This is what tethysdust said this week:
Quote:
Hana no Zubora Meshi was kind of cute, but also a somewhat sad, lonely story. Ryuu no Gakkou wa Yama no Ue might be considered magical realism, but the stories are definitely fantasy.
Here's what DrCoke had to say:

PROzess is right why bring series that you even don't like. Even if you don't like anything from this or other bunch guys, try to say what was best from it or what have potential or even what was really bad. I really like this shout outs and I'm tracking it for 2 years now but it's irritating when you see a manga you like or mangas that looks fun, you rewind to read what you think about it and... you say nothing even on the others manga. One or two sentences wouldn't hurt to write. I know that you have better things to do but if it's kind of problem than do it monthly and give it your all or something.
Either way I really like this shout outs sooo thanks for making them.

Seriously!?
and the Unknown kinda give me a Hungry JOKER feeling :D
For this week, on the other manga I didn't mention: Hitori de Ikirumon seemed kind of like newspaper comics to me, where there's lots of characters and the 4-panel stories repeat the same kind of themed jokes. The separate characters' stories might build up to something eventually, though. Unknown was a pretty interesting idea for a superpower, and I liked the teamwork aspect.
I'm pleased with what you wrote about Hana no Zubora Meshi, I'm really looking to reading this, it looks like a cute story. Let's hope it'll get scanlated.
Avant-garde Yumeko on the other hand... one word - JAPAN. I'll look into raws for material purpose...
I'll admit that I have been lazy in stating my opinion on these manga. I'm thinking I need to bring some more opinionated views on these mangas and push what I believe to be the best out of the mangas I have summarized for this week. I'll work on this from here on.
That said, Avant-Garde Yumeko was pretty funny. I felt terribly sorry for the boy basically being sexually tortured via paint brush. lol
