TL:DR
Short and cute, retroactively ruined at the very end by creepiness.
Story: 3/10
It's not amazingly complex or deep but it's a cute little story of finding family with some decent comedy. There's not much to discuss about the story itself except that the cute story of a tutor's relationship with his student is retroactively made really creepy by the author's note at the end stating outright that the man is a lolicon which makes a lot of the cute moments or Coco's crush on Nidell read a lot different. It kind of ruins the manga for me.
Character: 6/10
The characters aren't very complicated, as you'd expect from
...
a 6 chapter long manga they're a little cookie cutter but they're good enough.
Coco is an endearing character, being a cute and energetic 10 year old looking for a parental figure.
Nidell, the other protagonist isn't all that interesting, not much to go off except being a little stand-offish and ambitious. Oh also he's a lolicon which makes everything about this manga creepy as hell.
Nidell's brother is somewhat interesting character because he acts like the trope of a noble looking down on his bastard sibling but subverts this by genuinely caring about him (not a spoiler, it's really obvious).
Art
The art is decent, not much to say but it works.
Overall: 3/10
Without that revelation at the end, the manga would be a passable cutesy manga to for a cosy read but the note at the end about the protagonist being a lolicon just makes the whole thing kind of icky. If you can ignore that then it's a decent read when you want something light.

TL:DR
Crazy psychedelic art and an interesting dark fantasy concept but the execution is a complete let down.
Story: 5/10
The manga is mostly a sort of episodic story with vignettes of different situations, with the same two main characters and an attempt at an overarching plot.
The overarching arc of the manga is the wizard's Howcuttle hunt for a cure to his cursed hunger and the child Beni's quest to find a mysterious figure from her past - and of course how the relationship between the two develops. Unfortunately nothing really happens towards either of their goals. However, Howcuttle does start to care about Beni but this is
...
shallow and just sort of happens without any event initiating this or anything being shown to develop their relationship.
Many of the concepts of the manga are severely underdeveloped, it's hampered significantly by being so short. Some of the scenarios explored seem rather uninteresting as well, I feel only one of them really stuck with me, and the manga doesn't have many chances to impress given it's length.
I also feel like the end was kind of strange (not in a good way), the manga seems to rush into what feels like the very dramatic end of a story we haven't seen. No spoilers but it involves that aforementioned mysterious figure and it entirely falls flat because we basically knew nothing about them and didn't learn anything during the rest of the manga so it just comes out of nowhere. There isn't nearly enough build-up to make the reader care about the reveal.
Really, most problems with the manga can be blamed on the short length of the manga.
Character: 4/10
The main characters are rather simple, there histories get a little bit of exploration and it is interesting. There are some interesting side characters in the one vignette I enjoyed but otherwise there isn't anyone else matters.
Art
The art is incredible with awesome psychedelic imagery at times. It's dark sometimes, goofy other times. Definitely the highlight of the manga.
Overall: 5/10
While I find the execution lacking, the manga is worth reading for the art and for the one good scenario. It is a short read so it's worth it for that alone.

TL:DR
A hidden gem, mixes office comedy and genuine military fiction and manages to pull it off with endearing characters and interesting world building, highly recommend.
Story: 9/10
You might be surprised to see what seems like simple comedy manga to be rated so high but looks are deceiving, this manga is a true hidden gem. It's this strange mix of bureaucratic office comedy and military fiction played-straight that almost shouldn't work but the author pulls it off beautifully, I was laughing one chapter and then in shock the next. To be clear the vast majority of the manga is light hearted comedy but there are some chapters
...
of real pathos.
Well, first things of: this manga is really funny. It's got good gag comedy, absurdist comedy and situation driven comedy. There's not much to say about this point so I'll get it out of the way now but just know this manga really made me laugh. It will probably be better if you're a military nerd or just like seeing the more mundane side of warfare.
While there is a lot of character driven comedy, this is something of a gag manga, even much of the comedy is derived from lampooning the absurdity inherent to war. For example, the characters might be tasked with accomplishing some ego-drive plan devised by generals who don't really understand the frontlines. Perhaps they need to engage in a project mandated by politicians far from the fighting. Often, they need to break the rules to get anything the most basic and essential things done, dealing with the corruption and morally bankrupt members of their own under-supplied military just to keep things running. Our characters are run ragged just trying to keep their army from collapsing under the sheer weight of incompetence and corruption they deal with, and that's not even taking into account the enemy's army or insurgents in the occupied city.
