Review: GOGOGOGO-GO-GHOST!, Vol. 1

Review: GOGOGOGO-GO-GHOST!, Vol. 1

GOGOGOGO-GO-GHOST!, Vol. 1 by Miyako Hiruzuka, Two characters (one human and the other a ghost) smoking cigarettes and looking as if they have some bad plansWhat if you find out you have a guardian spirit? What if that opens routes to revenge? Then revenge it is! Muhahaha!

I saw this manga up on Comics Plus and just had to give it a shot. I love funny manga featuring ghosts + revenge!

👻 I felt for Asechi (at least a bit given that she was still in an affair) with her stomach ache and then dying. I would also be WTF if I would wake up and see my body lying there, and oh yes, some ghost just standing over me, haha. That sure was a fantastic way to start this book. Plus, I could definitely understand that she had zero ambition to get back in her body, I mean, with everything going on (some of it due to her own stupidity others not so much). I loved how she restarted thanks to the fuel/motivation of revenge.
👻 I loved seeing Asechi grow stronger and develop a thicker skin along with a more FUCK this attitude. It helps that she knows she has a guardian spirit who helps her out with revenge and other things.
👻 The revenges were so fab and I loved seeing Masako and Asechi start them. At times subtle, at other times Masako’s horror mode was terrifying the heck out of me. I felt for the girl next door, haha. As for the others? Not so much. I am curious what more revenges will be done. I mean, we still got several to go and I am sure that Asechi will find some more as the volumes go on. I am especially invested in Yuu-senpai getting his dues.
👻 I loved seeing Masako and Asechi together, share beers (just offer it to Masako) and cigarettes, chat, and have a great time. It was just so fun.
👻 Masako was such a fun character, though I am sorry, I thought they were a guy for most of the book. Maybe I was just too tired and missed out the hints, but everything just screamed gay guy ghost to me.  But still I loved Masako, and I hope that they are truly 100% a good spirit and not fucking around with Akechi. We do get some glimpses at times, for instance Masako has that horror mode. But then there are moments that she helps Asechi, like with the revenges, or when an accident almost happens. I hope we learn more as the story goes.
👻 I love how, when you are a ghost, you have that little triangle on your head. It is something you see at times in anime/manga, but not that often, so I like the detail.
👻 The cover and how it looks like a memorial photograph/frame that you would see in real life.
👻 The art style is really fun.

😒 People who know me know that I DON’T like cheating. And so yes, my view of our MC was a bit coloured learning that she had an affair with her senpai WHILE HE WAS MARRIED. Girl, fuck no.  That is just a big no no in my book.

All in all, I definitely am happy I tried out this volume and I will be reading more (by the time this review comes up I hope to have read volumes 2 and 3). I need to know if Asechi gets all her revenges done and what kind of fun she has with Masako.

Star rating, 4 stars
