Reminds me a mixture of how FMA started + Princess Mononoke. What does that mean? :') Looks interesting we'll see how it goes.

The setting is interesting, but seems a bit flat, and the artwork is lovely, but so much of the content is rather bland dialogue.
I don't think this will pan out, but I think if this artist teams up with a writer or even just a consultant, it could really turn into a beautiful setting-driven manga, which is something rather rare these days.

You know when the mangaka wants to make something special, a masterpiece, and while they can draw well they're just not good enough at writing? It's this here.

This manga has the word "anime adaption " written all over it.

@KajurN You hit the nail on the head. It just makes me want to read Sunday Without God, which I am absolutely certain this was intended to emulate (same as all the young girl married to demon stories that came off of The Ancient Magus' Bride). I dont think the author even knows what they want to do with the story, there's no clear direction, intent, or even focus.

@MCX01 I thought so too. The story gives the feeling that it would get a great anime adaptation 😃

Setting, artwork and characters are great. Character development is also a thing. I'm just worried it might drag on for too long. Ideally it should have been more melancholic, for her to gain permanent injuries in her travel as she reaches her goal. It might bring in too many subplots for it to remain relevant. 7.5/10 - it's well made.

So this has been licensed, going under the name Alpi The Soul Sender in the US. I'd be happy about this, as I really like this manga...if it weren't for the fact that Titan Comics is the company that licensed it. For those not in the know, Titan Comics has come under fire for their really, REALLY awful, obviously machine-made English translation of the Kamen Rider Kuuga manga, along with false advertising in regards to said translation.

I hope someone continues to scanlate this, as it's a great series. It also ended at 7 volumes.
