Preliminary (66/? chp)
Toilet Bound Hanako Kun is a very unique manga
Endlessly entertaining, the kind of thing that really puts a smile on my face. Or just makes me feel sad.
Sometimes it’s cute and funny, sometimes it’s dark and depressing.
Not like Made in Abyss, it’s not nearly as gruesome. It’s more subtle with the occasionally dark themes it presents. It’s not really “disturbing” in any way.
The art is amazing, creepy and cute all at the same time. It’s the kind of art that works for comedic cute moments and works for the occasional darker moments. It’s remarkably detailed and consistent, and something that you can appreciate even if you hate the story. The character designs are all extremely cute and unique too.
One big strength in this manga are the characters. They’re all very VERY cute. I have never found myself hating any of them. They’re the kinda characters you want to protecc. I would say the least likable is the protagonist Nene. She’s a bit useless, and in love with being in love. Her defining feature is her radish legs. Yes, really. But despite her more annoying aspects, she’s pretty adorable in her own radish way. Hanako and Minamoto are better, two very good boys with lovable personalities.
The story of the manga is simple with no real overarching story line, at least not at this point in the manga. However, it just works and is compelling enough to keep you entertained throughout. Though the story itself is not the selling point of this manga. The comedy is a bit hit or miss, but overall it all just works.
This manga is very fun to read, and easy to marathon. If you want an entertaining manga to spend time on in times of quarantine, it’s a good read that I would enthusiastically recommend. Easily one of my all time favorites.
