If you have read my previous review about Flame of Recca, I have a feeling that you might expect the hentai element is present in this manga. I don't know it's a good news to you or not but apparently there are no such things in this manga. Since the story revolves around a middle school kid, you shouldn't expect those kind of element exist in this manga.
Okay, I'll stop blabbering with hentai (mind you, I NEVER OBSESSED WITH HENTAI!!!!). The storyline is pretty easy to understand even though there are some part of the storyline reveals each past. But still, it's fairly straightforward storyline which I like it. Obviously, this manga also has many battles just like Flame of Recca but the only difference is the battle scene is mild compared to Flame of Recca. If you don't like violence, this manga is perfect for you.
One of the thing I really love with this manga is it has a lot of ARM with unique design and functions and some of the ARM resembles silver accessories that I used to see in Silver Accessories magazine. This is the thing that I would like to ask Anzai-sensei whether he got his inspirations for ARM design from silver accessories magazine or not. I don't like silver accessories but I think the design for ARM is cool. I wish silver accessories can be just like ARM. Otherwise, I don't mind spending as long as I have a weapon in my disposal, lol.
Anyway, the artwork is a lot better than the one in Flame of Recca. I can say that the artwork looks neater and child-like compared to Flame of Recca so looking at those artwork makes it easier for me to read the manga. Not just that, the manga panel is also nicely done. Take a look at yourself here:
Well, this manga is different than Flame of Recca but it's still a great manga. I personally love this manga as much as I like Flame of Recca. This manga is a must read whether you are a fan of Nobuyuki Anzai or not.
