Preliminary (426/584 chp)
Another martial art manga? Maybe so, but History's Strongest Disciple Kenichi has something special that makes you want to know more and more.
(...You will regret after reading the last chapiter simply because you'll have to wait another week for the next one)

"Fighting for the people I love", another cliché but trust me, this manga won't dissapoint you one bit.

Comedy, action, romance, drama - This manga has everything you need.

(No major spoils)
It begins like in most martial art manga where the protagonist is extremely weak but unlike most protagonists, Kenichi has 0 talent for martial art and will have to work much more than anyone.
He's a big coward ('I'm not running away, this is a strategy retreat!!!") but he will learn how to deal with it thanks to his desire to protect the people he cares about (Especially Miu).

I appreciate the romantic side of the manga very much, the relationship between the Miu and Kenichi is slowly developping but it's obviously there.
Usually I hate Shonens for the mere fact that they forget to add some "love spice" into the mix, this one is different!
NB: Even if there is some romance in it, this is FAR from being a shojo.

Also unlike Naruto, Kenichi learns far more techniques, I got tired of that God damn Rasengan and Shadow clowns (see what I did there?)

The author doesn't forget about his characters and will developpe every single one. (*cough* unlike Bleach *cough*)

The art is very well done and the comedy is present in every single chapiter.

Conclusion:
If you're a fan of martial art, good romantic comedy and/or shonens in general, not reading this manga is a blasphemy.
