The art is fantastic. That's about where the good news ends.
To begin with, the manga is a bit of an isekai with magic and Saya no Uta abominations thrown in. An interesting combination, but you quickly realise the isekai part serves no purpose except to exist. And then there's an attempt at mixing in comedy, but then it also throws in action. The result of this is a mash up of a bunch of genres and trope elements that just sit there with zero synergy, serving no end goal, and amounting to nothing for the reader.
Meanwhile, you still have no idea what is happening in
...
the actual story because no background context is revealed to you (and doesn't get satisfyingly established all the way until the arc ends). The pacing is throughly f**ked by this point by the sheer volume of "stuff happening" and genre mashing, but even the story itself gets rushed along. It's maybe 6 chapters in when you are finally given what you need to understand where this is set and what you are looking at. By the time the story figures out where it's headed, it gets AXED.
Honestly, I do believe it really had potential and that the story it tried to tell was somewhat interesting, but it kept on tumbling over itself. A great shame, but the series ultimately ran out of steam after blowing through all its ideas and revealing its full hand in the span of a mere 7 chapters and an extra.
