Yakuza Lover #1
Jun 1, 2021 |
Yakuza Lover Vol. 1 is just okay. The art is serviceable and the sex scenes are among the best in the book, which is appropriate given the marketing. Nonetheless, there's little about the series that sets it apart from other titles. |

The series gets off to a good start, thanks largely to its nuanced protagonist and total commitment to the shojo aesthetic. |

Yuri Is My Job! Vol. 2 is an enjoyable book that greatly impresses in the beginning but then shoots itself in the foot towards the end. |

Another enjoyable installment in the series. Kanoko and Sumika get some great charactet development, and the manga's unique setting continues to be used to good effect. |

Zombies Assemble Vol. 2 is a ton of fun, and unique among Avengers stories. The artwork is especially great. |
