You know what I really wanted to read? A treasure hunt story. Because I LOVE treasure hunts. Treasure hunts are awesome. Heck, my favorite Disney movie is Treasure Planet.

And I DID get my treasure hunt story... For about five minutes till the manga changed from a fun and interesting new sort of manga tale to the same fighting crap I’ve read a hundred times before! Sure, the first 2 books were fun and had three pretty great main characters with potential, but the story arc that came after they left the first dungeon was just so... Dull. No treasure hunt, just a whole lot of fighting. And everyone kept having those reaction shock faces people have in mangas that it eventually lost it’s meaning and ended up making me more and more annoyed as I kept reading it. I gave up after book 6.

Much potential, but poorly executed. That’s all I have to say.

That’s one down, 25 to go.

I’m Waezi2, and thanks for wasting time with me.
