Wizard's Soul ~Holy War of Love~

So because of her play style she would be seen as a "villian" to other characters which means I'm rooting for the "villian" in this story? I like this story even more.

Spoiler

The guy is pretty much an M. They really suit each other after all lol.

Haha, I totally get it though. A brutal, efficient, no mercy playstyle is always fun to watch. And plus, she's always been so kind and cheerful, then she gets all "serious mode" when she has to; it's like a reverse trope of the gentle, helpful man that turns badass when the situation arises.

Hmmm? I'm not sure but is this manga based off of a japanese novel?

No, this is entirely original (though I suppose it's possible the author is drawing themes and such from other literary works).

I think it was less that she didn't care about the game, and more she didn't want to be hated for her play style. No one would ever want to play with her for fun once they knew her controller deck. She cares more about her relationship with others than winning is the biggest point i got from it. Her natural play style, the one she's good at, is the controller/permission, but no one likes a controller or has fun playing against them, and she wanted people to not hate her.

 

I'm also looking forward to it. I think it's less about the card game and more about the people (notice how none of the cards were shown in detail, and there were no fancy explanations of what cards do).

 

You called it. I like the MC, especially how she will sack up and take her lumps if she thinks she deserved them. I also like how she will hand out an asskicking if that's what's on the menu for today.

Such sadistic girl.

10/10 would play again.

She be like.......

Yep, the pacing and the story is almost as good as Bonnouji, except in this one we got one real plot, so far so good mmm...

hmm... in this manga... this card game means a lot, seem like you can make a decent living from it. The guy work an entire year building those points, improving his deck and so fort. Trust me if you were good at anything and get that taken away from you even from someone you have feelings for you be in the dumps, especially probably more so from someone you like because you think they would have never done something like that... both are at fault for he saw something was off but did not bother to question and she knows how much he like the game (and probably know how hard he worked to earn those points), being friends and even liking him she could have say something just a little bit more, I can understand the hesitation in telling him everything but could have say something more than duel me for your points at stake.

 

I look forward to where this goes from here.

He's just a little butthurt after losing, I bet he'll come back around...if not THEN he is a jerk letting a freaking card game get between him and his feelings.

He will come back around eventually but not 100% until things are explained.

P.S. he thought she had no chance of winning and that it be sorta harmless game, losing was quite the shock for the poor fella what's even worse was the way he loss. It was a total crush by his crush lol

she lose on purpose to elementary kids not to broke their tiny hearts.

Gosh, that was painful to see. The girl's being ruthless for sure but she's doing it to ultimately protect her family and was definitely being desperate. The guy was ultimately hurt the most by all of this, having his crush ruthlessly take the points away from him must have hurt his pride quite a bit; the whole take all your points away wager was just too cruel, for both of them.

But the person I' m annoyed with the most is the father. Takes his daughter's hard earned money and blows it all on gambling and gets caught in a scam. What a terrible father.

Same author as Bonnouji? Sign me up.

huh mean of her. 

A girl playing control is moe and that stupid jerk doesn't deserve her

Wow, the author of Bonnouji which had a pretty mellow sweet romance with a slice of life and was funky funny.... totally unexpected turn for me. 

This manga is more tragic bittersweet love... the sweetness was kinda destroyed there when he got humiliated by the girl he had a crush on for ages and the girl annihilated the confidence of the guy she liked.

Edit: Instant follow because of the author but even if this would of been his first manga, I would of stilled followed it. This is different than Bonnouji, as usual his pacing and the way you can get into the manga is amazing but this has drama that keeps your heart clenched at times.

Can't make heads or tails of the card game (nor am I even interested, tbh), but that's a damn sad society they live in. Decent first chapter, I suppose.

Well, its not a bad intro into the CCG genre.

I just don't see this doing anything more than mimicking YuGiOh's "OH NO I'M SCRE-oh I got the one uber card I need to turn this whole thing around, GG!"

It's like Saki except with MTG. First chapter was decent, and I liked the drawing style. Gave it 4 stars for the translation. Very readable and the syntax was excellent.
