Even though I buy manga pretty regularly, I haven't shared those purchases with you on my channel before. I have enjoyed watching manga hauls from others recently, so I thought I'd share a haul with you. I hope you enjoy seeing what I purchased in the month of October! Let me know if you'd like to continue seeing hauls from me in the future ^-^ Have you read or started collecting any of these series? Series Thoughts | Happy Marriage

Finished Series: My Thoughts on Corpse Party: Book of Shadows

Image
Corpse Party: Book of Shadows by Makoto Kedouin My rating: 3 of 5 stars I thought this was going to be a sequel to Corpse Party: Blood Covered, but that's not what this is. This is a story of alternate situations, I suppose you could say. Since this is based on a game, maybe this shows us what we'd see if we made different choices than in the previous series? I'm not sure, but it feels like that to me. This series is definitely more mature and is age rated as such. This does offer new scenes which made the read interesting, however I did feel myself skimming over story I had already read from the previous series. View all my reviews

Finished Series: My Thoughts on Corpse Party: Blood Covered, Vol. 5

Corpse Party: Blood Covered, Vol. 5 by Makoto Kedouin My rating: 3 of 5 stars This was an interesting story. I think this story would've worked better for me as a light novel as opposed to a manga though. Some of the scenes were very gruesome and I found myself glancing over panels instead of really looking at them. It was hard enough for me to re-read the first volume this year when I decided to finally read this series to completion as I had remembered clearly the demise of one of the characters. I had figured out one part of the mystery early on and that brought the suspense level down a bit for me. There was a bit of fan service that I didn't appreciate though I think it was supposed to help alleviate some of the depressing situations that were occurring. The end of this story included a tidbit that I didn't find necessary to the story of this group though I did appreciate catching up with them in the aftermath. I presume the very end leads into the sequel story, whi
