Not the best written (or perhaps translated). Felt like it was written for readers with shorter attention spans - not an issue, just felt like the story lost a lot because of that. The book could've been easily 300/400 pages long with all the rules and context that could've been provided to the reader.
It felt like heavy topics were used to add depth that could've been created with more story/background.
Otherwise the concept was very fun and interesting; the characters and their stories were very heartwarming. Definitely enjoyable.
