review 1: Review of the first manga series 1-10:This manga is not terrible, let’s just say that. But it has a lot of problems.The art is beautiful and I think the art itself is where the author’s talent lies most heavily, not plotting. The plots of each volume…pretty laughable to even try to identify them with the idea of ‘plot.’ The situations are so see through you know well before anything goes down just how it all will end. Fan service is always appalling when it happens upon a page, though expected, but some of the scenes are too ridiculous and insulting to bear.One of the biggest things that turns me off when reading is how unfoundedly every female creature flocks at the main character. It’s stupid, unrealistic and makes the volumes hard to get through. Tsukune has... more his modesty, his kindness and his loyalty going for him, but the ladies don’t recognize those attributes and use them as a basis for their undying love for him. The love is just thrown in there to make him look like a big shot, a young boy acting as a damsel in distress, needing savior from the girls around him.I think what keeps me reading these books (despite having bought them all for really cheap and used) is the incorporation of different monsters and what possible ridiculous motives they might have. That, along with the arc of the Rosario and the tensions and connections it creates between Moka and Tsukune.In the end, I’m still going to read into the “second season” to see if it will get any better.First series : 2/5 stars
review 2: The first series ends with everything tied up at a solid plot point, giving that satisfied feeling that everything is how it should be. There's a bit more focus on Moka and her part in it all, which is a welcomed way to answer (or at least acknowledge) some of the questions that have been raised so far. All in all this tremendous series rounds out quite nicely in this volume and has left me wanting to get into the next. less
