Gabriel Dropout, Vol. 1 (GABRIEL DROPOUT GN)

Though the idea of a perfect student turning into an otaku is hardly a unique idea this manga has enough amusement to keep it fresh a bit longer. All of the characters are fairly interesting and the angel / demon premise does make it different enough from other slice of life manga to keep you getting bored. Definitely worth reading so far - hopefully it will keep it up.

I have read quite a few comedy manga and normally even the one that weren't as good where ok. This was not ok. I thought the idea sounded pretty good but the execution was just bad. The art was cute nothing to complain about there, but the actual story and jokes where just to cliche and not funny. I think that that geeky character (in this case the main character Gabriel) can sometimes work but only when done well. I felt as though this was like a bad excuse for an otaku character. There are so many better more funny comedy manga out there. Go buy those.

I thought this sounded quite fun, and like something a bit different from the usual manga about angels and so on! Gabriel was top of the class up in Heaven, Valedictorian and everything, but when she descends to Earth to help all of us out...things go downhill.Congrats fellow humans, we corrupted an angel with MMO games and junk food! And possibly anime by the look of the suspiciously One Piece-ish DVD case in one frame! Gabriel has become lazy and super snarky. It's brilliant.The art and characters are really cute, I'm not going to lie and the volume had me chuckling from the beginning! Gabriel's language is freaking hilarious, she's down with the kids, shall we say! Along with Gabriel we have a couple of other characters. Vigne who provides us with the awkward moment when the devil is better behaved than the angel! I actually really like her and it'll be fun to see more of her!Satanya was freaking hilarious with her "acts of evil" she might even be my favourite character. I just loved her, and couldn't help but cackle along with her!Gabriel Dropout is an amusing slice of life that'll have you cackling as much as Satanya! The characters are fun and intriguing...as well as super memorable! The series should be interesting going forward, I'm intrigued to see what'll happen to Gabriel and if she'll pull herself together or not!
