Kenichi: The Mightiest Disciple Review

Mangas (japanese comics) have enthralled me for quite a while now,ever since i read Naruto
i have become a huge fan of mangas
Though i may not be an otaku i will try my best to give an honest review of Kenichi: the Mightiest Disciple
This manga follows the story of Shirahama Kenichi who is an average student and is labelled 'Weak legs' due to his cowardice. One day he gets into trouble with a member of his karate club and has to fight him or be killed!! He gets the help of a cute girl Fuurinji Miu who helps him find courage and train at a mysterious dojo called Ryozanpaku.
This manga has all the elements to make it a great read. It doesn't leave a great first impression though but the story keeps on getting better. The protagonist Shirahama's growth from 'Weak legs' to a courageous fighter is portrayed very efficiently, even though it has the same pitfalls of a shonen manga,the storyline and the characters keep you interested and of course ample fan service(hot chicks) has been provided so definitely no complaints :P
