I personally liked the shadow boss fight since I think it was made clear enough that Dion only won via kamikaze and being fully drunk off the dragon juice, he already jumped into a fight well after it started to begin with and he still had to down like 20 potions just to trade and be out of commission after the fight anyways, if he just jumped in, slapped him around a few times then hit him with a final move before passing out or something then maybe I’d be disappointed but he ended the fight in worse condition than even the A tiers.
On the flip side I do not care for the new dragon villain sticking her nose where it doesn’t belong for reasons I can only imagine are stupid and will have many a chapter wasted on them, I also do not care for the insinuation that Yuki and dragon girl are rivals in…well anything really but especially not in love because I don’t even think Dion has known dragon girl for more than a week yet, say what you want about yuki being irresponsible about her party or being overly emotional or whatever but she spent literal days and nights searching high & low for that man despite the obvious answer being that he was dead and had zero issue with trying to kill a guild master just to get a crumb of info, that’s real dedication, of course she’s not on the cover and she’s the childhood friend so we know how this goes but for now she’s on top
