Every volume of City I read now feels like a victory lap for one of the best comedy manga ever made ❤️

1.5 stars.

I remember this one made me laugh out loud more than any of the recent volumes but I genuinely can’t remember any of the chapters, and I finished it like 2 days ago. Not a very nutritious or memorable series but fun nonetheless. Meant to be pounded in one sitting at 2am, like a sleeve of Oreos, and instantly forgotten.

Perhaps one of my favorite scenes in the entire series so far has been Tatewaku's attempt to spruce himself up for a date. I was cracking up by the end of it!

As the series draws to a close for me, I can't help feeling a little sad. But, I have a snowy weekend ahead of me and the final four volumes to keep me company. It should be a good time.
