King in a Lab Coat

TL:DR Ignore the cover art, it is not edgy/grimdark in the least. Manga's not bad, but fairly generic. Decent comedy at least. It's a squarely middling Story: 5/10 It's passable, I could roughly predict nearly every story beat before it happened, and the one's I couldn't were kind of ass-pulls. Actually, that's something of a problem that compounds near the end of the manga. It kills any excitement when the manga is filled with plot devices never mentioned or hinted at before until it suits the author. I'll grant, the manga does manage to foreshadow one plot point and make it have actual consequences. Decent comedy, I found it enjoyable.It can be pretty funny at times Characters: 5/10 Like-able characters if not very complex. They don't really have arcs or develop in any way. They have some fun chemistry though Art Not bad, good character designs and there are some backgrounds in most panels. Faces can be a little simple sometimes but it's played for comedy Overall: 5/10 It's average. Might tickle your fancy if you like the kind of humour it has but other than that, I would not really recommend reading this.
