Description
Rakuichi was a better soccer player than anyone when he was in elementary school. But after 3 unsuccessful years in Italy, he returns home in defeat. Upon arrival he's confronted by a host of different characters; his cousin Biwako, who is now a teacher despite her uncontrollable personality; his childhood friend Inae who is cute and nice, but who turns into a crazed stalker when it comes to cool, attractive guys; Touzan who is cool, mysterious and seems to be good at everything; and Maiko, who is incredibly beautiful, but turns violent on the slightest whim. Great artwork, hilarious comedy and a unique style are the hallmarks of this manga.

| What?!? by yumemiru on May 14th, 2007, 10:13pm |

| This manga is SOOO good...I don't know if someoney3000 is reading the same manga or what, because this manga is one of the better random humor mangas! The art is cool and the storyline is amusing...what more could you want? Also, I think this manga is s'posed to be not "philosophical" because this story is all about humor and about making fun of stuff...*sighers* This manga is so much better than FLCL and those mangas, in my opinion(I list FLCL and those types of manga under the same genre as Sasameke) ^__^ |

| Interesting art... by someoney3000 on April 8th, 2007, 8:40pm |

If I have to be honest, then I believe that Sasameke is extremely shallow. At first it appeared to be a philosophical discussion on motivation, but inevitably it falls under simple and unenjoyable comedy. Fine. It would have been fine if it was just unenjoyable comedy. But then you come in contact with the characters, who are so absurdly "cool" or "awesome" that what resembles a plot disintegrates. The manga's plot degrades to showing off how cool other characters are and bashing the main character for being "emo." Niice. Some may enjoy this but for me, it's terrible. It is rather early to judge though. One volume is hardly a lot, so maybe there is still hope...?

| very good by Emperorpogi on October 26th, 2006, 7:33am |

i have never seen an art style like this, so i was very impressed. the story is great and characters are pretty solid. its just that the manga does something that most people want, its not easy to predict. as for i dont really like that, it ruins the "coolness" part in the manga. but very funny and good manga

| Unique in a good way. by 2H on October 8th, 2006, 5:19am |

I only read 1 volume, but it's pretty bad-ass. Most of the characters are cool too. Mostly the artwork draws me to this series.

| There is this scene when he kicks the soccer ball. Hard. Furiously. Awesomeness. That blonde bishoujo is kick *** too. Literally. This manga "kicks" some serious ***. |
