Ratings and reviews

Definately a much more simplified Kairosoft game this time. Theres not a lot of interesting mechanics here and once you get to a good point publishing series it just seems very repetitive. Other Kairosoft games have done a much better job at keeping this repetitive loop going and this game just dosen't do it as well. On the other hand I do love manga so that definately helped in keeping me interested for a bit.

this game, even by kairosoft standards, is a bit grindy and repetitive. to that end, it emulates the actual mangaka experience perfectly! i love manga. i have always loved manga. often i have wanted to become a mangaka myself. this game scratches that itch very well. there's some small issues i have (chapter limits on series, minor UI issues, etc) but i can easily forgive them for the game they're in. a perfect combination of idle and involved gameplay. lots of numbers, but easy to digest.

Wanted to like this one, but it's easily one of their worst games. Grindy even by Kairosoft standards but with very little payoff. Absolutely nothing to do. Do not waste time and money leveling assistants, they are borderline worthless and get extremely expensive after a few training sessions. Prioritize warehouses, work speed, and placing/leveling furniture, then uninstall and play any other Kairosoft game (if you have Play Pass).
