Based on reading this manga with a complete open mind and finding these reviews are not fair I will give my view on the story. Yes it is cliche and seems to be similar to Naruto but given I didn't like Naruto because I found the characters too annoying. But with this story I will say I find it more enjoyable than Naruto.
Story 7/10 (so far)
The story is your typical Main Character has no talent but his friend is a complete genius type of story. But the fact that the story is based on the MC (main character) not having any type of Magic in
...
a ALL magic world to be interesting. Also I think this story can be very good if the creator played it out right and because I feel the story does have similar traits to others easily makes you judge it based on other stories. If you judge it on other manga's of cause your not going to like it thinking the creator simply copied the ideas. But forget about other stories from different manga and thinking it has it's own story not based on others you can see there is a platform of a really great story or a really bad one.
But this being said the fact it is based in a world mostly on magic makes you think there is more than what you think.
Looking at it with a open mind I feel it can go either way on story. It has great platform to make a great story or it can be a cop out story.
Art 8/10
The art in this manga I feel suits the style of the story. It don't give me the feeling of it being either too much or too little for the story. I feel the character designs are very good and they are very different and they do make you remember them. And for a manga like this I feel like the characters and the area designs are very well suited for the story.
Characters 7/10
The Characters in the story I enjoy getting to know them. And from what I read and looked at the characters each have a charm to them but also have like something you want to know more on. Like the group in the Black Bull Magic-Knights are very different from each-other and you slowly grow to want to know more about them. Like there is one who is the Rebel kid, Drunk Witch, Sister loving wizard, food lover and so on.
I feel the characters can be explained on will be one thing I will look forward to and something which can make the story and get you involved with the characters. But so far the stories characters get you interested and wanting to get to know them and their back-stories.
Also I find the MC isn't over powered since he does get his share of battle wounds and the fact he isn't sure on why he has no magic makes him more interesting. Also if you feel he is over powered then you should look at it like "if he didn't have this ability then he will die on the first mission he had and manga over. The End. On to the next manga."
Also he is very loud with no view on giving up. This is why I like him because if he gives up quickly then what story can there be? He is not going to give up because he has been looked down on and he wants to prove them wrong. Also think of what he does in the beginning he trains his body to it's limits because he has no ability in magic, he done what people with a fire in their heart will do. Find something they can do and train themselves in it. So instead of training in magic cause he will useless at it, he trained his body so he can be a heavy hitter and faster without the aid of magic.
Enjoyment 9/10
Has I said if you go in to the story with a open mind and not with other mangas to compare it to, it is very interesting and quite funny. But if you go in with not so open mind and judge it when it hasn't gotten into the greater story you won't find it enjoyable and quickly find it boring.
I find the fact the MC has no magic interesting and wanting to know why he is like that and the reasons and if there is any more like him. But also I find the enjoyment in some funny one liners which is quite funny and make you chuckle.
The story is little fast in the beginning which makes me think it might be either a long story similar to Naruto or a decent sized one which gets you involved for about 20 volumes. But either-way the enjoyment of learning the characters and the backstories will be something I am interested in and looking forward to.
But if you go in with other mangas to compare it to then it is game over and you won't enjoy it and finding things to pick at it and you will find alot of similarities to more popular mangas and judge it on them.
Over all I give it 8/10
I feel it has potential to be a very good manga if the creators do it justice and based on the chapters I have already seen the story is just getting into the grip of what could happen. Also I advice people who have read other mangas to not do the rookie mistake and judge based on other mangas since they ain't the same story.
If you feel it is similar to another manga then just not let it be a mark where they have to meet because the stories will never be the same 100%.
