Reviews for Goddess of the Glass

Wow. Quite the borderline H manga we have here. We want sex, sex , and more sex when reading hentai manga. So what do I think of this manga here? Well its borderline H, so that puts a few limitations on our boners, but I also think this manga is actually kinda heart warming. The story centers around the male protagonist, Sakura Keita. As far as academics go, he isnt the natural dumbass that most manga have their protagonist to be. Hes a science major, and he is actually serious about his work. So when one day, his report goes flying out the window, hefreaks out until a hot girl manages to pick it up for him. Does it end there? No. Now he wants to return the favor. They both like each other, but due to certain circumstances, he is with some other girl now.

The story is basically him thinking " I want the other girl, but what do I feel about my girlfriend? I dont want to hurt her feelings, but I still like the other girl. Maybe I should forget about her. But then again, maybe not." It is an internal struggle for him to choose his lifelong partner. With lots of sex as verification to make him feel better.

The art is GREAT in my opinion. As if drawing hot chicks arent enough, we get to see them in action! That boosts up my art rating. 10/10

Sakura Keita is VERY indecisive. All the way up to the point where people will just get pissed off at him. Not even sympathize with him; the reader will get pissed off at him. Now does that mean I got pissed off at him? No. I felt bad for the guy. As if choosing his soul mate wasnt enough, there was some unknown force outside his world mocking him. That depressed me. Everyone else is fine; they do their part correctly. The problem lies with the man himself.

Did I enjoy this manga? Absolutely. Am I a pervert? I am very healthy. Do I recommend this manga to anyone? Anyone over the age of 15 is welcome to read.

STORY: 6.5/10 I'm not quite sure how I feel about this area of the manga. Let's see... the premise of the story takes place in a college setting, meaning more mature characters, experiences and interactions. Fine by me, I'm a fan of that anyway. The story revolves around our male lead, how he has a chance encounter with a female student which eventually leads to him spending the night with her. Not long after (read: next chapter) he re(?)encounters another female student and decides to spend the night with her as well. But wait, there's more! Female student A and B are actually good friends! Lookinglike School Days huh? To wrap it up, basically the majority of the story is spent on the male protagonist being indecisive and reflecting on his true feelings for student A while dating student B. I did appreciate the fact that there was an solid ending where he comes to terms with himself and chooses a girl. They deserve that much at least.

ART: 7/10

Our characters were drawn to a pretty realistic scale and it definitely meshed well with the overall atmosphere of the story. The male protagonist is drawn a very typical young adult/college student and the pair of female leads were attractive and very easy on the eyes. Of course, being an ero-manga there were PLENTY and I mean a plethora amount of sex scenes (semi-censored) and money shots for the readers to enjoy, so it did deliver on that end. As far as the sex scenes go there were standard-fare but I will admit they did have some passion behind them, especially towards the end as the story developed.

CHARACTERS: 6/10

Our male protagonist Sakura Keita in a nutshell? Defenseless, indecisive, borderline pathetic MC #83799. Despite having some moments here and there where he shows a bit of affirmation, he still falls back into being the typical guy who gets swept along by the plot and every female he comes in contact with. Just the type of character I hate watching. The female leads aren't extremely praise worthy either. Without spoiling too much, one of the female harbors feelings for Keita but she tries her best to put them aside because he is already in a relationship and wants to maintain a proper friendship between the the group. The other female lead has a debatable character assessment. In short, she comes off as nothing but a lustful creature and I believe in all, if not most of the scenes she appears in leads to sex with Keita (the MC). Despite that I could not get myself to dislike her. She does whatever she can to make him happy and I'd be lying if I didn't feel an ounce of sympathy for her as the story progressed. I will give them this much though, the characters behaved rationally and to some degree, realistically.

ENJOYMENT/OVERALL: 7/10

Despite my obvious flak with the male protagonist Keita, the overall story was still enjoyable from start to finish. Putting aside the fact that it's a ero-manga and it might sound like I'm letting that aspect cloud my judgement, rest assured that is far from the case. As I mentioned earlier, the presence of an absolute ending is very appreciable. If you're able to enjoy what this manga has to offer without stopping every chapter to get yourself off, then surely you will come to appreciate the effort the mangaka put into this work.
