Asidwhen I read on the cover that this is "pride and prejudice but with dragons", I didn't know what to expect, but this was such a pleasent surprise.
Aside from all of the titles that became all jumbled up in the end, this was an enjoyable read. it was funny watching all of these dragons doing human things, like, writing letters, picking hats to wear, going to court, and even considering marriage proposals. all of these dragons are living the lives of victorian society, and the way the author adapted some of the things to fit dragon world is amazing. (forcing servant dragons to bind their wings so that they couldn't fly as please resembles the restrictions aristocratic humans put restrictions on their servants).
It felt like a mix of a lot of jane austen novels, with a dash of inspiration fromthe life of jane austen herself, and other novels from that same era, and i enjoyed it. it's only the second novel that I read where dragons are doing human things, and i think it's my new niche thing to look for in fantasy novels....more

We follow mainly two high-schoolars who meet a man doing magic tricks in an abandoned amusement park, challenging all their misconceptions about adulthood and doing what you're told to do instead of following your own dreams.
The characters design was beautiful but the backgrounds and everything else wasn't to my taste, and the ending felt abrupt, so there has to be some continuation or something. but I liked it and I can see how it'll get adapted into a show...more
I can't help draw the connection between this comic and Scott Pilgrim.

We have the lead singer in an indie band who fall in love at first sight with a girl and she has a somehow "evil boyfriend" and he has his own baggage as well. But add to that a dash of mythology as it seems inspired as well, especially in naming the characters, by the romantic medieval story of Tristan and Isolde.
It gets more into the struggles of making it as a band, as well as the relationships of the characters. (their ages were hazy to me, sometimes it seemed like they're highschoolars and other times it seemed like they're in college).
Also, the art style wasn't my thing, but I liked the touch of including a lot of songs titles in naming the chapters....more
I won't deny it. I teared up a bit with the end of this volume. I admit that the repition of the plot line got boring at times and sometimes it didn't I won't deny it. I teared up a bit with the end of this volume. I admit that the repition of the plot line got boring at times and sometimes it didn't even make sense, but I stayed for these characters, and by the end of the series, I felt their bond was something real and that love was so touching.
It also says something about the imagination of highschoolers. I mean, who knows what's the truth?...more

Joking aside, it's interesting to get more glimpses into their lives before the interaction between Yamada and Urara, which we belived was the start of everything, but is it really?
My problem is that it seems to be taking too long to hash out the same thing over and over again. (looking for witches, finding witches, losing memories, holding a ceremony, then rinse and repeat!)...more
