Chapter 2 is out now...and really, "kill or be killed"? I think I've heard that many times before. Kinda curious what that new strange technology can really do though.

Wait, who is the older sibling? I could've sworn last chapter said the sister was older.

So far so good, art is great, but so far, nothing I can really say "great" about regarding the plot. Weird and good, but not really great.

Time will tell

"daed or..." nice try translators

Talk about generic.

Join us or go home and live a regular life with your prosthetics.

I liked the fact that he didn't join and the bit with the shitty prosthetics was kinda funny. But nothing in this manga is interesting. The world isn't fleshed out and the characters are very one dimensional.

The enemy in question is ridiculous. An animal head? Come on.

We all know that gear will go to the main character and he will destroy the spider, then join the Jackolop.

Next issue in December? Lmao mangaka made two chapters and is already taking a two month break.

You're expecting great world building after only two chapters? Also, you do realize that this is a monthly series right?

Gotta love the typical generic = bad posts

Anyway, this chapter was funny....MC continues to impress me and I'm loving that doctor lady lol

Woohoo, the 2nd chapter is finally out. Still loving it so far, and the little bits of comedy were nice. Beautiful artwork as expected, considering that this is the authors' 2nd work.

"Continued in December"?? this is a sin

That ending was pretty intense.

Those prosthetics were pretty sad looking.

If a manga doesn't have amazing world building and well developed characters within the first two chapters it is automatically shit. Also next chapter will be next month.

Well, I agree with Eylandos. The first chapter annoyed me and the second one bored me. The gore didnt impressed me and the characters are pretty bland. I've already lost interest.

Fucking bitches, why do you stop there -,-It was just getting tense.
I am absolutely loving this manga, for all of the possible ways to go to for the MC( forced into joining, half-assed joining) I'm glad they took this path where our MC will probably just voluntarily join, the path they chose for him to take is a very enjoyable one. Another amazing chapter, I can't wait for more chapters.
Still a 9/10

How can you read manga or watch anime with a mindset like that? With your logic, every anime or manga should be god tier from the beginning. Which is impossible, and you're expecting WAY too much.

If you are doing a monthly manga, then you need to flesh out each chapter greatly to catch the interest of the viewers. We don't know the world they are living in terms of how advanced their technology, what causes the animal heads and a small backstory on jackolop. Basic storytelling here is thrown out the window.

Look at the first chapters of One Piece, Full Metal Alchemist and other great works. Compare those to this and see how pathetic this is in comparison. World building is non existent, only character who is slightly developed is the main. Everything is else is side stepped for gore and cool action poses.

Why is it that every single topic in every single monthly manga always has people commenting about how they think the manga is taking a break? December issue = November release, November issue = October release, etc. they are not taking 2 months off.

P.S. i wouldn't have minded the mistake had this guy not smugly laughed at the author for "taking a break"

Still not feeling the MC or the awkward place comedy at times, i hope this gets better fast.

Akuta's past has my slight interest though.

My question is who has the best translation for Smokin' Parade because mangastream uses Yoko while others use Youkou which is the official use by the mangaka? Plus the translation for chapters are very different aswell.

Wait, wasn’t the doctor a guy? Idk but when I read it, it called the doctor a “he” I’m probably delusional, so correct me if I’m wrong XD
