For the record, This isn't meant to be a serious portrayal of the life of Rock Lee. Its a gag manga, one should not begin reading expecting to see Rock Lee kick ass.

Contrary to most opinions I've read, I find this manga incredibly hilarious. Everything that makes Rock Lee great: His determination, willpower, quirky personality, perverted tendencies, are on full display in this series. Unlike Shuppuden where side characters take a backseat to Naruto & Sasuke, in this manga you will see more appearances from characters you may favor. Neji, Ten Ten, Ino, Guy, and others make numerous appearances throughout the series, adding creative dialog ... to this laugh out loud manga.

The artwork is a cross between adorable and hilarious. All characters are drawn in Chibi form, which in and of itself is funny. You thought Might Guy was funny? Wait until you see him with a head 2x's bigger than his body. The Nine Tails looks totally harmless and even Naruto's kyuubi cloak makes him look like a kitten

I find it hard to believe that any Naruto fans would find fault with this manga. With all the fighting and peril occurring currently in Naruto, wouldn't you like to take a break from the drama? Arrive at the manga website of your choice, find this series, and laugh until your heart is content. Rock Lee and his crazy adventures await.

At the moment I'm writing this, there were only thirty-one chapters released (and two specials).
I'm gonna be very honest right from the scratch: I love Rock Lee. His effort, his optimism, his hard work, and most important, his crazy awesome attitude made him, along his mentor, one of the most popular characters on Naruto (at least, I heard he's pretty popular).

Rock Lee no Seishun Full-Power Ninden is a humor manga, that follow Guy's team adventures. In this work, Rock Lee, the hard work genius, train and use not only his classic and amazing taijutsu, but another crazy techniques that will ... make you laugh hard (but i cannot tell much without spoilers). Besides Lee, there's Neji Hyuga, the elite genius, who is more relaxed and kinder here, and do a few hilarious stuff (but not in the crazy levels of Lee and Guy); and Tenten, the sane member, the one who's always surprised and shocked about Lee's actions (she occasionally hit him in a humorous tsundere way). And of course, I didn't forget the team leader, Might Guy... who didn't change that much in this version, since he's amusing already. Occasionally, other characters appear, like Naruto and Konohamaru, being Sakura the most recurrent (for obvious reasons).

The character design is cute, the chibi versions are really funny. Tenten is pretty and Neji's face when Lee does something "Leeish" is priceless. Guy and Lee... again, they're pretty much themselves. The jutsus are well done, in a parodic funny way (the summoning jutsu from chapter one is an excellent example).
The only bad thing about this is the irregularity: you just don't know when it will be a new chapter... at least at first. Now the series is monthly, so, problem solved!

But anyways, this is a great little manga, a funny spin-off about characters with not much screen time in the original work (Tenten has more characterization here than in the manga). So, you wanna laugh? Read this, and let this youthful and hot blooded manga embrace you!

Al momento de escribir esta review, salieron veinticinco capítulos y dos especiales.
Voy a ser muy directo: me encanta Rock Lee. Su esfuerzo, su optimismo, su sacrificio, y lo más importante de todo, su locura interminable, lo hacen, junto a su mentor, uno de los personajes más populares de Naruto (al menos, muy populares).

Rock Lee no Seishun Full-Power Ninden es un manga de humor, que se centra en las peripecias del equipo de Guy. En esta obra, Rock Lee, el genio del trabajo duro, entrena y demuestra el poder no solo de su clásico taijutsu, sino que también emplea otras muchas técnicas (que no puedo comentar por cuestión de spoilers), con resultados hilarantes. El resto del equipo lo conforma Neji Hyuga, el genio del equipo, que, dado el tono de este manga, está mucho más relajado y es mucho más amable, al tiempo que hace alguna que otra payasada (sin llegar a los niveles de Guy o Lee, y siempre por una buena causa); y Tenten la más centrada del grupo, casi siempre es la que resalta y se escandaliza por lo que hace Lee, al mismo tiempo que le mete algún que otro golpe, pero siempre con cariño. Y no podía olvidarme de mencionar al líder del grupo, Might Guy... que básicamente es el mismo, sin muchos cambios de una versión a otra. Y es que es difícil hacer que Guy o Lee sean más graciosos de lo que ya son. De vez en cuando aparecen otros personajes, como Naruto o Konohamaru, siendo Sakura la más habitual (por razones obvias).

El dibujo es muy simpático, los personajes de Naruto en versión chibi son muy graciosos. Tenten está muy bonita n_n, y la cara de Neji cuando tiene que soportar a Lee es invaluable; y tanto Lee como Guy... de nuevo, son ellos mismos. En cuanto a las técnicas, son desternillantes (en serio: uno simplemente no puede parar de reír, el jutsu de invocación que se ve en el primer capítulo es un excelente ejemplo), y están muy bien realizadas.

Bueno, no tengo mucho más que decir, dado que no hay mucho material disponible (ese podría ser el único punto medio malo: la serie es irregular, y no se sabe cuándo van a salir capítulos nuevos), pero esta obra es altamente recomendable si te gusta Naruto. Simplemente, es un spin off muy, muy, MUY gracioso, que se centra en personajes que la obra principal deja bastante de lado (Tenten tiene más caracterización acá que en el manga...). Veredicto: quieren reírse un rato? Lean esto, y dejen que su sangre arda y que la juventud los invada!

I really don't mind Rock Lee or anything, but this series... it's just no, just no. I couldn't even get past the 3rd chapter (didn't bother more accurately). Rock Lee, like Gai, is only good in doses in my opinion, which is why I never had a problem with Lee before or Gai-sensei. This series is just terrible and kind of disturbing (oh my poor eyes). For those who like this series, no offense, it's just how I and a few of my friends believe. yes, please think that I am crazy for hating this series. Love Lee, but not a huge fan of this ... series. I don't recommand this series who only like Lee in doses like myself (or absolutely hate Lee). For those who like and don't mind Lee and/or a huge fan of him, carry on and enjoy this series while it last.
