it's peak... it's just so peak...

WHY YOU SHOULD READ IT:
the fights are amazing, the narrative is amazing, there's high stakes and you love every single character. it also takes place in the same universe as the kengan and dumbbell series so there might be some overlap in the future. this is unironically better than kengan omega. great art too
here's how i would rate each aspect:
ART: 8/10 very creative, gives a feeling of impact, high quality in general.
PLOT: 9/10 well thought out and not at all predictable I would say. if it is predictable, it's only to some small extent.
CHARACTERS: 8/10 they're all unique and likeable ... in some way, and have well written dynamics between each other.
ACHILLES HEEL: the writer Sandrovich has some kind of lingering fetish for tournament arcs and whilst that's not necessarily a bad thing, he does it a lot in his works, so get ready for that.

This is definitely an anime material manga, a perfect martial art manga, so to speak. Each panel expresses an excellent sense of weight, movement, and impact.

The story lowkey is like Baki but female, with a slight sense of humour. The cute/stylized line art complements the manga itself to be more compelling.

The plot is interesting and quite unpredictable. Character designs are mint. The visuals of the manga are a mix of [Dumbbell Nan Kilo Moteru?] and [Record of Ragnarok] if you know what I mean.

I highkey couldn't wait for this to actually be made into an anime.

Plot 9/10
Visuals 10/10

Honestly I'll keep this review brief but only because there's just 28 chapters to review currently, but that's enough for me to have hope in this Martial Arts Manga, The Plot is irrelevant so if you are looking for an compelling story this might not be for you since it's just a bunch of fight scenes and the characters are fairly interesting and entertaining enough to keep your attention

Some of the panels in here looking absolutely amazing especially the fight scenes and especially some of the Hina panels

Once there's more to actually Review I'll make a follow up to this but so far it's great

Never knew there was another story behind the team of Kengan that just so happens to be occurring in the same world.
This is one of my top new favorites, Isshou Senkin dives into the Kengan world from a different direction.
The female MC is a fighter unfit for combat due to various reasons so she embarks to start up her combat organization.
I am completely pulled into the series for the long run. In terms of praise, I have nothing but positive things to say.

Ever since Danberu Nan Kiro Moteru blew away everyone with the insanely epic combat tournament, I always wondered if this aspect would ... be explored. Now that question has been answered, uniquely attractive characters all around, fluid yet logical combat, and a story as limitless as ever.