The strange mix between comedy and military action really serves to elevate both. The comedy is a relief when you've just read about an atrocity and it feels so nice to see our cast in these silly situations when we've been with them through thick and thin. Meanwhile, the horrors of war feel so much worse when it's being experienced by these lovable goof-balls we've come to know, especially as much of the toughest parts comes out of nowhere so it can be a real gut punch. This is not something I've had to say of a comedy before, but no characters is safe and some will die. Not in a blaze of glory but usually as another senseless victim of war.
I think this is one of only pieces of media I have experienced which is really able present the fact that most war is just waiting around for something to happen, punctuated by brief moments of utter tragedy. Many of the story arcs are utterly banal in concept (but very entertaining in execution!) such as trying to deal with supply shortages, with the solution accomplished with a mixture of luck, bribery, corruption and occasionally some light treason - anything that keeps the supplies coming. Then, between the gut-busting comedy, there will be a serious chapter detailing the politics of the conflict, the casual atrocities committed by an occupying army and the moral compromises made by those on all sides. This might be one of the best pieces of anti-war media I've seen so far.
The manga also has a fair amount of world building, not to do with the setting (the countries don't even get names beyond ‘the empire’ or ‘the republic') but rather the instruments of war. In many chapters there will be a full page spread detailing a vehicle, weapon or tool used by one of the armies and what task they were developed and, often, how they failed to accomplish it. It portrays the ingenuity of the military but also their short-sightedness and poor planning or sometimes just they're desperation.
Yet, despite all the grim subject matter, it weaves these two strands (the office comedy and the war story) together so well I almost forget how dark the manga actually is. The characters are so endearing and the comedy so funny that it never felt like a tough read or that I was reading a political screed. As I mentioned before, the manga's tone is what makes the infrequent emotional parts so impactful.
Speaking of impactful, the ending was fantastic. It was an action-packed finale that builds on all the relationships and character development we've had so far and tying off all the loose ends, not neatly as war is rarely so convenient but in a satisfying way. I will warn you though: there is no plot armour in battle and not everyone will get a happy ending.
Characters: 9/10
An uptight new officer who wants things done by the book, a surly ex-convict, an old veteran NCO, a commanding officer more interesting in writing novels than working, a free-wheeling collaborator/traitor, there are many characters in this manga and they are all so well written. Despite such different character archetypes, war makes for strange bedfellows and they have such great chemistry together. The main characters all have very well-realised and believable (if comically exaggerated) personalities with their own character arcs and the supporting cast is endearing and fun in their own right. Even many of the minor side-characters are memorable despite their limited screen time.
Another thing I appreciate is that all the characters are portrayed as so human, in all our wonderful and fallible ways. While many war stories have a “lions led by donkeys” attitude towards militaries, this manga is not afraid to show that the average soldier is capable of being just as corrupt, stupid and just plain incompetent as the worst general - even in the main cast. The author refused to glory soldiers as heroes but portrays them as the people they, sometimes capable of bravery and sometimes capable of cowardice or atrocities. In fact, the character we follow are actually part of the invading army which is occupying an enemy city. While our protagonists are generally the ‘good guys’ (as much as an invading army can be good), their military are not benevolent overlords. And even if they are the best of a rotten bunch, they're still not heroes, they get their hands dirty when they have too. This goes both ways; both the occupying Duchy/Imperial alliance and the enemy Republic are portrayed as flawed but never evil. They're comprised of human and believable characters with understandable motives and actions.
Art
The art is cartoony but quite detailed, much to the manga's benefit. The cartoony feel is great for make the jokes hit harder but also to make it hurt that much harder when something terrible happens.
The character designs are usually simple but distinct and memorable, even for minor characters.
The author is clearly a massive military nerd because the vehicles like tanks and planes are very detailed and whole pages are dedicated to showing them off.
