Marriagetoxin is an ongoing manga that's an absolute joy to read and it needs more recognition, please give it a chance!

The art is extremely solid, if not fantastic. The panels are stuffed with details that are easy to miss if you're flying through the material, but they do so much to elevate the work as a whole—the amount of care and attention put into this aspect is actually impressive. Action scenes are crisp, easy to follow, and never boring to look at.

The characters, while not anything extraordinary, are strong. It's quite difficult not to fall in love with Gero's character when watching him navigate ... talking to women, only for him deliver the most unintentionally out-of-place response imaginable. His chemistry with Kinosaki is nothing short of brilliant—they play off of each other really well, and it's always funny. Comedy in this series is absurd to the fullest (almost in a Baki sort of way, but without the body horror). From a thug who spits lead boba at his enemies, to that time a character carved an ENTIRE violin out of a tree, only to immediately throw it at Gero, wasting his craftsmanship...absurdity is found around every corner.

The plot isn't pushing any new boundaries either, but it doesn't have too if the characters keep managing to be as fun/entertaining as they have been. All in all, Marriagetoxin deserves a read and I could not recommend it enough.
