axe or timeskip?????

 

[Door321]

I'm guessing that it was a time skip considering it still says that it's an ongoing series

 

[DarkeLourd]

Oh boy I'm looking forward to this tournament arc-

I'm not involved with any uploaders but I'm pretty sure someone has to come along and manually change it from ongoing to finished. It's ogre.

Wait what

 

[Enderzone]

The concept was good but the pacing killed it. Absolutely glacial, it's a shame because I liked it quite a bit.

No man, look at the top of the last page. This is the end.

Thank you for the manga, I really enjoyed it and am going to miss it.

 

[KitRagnell]

What do you mean it’s over??!?

 

[NotALewdGuy]

Thank you for the scanlation.

 

[lightingcloud]

the uploader should tag this chapter as belonging to volume 4

 

[ocsibrm]

Confirmation of ending.

A quiet final episode. Thank you very much to the editor, the assistants who helped me, and everyone who read it.

 

[geogio13]

I'll be honest, I actually really liked the pacing of the series and I'm disappointed it's over already.

 

[Doedoel]

Thank you for the TL!

 

[TT0182]

Damn, really ended just like that huh

 

[Slayer_]

All good series can only lay still to the axe...

 

[Strela]

God fucking dammit another one??

 

[poopymonky]

really wish this one was longer it was a really fun series that stood out a lot to me. ill be reading whatever the artist puts out next

 

[exxeld]

You can tell this was the authors first work because the pacing was fucking brutal. The editor should have stepped in ahead of time they started that last training match arc chapter 7 and even by the 35th chapter it hadn't ended lmao. Just completely unacceptable pacing for an arc that should have taken maybe 5 chapter tops.

Its a damn shame too cuz the fighting game parallels to fencing was a great concept and the art was striking but they fucking loaded that training arc up so densely that there wasn't a chance in hell this series could go the distance with how much time they spent on it.

I'm legitimately baffled by how the author was allowed to let the arc drag on so long. There was even a chance for an out when the MC passed out after his match that I thought they'd just skip to the end of the training to allow for development outside of the training arc but they just brought us right back in lmfao.

I hope the author gets another chance for a series n the future but they gotta work with an editor who handles pacing a little better lmao.

Read this in one sitting, that was incredible and a very fun decon—seeing analogies used to explain things that still make sense was a little tickling and very naughty. Loved it.

But yeah, going right away for a full 9-course round-robin just for practice with the big bad was good for laying the basics and make the premise work, but it didn't help longer-term publication. Would've loved to see more, though.

The pacing itself was absolutely no problem when read through in a single sitting, maybe in tankoubon format if we're talking print, but it would've been a very quick hype-kill for regular releases. It is what it is, I guess.

Also, this and Shoujo Kishidan means I've read two sword-sports manga that I found endearing suffering from the axe. Sigh.

Thanks for the TLs!
