 Hey everybody, welcome back to the channel Geo here and today we're going to be talking about Shake-O. I think I said that right. Shake-O, or Shaco. Shaco's manga Nersitomi's monster infirmary Volume 1. This came out a while ago. I know if you're watching this channel for the first time You're thinking man, this guy reviewing something that came out ages ago But I got this last year. Thanks to my friend Nelson for gifting me his copy, and I was really excited. One, I like weird cookie stories and two, I love manga. So when you mix the two of them together you get Geo here reading monster monster infirmary volume one. So what the heck is this manga about? First and foremost, you need to know something This is in an alternate reality where The earth is populated by monster creatures, monster girls, monster dudes, monster people, you know There are invisible people. There are Cyclop ladies. There are vampires Very talking beasts. I don't know. There's a lot of weird random Funny-ass people in this manga and we follow this high school and the school nurse Hitomi and she is a wholesome sweetheart who is a klutz and Yeah, can you see her problem right there? Can you see it? Her huge eye right there. She's a Cyclops. What attracted me to this story is the fact that Hitomi She is more than happy to help you with whatever it is whatever problem you need, whether it be a physical problem or a psychological one and Throughout the first volume she gets different people, most of them girls With different sorts of problems with Monster abilities like you have a character that keeps growing. She's a giant Girl and then her best friend keeps shrinking so she's super tiny and there's a whole dilemma with that and they have to deal With some issues. There's another character that has like a serpent tongue and it's super long And she's freaking out because she can't control it. So Hitomi is giving her advice and in this craziness of Monster infirmary What we really get is a story about a school nurse doing her utmost best to cheer motivate and make these kids realize that they're special regardless of deformities regardless of their situation they are special and she is validating who these characters are and Bringing a positiveness to their lives, which I really like I I Came in for the wackiness and stayed for the wholesomeness. Let's just say that much. Yeah, the story is a little bit cuckoo and there is some Etchy type humor that doesn't necessarily stick the landing a hundred percent of the time maybe like 80 to 90 percent of the time and Yeah, there is some fan-servicing bits, but it's mostly played for comedy and not necessarily in a creepy manner but the interaction between the characters is very sweet and Sincere through the randomness that Shaco is doing with the story. There is a sincerity to Having a profession like being a nurse and helping out others because that is one of the best acts that another human being can do So to have that in the context of monster people because You know school puberty kids going through changes What a perfect metaphor then to represent them as monster creatures like you have The tongue you can see them here at the back some of the characters right there. There's an undead girl There's another one. That's like I said earlier tiny There's another one. That's invisible and they all have unique problems That the school nurse he told me can help them with so I thought that was really cool and Offered a fresh twist on the whole monster creature monster person Trope, I don't know it's it's weird, but I'd like it the art For the most part the art is very simple, but it's nice to look at the designs for the characters are Unique where new student comes in and you can easily identify that person and not be confused with the hundreds of other students There are in the school obviously the main focal point and there are a lot of I puns in this manga is He told me herself and the way that she deals with Her students with my students, you know, you know what I mean the school patients Yeah And I just noticed hopefully I don't get flagged for indecency, but that is as Risky as it's going to get but it's played for comedy and it's not played in a pervy sort of way There aren't a lot of backgrounds because it's a school for the most part, you know, it's an infirmary and What little backgrounds like yeah, I see a lot of white spaces but the character designs make up for it in my opinion and There is some actual funny humor. There's a bit there was a joke with her going to Getting new eyeglasses or an eyeglass, I should say and then going to the movie theater and not being able to see a 3d movie because you need both lenses. So I thought that was pretty cool. I liked that sort of humor pretty Slapstick tongue-in-cheek. So yeah, the story is nothing too complicated, but it's just the right amount of Whackiness and wholesomeness where it balances itself out at least in my Enjoyment and I I like it. It's an ongoing series. I don't think it's over yet And I think I would have to get a whole bunch of volumes from seven seas, but I mean, I like it Shaco You did a cool thing. I dig it Monster girls we're here to help this is rated older teens 16 and up and I get it. Yeah, there's some There's some ecchi humor that might not fly with some people but for the most part, you know, just take it comedic route You'll be fine. There's nothing Too risque about this. Also, what the hell they gave her a 90s comic book waste like The image era in comics. Okay. It really liked to end things on a weird note. I liked the Can I show this? Yeah, I can I liked the Undead girl I thought that bit was pretty funny how she can Disassemble herself basically and you know, she gets stitched up again because she's basically a zombie So this is a type of humor slice of life comedy thing that you would be interested in I think you're gonna have a fun time with a nursing Tommy's monster infirmary. This is volume one Hopefully down the line. I'm able to get more volumes and do like a proper review on the series but for a first impressions I Why not I liked it sue me Have you read this manga?
