I’ll Just Be Friends With My Ex-Husband

Is this dropped or something?

I typically don't write reviews, but this was truly AWFUL.  
Not the storyline, not the characters, but the art. If you read the first book, the art is different. Gradually, as you move from the second to the third, it changes and becomes increasingly annoying when the characters start to look different—like they're drawn in a completely new art style.  
Read the first through the third book, and then compare them to this one.  
My ratings are solely based on this manga and not the earlier ones featuring the same characters. But honestly, these mangas get progressively worse, and I couldn't bear to let this rubbish tarnish my impression of the first. The characters  
just don't look right anymore.

[Spoiler Review!]  

This manga serves as an extensive rehash of the first half of the previous installment, "Deep Love: Host," which ranks among the weakest entries in this series. There's already a review critiquing this manga purely on its art style, but I believe there are deeper issues at play here, consistent with the rest of the series.  

(For context, the scanlation for this manga halted at chapter 22, so my review will primarily focus on the content up to that point.)  

Story: 3/10  
The narrative revisits and expands upon the early chapters of the preceding manga, offering a closer look at Yoshiyuki's journey to becoming the manager of one of the top host clubs in the area. This installment places greater emphasis on Yoshiyuki's character growth rather than relying heavily on contrived tragic events. While it boasts the strongest story within the series thus far, that's not saying much given the overall shallow nature of the plot.  

Art: 4/10  
The art style feels lackluster and somewhat lazy, though I personally prefer it over the typical shoujo aesthetic. However, personal preference doesn't negate the fact that the quality is a step down from earlier installments (with the exception of similarly styled works like the Pao manga). Additionally, the characters appear noticeably different compared to their depictions in the original manga.  

Character: 3/10  
Yoshiyuki's character arc revolves around being a skilled host burdened by a troubled past—this singular trait defines him throughout the manga. The supporting cast features more visually distinct faces but remains lacking in depth, making it difficult to recall their names or significance.  

Enjoyment: 3/10  
Surprisingly, I found myself enjoying this manga more than others in the series. It provided a refreshing change of pace, particularly in how Yoshiyuki navigates challenges with competence and poise.  

Overall: 3/10  
To sum up, while this manga isn't good by any stretch, it surpasses its source material. Thankfully, the incomplete translation after 22 chapters spared us from what would likely have been an even more unsatisfying conclusion to the series.
