Summary Reviews of MegaTokyo

of MegaTokyo by Fred Gallagher

"Due to unforseen complications, I probably won't have time to review MegaTokyo at all, suffice to say that I find it a blindingly unfunny celebration of a dorky fandom with repetitive art and petty sarcasm in place of meaningful or funny dialogue. And l33tspeak."

"I only read the first 163 installments of MegaTokyo and gave up. Maybe it gets a lot better, but there are more promising things out there to read. These characters just weren't interesting to me. They had little depth, and I didn't get into the juvenile humor. The story was very slow and the tone jerked awkwardly between Largo's over-the-top slapstick (zombies, explosions and robot girls) and Piro's self-conscious meandering."

"Chapters 0, 1, and 2 were created during Largo's stay, and certain people loved it. Giant lizards, ninja, women that broke bones and shattered egos with ease, and other slapstick humor. The plots were only four-panels long, about as long as the average male's attention span. No offense, guys. There was much poking at the gaming, anime, and particularly the RPG genre, and there was much fun to be had."

"When the Rodney guy was around writing the story; it flourished. Period. It was just a great, exciting, funny comic to read. Then he left and the story basically became a bunch of typical anime chicks surrounding the main character."

"MT never stuck to me. The motivation was wishy-washy, the alternating l33tness and fawning/angst wore thin. The art is nice, but not enough. The way the artist portrays the females also feels a little.. creepy? Stalker-ish? It's hard to define, but it is there. When I read the comic, I feel like I'm 'in on it', and that turns me off."
