Side notes: As I's looking for something to read I came across this manga and 'cause people seemed to like it more than in one forum I added it onto my list. Still my reading hasn't progressed that fast as it'd be possible.... so my knowledge about all the characters are vague. Still the general feel for the story is that it's action packed with multiple time skips. People that have read the manga comment about it's plot and comedy which are the strong points of the manga. Things that are left out are artistic tastes, some like it some don't... So I'm now checking that part out.^-^b
P.S. I've read the first 10 chapters and it feels normal shounen manga with a clean art style. R+ for mild nudity (just a bit) and do remember this is a seinen manga. Oh, and not all chapters are available online if not going to Crunchyroll and probably paying for some lil money to be able to read the story there but I think it's some kind of monthly fee and it enables you to read other licensed manga too and s´watch licensed animes.^-^ points: 5/10
