This is what tethysdust said this week:
Quote:
There were some pretty good ones this week. Uchuu Kyoudai looked like a very well-written story. I've read that it won the Shogakukan Manga Award. Kaze Yori Hayaku was less action-packed than one might expect from a kendo manga. So far, it seems like there is going to be a lot more focus on the characters and the story itself than on actual kendo fighting.
Here's a note from vyc:
Quote:
Great series this week once again.
Kaizou Ningen Rogii - android super humans fighting against each other. cant get any better than that. Sorta has that Trigun feel to it. Like a Bitch - sexy forbidden relationship between siblings. Katsuko Otsukae Shimasu - maid for a powerful man who goes on special missions related to the school. Sexy action scenes will keep you reading. My Pure Lady - definitely for the mature crowd. Lots of relationship and sex topics in this.
My opinion:
None of the series this week really interested me. Out of all of them,
Uchuu Kyoudai sounded the most interesting. Rarely do people ever get to follow their childhood dreams and get to do what they dreamed of doing when they were children...
