mxkorbs's manga / #⭐⭐⭐⭐(373)

Very fast paced, but honestly I'll take that over a story that drags on any day (๑•̀ㅂ•́)و✧

It's nothing new, but it's not bad. ML is the typical mysterious and strong ikeman and FL is a bullied "not like other girls" character. I would've liked her past to be a little more fleshed out with it showing why she fell in love with her childhood friend instead of just telling us she did, because her past had a lot of potential to be gut-wrenching (instead it just felt like filler exposition). Maybe they'll touch up on both leads' pasts more later. Either way, if this turns out to be just a happy married life manga, it's going to be so unmemorable and boring (￣∇￣") This story is very new so I'm gonna give it the benefit of the doubt that it'll get more interesting as it goes on

MC is an S-rank sacred beast tamer who was sent with his childhood friend (also S-rank) to the capital city to serve the country and in return, help their village prosper. After much training (and money from the king), he finally summoned a sacred beast. However, it's appearance was a small lizard while the other beast tamer hatched a griffin, so he was exiled from the kingdom and the other tamer requested his friend's hand in marriage. His sacred beast turned out to be a dragon with a human form, and he has a purely parental relationship with her (so far. mangas can do weird shit sometimes) I like the premise and the characters seem interesting, but it's still very new so the story can go in any direction lol. I am hopeful tho!!

The author tends to over explain things that don't need explaining and completely drop the ball on other parts. Best example: they never explained AT ALL why he—the top scoring student—was put in the worst class and why the uber-skilled wind mage is also there. But they also tell us a ton of super simple exposition as if we can't infer things from the numerous, clear hints they gave and draw the conclusion ourselves. Oh well. I'm starting to get pretty into the story tho. They finally told us why he is trying to get stronger (summary just said he went to the academy to get information, which he wouldn't need to surpass his old self to do) and gave a long-term threat for the story. Only took 20 chapters lol. Tbh, if I had started reading this a couple months ago, I would have dropped it. Fun read but not top-tier :)
