i'll wait for it to finish before i do look at it

Manga is not so good in general. I read 8 chapters and dropped it. Pretty dull as for me.

It gets better as it gets on. It's still setting things up in the first couple of volumes. I'd say things really take off around volume four. My only problem is the art in the manga wavers the longer it goes on and I had a few character issues with Gabimaru around volume 7.

Damn nice seiyuu lineup.

Also lol there are three kobayashis in this one anime, Kobayashi festival it is!!! :D

Thanks. I will watch the series. Hope that it won't be as boring as the manga.

After the setting up the action picks up. You just need to get through the character and antag introductions. I mean, a bit of a slow start, but if you like the cast you can do it.

Some people here wrote in their reviews that they read the whole manga and it is very boring and dull.

People can have opinions but I never thought it was dull. However it would be a lie to say it gets more boring the moment big fights begin happening. People still might find it dull, but it picks up at least a little

Ok, thanks for explaining!
