Art reminds me of those old school shounen manga's but the story's really hard to get into...



Ps: I cant handle the amount of edge this manga offers

The story screams chuunibyou and for the first chapter, tries way too hard to lie down everything. The pacing became all messed up
Furthermore, the artist seems to be new since the best looking shots are closeups of the characters and their longshots are frankly still rigid and awkward.
They seem to be working on it by themselves too, from the quality of the backgrounds.

Dont think I will be following the story closely. Read at your own discretion.

oh brilliant, the rich have even more power
oh but there's this one guy who likes cats so that means that there should definitely be a reason why only specific bloodlines should be allowed to be in command of what is essentially immunity from ranged attacks. And there is definitely no one who would misuse this power. And there will definitely always be nobles of pure heart who won't ever bow to any form of corruption and are definitely powerful enough to combat against all of the nobles who would misuse their power. and even if there is anyone who is literally a saint with overwhelming power, who's to say that that influence will last any span of time after their death- leading to a far worse situation, Oh but there is always knights pure of heart to save the day!

There was a reason for the French revolution(s) and that is because anyone placed into a position of authority, even minor authority, will undoubtedly misuse that authority. Yay for oppression of the people via violent means as long as the dictators are hot!

Moral of the story: the Noble hunters are the good guys. Imma read more and hope they win.

Edit: Chapter two do be pretty cool though.
but I still hate rich people.
brilliant art, a hilarious page where a character
is liteyally performing a "no u" with a card that looks like it says no u.
. and I still have no idea what's going on, but I do hate rich people so imma keep reading and hope to decipher the wtf.

The title is screaming EDGE but I have nothing to read so here we go.

Edit: I was right the edge in this one is so strong and the stupid story isn't helping.

...may I remind you that a major reason the French Revolution (the big onw of 1789 specifically, they've had a few) went through in the first place was because a large chunk of the aristocracy joined in? The numerous lesser nobility were as tired of royal mismanagement and the higher nobility throwing their weight around (eg. monopolising senior officer posts in the military) as the humbler estates. Hell an important step in the whole thing getting started was the provincial parlements - appellate courts cum administrative bodies largely composed of local minor nobility - essentially mutinying against the King over tax issues.

from what I've seen that appears to be what's happening in the few chapters, with the mysterious guys seemingly with noble powers fighting the others for no reason (that was mentioned at least) other than the battle for noble supremacy

Well, that'd be basically accurate historically speaking; few popular revolts and suchlike ANYWHERE EVER got very far other than an early grave without the sorts of people who had actual education, leadership training, combat skills and wargear, etc. etc. pitching in - and rare was the uprising that couldn't find at least a handful of (at the very least opportunistic) sympathisers among the upper classes. It's really amazing what even highly-privileged upper aristocrats could get behind for any bizarre constellation of personal reasons and beliefs. And if the warrior aristocracy of the setting has *actual* bonafide hereditary abilities above and beyond those resulting from, y'know, wealth and training and upbringing and connections etc. as in the real world, well, that kind of both rather strengthens their practical claim to inherited privilege and right rule in the first place (since when you get down to it that tended to boil down to being able to beat people up and still does, we've just graduated from private warlord retinues to national standing armies and police forces - scholars call this territorial sovereignty and state monopoly on legitimate violence; also, faster rotation and less pure crapshoot of genetics in terms of leadership), and doubles down hard on the need for dissenting sympathisers for any viable bid to shake up whatever happens to be the current status quo. After all if your overlord is the actual fucking Superman and you don't have a royal flush of Kryptonite at hand (and he'd have to be bloody retarded to not put all of that under lock and key, though how trustworthy the people he then has guarding it might be another matter entirely...) then fighting him is kind of a losing proposition unless you can find someone of at least roughly equal power to even the odds.

@RNDM1 ok stop being a smarty-pants (really do appreciate your knowledge on the subject though) I just wanna see a bunch of peasants initiating a revolution with peasant tools. Pleasant Peasantries plot.