Overall: 9/10
I really did not expect to love this manga as much as I did going in. It's such a good blend of comedy and military fiction. I found it really funny, both as an office comedy and satire of military life while being surprised by how much emotion it could evoke, the ending was amazing and I will not be forgetting this manga anytime soon.
I recommend this to anyone interested in a comedy detailing the more mundane side of military service, without forgetting the tragedy to be found even in the rear lines of a conflict.

[Warning]
nudity, graphic violence, torture
TL:DR
A thrilling and action-packed mystery, with deep (but not particularly endearing) characters and shocking twists. Possibly too many twists.
Story: 7/10
This is a great mystery, with many twists that will keep the reader constantly on edge. It's great at building tension for the dangerous situations our everyman protagonist finds himself in, who manages to be clever while still being believable. The mystery was engrossing and kept me coming back for more to discover just what was going on.
The manga has surprisingly good visual comedy, which makes for a good breather from the very dark circumstances of the plot.
...
I would say manga had too many twists too quickly as it drew to a close, it felt like they were used purely for shock value's sake rather than being of narrative benefit.
Characters: 7/10
The protagonist is the best character, endearingly awkward and relatable yet brave and a quick thinker. He naturally has the most development and the plot revolves around his circumstances in some very interesting ways - though part of it relies on a cultural quirk of Japan that might seem a little ridiculous to a westerner but if you understand how Japan treats the relatives of criminals (badly) then it makes more sense.
Without spoilers, the main character changes part-way through the manga as the mystery deepens in some very interesting ways. However, I do find the post-change protagonist less endearing.
The rest of the cast are not as likeable but they're still important, with all of them having there on secrets. I'll leave them for you the reader to discover. And, despite how vile some of them may be, they are at least understandable or even sympathetic.
Art
Very good. Gruesome and violent, dark and grimy but, when it wants to be, comedic and slapstick. Very much a boon to the manga. Just be wary if you've got a weak stomach.
Overall: 7/10
A very good mystery/thriller manga overall, only held back by being a little half-baked near the end. Still it's very entertaining and I read all of it in less than a week so that's pretty good.
I recommend this manga to those fans of mystery, who don't need the plot to be heavily character driven.

TL:DR
A sweet and laid-back slice-of-life combining a simple, fluffy romance with scenes of life in 18th century Tibet. I wholeheartedly recommend reading this manga.
Story: 7/10
The epitome of slice-of-life with no actual conflicts and no drama. What this manga does have is endearing characters, a cute romance and very interesting insights into a place and time period not frequently covered in manga or western media.
It's not really about medicine despite the male protagonist being a doctor, though there is some of that, but more of general ways of life and culture in 18th century Tibet, which was fascinating and delivered by blending it seamlessly with the
...
day-to-day lives of the characters so it never feels like a lecture but something you're learning naturally throughout the manga - though there are some bonus little facts at the ends of the volumes. It's not exactly a scholarly essay so the manga doesn't cover any topic in depth but it does allow us a glimpse into a time and place so far away from our own, which is always a treat.
The main overarching arc of the manga is the two protagonists falling in love, leading up to their wedding. It's not a very complicated relationship but it is sweet.
The manga is surprisingly funny as well, which adds to the entertainment.
Characters: 8/10
The characters are not complex nor are they extremely interesting but they are endearing and they feel human in a very grounded way befitting the slice-of-life nature of the manga.
The two protagonists, Rati and Khang Zhipa, are fun and endearing with good romantic chemistry and a believable relationship. They have one major quirk each and do not have a lot of character depth but they are likeable and the manga is short enough that it doesn't overstay it's welcome and grow stale.
Art
I adore the art in this manga. It's gorgeous with beautiful scenery and elaborate, historically and culturally accurate outfits. The character designs are cute and I love the way faces are drawn. The artist also has a strong grasp of visual comedy and drawing good reaction faces to accentuate a punchline.
Overall: 8/10
I cute, laidback story and a unique setting make for great reading. I recommend this to anyone who likes slice-of-life or manga set outside of Japan.

TL:DR
A surprisingly complex little story about a little girl (re)finding a family, along with the people who grow with her
Story: 7/10
I came into the manga expecting a simple story of a little girl finding a father figure but it went in a surprisingly different direction. The kid, Rinko, is on more of an equal position to the guy, Haruno. While he's superficially kind, he learns to truly care while being with the kid and learns what's happening with her family. Rinko in exchange gets to feel what a family is like.
