Since this week brought no new mangas through my mail, I
will review two mangas I have read in the last two days, since they are fresh
in my memory.
First up, we have Beast Master.
This manga is penned by Kyousuke Motomi and is only two volumes long with two short stories in it.
The story is simple, Yuiko loves animals but they don’t feel
the same. Then she meets wild boy Leo, who may as well be a human animal. At
the site of blood, he loses control, but it seems Yuiko can apparently tame
that beast. This story seems to revolve around them and their relationship.
The art is really nice, expressive and quite enticing. I
love how the story makes me feel, to the extent that I basically read both
mangas in one sitting, which is quite uncommon for me these days. It’s simple
but deep and I wanted to see how they ended. The characters are really funny
yet can be serious when needed. I feel like I can relate to this story a lot,
especially when they talk about the beast inside everyone and it’s quite a
scary being, since I myself knows what it’s like when that beast gets loose.

Now, the other two stories called Fly and Cactus Summer
surprise are two really sweet stories.
Fly is about a girl named Yui with a dream of becoming a
pilot, but her parents expect her to become doctors. So, she believes if she
sees one more rainbow by months end, it might not be an impossible dream. Her
friend named Arata hopes to see her get her dream come true but does the
rainbow come before the end?
Apparently, the story didn’t do well but I think it was a beautiful story about going after your dreams and how a rainbow can lead you there. It’s short, simple and I teared up at the end of it because it was just a super sweet story. Fly is the end piece of volume 1.

The second one, Cactus summer surprise, is a bit longer and
is simply about the magic of a cactus which changes the lives and perspectives
of the characters in it, it’s also about saying what you truly feel before it’s
too late. It’s hard to give an overview of the story since it’s not that simple
but it’s an amazing read and I was glad to be able to read it. You can find
this story at the end of volume 2.
Now the second review is volume 1 of Black Clover.
I got this volume from lifeline for a dollar because I have
always seen people read and rave about how good the series is. So, out of curiousity
and being extremely cheap, I picked it up. At first, I was planning to put it
up for the giveaway after I gandered through it but changed my mind after
reading it.

It reminds me a lot of Naruto in a way.
The rival between the loser loudmouth and the genius silent guy, aiming to be the most powerful position in their worlds and facing things that is difficult but benefits the loser, such as gaining a powerful item or ability/creature but that’s the points I notice the most.

Now, Black Cover is about Asta wanting to become wizard king
despite not having any magical ability till he gains the five-clover grimoire
and it follows his story as he enters the Magic Knights to set himself on the
path to not only beat his rival Yuno but to become Wizard King.
I like the story and I find it really funny despite its
serious undertone and I really want to read more about it since it reminds me
of Naruto a bit. The art is pleasant, and I enjoy the details it presents in
the story. I am unsure on what else to add since this is only the beginning,
but I do enjoy all the characters I met so far, not so much the shifty ones or
the noble snobs that are proving to be as shallow as a puddle.
Sorry for the lack of mail and also for the lack of
procurement blog, since it’s been moved to the upcoming Thursday since the end
of month stats come first before an actual post, since I love seeing how much I
do or have planned within that month that rolls over to all the other months.
I look forward to writing more rambley reviews since I still have a large Naruto one to do and I am reading a few more that I have sitting next to me. The images should be giving hints on what they will be.
