Hey guys Damian here, hitting the late night oil with some cosplay ideas and practicing with new material. Don’t think I’m doing too bad and with D&D tomorrow it should be fun. Not really able to sleep tonight but I’ll do my best to stay up and do this review.

Review

Rating: 4.5

Okay so I had been going back to this one repeatedly at the bookstore and when I finally got ahold of it I was not expecting such a good read. As it is a 0 volume I feel it was a bit scattered, but at least by the time I reached the end it was less so. We get a mysterious young man with even even more mysterious past and when it is revealed I wasn’t too surprised, but I enjoyed it none the less. Do note this is rated as M for mature and it does have explicit content so keep that in mind. I think what got me so interested was the fact that it was Volume 0 and has a lot of story to cover, not to mention you a get a map of part if the world that this takes place in which is always a cool feature. Anyway this is a recommended read for sure esspecially if you like the fantasy genre of manga.
