3.0

A stronger outing than volume 1 but not up to the greats yet.

This series gives me heavy Bleach vibes mixed with maybe Yu Yu Hakusho in some ways. Basically our main character dies in the first chapter in this book. It was semi-spoiled in the last book as the title suggested "SOMEONE WILL DIE NEXT VOLUME" and so he does. But he's our main hero, and he has to come back, right? But the demon makes a deal with him that might not be worth coming back to life afterall.

Overall, it's pretty fun. The series lands on some comedic moments pretty well. The characters feel slightly cliche but I'm starting to warm up to them. The art is pretty solid and some of the fights are fucking awesome looking. Also the actual plot is starting to form and it's thanks to that this is a stronger volume than the last.

A 3.5 out of 5.
