This is a story about a family of three girls who are living with out parents. It follows there daily life's, which are as average as mine and yours, and is a humor based tale. it is not a manga full of stupid events that make you laugh and outright ridiculous humor, it is of the dry humor variety. It delivers witty remarks and daily happenings that make you chuckle think and chuckle some more. If your looking for a light hearted humorous read that brighten your day this is great.

This is the epitome of a timepasser manga. It's a non-progressing comedy manga that's consistently funny throughout, but never hilarious. While there's not a single thing about it that stands out, everything works well together. While the occasional side character is stupidly one-dimensional, it's not much of an issue for a manga that has no higher aspirations than making you laugh.

The only real issue I have with it is that it's way too hard to keep track of all the side characters (especially Haruka's friends, some of which I still can't tell apart after 305 chapters). I could take issue with things like weak character-building, ... lack of a story, generic art (okay, I have issue with the triangular mouths, they look stupid and add nothing, but that's just a nitpick), but they never get in the way of my enjoyment so I don't really care. The lack of progression makes it tedious to try and marathon it, but if you only read a couple chapters once in a while, it should be fine.

All in all, Minami-kek is an average manga. Its only goal is to make the reader kek, and it's fairly successful at that. If you're only looking to read the best of the best, there is no reason to read it, but if you got 10 minutes to spare you're unsure what to do with, a couple chapters of this is a good way to spend them.
