Gotta ask before I read this manga. Does it have romance? And is it too shounen-y

 

[MisterCrabs]

@Thelonewolf Not a whole lotta romance but yeah quite a bit of shounen tropes here and there

 

[Ninjafoo]

That's how I'd wanna go

 

[Ynneja]

@Ninjafoo: Same

Can't decide whether Diva or Caligula is sexier. /nosebleed

 

[Tsenzei]

@Ninjafoo I'm just impressed she managed to create a technique that leverages the cushiony nature of her breasts to make sure she doesn't take damage from the high-speed drive into the ground.

@Thelonewolf

Spoiler

There are bits of romance here and there, but it's pretty basic and more used as a part of explaining character and motivations than a primary feature, I'd say more than Bleach or Naruto if that comparison helps, but not by all that much. Which makes sense given that it's basically a growing bunch of young teenagers traveling from one highly dangerous situation to the next. Not sure if it's "too shounen-y" or "just shounen-y enough" since that varies for the reader, the battles are generally far less drawn out than the previous titles I mentioned for example. For me it's a welcome change of pace from one of the author's previous works: "Claymore", which, while good, was often rather depressingly "seinen-y."
