After reading this, I'm actually surprised that there's no anime adaptation for this, nor acknowledgment, This story is a 10/10 for me and here are the reasons why
Story 10/10
The story is followed from the beginning till the end, despite having some "filler" chapters, they manage to connect it into the main story. Every sub-story has a reason, not because the writer ran out of ideas. Everything has a purpose in this story, the meet-ups, the rumors and many more. The story is the right balance of adventure for me, not boring nor exciting, sometimes funny and sometimes tragic. Its the right blend for an adventure centered story. Words cannot describe how amazing the story is, You might say that I'm overreacting but I find a good story If i really read it till the end (idk if that makes sense).
art 10/10
Despite having no realistic illustrations, colorful pages. IT really lets you into the main mood of the story that were not only having a fun-time adventure, not that the story is about having fun. the story has a dark, well "gray" concept (if thats the right words)
Character 10/10
one of the things I like in this Manga, is that everybody has a purpose, everybody has a major role in the story. They Use the character in other chapters because they are also part of the story that makes the "history" of that story. Lets say for example. Chapter ?? volume ?? the story where in a kingdom travelers must tell a tale to satisfy the princess, the people who are the "travelers" is also a fellow traveler that Kuro cross path with in the previous chapter. Every Character is well made to connect to the present chapter, the past stories and the future.
enjoyment 10/10
This is the first manga that excites me every time I wake up there is a voice inside me to read it now instead of doing some chores. that's how I enjoy the Manga and I hope you'll enjoy it as you read it
overall 10/10
ITs the most amazing stories/manga I have ever read im my entire life and I would Love to recommend you this Amazing Masterpiece.
And I hope that this will have an anime adaptation cuz it will be amazing if that happen
