RaW Hero, Vol. 1

Product Information

Overall: 5/10. Its a work with alot of flaws, but at the very least it will stand out in your memory. Raw Hero (stylized as RaW HERO) is a Japanese manga series written and illustrated by Akira Hiramoto. It was serialized in Kodansha's Evening from September 2018 to August 2020, with its chapters collected in six tankōbon volumes. In North America, the manga is licensed for English release by Yen Press. Pour les fans de prison school, vous serez ravie de découvrir ce nouveau titre d’Akira Hiramoto, mais pour ceux qui le découvrent comme moi, cela peut être une belle mise en abyme du mangaka ! Ensuite, l’histoire m’a vraiment bien plu. C’était la première fois que je lisais ce mangaka et ce fut une belle découverte. Dès le début, j’y ai découvert une ambiance particulière qui se dégage de ce manga.

Final thoughts: Prison School's ending pissed people off because it was a manga they loved and the ending robbed them of a satisfying conclusion. While this ending was also rushed and unsatisfying (it may have been axed prematurely) I don't actually care enough about the story to be that upset by it. The plot is tight, the interactions between the characters are compelling and often hilarious, the women are gorgeous (half of the time, even our crossdressing protagonist), the series features lots of retarded crotch shots (even of our crossdressing protagonist), some dialogue bubbles come out of crotches. There is a character with a sex worker he is paying throughout all 5 volumes in various acts. This author ties off the wall stuff like that into comedy and his story. It reminds me of dark comedy like Jimmy Carr. The fact that this author goes so far is a part of the magic formula. weird. Sets itself up as kind of an X-Men superhero story, before becoming a crossdressing harem romance, with some chapters of pure sex comedy and some chapters of shonen fight scenes. I'm honestly not sure it even has a plot, given how seemingly random everything is. At the very least, the ending is extremely dissapointing, giving zero resolution to the romance, the superhero plots, and literally not mentioning what happened to a few of the major characters. The manga might be trying to make some kind of point that fixating on the larger plot is pointless and you should just have fun along the way, but it just comes off as disjointed and unsatisfying. I'd give it 4/10.

One day he's on a train heading to another interview, but he notices that some guy wearing a suit is fingering a young woman. The protagonist's sense of justice doesn't allow him to let this pass, and he chooses to miss his interview and instead confront the molester. It turns out that the guy and the young woman were engaging in consensual mutual perversion. However, the older guy is impressed by the protagonist's earnestness and sense of justice, and he reveals that he's one of the big shots at the intelligence department of the country. This shows promise. Chapters 1-3 were quite hilarious and riveting. Chapters 4-5, where more action takes place, was actually the lesser part of this volume for me.

I wasn’t a fan of the first few chapters, the artwork and funny characters are partially what kept me around. I found the manga to be a fun read, definitely made me laugh out loud a few times. The plot was decent, and there are a few minor plot holes, nothing detrimental. Raw Hero is written by the same mangaka that made Prison School. The artwork, line details, it’s all very well done. In my opinion it ties things together and makes this an enjoyable read. I also shamelessly enjoyed how the ecchi was incorporated, and all the “scenes”. The banana video was my favorite, it was freaking hilarious. Our guy is having a hard time: his life is becoming increasingly demented, and he needs to assert his strength and get taken seriously as a woman in the shady organization. Soon enough he finds himself crossdressing in public for no reason. He's losing the sense of his own identity, and at times he ceases to give a shit about anything.

Not to say too much on the story events, but there are people with super powers. Apparently, the gov’t is hiding a lot of information. There is a group set on trying to liberate that information, and our protagonist (in a misunderstanding) is hired to infiltrate an anti-gov’t group. The suit he is given to wear to an interview( by the man with the sex worker) is accidentally swapped with a fictional idol character that the sex worker was supposed to role play as. The protagonist has two younger brothers to support and is very pressured to make a lot of money, forcing him far outside his comfort zone. This version of Japan includes superpowered heroes as well as people that have undergone operations to become half-beast freaks. The older guy offers our protagonist a job as a spy: he'll have to infiltrate a small-time group of troublemakers who bother the government by spray painting, giving away leaflets and in general being annoying. For the most part, the government seems to want to make an example out of this group. However, its leader is a dangerous woman who goes by the stupid name of Jelly E. Fish.

Digital goods, open DVDs and Blu-rays, smart art prints, mystery bundles, and final sale items are excluded from the return policy. Art: Looks very similar to Prison School, which is to say really great. It emphasizes a sense of photorealism, which really highlights the clash between the insane events and the realistic visuals. Hiramoto also draws maybe the most fetishy manga women I've ever seen outside of Hentai, so if you enjoy that style you'll like this. 9/10
