[Read:9 chapters + 1 Omake= 10 chapters on MU]
[Specialty: Hope + Mystery + Plot]

This series is interesting, it started off with something like a game like "Chaosic Rune", and was quite tragedic. However, it steered away from the dark path that "Freezing" took, which was constantly filled with tragedies. From chapter 2 or 3 onwards I began feeling that it would be one of my fav adventure-filled series.
Note:Abt 55 pages for first chapter, after that abt 40 and abv.

Story:10
I give 10 for story+potential and 9 for story up till now.
The story is quite interesting. It reminds me of many different storylines I've read b4, but I couldn't exactly tell which part reminds me of which manga. 1 is like "Chaosic Rune", where damage taken is transferred to somewhere (Read the mangas for more info).

Empathy is quite strong in this series. This series got off to a tragedic start, and from the beginning a lot of mysteries started happening, including future possible potential. Till chapter 9 (or or 10) it's still quite murky, but at least it's clear it didn't have a heavy/very heavy mood like "Freezing". Hope is also a strong factor, even the reader can "believe" in the future of the characters in the story. A risk is though... the story may have trouble covering all the mysteries started.

Another good point is good usage of pages. Instead of increasing characters or involving school life scenes, this manga focuses on a few characters (and thus more character development) and increases action scenes and plot.

Plot is really clear right from the beginning few chapters... although some mysteries may interfere with plot if handled badly. But, some parts of the story do look strange though.

I like the story presentation a lot, some of it looks like a show itself.

Art:7
Lots of action scenes, nice expressions, quite a few colour pages in some first few pages of a few chapters. Detail is there when needed and I could understand near all panels.

Character:9
Murky but clear that there is potential. At least 5 characters in there are shrouded in mystery... the main character is likeable but realistic, and is very unique. Characters' emotions were depicted well most of the time, and the reader should be able to feel with most characters most of the times, sometimes even with villains.

The problem is with the side characters, most of them are developed a best a little only, so their actions are usually a mystery. But to be honest, the character cast is quite special. And the mangaka didn't expand the characters mostly involved too much ,which is a good thing, since the mangaka used a lot of pages to develop bonds between the main characters instead.

Enjoyment:9
Suspense is overflowing... but it's really interesting to see the plot deepen.
Reading this is like watching a show about this hero who wants to revolutionize. Really interesting.

Overall:9
This manga is very good for me, serious when it needs to and funny when it's not. More importantly, the focus on empathy and hope makes this manga more than a "1-dimensional" storyline.

If you like this series I recommend Chaosic Rune or Freezing, though they are both heavy in their atmosphere.
