"It's funny, it's vulgar, it does not care about social norms, and [it just] has fun with it all." -random dude on the MAL forums
STORY: 9/10
The premise of Ishuzoku Reviewers is very simple: four dudes go around touring brothels, and publish an article about their thoughts. It becomes a hit and they decide to keep doing it.
It's a relatively unique premise and it delivers well. It's a bunch of bros making a lot of innuendos and dad jokes, and I'm all for it. I definitely recommend reading the full reviews.
In comparison to other ecchi comedies, the humor in this manga is more thought-out in that
...
it does not rely on the stereotypical ecchi encounters to force the reader to laugh. There are no dense protagonists tripping into high school girls' bosoms randomly. Instead you have a bunch of horny guys doing what horny guys typically do when they're horny, and having fun with it.
The best part is that it doesn't get repetitive. The author constantly comes up with fresh ideals for what kind of brothels will be conquered next.
ART: 9/10
It's rougher around the edges, definitely not something you would see in your typical generic slice of life manga. In a way, this really brings out the personality in all of the characters and brothels, as they appear with more distinction and depth. With this playfully vulgar approach to ecchi comedy, it fits perfectly. I'm no art critic, but I think it's pretty darn good.
CHARACTER: 8/10
The main cast is made of a colorful assembly of a human (Stank), an elf (Zel), and a fallen angel (Crimvael), although they usually take other additional members, such as a halfling, demon, etc. They go around touring different brothels with girls from different species, and they often have mixed opinions about these women. One thing they all tend to enjoy, however, is big oppai.
Stank reflects most of us horny males out there. He's got human tastes, cares mostly about appearance rather than "mana." He's mostly an average guy and his critique is usually positive, if possible. Somehow, perhaps because he's an adventurer, he and Zel are more reserved when money is on the line.
Zel, an elf and fellow adventurer, is significantly older and argues with Stank often about what is considered attractive. In fact, their first article is about elves, and Stank is the only one who sees them positively because they look young, while Zel rates them the lowest because they have the worst mana. His thoughts are usually either parallel or a direct contrast to Stank.
Crimvael is an angel, and is thus more innocent and reserved than the other two adventurers. Nonetheless, he has his innocence forcibly taken away after "being saved" by Stank and Zel. He sometimes has a good time when others don't thanks to his angel powers, and only dislikes it when his too-big dick is discriminated against or seen by his friends. It's noted that he has both male and female parts, which makes for a few hilarious situations.
ENJOYMENT: 9/10
I had a great time reading this manga. It had just the right amount of ecchi for me not to be horny but still enough to make the pervy situations fun to watch. This is definitely a comedy you should be looking out for in the future.
FINAL SCORE: 9 and a Lord Twigo out of 10
