Manga Review: Mugen Dokei


Name: Mugen Dokei
Author & Artist: Saitou Ken
Chapters: 1 - finished
Genres: Drama, Fantasy, One Shot, Romance, Shoujo, Tragedy,
Plot:
In a world where time consists of two kinds of clocks, the Clock of Eternity, which indicates the life span of the universe, and the Silver Clock, which indicates the life span of a person, lived Mu, a carefree girl who despises the contradiction between eternity and the Clocks. Then she meets a boy who’s Silver Clock runs faster than any other person she’s met…

Review:
Let me start off by saying this has got to be one of the best one shots I've ever read. I've read this awhile ago and I've been itching to do this review for awhile now. It's so well put together and the subtle foreshadowing is utilised well.

The whole premise is living in a world where you life span is dictated by your watch. Eerie  and tragic but definitely intriguing and romantic.
I can't say much without spoiling it but if you love everlasting love, character development along with tsunderes then go ahead and read it.

Manga Review: Akuma De Koibito Part 3

Name: Akuma De Koibito
Author & Artist: Nakamura Yukichi
Status: Completed
Chapters: 5
Genres: Comedy, Romance, School Life, Shoujo

Plot: 
Story 3: Because, It's Love
Jun has always had a mature and cold face, but she gets easily scared and cries when she's alone. The seniors are graduating and they don't have to go to school until their graduation. While Jun is cleaning the mops, a guy next to her accidentally splashes water all over himself. She hands him her handkerchief. This handkerchief is very important to her because a guy gave it to her while she was crying but she never saw his face. Before she knows it, the guy's friends drag him away with the handkerchief.

Review:
 Again this story is mediocre and it's cute but nothing particularly great. The female lead fit into the cliche of a tsundere who is really shy and emotional at heart. The main guy is just your happy-go-lucky type of guy who is older then he looks. Recommended read if you're looking for a cute romance.
