I honestly never thought I'd make a post like this. I've been enjoying the wonderful world of anime for a very long time now, and I'm far past the point where every anime I watch becomes my favorite. But recently I experienced something very similar to what I did when I was younger, that is an anime series called "Candy Boy".
As you can see in this image here, it is indeed a Yuri/Shoujo-Ai series, but even if you have some sort of hate for the genre, I really do ask you put that hate aside for the time being and read this post.

Pokemon ReBurst Chapter 1-2 Review
Pokemon ReBurst, also known as "Pocket Monsters ReBurst" is a manga series that started...erm...in 2011. Sometime. In the Weekly Shounen Sunday. It is about a boy named Ryouga who is a 'Burst Warrior' along with his friends, fighting an evil organization called "Great Gavel" along with trying to find something called the "Arcades". No, he's not a trainer. That's right. He's a "Burst Warrior" What's that, you ask? Well, It's a Human who can become a Human-Pokemon hybrid. Crazy, right? Ridiculous? No, actually. It's not at all. I'll explain more about it a bit further on. Oh Yeah guys. Warning, Spoilers ahead.
The series also advertises itself as being more "serious" then other Pokemon media. I assume by that they mean the anime. It is indeed more serious, only based on what is scanlated so far. I'll explain why as I go on.

As we all know.. or at least I hope we all do, Skull Man is what inspired Kamen Rider. You can see the resemblance he shares with Kamen Rider 1 in appearance, well the helmet at least. Grasshopper, Skeleton. Yeah, they are similar. Well, anyway. I'm gonna level with you guys here. I don't get it. I heard when this manga was first released it "Instantly become popular and a huge success." Well, I have two problems with that. The first is, if it was so popular, why did it to unheard of until 1998, when Kazuhiko Shimamoto "remade" the manga and the second is, it's really not that good.
