Nice spread

Also I feel her personality is somewhere between Sento Isuzu and Julis-Alexia von Riessfield.
Jirou your future wife is looking at ya.
....but then again I m also waiting a moment when Rago transforms himself into hot looking girl
You know ....Yoruichi scene etc.
Are you going to destroy it with your energybeam?
The protag talks like Coldsteel the Edgehog but the art's so nice I can't help but read it.
Strongest start to a new shounen since Boku no hero.
Has all the right elements, headstrong but likable MC with great character interaction and very strong us vs the world theme.
Don't worry, this is being published in jump so it will get axed in chapter 12 or so... (Seriously, I'm scared to start reading this).
Doesn't sell, dog has two eyes.
Oh sweet merciful lord... I want more!
I like it.
This setting doesn't seem particularly conducive to a tournament arc, and I'm hoping it stays that way.
Jump SQ normally doesn't fail in the quality, really liking the series so far, specially in a monthly magazine you have the space to go more dark (not edgy but seinen) in the story and characters.
Metal Gear vibe somehow. With mononoke thing in place of mecha.
tho i hate the 'you got involved in our affairs because were useless but now you either have to come with us or you die' trope along with the secret organization with an easy going superior and honey trap subordinate, i gotta admit i'm loving the interaction between characters especially between the MC and rago.
*nods* you're right. It's just my greedy side that got too excited and already wants more lol
Edit: glad to see many people as pleased as I am here in the comment section~
Reading this is the first time I really empathized with the people who say that Bleach is just a reskin of Yu Yu Hakusho. Details and characters are different(ish), but all I can see in this is Bleach. Still, excellent start and great potential; gonna follow.
This is so gud I give this 5 stars immediately
Oh boy, this shounen stuff has got my blood pumping. I wonder how long till we get a tournament arc or whatever. Things always get better right around the tournament.
The wait is well worth it.
