Pajama na Kanojo
This was made by the Dougashi Kaden mangaka, which really surprised me because it's very different. If Dogashi Kaden totally ripped Eyeshield 21, then Pajama na Kanojo is just another Ichigo 100% lol. You got a boy with two girls vying for love. The art is very nice though, the story on the other hand...is barely acceptable. The ghost part was interesting in the beginning, but it wears off as the chapters goes. It's like the author doesn't really use its gimmick at all. Instead we got a lot of useless fan service. Orz
First impression (Up to chapter 12): B- (It's okay...but I don't know who I can recommend this to, other than maybe if you are a fan of harem and fan service.)
Sensei no Bulge
Made by the mangaka of Oumagadouki Doubutsuen. They are very different though, which is good because I'm not a fan of OD. It's not like it's bad, just wasn't my cup of tea. Sensei no Bulge on the other hand is quite interesting. It's nothing mind blowing, but it does have pretty interesting set up. Basically, it's the prince and the piper Shonen Jump style.
First impression (Up to chapter 3): B+ (It shows plenty promise. The only thing hard to shallow is the art, but if you can by pass that, it should be fun to follow.)
Otoyomegatari
Made by mangaka of Emma. The art is extremely detailed, probably one of the most detailed manga I've read in a long time. The story tells a young bride married to a 12 years old. It's slice of life, so the plot goes at an extremely slow pace, but there are incredibly amount of details about their life, background and atmosphere. I think it's a very refreshing read. Although I've got to admit, I'd prefer if it has a faster pace and less slice of life. I suspect I'll enjoy this better reading as a book than reading it online.
First impression (Up to chapter 10): B+ (From what I've seen, I'm pretty certain the setting is Mongolia. So, if you are into slice of life, historical romance, then I highly recommend this. At least the art is pure eye candy!)
Haikyuu
Maybe I shouldn't even review this since I didn't even pass reading chapter two, but I'll chalk the reason why I didn't continue reading. The first reason is my hatred for Volleyball, so that alone kinda make me want to stop reading. The other is because this is like a poorer version of Diamond no Ace. If you really want to read a sport manga, go read that one instead.
First impression (Up to chapter 2): B
P.S: Claymore isn't ending LMAO! It's editor mistake. What a complete false alarm! XD;;; I doubt my previous rating would change though.
