review:
'Weeaboo' by with story and art by Alissa M. Sallah is a graphic novel about three friends in their senior year of high school trying to find their way.

Maya, James and Dan are friends and they all have difficulties in their lives. For Maya, it's being called a weeaboo, or a kind of poser to Japanese culture. When Maya proposes they all go to an anime convention in cosplay, it seems like a simple thing but sets off things in each characters life.

The story grew on me as it went, but I had a hard time getting in to it, and I think that was because of the art choices. I did like the mix of styles and mediums, but the main style was weirdly harsh in nature.

I received a review copy of this graphic novel from Oni Press and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you for allowing me to review this graphic novel.
