if you don't want to read my entire review, here it is summarized: talentless nana is good, you all are just mean.

with everything i read, it's never about some god-like realization i get. it's always enjoyment factor, down to the core of it. talentless nana might not make you a believer, but you're going to love it or i'm going to take you out.

talentless nana, at its core, isn't really about world building. from what i've seen, it's a psychological type of manga, and gives focus on connections. i don't meant to be so vague, but read up until chapter 5 before you make a ... judgement. for one of my friends, she read an article from someone who put dissed the manga after two chapters just because of world building and unrealistic qualities. those holes do have a reason that is built up to later on, so it's about actually getting to the bottom of the iceberg. guess who really likes it now?

ultimately, there's so much to gush over. personally, i love the foreshadowing and subtle hints across the story that help you form an idea; and because for me and my friends, they turned out true, it only proves that the writing is good enough to give you an idea of what's going to happen. the manga doesn't rely heavily on shock factor, and there's a sense of satisfaction you get when your prediction clicks just right. there are twists, of course, unpredictable ones that just get you more into it.

also, the characters, or at least the main one, grows throughout the story. it's like watching your own child develop. very good, though i'll say no more. the art also improves just after a few chapters. and have i mentioned the enjoyment factor is killer?

Story: 7

I haven't read much manga in my past so in my opinion, this is a good start if you're starting out. I have found the story to be enjoyable because of a balance between loss and mystery within the series. However, the character still managed to get away scotfree no matter what the character does, so that throws me off a bit where she wasn't caught no matter what.

Art: 4

Not very consistent, but delivers the purpose. There are parts where they're so detailed they can't really be compared to the rest, especially comedic moments. Overall 4 in comparison to other manga I've read.

Character: 3

Here ... comes the bit where the character gets away scotfree no matter what the character does, whenever someone's killed, the detective just believes it. This part I detest the most. There are a lot of characters in this Manga that stand out and have a good righteous heart, but in the end, the MC kinda thwarted them. What's worse is that their backstory needs a lot of refinement.

Enjoyment: 7

Even though there are bad aspects within this manga, it still managed to make me sob up a little from a certain scene within the Manga. I wouldn't say this Manga is a complete failure filled with cliches and such but I've gotten my share of entertainment reading up the entirety up to chapter 40 so far.

Overall: 6

Well, combining the bad aspect and the enjoyment together, this manga deserves a 6 as it did touch my heart a little from a certain character, it emphasised loss to the MC (Even if that scene could be a little more developed), and there is just that typical sinister organization behind of all this. Obviously, this feels cliched and I can already predict what's going to happen. But overall, the story is still quite enjoyable, just lacking a bit of pain for the MC that didn't get in trouble whatsoever whenever the MC murders someone.

The story itself is interesting but poorly executed thanks to the severely unlikable characters. If they were unlikable in a realistic manner then this wouldn't be a problem, but they are as unrealistic as they are disgusting. There are very few characters that don't make you feel sick to the stomach but even they are poorly made showing some pretty severe inconsistencies already.

The art quality varies drastically having some s that are amazing and some that are total crap with clutter and overused 'emotional' expressions. On top of the layout being uninteresting the art style itself is one I personally don't enjoy.

Any enjoyment I ... had was instantly replaced by annoyance at the idiocy of the characters and by my own mind deconstructing the world and dismantling anything to the point that being up to date, I have accurately guessed the outcome of everything before it happened so far.

As I said, the story itself is interesting. Once you get a grasp of the characters and the way they take the story (after the first two chapters) it becomes incredibly dry.

The manga can redeem itself in the coming chapters but it has already drained me to the point that I can't continue reading it.
