Elf Tensei kara no Cheat Kenkokuki

I FRIKKEN HATE SHOUNEN!!! Anyone who reads any of my reviews sees me say this over and over and over. They also see the reasons why I hate shounen. It's mostly because you read one, you've read them all, because they're all copycats of one another, lacking any originality (some do have 1 original idea throughout the whole story, but that's few and far between), and they all use the same old, worn out cliches over and over and over and over and over.... AH!!! Nauseating!!! Also, they are generally on the elementary, and sometimes, middle school reading levels. Okay, so if I FRIKKEN HATE SHOUNEN somuch, then WHY did I give this one 5 stars? EASY: 1. It doesn't read on an elementary, or even middle school level - a college student would easily enjoy this without feeling like he's losing brain cells. 2. It is NOT full of old, overused cliches that make you want to bang your head against a cinder block wall. 3. It's full of original material, and not a copy from using the shounen handbook. Yes, there are some s*upid things that makes you want to pull your hair out, but hey, what story doesn't? At least in this one, IT'S SOMETHING NEW AND DIFFERENT! 4. VERY enjoyable story. I love the story idea and progress. So far, even though a SoL, it never stalls (I know, really too early to judge that, but hey, I've seen some stall as early as in the middle of the first volume). So, although it's a shounen, I highly recommend. EDIT: I've been asked why I read shounen if I hate it so much. Simple, for finding the very very VERY rare, golden gems like this one.
