    This was tough: 2 and 3 were very close to me: section headings, great text, and (although different) a tiny bit of humor that doesn't take over the actual review. #3 got its extra nudge from editing/SPAG (spelling and grammar). (#2 just needs a little, very little, tweaking there.)

    And #1 gets points for being honest about what they didn't like - not all reviews have to be positive.

    Thank you all for reviewing!

    The 3 entries are really interesting and different approach of review, which makes it more difficult to chose.

    The first is mainly focused on taking you to read the story with summary and honest impression... the feelings of the reader after the read are there

    The second is, I would say, more academic. It gives a good idea overall of what to expect with this manga. With notation, it helps getting an idea of the read.

    The 3rd one gives also an idea of what to expect (art-wise, plot-wise) of the manga, though without giving much about the story itself, more focused on the impression it leaves than what happens in the books themselves.

    I am voting for #1 because it is teasing me in reading this manga while telling me it is not so original

    #3:
    The review doesn't give too much of the story away but instead focuses on narration, side stories and the comparison to the novel that serves as foundation for the manga. So without having read the novel, it makes curious about the manga and the novel at the same time bacause I would want to know the differences.

    I really liked the comparison to Yonda Kou's Antique Bakery. As I haven't read any works by Mamahara Ellie yet, it gives me a good example of what I can expect from the art.

    The only counterpoint compared to reviews #1 and #2 is imho the grading system (x out of 10). I could only assume that the author of the review enjoyed reading the manga by the conclusion which stated that it was "nice". I'd prefer a grade because this gives me the impression of a standardised value whereas the conlcusion "nice" can be very different from person to person - thus allowing several interpretations (eg. nice and good or nice but not good).
