Interspecies Reviewers (異種族レビュアーズ, Ishuzoku Rebyuāzu) is a Japanese manga series written by Amahara and illustrated by masha.

Plot

In a world where many different humanoid species exist and prostitution is legal, there exists various brothels for each kind of species run by "Succu-girls". As each species has different opinions on how each prostitute works for them, various brothel visitors have become reviewers, rating their experiences with various Succu-girls and posting them in the local tavern. The series largely centers on a human named Stunk, an elf named Zel, and an angel named Crimvael.
