Chocolat has gorgeous art, fun characters, and a random, nonsensical storyline. It's definitely a fun read, filled with jokes. But the humor sometimes shows up in places that make it hard to take the rest of what's happening. The plot also didn't make too much sense: elements from Ichigo's dark past kept being thrown in but not really resolved, and at one point it's mentioned that he's a brawling genius but then this thread abruptly ends. The character development also didn't seem genuine; for example, the part about Chiyoko and her father toward the end was very sudden. I feel like this manga was trying to betoo many things at once (comedy, romance, fighting) but ultimately never found a focus.
