I'm not the type that gives review but upon seeing the current rating of this kinda forced me to write this review.

Hen is one of many under-rated yuri genre manga. Reading this decades after it was release was really a struggle at first because the art much different to current manga arts now a days but it is really worth it. Don't let the title mislead you. For me, what they meant by "HEN" was "weird".

STORY: 10
The story is deeper that it appears to be. It shows different views of relationships straight, bisexual, or gay. Daily life of people going through emotional / character change. ... I think this could also classify as a 'slice of life' as well.

ART: 8
As I've said before, the art is not that grand nor trending as the one now a days but considering the time it was published and the materials and tools available. I think it was great and you can actually adapt to it in due time.

CHARACTERS: 9
I like how each of the character was introduced and how the author was able to build each one without ruining the main plot. At first some of them are like a homohomo/npc characters but it's fun on how they was able to support the main characters in later part of the manga.

ENJOYMENT: 10
As you can see on my scores, I really enjoyed this manga. I don't like long ready but it's too good once it hits you. There are some part that I find funny especially the characters expressions and sometimes over reaction to stuff. LOL

OVERALL: 9
It's awesome and I think this manga deserved a higher rating than it currently have! I hope you can enjoy this as much as I did.

As much as I like the artwork, the story and characters are nothing special. At the beginning, it all makes sense but progressively,the situation with Chizuru becomes more unrealistic. There is suspense, but only a very small amount. So personally, reading this was only enjoyable because of the artwork. It is more of a shoujo-ai than a yuri, but there are some sex scenes, both heterosexual and lesbian.

Hen Is what I would call an utter disaster that goes on way too long, overstaying its overstretched plot welcome. It's so bad; maybe you should stick to relevant popular media instead of this ecchi, cheesy mess.

A story of lesbian twisted fowl nature which never passes as being homophobic nevertheless becomes the main center point of the plot element. Amongst Yoshida, Chizuru nudity sexy busty mind games that go on way too long. Between several characters, one who she’ll prioritize beyond comfortableness. Yet she’s sixteen and has countless sex day-to-day shenanigans?

It begins off well, sort of, with the main focus on a perverted soon-to-be pedo ... teacher, and right away, stakes are high in the story. I forgot when he left. But after twenty chapters, it gets many spikes down among repetitiveness throughout, until the earthquake part. Where the manga switches it up a notch yet still seems far too repetitive, a terrible slice-of-life story for real. A 16-year-old has sex with a 6th grader what a grand view of a story.

Nothin' frankly happens until the last few chapters amongst its cringe-gender plot twist. A terrible ending: lets us go and marry elsewhere, basically in the USA, where they somehow legalized gay marriage in the 90s, or who cares, it’s THE END.
