So I'm doing a new thing here on the ol' blog and I call it "Manga Pilot". As of late, I've been reading a lot of manga here and there and I decided it'd make for decent content here to review a few of the ones I've been reading. Now I call this manga pilot because for the most part I've been mostly interested in volume ones of series and I'm piloting them to see if I like them enough to maybe either continue with the series or check out the anime. Either way, today I'm offering up an interesting one and on this first installment of "Manga Pilot" we're taking a look at "World's End Harem". While Hulu's "Y: The Last Man" (and I hear the graphic novels are quite good, I haven't read'em) struggled with the incoherence of including trans people in a virus that only kills men, "World's End Harem" gets right to the core of the main issue, avoiding extinction and needing men to procreate. Let's not mince words here, yes, "World's End Harem" is an ecchi title and yes, it does appeal to a common male fantasy, BUT and that's a HUGE but, the actual nature of the issue cannot be avoided and stands up logically with the plot. I'll explain after the break.
