Bakuman., Volume 1 by Takeshi Obata, Tsugumi Ohba
4.0
I was reluctant to read this since I'm a relative newbie with manga. I thought it would be full of insider stuff and I would feel left out. That was not the case. For anyone who has creative ambitions or enjoys goofy coming-of-age fun with a twist of romance, this book is for you.
I definitely had a record-scratch moment with a discussion of women. Then I remembered, they are writing from the perspective of middle school boys who are, without exception, stupid. The bigger women's issue here was the failure of the bechdel test. This was true in Death Note although neither series has many female characters to begin with so they are usually only introduced as romantic interests.
