I was thinking about something the other day and how I generally tend to dislike stories where there are too many characters to follow and I always chucked it off to me wanting to focus on the adventure of one main character but at the same time, I mostly dislike the "chosen one" narrative so, it just puzzled me that I couldn't put into words my own taste in shonen....
Anyway, reading this story and loving every character design and the detailed backgroud stories as well as the development of so many characters, I've come to realise that there is a way to do this that I love. I just don't like it when stories marginalize MC and take entire arcs focusing on other people while MC is nowhere to be seen, I like to see the bits and pieces of everyone's stories developing at the same time and this story perfectly fits that. Of course, the main focus will always be Iruma but everyone else have their moments in which they shine
