review:
'Bakemonogatari, Vol. 1' by NisOisiN with art by Oh! Great is a manga about the monsters all around us and the weird ways they manifest.

This book had a somewhat confusing start, but it's basically about a guy named Koyomi Araragi trying to help a girl named Hitagi Senjougahara. Her problem is that she weighs hardly anything and her weight has been stolen by a monster crab. Koyomi has a strange friend that is good at helping, so he is taking Hitagi to him for help.

This story had some coherence problems. I like the idea of this, but things jumped around to other stories and things were not explained. I don't know why it's important that Koyomi is a virgin. I don't know why the class president storyline is even in this book.

What I did really like is the art. I really liked the style of art and the way panels were laid out. From an art and design standpoint, this was great.

I received a review copy of this manga from Vertical Comics, Kodansha Comics, and Netgalley in exchange for an honest review.
