Truthfully I see people comparing it to Magi and I don't see much resemblance :/ They're following a totally different route and different themes. Heck the (soon to be) main heroine is so different from Morgiana :O (in terms of personality) While it's true they're both shackled by people (the Lord and Jamil) it follows a different concept on how they're shackled (Tsumugi: she's always verbally shackled which lowered her self esteem while Morgiana: fully aware of her status as a slave and was treated such, it didn't necessarily lower her self esteem)
Though I at first thought Kojiro was similar to Alibaba (in some ways yes..) the beginning of this story, Musashi definitely was kind of like Alibaba (following the flow and not saying his thoughts out, and once they're out, they stay out ) Also I love how Ohtaka made Musashi really hot headed and stubborn, compared to Aladdin who's calm xD That was a really nice touch I will add.

it's a carbon copy of magi tho the mangaka failed to shine the characters like magi, it has a great potential but I'll drop it for now

I gotta say, I absolutely love the author's talent for costume design, unique looks and aesthetics every time she introduces a new character. Like those heels the heroine wears? Impractical, but damn does she slay in them and not to mention her weapons are iconic af.

This has the same energy as Magi for sure but I can't say I'm as invested with it atm, it has got some surprises though and has gotten a few laughs out of me so I'll give it some time

It's so fucking messy.
Line use is messy. Characters don't stand out from background if there even is a background.

The early chapters of MAGI were PERFECT and the artist just dipped into a terrible artstyle. It's so annoying to follow the action. Too many things draw your attention with all of those bold lines. Art wise I want to like this guy. His artstyle is super unique and he's a great character designer. I hate reading his manga though. It just gives me a headache, and the story's not even all that good in this one. Such a fall from grace from the early chapters of MAGI.

Hey, you guys remember that time Arlong had Nami completely wrapped around his finger, so Luffy beat the shit out of him to free his friend? No reason for me to mention it, none at all.

*try for the second time*
*gulp*
Too flashy.
I have nothing else to say, TitanAnteus already represent me how I actually feel about this manga.

 

[wanstarz]

so our hero is just a gaijin?... hes just a gaijin with a pole. hahahaha im amused.

 

[Rin2k]

Can't believe artist went ahead and destroyed his/her art style. sigh. At least the costumes are somewhat nice.

 

[tanooki]

@Rin2k funnily enough if you draw for a long time your style will naturally evolve

 

[Nami-Sempai]

Bruh change the cover cuz it fucking look like for a gay

 

[Synically]

And its a good thing ,you bigot.

 

[ark-sama]

u know for a Japanese book this aint that bad

 

[Sdauf]

Why is this series so far behind? The latest chapter at this time is 51.

 

[OmegaKaiser]

The spanish translation on TuMangaOnline is only chapter behind the source material while the english translation is stuck. I wonder why but here is hoping it returns.

 

[Allim]

@sdauf
if you used google translate you can probably understand the spanish translation.

You do realized you're asking ppls to remove this manga from this site by asking for a publishing request right?

IE: DMCA

___ ___ ___

And yes, the English is scan up to chapter 40, just apparently chapter 35~40 isn't uploaded on this site.

 

[Lone_Samurai]

Yes, an official release would be more reliable than the English scanlations which are on chapter 40 while the raws are on chapter 60.

 

[chaos_animagic]

Reliable doesn't matter if majority of ppls is unable to read the series afterwards... which would in term makes it unreliable.

Seems like you don't understand what DMCA means... as you think an official release is beneficial to this site... in fact it's the opposite. Do you really think you can continue to read the series after it's officialized?

DMCA means you can no longer read the manga at this site. (IE: the comments and page we're looking at right now would be halted)
