Akame ga Kiru

This is it. You absolutely cannot miss out on this manga!! A rare treasure that i’ve finally unearthed!!!!!!

So I was feeling bored and unloved, and hence set off on a quest to find a beautiful shoujo that would make my heart thump and my cheeks redden (no, that never happens. I only get shivers when a manga becomes too good for me xD). And obviously while searching for the romance/shoujo/comedy genres I scrolled through every page and realized, “WTH.

Holyland

Holyland is a manga that’s shounen to the core, complete with the young hero Yuu who has an amazing spirit and tough resolution, with a storyline full of mixed martial arts and action.

And to stay in a world full of thugs and violence, of course he had to fight. This is definitely a manga worth reading, and it’s so inspirational too!

Shounen heroes like Yuu always seem to never back down, and despite any weak moments, they always have the fierce determination and iron will that will help them achieve anything, despite all odds. And of course, friends and comrades who add in a little too much of a bromance element will always support him ;) Continue reading
