Monju is a sophisticated robot who used to be assigned in Tokyo. After the second generation of his type released, Monju is transferred to a small town. It makes him depressed, because he used to be an elite cop. He has no idea what to do here. The citizens are afraid of his look, kids bullying him and his partner is total jerk. Even so, that playboy partner, Junpei Yamagishi, tries many things to help Monju get along with the citizens. He lets Monju play the hero part rescuing those bullying boys and accompanying the elders on Tokyo trip. Monju’s presence is gradually accepted.
Everybody needs to feel that they’re useful. If not, they’d be depressed. I think I understand what Monju feel. I mean, all those tactical weapon of him could not be used in small town, right? He’s getting rotten. Ha ha ha
Despite of the robot typical theme, this manga is very human. You’ll love it!

Hagiwara Taku and Maki Teruya are just getting start. After 21 years thinking of nothing, now they have to admit reality: people have to work! Taku thinks everything would be smooth with Akane, his girl friend since high school. But, as years changing, Akane gets bored that Taku hasn’t decided the future yet choosing to blame it all to fate. Maki used to be artist but now she’s disappearing from showbiz and tries to have job in financial field. She’s chased by her agency every single day and keeping her as low profile as she can. Those two met on Maki’s film making years ago and now they team up again against the world of job seeking. It’s not easy. There are so many things to prepare before applying and some people just apply without getting answers. Yeah, that happens to those from 3rd quality students (those who go to lower grade universities), like Taku. However, Taku has to take revenge for all the ashamed he had for 21 years of his life…by getting a good job!
Well, the art is out of question and the theme is rare. The drawing is rough and it comes from someone with low confidence.

A bunch of student is curious to see Dragon’s beak. They say if you go there, all your wishes will be granted. Well, it’s not a normal island. There are monsters inside. That’s what Alice and Kai fight all along. Paul, Lulu and Ian ask Alice to show them the way to the island. Alice, the one who’s weak of the friendship offer, takes them pass the guard straight to island. But, there’s only terror that awaits them there. Lulu is missing and Paul is crush to dead by some kind of monster. Ian is the only survivor, left with a very big curiosity. Exactly what happen in the island?
It actually a good story, but the drawing is so rough. It shows that mangaka probably someone with stiff personality which is unable to act flexible. She’s afraid of making mistake and end up with bad drawing. I feel cheated since the cover is cute!

Satoshi is in trouble. He gave up college entrance test and his parents cut off his allowance. He thought he could get a job, but none hire him since he’s bad in customer service. One day, he’s brought by an old man named Yamaki to heaven. What???? It’s the name a book store. Yamaki leaves all the managing thing while he’s out on trip. Satoshi gets information from the cashier named Yui. This IS heaven, a parallel world tied to real world. When people die before they reach 100 years, they would spend their time there. And after that, their memory would be erased and they’d reborn as a child in real world.
It’s hard to believe, but Satoshi can’t go anywhere. So, he stays and even really work in the shop. He starts reading book for children and the number of his listeners keep increasing each day. Somehow, it makes him feel alive!
It’s a very sweet story. One should be given chance before we may condemn him. That’s what I learn from this manga.

Kirihara Misaki, the prodigy detective, has to deal with another victim of “the contractor”. It’s new species which derived from human being. It lose emotions and gained special power. Some can’t control the power, we call them “moratoria” and others lose completely in the power, “Dolls”. When they fight each other, normal human may have ultimate effect.
Kirisaki found that the stronger contractor, BK-201 is somehow connected with this case. He’s known as The Dark Reaper. What is he doing here in Tokyo? Can Kirisaki reveals the mystery behind?
Well, it’s kinda creepy, but not as creepy as Gantz, Abara or Domu. You might find it interesting.

Why do people get so attached in online world? They can create the ideal figure for themselves without afraid of being rejected. Yes, people who are afraid of that rejection take away their desire from real world to their own imagination.
Takashi Fujii (27) is a successful employee who graduate from elite university. Failure is out of question for him. Ever since he had the mac, he had been creating his own ideal woman by photo graphic tool. That perfect woman can meet his need without him being hurt.
But, one night, he took a snap on a woman who had the same figure with his design. It seems like the graphic becomes alive. Moreover, that woman is super aggresive. It’s confusing, yet amusing.
This is an adult love story, are you ready for the psychological impact? Please visit bog-rangzen-scanlations to download this manga. PS: Have you notice that I never put 18th rating on my review, that’s all because I assume people who came in are adult. I keep thinking that if I did, wouldn’t it be attracting more irresponsible people? ha ha ha. Just another reverse psychology!

Hyogo’s father lost in sea. it’s been 10 years and for all this time he managed to light the spirit his father taught him. That’s why Hyogo wants to save people. He’s now a civil servant who work for Sea Security department. Everyday, there are about 7 accident in the sea and those guys are the first secure team to solve the problem. Well, they’re just an ordinary savior if you compare them with Tokkyu. Tokkyu stands for Tokushukyuunantai (Special Rescue Team). It consists of elites from all over Japan whose speacialty in Sea Rescuing. Yeah, it’s the Sea SWAT.
Hyogo is very impressed after seeing the fast rescuing from Sanada Jin, the head of Tokkyu’s team. Now he’s aiming to get into the squad. Well, it’s going to be a tough battle…
I always love the rescuing story. It reminds me that people in manga work better than in real life. I don’t even know that there are characters like Hyogo in reality. I mean, civil servant in our country don’t work their ass betting their own life for others. That’s prejudice, yes. So, prove me wrong!
Because I do think that civil servant should be respected for their hard work just like in manga (talk about Tokkyu, Ministry of Finance, Kunimitsu or Fire Fighter Daigo).
