Blackguard 1

"The world is no longer what it used to be...."
The story of this manga is insanely cool. It really set up everything neatly in this first volume in terms of explaining the downfall of the world, the Shojo and how humans have tried to deal with them and continue to deal with them. I can see this story growing in future volumes to tell some really big moments that would be cool to see.
I agree with others that the art style is definitely not something i've normally seen. I'm not sure if the proportions or angles are a stylistic choice to convey something or if its just how the artist normally works but some panels just felt a little off because of it. Overall though it doesnt take away from the cool story.
