Preliminary (14/? chp)
I'll start this review by saying that I'm biased. I love Okita in the mobile game, only reason I started reading this manga.

And boy am I glad I did. It's a great manga. The art style is superb, and the plot is pretty interesting.

Starting off with the main character, he's not the greatest protagonist of all time, but he's got one key trait: believable. And even relatable. He's thrown into the plot with very basic knowledge of magecraft, just enough so that he can believe his eyes. And the way he reacts and adapts to his surroundings is relatable to a certain degree to the average reader.

His servant, Okita is cute and scary. Beautiful out of combat, downright brutal yet elegant during a fight. She's a bit more evolved than her joke-self in the mobile game, but that was the premise of the manga. A more serious take on Koha Ace.

We've also got supporting Fujiya who serves pretty much the same role Rin does in the original fate, but I can forgive her. And there's also a minor twist about her relating to the Main character.

The plot resolves around a Holy Grail war taking place at the end of WW2 in Japan and features mostly Japanese servants that many might know from other fate media. I enjoy the dynamics between the currently shown masters and servants and between each others.

There's also some pretty interesting subplots happening in the background which I can't wait to see where they go.

Only downside is that well, the main antagonist so far seems a bit generic in his motivation. Definitely plausible, but a bit tired when it comes to his main tropes and cliches.

Overall 10/10 Okita-san Daishouri! Must read for Okita fans.
