Sentence Summary: Ehwa is a young girl who lives with her widowed mother. Ehwa learns and grows each day as she is exposed to the different aspects of life and becoming a young woman.
Speaking Straightly: I can see why this manhwa is raved about. However, it's not my style. The manhwa focuses heavily on her and her mother dealing with romance. I personally found it too slow-moving for my liking. This is more for people who enjoys a very realistic story on a day-to-day basis.

Sentence Summary: When Japan's economy is at its worse, the citizens are losing hope while the rich of the rich are reaping the benefits from the country. A mysterious masked man by the name of Akumetsu is out to rid the evil of Japan in the name of justice.
Speaking Straightly: This is a more violent type of manga where it's villain against villain (depending on how you view Akumetsu). It's similar to Death Note where the protagonist has a certain way of viewing justice and doesn't mind getting rid of those they believe shouldn't be alive. However, the difference between Light and Akumetsu is that Akumetsu doesn't mind going out and getting his own hands dirty rather than doing it behind magic or whatnot.
Many shonen fans will love this series.

Not sure either of these are for me. I'm not big on the art on either cover.
Akumetsu's art is shonen like, but I like it. :) I don't think it's for everyone because I remember I tried the first chapter a couple of years back and I stopped. But going back at it now, it's interesting.
