It's a fun, 2 volume shonen with nothing out of the ordinary. Both the story and the characters follow classic tropes but that is not a bad thing.
As always, Horikoshi's art is very nice to look at and I personally liked seeing how this art style got to the MHA version.
Now, the problem with this manga is that there is not much to say about it but MAL won't let me publish the review without more words so I am just fluffing it out for the heck of it.

If you want to have a bit of fun and don't want to read a long series, ... definitely give this a try.

This manga is very underrated I read this book when I was younger and I forgotten about it till now. But it was made by the same person who made My hero Academia and I'm a fan of his work so I was looking on what else he did and I remembered this book. I'm kinda sad it only got two valumes but it's definitely worth the read if you like Horikoshi's work.

Horikoshi's art stile is very noticeable and easy to remember and I can see that some of the characters have similar designs from MHA characters so that's cool. The story is ... very good, it starts out as a cliche Prince and the pauper story but it gets better after around chapter 4 or 5. And I like how it mixes a little bit of fantasy, steam punk and si-fi genres.

Sorry if this review is crap. I just woke up.

Interesting setting and memorable, easy-to-understand characters, but the plot progression ran in conflict with the entire synopsis, and it sort of stumbled over its own feet as a result.

The pitch: Plucky protagonist boy replaces his royal double in a sci-fi fantasy re-imagining of the Prince and the Pauper, with stress on how he's more worthy of the role of prince, but his double was still a real person (who is nothing like him) and his loss is felt by most of the characters, both positively and negatively.

The story: Plucky protagonist gets a new awesome weapon and wanders off into the featureless desert to fight mooks ... because Battle Manga, I Guess, leaving 80% of the setup behind.

Understandable why this one didn't take off.
