no spoilers probably
imagine a manga where you get so hooked you finish 500 chapters in no more than 2 weeks, this happened to me with usogui. the matches are fun,convoluted,complex and amazing, the art is phenomenal and the characters are interesting, what more could you ask for. i admit the start had pretty bad art and panelling and it took a little time for the plot to make sense but ignoring the minor flaws it has, overall its still safe to call this manga a masterpiece.
the plot follows our protagonist madarame baku trying to take control of the organization club kakerou by surpassing the leader, despite being a gambling manga it also has amazing fights where the art shines the most(especially with the facial expressions) and its great political drama too. the author manages to create psychological battles that are complex and entertaining, but it may be too complicating for some people. In conclusion, I think the story is simply outstanding and should not be judged without reading at least 100+ chapters

escape the abandoned building: 7/10
terrorist of the abandoned mine: 8/10

surpassing the leader: 10/10
as i mentioned before its phenomenal, this has one of the best art in manga ive seen and gets so much better, even thought the art style may get pretty silly with the flying hair and how badly the females in this manga are drawn, still pretty fucking great and reminder that this manga was weekly i cant imagine how much talent you need to get this godly shit done weekly



one of the best parts of the series, there are 2 protagonists one is a genius gambler, while the other one is a normal guy. What I like is that the readers get to see the normal protagonist become smarter and become a better gambler over time. The author succeeds in creating live and interesting characters. the side characters are so good that sometimes the MC dosent stand out among them, though the mc is probably one of the most well crafted genius ive seen.
raw kino goat manga need more people to read it, if you like complicated stories with alot of foreshadowing, interesting unique characters, hand to hand combat with evolving art definitely check it out
