Wanted to like this one, but it's easily one of their worst games. Grindy even by Kairosoft standards but with very little payoff. Absolutely nothing to do. Do not waste time and money leveling assistants, they are borderline worthless and get extremely expensive after a few training sessions. Prioritize warehouses, work speed, and placing/leveling furniture, then uninstall and play any other Kairosoft game (if you have Play Pass).
this game, even by kairosoft standards, is a bit grindy and repetitive. to that end, it emulates the actual mangaka experience perfectly! i love manga. i have always loved manga. often i have wanted to become a mangaka myself. this game scratches that itch very well. there's some small issues i have (chapter limits on series, minor UI issues, etc) but i can easily forgive them for the game they're in. a perfect combination of idle and involved gameplay. lots of numbers, but easy to digest.
