This manga is a jewel.

The story is very simple, the characters are fun, cute, and charming, and the art by itself is good, nothing groundbreaking, but the artist IS very good, but... the way the fights are done.

Since I started reading this manga, I still can't believe how INCREDIBLE the storyboarding of the fights is, it is... cinematic, there is no better way to describe it.

I have nothing against when images are "still panels", but the greatest artists are those who can draw motion in a way that is vivid... Satou-sensei goes a step further, he composes the scenes like they are part of a movie. There is a dynamism here that I very rarely see.

Which brings me... to the anime... truth be told, I knew the anime wouldn't have the same feel as the manga, which is... kinda ironic.

When they chose the artist to draw this one, they struck a DIAMOND mine, i dont think i would like this story as much as i do if Satou-sensei didnt had such a incredible hand for composing the fights, and by some things i read he may have made a few changes in the flow of the story too, or maybe the Sagasaki-sensei did those to vary the versions a little.

With each new fight this gets better and better as new strong fighters enter the story, with diverse style of fighting, and the fact that you can see that they fight diferently of each other is amazing, like someone pointed out... the fights play like a dialogue, you can see the words not written in every motion of each character.

Seeing the way the old man uses his magic was a joy.
Worst thing about the anime is that they cut the whole church arc down to 2 episodes. All those epic fights and villains are gone. Poof.

Wow... just... wow... just the fact that the anime already IS on the church arc would say a lot... but... TWO EPISODES?

Against someone who may be the greatest foe this series may ever have?

Wait... does this mean they cut Fissel and Kuruni's fights?

No, please don't tell me anything about how Beryl and Schuple's fight went, I don't wanna know, don't wanna take the risk of corrupting any detail in my memory with whatever travesty they did.

it was completely rewritten basically right after they encounter twilight. The anime is on Amazon. Be warned though a lot of those scenes in the manga that would give you goosebumps are pretty much gone in the anime. the griffin scene changed too. I’ll probably keep on watching it for now. But the anime viewers have been robbed.

Same :c
I do have a sliver of hope, cause we can see the poison bladed guy talk to the "very bad guy",
but then he doesnt appear on the "rest" of the arc, so maybe there is more yet to come....

Feels like it'll be the Sword Saint. Aside from that.

Find it funny how I've had to go to friends who watched the anime and found it lacking and be luke: check out this manga instead. The designs, the storyboarding, the relationships, why do they all feel so much better?! Lolol.

But yeah, really can't wait for next chapter, been waiting so long it feels like...

I wouldn't be surprised if Galaxy Degen Scans are holding onto chapters right now giving their reputation and track record. RAW is up to volume 9 and we're still on 7 here.

I have been reading the LN recently. And I'm surprised to say the manga added more the the story than the light novel.

It was hard to judge how strong mc actually is. And his lack of personality/will.

His fight vs Lucy for example, was kind of out of nowhere, as she didn't trick him by saying she hurt fissel.

Mio s adoption is also kind of reluctant. And the whole enrollment fight and teaching didn't happen or hasn't happen yet. As it jumps to the next arc.

They also arbitrarily decided that mio s sister was already dead before finding her. And they never told her that she is dead or how she died.

In the manga mc is much more of a living person.

Mc did trigger his dad mode though. In the Ln.

I think there's a chance that his father might be the last boss (not as a villain of course) but a last opponent that he will fight, and i think his father is not just an ordinary sword master maybe he was once a disciple of sword saint or he was the sword saint himself. This is only my speculation don't worry
