Plot was something like this: "I'll take you in to somewhat soothe my guilt of killing beasts, while proceeding to kill beasts who threaten others. After spending some time with me you can learn how to take care of yourself."
Along the way of learning Mani these lessons, they overcome several obstacles, mainly loose beasts.
It tackled some heavier subjects, such as kidnapping, discrimination and racism, so there it has a bonus point for not being superficial.
Sadly this manga in a whole could have been better if the author made the story go on longer. I'm pretty sure there are several areas that could've been explained better. (There's a spin-off/prequel with some extra backstory to Hati and Skoll, so read that one too, even though it's not as good as this.)
This manga has quite a bunch of funny moments, I just found it memorable and worth mentioning.
There are decent plot-twists, but nothing extraordinary. The MC Wul does not have the "I'm untouchable and invincible" vibe. I love how in dire situations even he needs to be helped out, and that he has true weaknesses.
Mani is such a cute goofball!! She's charming without being annoying due to weakness (lack of strength), to a (lesser) extent she can help Wul out.
It was entertaining and the story kept me hooked through high and low.
A decent/mediocre variety in characters, but many are appearing only for a few chapters. I like how there's no roundabouts on what every character wants to achieve, especially in such a short story.
Art was amazing. There were many great panels with wide panorama shots.
Downsides?
-It took two thirds of the manga to discover they could write each other to try to work around the spoken language barrier, only to find out it wouldn't work either. It's a bit sloppy and elongated.
-Almost all of the enemies they encounter turn into "friends" or "good guys" afterwards. That's not realistic, more than few should stay evil.
-Story could've been broader, worldbuilding could've been better.
All in all it was a decent ride. Personally, it had the edge of 7 over 6, but it wasn't good enough to give more based on my own feelings.

TL;DR: A wholesome short manga with bits of violence, that dares to touch and hold heavier subjects like discrimination, racism and kidnapping, all of which can feel emotional. It has comedy to make characters more likable, which does its job pretty well.
Worldbuilding fell a bit short of being called 'great', even though it wasn't bad. Decent pacing, it doesn't feel boring or too slow, nor does it feel rushed. Awesome art (though not exquisite), which should be appealing to all readers.
