More Manga Review
Sep. 13th, 2014 09:45 amIn my quest to find a new weekly manga to review for our podcast, I keep stumbling into EVEN MORE monthly manga that I enjoy. The latest one is a futuristic, action-adventure manga called Hitogatana. My review is posted here: http://mangakast.wordpress.com/2014/09/13/hitogatana-chapters-1-21-a-review/
The short of it is that I liked it... A LOT.
There are a couple of really cool female characters and I love the premise of fighting teams with mech, "katana," that they download their consciousness into.
Weirdly, the next one I stumbled into that I seem to be reading? A shojo (girls') manga called Tora to Ookami. I've only ever read an enjoyed one other shojo before and that was Absolute Boyfriend. Tora to Ookami has no science fiction going for it, so I'm not sure what the appeal is so far. There are only 12 chapters and it's complete, but I think part of why I got sucked in is that thing that sometimes hooks me... slice-of-life about food.
If I finish it, I'll let you know what I think of it. Also, Naomi loaned me the latest Ms. Marvel, so I get to find out how I feel about the introduction of Lockjaw....
