, but it does take some little turns and it amps up along the way, I really can't say much for it because it hasn't been completely subbed yet by anybody. When it comes to art, I like Geroge Asakura's art style, the characters are very doe-eyed and it's very endearing, re-reading it again made me realize that as the characters aged in the manga, they were drawn in a more mature way that was so slight it seemed almost realistic. You ...

Anyone who calls this a love story is out of their minds. This is a manga about two psychotic and truly mentally troubled individuals. Case and point the male lead nearly drowns the female lead by chapter 2 as a power move. All the characters except the female lead's secondary love interest are awful human beings, the secondary love interest being the direct opposite and the only good and upstanding person in the manga, so obviously she obliterates his heart and NTRs him.
Reading this manga will not leave you feeling happy. You will finish it and hate the characters. It is an amazing manga ...

This manga is super edgy. The storyline was unexpected and really digs deep into each character's sense of purpose after experiencing crisis, relationships, and growing up. The main characters have bold personalities (be prepared) and are hard to understand at times but as the series progresses, I couldn't help but want to try and understand why they thought or acted the way they did. It was pretty creepy at times too, especially with some side characters in particular. This is definitely not a wholesome shoujo (no doki doki moments for me). More like a drama-filled maybe josei genre with an agreeable ending.

I think this was my first manga where I really wanted to scream at the characters, even though I understantood their motives and thoughts.
I should really give credit to the author for how well she depicted the way people tend to put other individuals on a pedestal, looking at them like they are some Gods. This is a thing most kids are doing just to later realise that those so called Gods are normal people too and their image of them is broken. The only problem I had is that I hoped some of the characters will mature a bit more in the end, but ...

Drowning Love starts with a bang, maybe my favorite first chapter of any series I’ll read this coming year. Within chapter 1, Natsume (the MC) has been well introduced and intrigue surrounds her budding relationship with Kou (the secondary male MC). Early on, it doesn’t take long for additional aspects to be developed that make things more satisfying and gripping to follow. Natsume and Kou’s relationship, no matter how it changes, is very turbulent throughout the series. Their relationship and curiosity around one another explores a wide range, from negative motivations, to genuine desires for connection and acknowledgement, to uncertainty and assumptions leading to unintended
