Started reading this manga after being pleasantly surprised at how good its anime was...it's a bit impressive how much worse the manga is. So many of the touches that elevated the anime adaptation are lacking here, like how the show spent almost its whole first episode establishing the MC's cred as an assassin in his original life, or the bizarre naked kata inspections set to ominous cello music, or how there was a date episode for the MC and Dia before he gets told he needs to "assassinate" her so the moment has more impact. Everyone in the manga comes across as more vapid and nonthreatening than in the anime, and the character designs and art in general is much worse.

Since a S2 is apparently supposed to air at some point I think I'm just going to watch that instead of reading more of the manga.

I'm curious if "Lugh" came from the original author. Such things are known to happen. Actual names like that exist, but they are spelled differently:

Hugh
Lew
Ryu

English, man.

How can someone with absolutely no talent — neither for writing nor for drawing (the bastard probably can’t even draw properly) — manage to have so many of his stories illustrated by professional artists and even get them published, when most of them are extremely bad, clichéd, and completely shallow?

This guy, with generic ideas and no artistic skill whatsoever, is living proof that mediocrity is praised, while truly talented and original people rot in obscurity. How does someone so undeserving get so much spotlight, while those who actually have something meaningful to say are completely ignored?
