Synopsis

Welcome to Dead Rock, the underworld's top educational institution! A spot at this training facility for demonic mischief is all the young demon Yakuto has ever wanted, but in Hell, there's no such thing as an easy A. Plenty of Yakuto's fellow prospects won't survive the entrance exam, and even fewer will make it to graduation. So why bother? The prize, for those who survive this death game through perdition, is the world, in the palm of their hand!

I'd say I'm a pretty big fan of Hiro Mashima's stuff, even though I know he's not exactly known for mind-blowing stories. But I really dig his art style, which is why I've been following his work for a while now. Gotta be upfront about my bias here.

So, I've checked out almost the first 10 chapters of his latest manga, and I gotta admit, Mashima hasn't really switched things up much in terms of storytelling. That's where he kinda falls short. Still, I'd recommend giving this manga a shot because it's set in a pretty different place compared to what he usually writes about.

This is fantastic manga!! that first chapter was hype af!!!
The story is very unique in a way with different realms and worlds, and I really enjoyed it.
The art style similar to FT and EZ but still unique in its own way.
This shows mashima can go really dark if he wants to. The protagonist is sort of like an anti-hero and doesn't seem to f*ck around!!!
Great show overall, def recommend.

I'm biased on this one. It's just my taste, so don't take my word for it. I've been a fan of Mashima work since Rave Master, and it was the first manga I collected when it was being active.

Others say that if you like his previous work, you will like this one. But I'm going to have to disagree. It's different from his other work; it could be the school theme. I'm no longer a fan of it, so that's why I said it might be just my taste. This also removed the adventure part, which was a strong point of his previous work.
