Plot Summary: Suzuki has a desperate crush on Tani, a boy in her class, but she has no idea how to approach him. The two are on opposite ends of the class social hierarchy: she's loud and bubbly with lots of friends, and he keeps to himself, barely responding when she talks to him. But when she finally gets over her fears and admits her crush, it turns out that things aren't so hopeless after all.

(The presence of RP...

My Hero Academia: Vigilantes Manga Series Review

Dec 13, 12:00

4 comments

manga

Vigilantes breaks the spin-off mold by shattering expectations, at times rivaling or even exceeding its progenitor manga. ― Spin-offs often come with the expectation that they're mere money-grabs, cynical exercises in milking popular franchises. Plenty of popular shonen manga receive short-lived spin-offs, most often comedic or episodic in nature, and they're rarely essential reads, even for die-hard...

The story does a lot with setting up expectations, flipping them on their heads, but then making the reason for why they were flipped on its head different than what you would originally expect. ― One thing that caught me off guard about You and I are Polar Opposites was just how quickly our main couple got together.
