how should i put it

this yuri has the romance dialogue formula but has no romance chemistry or any tension, feels like unseasoned yuri with good fighting scenes, it's like you're hiring an action-media artist to draw romance lol

characters be saying "i will fight the world for you" and i feeling meh
Aren't the tags user-assigned? I started reading this for the action and story, didn't even know this was supposed to be girl's love or whatever. I know I've seen people stubbornly add harem tags to the most random shit, even when it doesn't fit.
Meaning it's more like 'good fighting scenes with a hint of yuri for flavor'. So when Shurine says all this stuff, she's playing the role of a loyal knight, with a code of honor etc, who binds herself to a person with a contract and then goes all in on the loyalty as long as the contract holds - a slightly different type of chivalry compared to classic medieval knights we are accustomed to. In summary, Shurine is a laid-back girl with an extremely serious attitude when it comes to the professional matters.
Meanwhile, Lutecia is misrepresenting signs like crazy and getting teased about it.

I mean yeah...it's an action anime with a yuri romance subplot. Just like thousands of other series, romance isn't the focus. That's the problem with tags like this - it'd be nice to see a "THEME" and "TAGS" beneath it - so one can tell what the focus is but when they all appear at the same "level" it's up to the reader to figure it out as we go, but being upset by it is weird.

They barely know each other at this point, she only said she'd fight the world because she's finally found a place she can perform her "duties" she trained for at trusts her.

I didn't say all that because of the tag bro LMAOOOO, I said it because the story was obviously wanted to show me that

If the story had been indeed an action with little romance flavor, I wouldn't have to say all THAT, but it obviously shoved us big ass love lines in such out of place way, they haven't gotten much personal bonding together, heck I can still even say they just met, yet she's dreaming about her being her weakness as if they have been exes-lovers back forward or something, so isn't it make sense to comment on that inexperienced romance weirdness?

tags are not excuses for bad writing girl lmaoo, i never ask for romance to be the main focus, i ask for the story to be better written about what it wants to show, a well-written story is when a meaningless side rock can feel like it belongs to be there, so when a sub-plot like romance felt out of place, it's an inexperienced writing story

My dark prediction
that unparalleled knight could be the dead mother with necromancy, kinda like what they did with Game of Thrones
Nope.

Togoru Sasa writes 3 types of story: the Echi Slave one, Revenge, and Yuri Violence. And the whole dream sequence is new to the manga but appropriate to exactly how gay for eachother Shurine and Leticia are.

because when these characters were named Cierra and Alna, icecream was too subtle for Sasa's audience.

There is a Missing tag for this series, assuming the progression the books implied with Hein's relationships continue

The romance hasn't even started yet. That's the issue with your statement. You're acting like we're balls deep in a romance plot when in reality they've barely even started. Idk what "writing" you're complaining about exactly, when it doesn't exist yet. Should I complain that a love story doesn't begin until chapter 20 in a series as bad writing? At least use reasonable reasons why you don't like a series, not blaming "bad writing" because one of the sub plots isn't in chapter 1.

Again, these people barely know each other and haven't had much time to relax just yet. Sorry they didn't fall head over heels after 5 minutes.

Some tags are user/mod assigned here yes as story progress or to their discretion which can be annoying at times, but tags are usually how they are tagged in the sources (manga doesn't have it in comic ride yet), as this is an adaptation too, the Web Novel and Light Novel are tagged as Yuri/百合 and Girl's Love/ガールズラブ, so with that you know that the manga is going to eventually press more on that route

Considering only one person has read the novels, I can't take any of their opinions seriously because its literally just them giving an impression on material we haven't read, so really I have no expectations going into the new arc. And even if it was true the next arc "sucked", changes in the manga could fix those issues.
