SERIES REVIEW:

If you liked Dramacon, you will love this series as well. This is also about conventions, with the main character being an up-and-coming doujinka (doujinshi artist/author). We get to go along with him on his journey as he teams up with other doujinka to both become better at his career and to save ComiPa.

I wish I had the last book - Vol.5 - but, I don't. I feel like that one probably has a climax for Kazuki vs. Eimi.

A bit less than the previous volume, mostly to do with the whole terrorist/bomb thing and how over the top and dumb that was. I totally forgot that this was a thing in this manga. :| Other than that we have some new doujinshi and some trouble. Plus I am loving to meet new characters + seeing older characters grow. Though I am still not sure if I like Taishi. :P

Younger me read this.

I still cannot completely follow the story because the characters are so indistinct. They are more caricatures than characters. Two down and three to go.
