Gunparade - "What are they thinking?"

Anime News Network - Review: "Where does 'proper' manga stop and doujinshi begin? That's not a question that the Gunparade March Anthology addresses, but it's certainly relevant, as many of the contributors in this volume are doujin specialists. Throw them in with artists from other fandom-related disciplines, like gaming, collectible cards, and even some who do actual manga, and the result is a product that fluctuates between sharp humor and near incoherence. Squeezing over 20 artists into 160 pages may not have been the smartest idea, and with many of them being no more than highly accomplished semi-pros, it's like a glimpse into the rising-but-stuck-halfway stars of manga. Are you sure you want to pay $10 for this?"
