Danshi Toilet de Machiawase · review
Spoiler warning
This review may discuss plot details.
Similar to Asato Mizu's earlier doujin REC, Danchi Toilet de Machiawase follows a similar format of having a cover/premise that sounds lewd, disturbing and disgusting but ends up wholesome. However while REC takes thing in a major tear jerker direction, this bathroom based manga goes in a more lighthearted/comedic direction with a rather touching outcome. The premise is simple, a socially awkward girl spends her free time at school in an abandoned men's room at school. Her biggest fear is someone finding her there cause her "life would be over" if someone spotted her. Take a wild guess what happens next? At 6 chapters there reallyisn't much I can say that wouldn't just outright spoil things. Both characters are enjoyable and likable. The art direction leads to some rather funny visual puns. I don't think Asato Mizu's style is for everyone but I for one love her bait and switch style of comedy, along with her cute art style. If you're a fan of her more famous works like Denki Gai and Aharen-san I'd really recommend this for a quick read.
