Shiki Tsukai had eight volumes published in English by Del Rey from August 28, 2007, to September 28, 2010, with volumes 7 and 8 combined into one volume.
Oh my goodness, am I the first person to write a review for this manga? Wow! And yes, I know I've only read one volume, blah blah, but I can't find the other ones anywhere except on Amazon, so there's that.
Anyways, let's dive in!
-Story- 7/10
Listen, it has a good story. It's your typical shounen with some elements and set in the "far future," aka 2013!
-Art- 9/10
Great art! Nothing else to add here.
-Character- 6/10
Look, most of the characters are overused shounen tropes. If you're not into that, maybe skip this one.
-Enjoyment- 6/10
Wow! My first manga that I bought and wasn't badly pirated! Okay, besides that, it was pretty cool, I guess. I don't really know how thrilling it actually was, but when I first read it, it felt cool.
-Overall- 7/10
Seems good. Sure, there are a few... weird scenes every now and then, but besides that, it's cool to waste some time with!
