An exploration of the world through characters outside of it, that is the axis of this post-apocalyptic narration, it never ends up revealing exactly what the causes were because it doesn't matter, you only needed to imagine the excuse you prefer in order to tell the key elements, the cute protagonic pair, Chito and Yuuri.

They have opposite personalities, Chito is attentive and studious, while Yuuri is more relaxed and calm, daily they complement each other in their journeys through the world dyed in white. The structure of the manga will quickly become apparent after reading a few chapters, the pair arrive at ...

Akira (Manga) add
English (Translated with www.DeepL.com/Translator)

As a title, "Akira" will always provoke the same reaction, remembering the 1988 film which is inevitable, the feature film is one of the most important works of the medium. Its influence present in mentions or philosophies, what it meant for the 90's to come or the connection it had with the West, make up an imprint that few have come to have, and that has also made manga develop its own mysticism.

Aside from its accolades, Akira's film is in an awkward position, despite its far-reaching influence, it is rarely included in most "best picture" lists, and it's because of one factor, ...

First I must clarify that I really have no complaints or observations about the manga, if I have not given it a perfect score now is merely because it has not been a turning point in my consumption of media but I do not rule out that at some point I could see in retrospect and if consider it as such. And whether or not over time this question is resolved or not, it is extraneous to what the work is, a solid story about a teenager's most difficult confrontation, the one he has against himself.

The plot is well known so I'll pass on recounting ...

Nisekoi (Manga) add
English (Translated with www.DeepL.com)

The great enemy of Nisekoi is its overlength. It lasts longer than it should, in itself, the base is interesting enough to have given a good story, of reference we have the One Shot, which in its few pages reaches the same conclusion as its serialized counterpart after more than 200 episodes "What the One Shot does not have this tangled plot of discoveries and revelations?” Better

The story when not engrossed in its repetitive arcs or weekly filler, is focused on the mystery surrounding the girl with the key. Of course there was interest at the time in deducing who the promise ...

Mixed Feelings
Spoiler
English (Translation using deepl )

Honesty is vital in a work, regarding what it is, what it wants to achieve from its reader and by means of what form, it is not necessary that it happens immediately, it usually happens during the course, at a certain moment the consumer understands the key points and accepts them, with this he can evaluate if the author is complying or not with his proposal. In this context, Three Days is not sincere, it is hypocritical.

In the first chapters, the protagonist's lack of interest in his environment is evident, he has little interest in socializing or sharing, which ends up ...

Ichigo 100% (Manga) add
English (translate using Deepl)

Manaka has become my favorite protagonist of the school romantic harem because unlike other examples that are mentioned when referring to "characters dedicated to the reader to be projected on them" and that I find, to say the least, difficult, given that they are boys with characteristics that define a gallant (brave, attentive to their environment, pleasant) making any attempt at identification unsuccessful. Manaka is not like that.

He is socially awkward, he does not understand his feelings or those of others, he is unable to communicate to express what he genuinely thinks, much less act on it, and his bravery is only ...

Reading the most voted reviews it is clear how we were all surprised by its change of tone in the narrative. The final stretch of the first part grows in scale to the typical fight between two great powers to save the "world", in that case, the Academy. The second reaches the same kind of denouement but its story does not take place in the institute, in fact, its development occurs almost entirely outside of it, because its scope is extended both at the level of context (world outside the Academy) and narrative (the fight is now for the world).

The foundation from the previous part ...

En un sketch de Gintama (en alguno de sus enésimos episodios) Gintoki defendía como la existencia de To Love Ru por su valor en ser el manga que aún muestra pezones en la revista Shonen por emblema del país, y aunque sea parodia, tiene completamente la razón. En el décimo aniversario de la saga se publica To Love Ru Chronicle dónde diferentes autores realizaron sus propios homenajes a la saga y todos agradeciendo una y otra vez a Yabuki, y por último, cuándo creó su cuenta de Twitter el primer tweet llega a más de los 200 K me gusta y cada vez que publica ...

Berserk (Manga) add
Preliminary (380/? chp)
English

This text is more for commitment than intention, I have the habit of writing a review in MAL when I finish a manga, that's simply it, and that's why these paragraphs, but I can’t pretend to write a review about Berserk, it is impossible, plainly impossible. Let's start with the approach I should adopt in the review, we could analyze it only as the work it is, without considering neither the time, the period nor the effects... it would be useless. It began its publication in 1989, it has 32 years of history and of course, there are manga that have lasted much longer, and ...

What does a work need to reach 10? You know, the masterpiece, the supposed perfection. It depends mostly on the critic, I have never believed that nonsense of objective criticism, if it were so there would be no need for reviewers, indeed, nor spectators, all art would be produced for that single entity, the invisible judge who will say "good or bad". But fortunately it is not like that, everyone has their own voice built with experiences and proximities, with the considerations to say, "this here, this, is incomparable".

And with this strange introduction I want to say that Bocchi's little story belongs (in my ...
