#MAGIKA NO KENSHI REVIEW SERIES#

But I could've sworn you'd read it all so far because you also seemed to know about that scene at the beginning of Volume 22 (before Ravel came in with news about the International Rating Game Tournament). Perhaps I'm just a bit emotional.just a bit You're still not caught up on DxD? Where did you stop reading? Mind if I give you some quick spoilers of what's happened (via PM, of course (can't derail this thread any further)) after you tell me what Volume you stopped at? Though I'll also have to refresh my own memory of what's happened first. Hang on, it sounds like I'm leaving for good or something. You might not think much, but you work has definitely brought a lot of joy to many people, myself includedĪnd thanks to the folks around here for so many fun moments when we discuss Magika. Massive props and thanks for for your efforts. *btw, vol 10 cover is my favourite (#Ilya), but Koyuki's pose is the coolest *Īhh.I can keep going, but perhaps this is it for this post *sob*īut don't get me wrong, I might still come back right away to write some more if there is anything I forgot this timeĪll in All, thank you Mihara-sensei for bringing us Magika, all the best and good luck with your future work (and you'd be damned sure I'll be keeping an eye on it ). The dresses are amazing and all, but the poses sealed the deal for me. I think I have mentioned how the covers caught my eyes right away How on earth did he come up with all those crazy designs? Holy cr*p how he has improved over the span of the series. The pinnacle is Ragnarok, Kazuki and the gang were not fighting against mindless beasts with 1 main antagonist *cough*dxd*cough, all side are trying to outsmart and outmanoeuvre the other parties, thus it is both grounded and engaging.Īnd of course, I have to mention the illustrations by CHuN. In Magika, there are no big gigantic battles with thousands of soldiers like in 'traditional' war, but like I said, it is just different. _ Ragnarok: of course, the greatest challenge for Kazuki as the commander of 100 strong fighters. _ civil war: I absolutely loved it when Kazuki ambushes the other side with his ingenuity on how 'magical warfare' should be fought _ tournament arc: where we can see how Kazuki managed to bring out the most of his team

Mihara-sensei does have a knack for writing group battles. Magika filled in the gap that I had always despaired over, who knew both romance AND ecchi can work *mindblown*Īlrighty, moving on from the harem (but trust me, I can keep on raving about it ), there is another unexpected pleasant surprise from Magika: Group battle In other words, 'all sizzle and no steak' So many times, the harem MCs fall into a pithole of 'I'll protect you!' or 'We will be together forever!' but no action (aside from beating up the bad guys). TL DR: Kazuki came to embrace his position as the Harem King, he knows for a fact the being lovers is more than just 'protecting', and finally he actually acts like a real boyfriend/partner to his girls Not only my opinion have NOT changed, they are now even more definitive Here are some of my previous posts on Magkia. Thankfully I was intrigued enough to pick up the first chapter (hell, I even tolerate 3 vols of Infinite Stratos for crying out loud ) After a wow moment, I scrolled down and 'Holy Everything has been up to date!?' (thanks again ).įurthermore, what was also very striking is that each vol cover was a different characters.with vastly different designs, and despite holding a sword, all of them had different poses *mind-blown*īut then I read the description.oh dear 'Not a another one of those LN where the MC is the only male in school!'. Well, Arthur(ia) was on the cover of vol 11 so she was the first to appear before my eye.

=> My next move was to visit the 'holy site' of LN aka 'baka*****'

=> 'Okay, so this series is going strong', I thought I looked through the LN subforum and there it is - a thread named 'Magika no Kenshi to Basileus', with quite a lot of views and replies Sure the harem route was not something new by that time, but someone mentioned 'Magika' with the phrase '.pushing for the harem.' I was immediately intrigued (guess hormone was still going strong in my vein eh ).

At the time, I was seriously burnt out by the c*ckbl*cking antics in DxD, thus had to put the series on hold (still hasn't caught up yet). I was randomly going through the LN thread and stumbled upon a discussion on 'true harem' (I believe it was in Madan thread lol). God it is trash, the only thing that save the manga is the outstanding art thanks to ChunĪbout the story nothing to say apart the fact that it is a basic magic school settings and holy, it is generic.Ahem, It has been roughly 14 months since I got into Magika (can't believe it has already been over a year ) right after bakapervert-dono finished vol 11.
