Guts forming a party really hurt the series. But the disaster volume 15 (one of the worst volumes of manga I have ever read, let alone this series) was and adding magic destroyed the series for me. This series should have been about 8 volumes and could have remained a 10/10, but there are too many volumes that shouldn't exist to give it this score as it stands.

Starting to see a small upswing with this party now in 27 this series. It doesn't take away from how bad the party formation was, although at least this new stuff is readable.
