Thank you to VIZ Media for the e-ARC!
This is only the beginning of the story but I’m very intrigued. The art is beautiful and the characters, while certainly falling into tropes, have definite potential. Honestly, I have no problems reading the same tropes over and over as long as it’s also interesting and while this one may not appeal to people who might have read a wider range of fantasy manga (or it might! We’re only on the first one after all and who knows what comes next) and want something brand new, this will probably still easily find its audience. I look forward to reading the rest!
