50 nuances de gras is a manga in 7 volumes, in progress, released for the first time in 2019 in France. It belongs to the Doki Doki edition in the seinen category. We will discover this manga that talks about fantastic creatures but also… of fries!  

Unlimited fries!

Before even discovering the work in question, we can analyze the cover of this manga as well as its title: 50 shades of bold. A humorous title that refers to the famous trilogy of 50 Shades of Grey. Although the title has something to entertain us for a moment, the front cover is not to be neglected: a yellow background, referring to the colors of the fries as well as a gironde elf, fries in the mouth. The title and the front cover tell us a lot about the sequel. But what is it really?   50 shades of bold Volume 1

 

This is the story of Naoe, a simple human with an even more mundane life. He works in a massage and wellness center where he relieves his clients of their little injuries. It is then that he meets Erufuda, a young girl who is a little chubby. This person is nothing but an elf stuck in the human world. The cause? His addiction to fries! Of course, the scenario does not end there. Naoe must prepare to meet many more fantastic creatures than he thought. An elf in the human world is already not a normal case. Naoe's mission will be to give advice to these dear creatures to heal their bobo. A creature, a problem, a solution! The character of Naoe is described as discreet and reserved, compared to fantastic creatures that stand out for their character that does not go unnoticed. Another detail that can be noticed is the drawing of these characters. Naoe is not highlighted and has fine features while Erufuda and his companions have much coarser and rounded features. Naoe also has a nickname that does not highlight him: "the human".  

Beware of the age limit!

On the back cover, a small detail can make the buyer of this manga hesitant. Indeed, at the bottom of the page, we find the "reserve for an informed public" to prevent shocking scenes. This is indeed the case when we find our favorite creatures naked. Besides the fact that the manga has an age limit of 15 years, this work has many hilarious scenes to discover for yourself. Although manga is humorous at its core, the work allows us to learn a lot about health and well-being. Our main character, Naoe, is a huge source of reusable information and advice. His remarks are about eating healthy but also about staying healthy.   This manga is therefore equipped with two extraordinary abilities: entertaining while getting to know our body. Between an elf who devours fries and a human having to take care of different creatures, the author gives us something to entertain us a good shot!
