Just a quick warning... this Manga is probably not for everyone. It's very in-depth information-wise, and I even read a review that it was the equivalent of putting a college history/anthropology course into a fantasy story, which is pretty accurate. That being said it's extremely interesting, weaves the story elements with the historical elements very well, and has a lot of great characters that have strong arcs throughout the manga. The romance elements are also very solid, although you do get common tropes of which one to go with and slow romantic development throughout, there is a solid reason why this is
...
the case with the Protagonist and it's great to see that bit develop.
Warning: if you don't like to read a lot than this might not be the manga for you, although there is a fair bit of action as well and it's handled very well.
Now... for my gripe. If you're a native English speaker than you're out of luck for now. I have only read through Volume 16, and that's because 17/18 have not been translated into English. I've scoured the web looking for this... Both through manga websites and through the book shops. They have up to Volume 16 translated since early last year that they were selling, but 17/18 is not. I read some speculation that this was because of a licensing issue, and that yen publishing has picked up the license and were going to release sometime in February of this year (not sure if all the volumes or just 17/18), but I haven't heard anything official. So be prepared to be as disappointed as I was having read through everything but the end :(
BTW if someone has any info on an English version of 17/18 PM me.
