I just couldn't get through this manga. It felt very repetitive in the beginning to me, so I quickly lost interest.

Overall, Dreamin' Sun seems like it will be a cute shoujo manga series. Nothing too extraordinary. Just a fun, light read.

The Fox & Little Tanuki is a new manga. Volume 1 is cute, and has very cute illustrations. The cover makes it look like it's maybe for younger children, but the story is a little deeper. Overall, I'm expecting that it will be a cute manga with some violent animal interactions, and some emotionally cruel characters at times.

A good very underrated action film. Has some good martial arts fights and SFX! You might like this if you enjoy manga films as well.
  
Even though this book is written and illustrated in a manga type format, it still gives some great travel tips and points out places of interest.

Shojo manga about high school students set on not being the first to confess their feelings for the other. Parts were cute, other parts felt repetitive.

I was provided with a complimentary copy of this book so I could give an honest review.

I have never been a big fan of Jane Austen or Manga books. However, combining the two made for an interesting and fun read. Manga Classics: Sense and Sensibility (Stacy King (Story Adaptation), Po Tse (Art by), Jane Austen (Original Story)) is part of the Manga Classics series. According to Goodreads, as of 6/13/2019, most of the 15 novels in the series have been adapted by Stacy King with artwork from Po Tse.

I attempted to read Sense and Sensibility several times but, I stop, put it down, and give up. I understand the time period in which it was written so it is not because of the way women behave or how they are treated that I have not finished.

Reading the Manga Classics version I found Austen's well-known classic easier to read and, for the first time, was able to finish reading the story.

I gave 5 stars to Manga Classics: Sense and Sensibility not for Austen's work. It is because of the superb way Stacy King was able to adapt the story into a Manga novel without losing the original story.

I feel this series would be a fun way to introduce Classics to "non-readers".