It's quite heart warming and more emotionally complex than I first expected. It covers abuse
...
and the ways it affects people in a mature way while not shying away from how the abused can perpetuate the cycle - or break it.
The plot of the manga is primarily about the twin mysteries regarding Rinko's mother and the Haruno's past, it's revealed bit by bit and kept me invested in the manga.
Characters: 7/10
The characters are the main draw, it's a short manga so they are not super complex but there each character gets their time in the spotlight and contributes to the emotional lesson the manga is showcasing while still seeming mostly like realistic people (with varying degrees of exaggeration).
Art
The art is pretty good, the character designs are cute and distinctive with good backgrounds. The art also complements the emotional parts of the manga.
Overall: 7/10
A pretty good, emotional drama with a good lesson to learn, and something to say about familial trauma. I recommend this manga.

Trigger Warnings
Suicide, self-harm, bullying
TL:DR
A shockingly deep manhwa, covering so many topics along with a pretty cute romance. Endearing, believable characters round out a well-written plot. Highly recommend.
Story: 9/10
The plot is split into four parts, each mainly following a new set of characters but with the previous characters still playing important roles and having their own arcs. In this way, the cast can grow slowly, with the reader getting to know them in small batches.
The first half of the initial part is mostly a standard (but very good!) school rom-com manga, though we get hints that something deeper is under the surface. From there, it gets
...
more serious and I don't want to spoil it but it's a real tear jerker - though rest assured that there is plenty of cute romance and comedy sections too. The emotional moments feel earned rather than being cheap emotional manipulation and it really is just beautiful, that's the only word I can use to properly describe this manhwa.
The plot is so deftly woven so it feels natural to move to a new cast and situation while also keeping the importance of the previous characters, making it feel like they all matter and their struggles (past and current) are thematically relevant to the current situation. The author effortlessly gets the point of the manhwa across in a natural way without seeming preachy, grounding it in the characters and plot.
The manhwa touches on deep topics such as bullying and suicide and it manages to do so in a respectful, thoughtful way without romanticising it or stigmatising the victims. One of the best depictions of these topics I have seen. Another thing is that it tackles all the sides of bullying, from beginning to escalation, the difficulty of stopping it, and the process of recovery which is something that is rarely discussed. It depicts how other people can help those struggling while preserving the victims agency and not making them into damsels in distress to be rescued by a hero.
Characters: 10/10
As you'd expect from a series all about characters and their relationships, the character writing is top notch.
They're relatable and behave like actual teenagers, albeit ones with very dramatic lives - though not unbelievably so.
The characters are so endearing, with a diverse range of personalities that fit together so well. It really feels like these characters are friends and there interactions are so fun. The more dramatic events also reveal their deeper aspects in really interesting ways.
One thing I love is how so many characters are more important than they seem, with many background characters getting promoted to the main cast and playing an important role latter in the series.
Art
The art is fantastic. Has good character design, easy to tell them apart, expressive faces and body language and funny when it wants to be, serious when it has to be.
Overall: 10/10
Incredibly enjoyable manhwa that covers serious topics but never forgets that it's a romcom and has great characters. A fantastic manhwa that I recommend to everyone.

TL:DR
Overly indulgent wish-fulfilment manga with simplistic, one-note characters and a too-perfect protagonist. Entertaining enough if you want undemanding feel-good stuff but not very satisfying.
Story: 5/10
It's a bog-standard wish-fulfilment shoujo fare (yes, I know it's a manhwa), you can predict basically every beat of the story from the beginning. Practically the whole manwha is just fluff, Leslie finds a family of characters that fawn over her constantly with no personality of their own other than protecting and caring for her.
The first main conflict, the fight against Leslie's evil family, is simply boring. It's an effortless curb-stomp where the MC's adopted family wins handily. The second conflict
...
is slightly more interesting, with a villain that seems like they're more complex but they end up as one-note as the rest.
