Shades of Grey is a blog primarily about Manga (and occasionally anime) started by troper Shotgun Ninja (known on the blog as Yerocha). It features both discussions of new manga chapters and video reviews of whole series. What separates these reviews from many others is that they generally avoid both excess cynicism toward the series reviewed and the generalization of the target audience. Rather than strict pros and cons, the end of the reviews list off which groups of fans should and shouldn't be reading.
