How often does this manga publish?

 

[Basic_human]

This manga fight scene incredible, one of most realistic sword fight I've seen out all manga I read

 

[magister]

actually incredible manga pls update

 

[slyss]

By the way, the manga has sold over 3.5 million copies for the first four volumes— which is an insane number to think about.
(And this was back in September 2023!)

Now, there's no doubt in my mind that this will get an anime adaptation.

sometimes it's pretty good, sometimes kinda bad. let's see if it'll find some balance.

So basically this guy basically raised his harem prospects...

 

[Keepbro]

The handshake with the Blacksmith --- lol!

 

[flxsemi]

The panel composition and character postures for battle scenes, the disciplined writing, the character designs, the battles that don't get bogged down by unnecessary exposition...

...I'm so tempted to give this a 10...

I really like the art style, now whenever the mc is such a spineless/dickless/impotent/dense-af/zero-sexual-awareness Oji-san is an entirely different story (this trope needs to die), I'll give this a 7 for the art, I almost give it a 6

cool, i am out

Nice enough adventure and fantasy manga. The fights are quite dynamic and the main character is OK. It's true that it's essentially the master surrounded by his strong female pupils but there's no real romantic relationship, more father-girl or master-pupil one (except for one but I guess it'll remain kind of background. So no real harem here.
It's not exactly ground-breaking but it's a fun read.

Still a better love story than Swag Art Online.

 

[DungeonsDragon]

I have read series with the romance tag that had less romance than this ( the characters never showed ANY romantic interest or story plost ) Here we have a MC who has been kicked out till he gets married. His dad is telling him he wants to see his grandchild.

Did this get a duplicated under a different name? I swear I had the backwater swordmaster or smth along these lines already in my reading tab

1. He himself said that he's still not able to beat his dad.

2. His pupils are MUCH younger than him. No matter they have grown up, in his mind they're still his 'children'. See Ch. 11 p. 30.