In fact, there is very little tension in the manhwa's conflict. This is one of those shoujo manga where the female MC is surrounded by hypercompetent men that do everything for her, though this one breaks the mould by having a hypercompetent woman too. Novelty counts for something I suppose but it doesn't make it anymore interesting when you know any conflict involving the protagonist can be, and usually is, resolved by someone else with little difficulty. Everything just feels so 'safe' in a way, the most powerful noble family is on Leslie's side, the emperor is on her side, the church paladins are on her side - it's like the whole world is constructed to fulfil the fantasy of this self-insert character where she's never actually in danger. She even has this shadow magic (that's hyped up but barely ever used) that she can use if she's alone. Actually it mostly just seems like a tentacle thing with the 'shadow' aspect not really being relevant except once but that just goes into the way the world building is non-existence and seems entirely driven by what's convenient for the plot.
One of the main problems is that the protagonist is never allowed to actually do anything herself despite being the protagonist. It's always one of her family members or her love interest. Even in the final arc of the manhwa, she get's one moment to do something important herself (with her boyfriends help of course…).
Characters: 4/10
The protagonist, Leslie, is a bland Mary Sue that's kind and strong and that somehow never does anything on her own. She's mostly just fodder to self-insert yourself into.
The rest of the characters aren't much better. The Salvator family (who adopts Leslie) aren't well developed as characters, they exist to protect and fawn over Leslie and do little else.
Conrad, the MC's love interest, is perfect boyfriend who is always rescuing Leslie and has little character besides that.
Essentially the whole cast revolves around Leslie and their relationship to her with no interiority of there own., and it makes it very difficult to care about any of them.
Art
I'm very sure this whole manwha is just an excuse to draw lots of really elaborate outfits, very good outfits mind. Leslie gets nearly a new fancy dress every chapter and the men get suits as well. The character designs, as you might expect, are pretty good.
Unfortunately, the artist uses a lot of 3d CGI art. This isn't necessarily a problem but once I noticed it (halfway through the manwha to be fair) I couldn't stop finding it everywhere. the CGI is mostly subtly in the background but there are some foreground elements that are very clearly 3d renders and it's distractingly different from the usually high quality art style. Fortunately, the actual characters are never rendered, even the background characters are drawn in.
Overall: 4/10
As I said, it feels too ‘safe’ and driven by wish-fulfilment than any actual attempt to tell a coherent narrative. It's a manhwa so it's not actually shoujo, but it sure feels like shoujo trash. I do not recommend this, even as junk food it's not that good.

TL:DR
Decent romance, likable characters and a surprising amount of action
Story: 7/10
First things first: this is not a weird fetish manga like I was expecting from the genderbending premise. Surprisingly there's also no fanservice. In fact, the genderbending premise is played very straight rather than as the butt of jokes. I think it's a quite interesting exploration of the meaning of masculinity/femininity and challenges conventional gender roles as you may expect given the premise. Nothing especially challenging or new for the modern western reader like myself, though I imagine it was very new for 1999s Japan.
One thing to get out of the way, the relationship between
...
the main couple starts of very antagonistically. I thought it was going to be a fantasy about being with a “bad boy” but that characterisation is quickly ditched and the main love interest becomes more likeable. The romance it self is well paced and develops naturally. There are no moments were it feels like there relationship is being forced forward by the author but instead they get to know each other better as they are involved in the events of the manga.
The way the friendship of the main group develops is good. They start off as perfect strangers and they slowly develop a bond. Initially there relationship all revolves around Megumi but after hanging out so much, the male cast develops a relationship between each other. It's a very realistic depiction as ultimately they had nothing to do with each other before Megumi arrived at their school and would be somewhat distrustful of each other initially.
There's a surprising amount of action. Really, it gets seriously intense. It made what could have been a fairly rote romance into a something a little more unique. There are some real stakes to these fights too. I wouldn't say I consider this an action manga but I actually wish that the fighting was toned down a little to focus more on the romance and characters.
Related to the above but I think that the manga may have gone on a little too long. There was definitely some stuff that could be cut out without hurting the rest of the manga but overall it doesn't overstay it's welcome.
Characters: 7/10
Initially the characters seem quite simple but the manga reveals that they each have hidden depths over time. I won't say they're amazingly complex or unique but they're memorable.
