| That last shot of Ryu sitting on the broken throne is pretty awesome. This manga does occasionally have some epic panel art. This manga was surprising in its intensity and storytelling, although its story beats and character arcs are pretty basic. Ryu is kind of hard to like to be honest, alternating between being gung-ho macho blockhead who wants to fight and a man depressed by violence in almost every other chapter. There is also very little growth for any of the characters since they remain basically the same. Kind of disappointed by Doma XIV as a villain though. Seemed like he was going to be interesting but he turns into a generic villain in the final chapters. They also never address the paradox of the whole "Ryu is a saviour" thing. I mean yes, Tadashi does tell Doma IV that Ryuji will save them in the future but how does Ryuji get to the future in the first place ? Would've been nice if it was implied somewhere that Doma IV somehow invented time travel to transport Ryuji but it seems like Ryuji time travels because the plot requires it. Convenience as plot tool isn't great but in a series that leans heavily on being realistic as opposed to pure sci-fi (Nothing in this manga is purely out of the realm of reality except for the laser guns), it feels especially egregious. Decent read overall, a fun ride back into the old days of shonen manga and one of the older examples of an isekai manga, though not of the current harem copy-paste versions. |
