Synopsis

One would think that the ability to read minds would be incredible, but for Ayako Nakano, it is an involuntary power she wishes she never had. Being exposed to the harsh thoughts of others is one thing, but knowing what people want of her has made it difficult to act on her free will. Having quickly learned that revealing her power would alienate her from her peers, she keeps her abilities a secret, deciding that it is better to stay isolated and keep them hidden. Gloomy and friendless as a result of her power, Nakano is set to begin her final year of high school alone, as always.

This changes when she meets Hayato Toda. Though virtually expressionless, Toda is a popular student, and Nakano is puzzled to discover that he has an intense crush on her. Yet, his thoughts reveal something more: he has lewd, perverted fantasies of her nearly every minute of the day, which Nakano now has to suffer through on a daily basis. Even so, Nakano soon finds herself becoming a part of his group of friends, thrusting her into her very first foray into friendship and romance.

I found this Manga to be a really fun balance of both ecchi and really cute images which made this manga funny and interesting.

The art was nothing new, but that is to be expected of a manga that originally just a one-off gag comedy. But it does what it needs to do in the end and although that means it doesn't do anything amazing it at least did what it was supposed to.

The character development was extremely good with some characters doing complete personality flips in the space of just a few pages, but were still natural feeling and not completely forced. The characters also ...

Mixed Feelings

Pretty interesting to begin with but develops a serious issue that lasts for way too long. The protagonist struggles over confessing to her love interest which is a pretty standard romance manga plot. The problem is that the gimmick of this manga is that the MC can read minds and thus knows her love interest loves her back. This results in hundreds of pages of agonizing over what people's reactions might be despite knowing exactly what their reactions are. This is extremely painful to read. If the manga had resolved this about 500 chapters earlier it'd probably be an 8 but having to read characters ...

Due to how I want this review to affect the people who will read it, I will try my very best to avoid spoilers - even though it seems like that wouldn't matter.

Basically, two things:

1. I highly recommend you - the reader of this review - to absolutely avoid reading this manga.

2. This manga is quite possibly the biggest disappointment I've ever seen, out of any story, throughout any medium.

I'm only trying to get my point across when I say this, but I am still feeling physical pain from both the shit pacing and absolutely abhorred ending Mousou Telepathy has, about 3 hours after ... reading the final page/chapter. There was so much potential for an absolutely mind-blowing masterpiece here; at the end of chapter 153, my ongoing rating was a 9.7/10, the highest I've personally rated any one thing, ever - whether it be anime, manga, movie, tv show, music album, song, video game, video, (video) essay, anything. If there were not a few hiccups on some of the attempted comedy and a little bit of stuff that was poorly communicated to the reader, I would've actually had an ongoing rating of 10.0/10, because there would've been absolutely no flaws and literally everything would've been executed astronomically well. I do not think I can express how downright insanely amazing the first ~150 chapters of this manga are.

From that point onward, unfortunately, everything falls into an insanely boring, outright angering, and entirely out of character story progression-based loop, that happens twice and lasts for about 400 pages/chapters. Basically, the MC gets into some extensive, long-lasting embarrassing situation, doesn't want to perform a major plot point, and then gets depressed for a vaguely related reason. I'm being incredibly vague because I want to avoid describing any specific plot points that may entice someone to read Mousou, as I really think it would just make their day much, much worse.

After that, Mousou stagnates. Hard. While stuff is technically happening, the plot actually barely develops, there are an insanely large amount of blueballs, and a lot of the characterization up until this point is entirely flipped on it's head. The best way I can describe it is this: Around chapter 450, one of the characters is revealed to some information that, upon being used correctly, could bring the MC to do the one major plot point and basically end the manga (450 could be way off - I forgot to exactly document the page of this event - but I did document the next point, which basically makes having an exact page-stamp of this event pointless/unnecessary). On chapter 662, that same character performs an action that does help the MC get closer to doing the major plot point, but fails to piece together information she gained within the first 150 chapters and the information she got chapter ~450 and apply it, which would've literally definitely caused that major plot point to happen. The only way I can think this would happen is because the author simply forgot this character knew this crucial information, or insisted on not having the character break a promise she made early on. Due to how this character acts, however, and the fact that beyond the first time it's spoken, that promise is never called on or even thought of, I'm inclined to believe it's the former.

Finally, the ending. I'm not going to bore you down with how bad the ending is, since I'm sure you don't want to read another paragraph, but I will say this: The ending fails to resolve one of the manga's main points of tension, which actually existed from chapter 1.

In conclusion: 1.7/10. I'm just sad. So, so sad.

If you want a raw catalog of my thoughts as I read through this manga (which does include spoilers, unavoidably), check out this pastebin. Everything about format and whatnot is explained there.

P.S. (This is edited in) Initially I didn't want to read the epilogue before I wrote this review because it's told by the author to the reader (in the ending thank you and credits) that it resolves the main point of tension I talked about earlier. Turns out it's also shit, as while it does technically resolve that tension, it does so in a whopping 2 pages, and only barely mentions two of the numerous initial problems it would create before ending.

Yep, this manga's shit. Goodnight.