Megumi, the main character, gets the bulk of the character development and has a fun personality. Due to the whole genderbending thing, her arc is more complex than the other characters. I would say she's the best character in the cast. However she does have that typical violent reaction to everything syndrome that afflicts female love interests in manga. I wouldn't say she's a tsundere exactly, she's pretty friendly but it can be irritating.
The other members of the main cast can be pretty squarely fit into boxes: Genzo the punk, Hitomonji the knight (well, samurai - they are Japanese after all), Ichiro the normal guy, Miki the princess, Yasuda… we'll get to him. That's not to say they're boring or repetitive, they well written and each have their role within the main friend group. It creates a fun dynamic that makes for an enjoyable read.
Genzo starts off as the archetypal “bad boy” archetype but he quickly mellows out and becomes more likeable. I think he grows the most after Megumi and he is one of my second favourite characters.
Hitomonji is the least realistic character, I think it's unlikely that a teenager would actually behave like he does. However, that's not to say he's badly written, I think he's one of the stand outs in the male cast.
Ichiro leans more into cliches, he's the “average guy discovers his inner strength” type of character but I think his arc is well paced and he never changes more than is believable.
Miki is Megumi's foil and is a major character but I don't think she really does much by herself. I would have liked to learn more about her, as it is she's one of the least developed characters.
There is actually a recurring antagonist but he feels a little half baked. He has a believable motive but his actions seem wildly inappropriate to actually achieving his aims. He feels more like an excuse to raise the stakes rather than a character in his own right. His actions are nonsensicle and he's a black mark on an otherwise well written cast. However, the story arcs he initiates are enjoyable and bring out the best in the rest of the cast, even the minor characters so I wouldn't say he brings the manga down too much. The few other one-off villains aren't really worth talking about, they were fine, nothing too memorable but not bad.
The only character that stands out as particularly bad is Yasuda, he is the worst sort of character: the designated pervert. Yes he has his moments but pretty much everything he does in the manga can be boiled down to “look I'm a pervert, isn't this funny?”. It is not, it never is and it's really annoying. Genzo has this trait to a lesser extent but makes up for it with the rest of his character. Yasuda grows the least out of the cast. He's not really that important to the rest of the manga and he only gets two actual cool moments, both in the last arc of the manga but they don't really feel earned considering how he's depicted the rest of the time. It's like the author decided on his one joke and nearly forgot to give him character development so just rushed it at the end. At least he's easy to ignore as he's usually in the background and sometimes his antics were funny. He's irritating but at least tolerable.
There are a few other recurring characters but they have little screen time and aren't as important. I do like some of them though.
Art
The art is a real highlight. The artist combines expressive and attractive shoujo character designs with cool shounen-esque battle scenes. The manga manages cute and cool when it wants too, sometimes both at the same time.
Overall: 7/10
Cheeky Angel is a unique romance manga combining copious action with sweet romance and some comedy topped off with a strong cast to round it out. A thoroughly enjoyable manga. I liked most of the characters and the romance aspect is well done but it makes a few fumbles. Overall, it's not a masterpiece but it is certainly worth a read.

TL:DR
Cute, cozy story of a young witch girl growing up. Fun characters and good art with a little mystery to add some spice.
Story: 7/10
A sweet coming-of-age story of a little witch girl, who's world changes after meeting a talking wolf named Gwyn.
It's is wonderful to see Aria go from a shy recluse content to stay in her little world forever to her making friends with other charming characters, discovering the outside and finding a dream to work towards. Also lots of food and cooking. Such a cosy manga.
It's not an especially complex story but there is a little undercurrent of mystery in Gwyn's origin.
...
Character: 7/10
Aria is adorable, self-sufficient but also childish. She starts of shy and content with her lot in life but gradually opens up to others while she finds out what she wants in life. Gwyn is more mature and pushes Aria out of her comfort zone in a positive way while having some troubles of his own. Their relationship are the main focus but the other side characters are pretty endearing too.
Art
Adorable characters, a lot of visual comedy with reactions and such. Also has some very beautiful art of the Irish countryside.
Overall: 7/10
A very cozy manga full of cute fluff but with some emotion behind it. I recommend reading this when you want something light and uplifting.
