"Assassins Creed - Blade on Shin Jun" is an adaption of a PS game and is about two main character in different time periods trying to better themselves and the world aound them. Since I haven't played that one I can't say if it's a faithful adaption. But it actually explains the core of the world building just fine. You can read it without having any knowledge from the games.
Story 5,5/10:
The Story is quite alright and straight forward. You get a lil character arc, a lil devolpment. It can be confusing sometimes due to the many random timeskips from younger to older to
...
a bit older to a bit younger. It's a nice mechanic the mangaka used to show backstory but the way they implented it in the story is meh. It just made it more confusing since the storyline goes forwar even in the backstory events. There two seperate stories taken place simultaneously which is done quite alright. I cannot care for each of them cause they are really simple. One lil thing inside the story is done pretty well tho.
Art 4,5/10:
The Art is okay I guess. Poorly made backgrounds with okayish character design. Some of the faces just look the same. The panelstructure is actually good, nothing special, but good.
Character 6/10:
The Characters are actually enjoyable. I must admit tho that they are quite plain at times but they are wirtten consistent and doing there jobs. They act forseeable in a good way.
Enjoyment 7/10:
The Enjoyment was to my surprise quite high. I don't know why but I was always happy to read a volume. The story is simple, the art is simple, everything the manga offers is simple. Just turning your head of and read that is what its here for.
Overall 6/10
