Just started checking this series out since it's anime announcement has made it the talk of the town and I gotta say...it's nothing really special. But it's also a fun read. An entertaining series that hits all the, I guess "classic"? Shounen beats and story points. It's archetypal as fuck, but thinking about it, it's refreshing in it's own way. It's not trying to subvert anything or mix up the genre like a slew of recent series, OPM, BnH, HxH (all of which I adore to death), but it has a simple charm that's keeping me somewhat invested, despite it not really taking the genre beyond well worn tropes. This series reminds me of the good ol' days of Fairy Tail before it became the series that made me realize I could grow to despise ink on paper.
