Crimson Grimoire

Just now realized all the chapter names are song titles.

A cool twist on magic, with the whole drawing thing. I always think that’s kind of cool, but I wish the characters used it more freely and experimented. Plus it’s not to well explained. Like why don’t they make futuristic gear, or magical items? Or did I miss something explaining this. I think they should explain that a bit better.
The art is pretty good, which is nice. The story could use some work, maybe I’m not reading carefully enough but it’s confusing a bit.
I like the MC a lot, she feels real, and is turning out to be more than just a wimp with a powerful person protecting her (red riding hood I mean). The other characters are a bit boring and I can’t get invested in them, but luckily the more main characters are semi interesting.
I don’t see how it’s ecchi and a gore tag should probably be added.
Overall I’d give this a 7/10.

Also @aratataoatatara what do you mean?

Thanks translators for the translations, it’s a good story so far, but from what Arata said it was axed, so I hope it doesn’t get bad.

As far as legendary beasts X magical girls x modern weapons battle mangas i've seen, it's reasonablely grounded.

And torture porn free, which IS valuable. magical girls getting gored and enslaved seems a bit too common in this trope.
Not too much deus ex-machiney, character progression is well thought out, and the MC isnt just a mary sue...

sucks to know that it got axed. the pace suggested a 12 tome run (at tome 3 we got the introduction of the bad guy, so logically the next volume would've been the training ark for reals (tm)), so cuts are going to be a pain to read.
