Chari ni Norenai!, a manga about a school bicycle club where none of the can actually ride a bike. I didn’t think it was a bad manga by any means, but it wasn’t exactly good either. I’m writing this review on it since it has no mean score (yet) and there are no other reviews.

It’s a light-hearted slice of life manga, so there isn’t much there in of a plot, but each of the 8-or-so page long chapters contains a decent skit involving the club and their bikes. That being said, the overarching joke of the manga is just that the bike-club ... always fall and crash whenever they try to ride a bike, which is revealed to be the result of them all having a very poor sense of balance. This gets pretty repetitive after a while especially considering the sheer number of these skits that are crammed into only 5 volumes.

The art is probably the manga’s greatest strength. It’s certainly not taking any risks with the art style, but the s are laid out coherently and the drawing are crisp. However, the style is very generic and that led to it having problems where some of the characters look quite similar and can be difficult to differentiate. The bicycles are pretty detailed though.

The characters are quite weak in this manga. They all fall under different male-character stereotypes that can be found in many comedy anime and manga as they don’t offer anything particularly unique or refreshing. Because of this, the characters are all extremely forgettable. Even while I was reading it, I couldn’t their names because they were all far too generic and became immemorable.

It's very average in of enjoyment. It gives the impression of being a kind of placeholder manga that you might see a character reading within another manga due to its monotonous comedy and art.

If you want to see what a completely mediocre and unremarkable manga looks like, give Chari ni Norenai! a read.
