The Royal Cup by Bastien Vivès

4.0

The Royal Cup : The Stranger :: Empire Strikes Back : A New Hope. This is the point in the series where the exposition, world building, and character development gel - creating a synergy that energizes the reader and propels the story forward. In short, things have just gotten good, and it will be interesting to see where this French manga takes us! Although one might be tempted to write this series off as merely Shonen, the blending of action, adventure, fantasy, martial arts, and romance give the narrative a depth that will appeal to fans of many different genres.
