At first glance this is a Naruto rip-off heavily inspired by Demon Slayer, and you would be right. It's not new, it's not bold, it's just good.
The good stuff about this series are the following: ๐๐ก๐ ๐๐ซ๐ญ. I believe this is the first manga published by this writer and he quickly found himself a good art style. The paneling is easy to understand apart from a few very small panels which contain dialogue. Some panels are jaw dropping. ๐๐ก๐ ๐๐๐ญ๐ข๐จ๐ง. A lot of this series is just the action and it's great and brutal sometimes. ๐๐ก๐ ๐๐ก๐๐ซ๐๐๐ญ๐๐ซ๐ฌ. They are hit or miss as the
...
story forgets to flesh anyone that isn't one of the three main characters. Even so one of the main characters is still without almost any character development or backstory. But for those that do, they are well driven in their goals and the story often reinforces their goals. ๐๐ก๐๐ซ๐๐๐ญ๐๐ซ ๐๐๐ฌ๐ข๐ ๐ง. Every character is strikingly different from the other and the fashion they wear is representative of their character. It's goofy sometimes, but I like it. ๐๐ฆ๐จ๐ญ๐ข๐จ๐ง๐๐ฅ ๐๐จ๐ฆ๐๐ง๐ญ๐ฌ. This series isn't all just action and it has some nice emotional moments. I particularly like how some of them are visualized as we see the inner struggles of the characters.
The bad stuff about this series are the following: ๐๐ฑ๐ฉ๐จ๐ฌ๐ข๐ญ๐ข๐จ๐ง. It's shotty at best. Long, boring ramblings and uninteresting lore. Exposition comes right in the middle of fights when they could have come before. ๐๐๐ฆ๐๐ฌ. This one is minor, but a lot of people share this sentiment. There are too many complicated names. Among the long exposition you have the memorize these long ass names which are Chinese. ๐๐จ๐ซ๐ฅ๐๐๐ฎ๐ข๐ฅ๐๐ข๐ง๐ . I don't particularly like the world building in this series. The magic system is poorly explained and made up of a combination of different shonen magic systems which falls into this mess of doing whatever looks cool. The world-building itself is boring and the world doesn't feel like it was built around the rules of this world. One thing I do like is how the characters are so highly out of league with the powerful forces in this world. ๐๐ข๐ฅ๐ฅ๐๐ข๐ง๐ฌ. They are crudely one dimensional and I swear I've seen them elsewhere.
It's binge worthy so far just for art and action, but It's nothing great. In between a 6.5 or a 7 so far, yet it has potential.
