I'm so glad I finally got around to this!
I wasn't sure what to expect given that I've read quite a few adventurer-centered manga recently, many of which use a mission-per-chapter structure. I love that this was centered more around Robin as a character and how he "devolved" into such a con artist, heavily due to his warped perception of his how identity thanks to those around him; the revelation about his powers was not something I saw coming, and I'm really intrigued as to how the concept will develop going forward! Also, Kyle... what a boy lol. That lil twist at the end was too funny and was the spark I was needed; I am definitely looking forward to continuing on with these characters! Overall, this is an "easy read" (and slightly predictable), but there was enough substance for me to stay engaged and form a connection. 3.75 out of 5 stars, ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
