STORY 10/10
Getting into delinquent manga I never expected to read such a dang good Story I feel stupid having watched Great Teacher Onizuka before reading this. It shows the entire history of oni baku. Love how realistic it flows through out from start to finish and the fighting on fighting fighting on fighting Was good, crazy and funny. There was a surprising amount of good romance involved some having me on the floor laughing. A problem I find in many manga is the ending doesn’t work with the build up but with Shonan it felt good yet not completely finished which is perfect because it got its sequel.
ART 10/10
Holy shit! cool ass bikes everywhere! What can I say the art is so good and old school and the scenes aged very well for a 90s manga You can really feel the yankiis, sukeban and bosozoku culture everywhere. I loved how the author can do both goofy funny art and detailed fighting art also giving Focus on scenery and very nice ladies designs.
CHARACTERS 10/10
The oni baku flowed so good with the entire story and I liked how the author gave side characters time to shine instead of just using them once and never Showing them again. Showing personal life of side characters was a very good touch making it even more realistic something you don’t see very often and made me understand them better even if it was a classmate or a villain.
OVERALL 10/10
If you read this far man you gotta read it what are you waiting for
There’s a ton of other delinquent manga so don’t worry if you binge it in a week.
