A wholesome novel, one if the best reads

ok,review (as of chapter 259,which is like chapters away from the ending)

world building - very nice,there are some of the le fantasy story races such as elfs and orcs but really the world of this novel is really unique
characters - PERFECT,all of the characters feel like they have their own personality and sh*t,and doesnt feel like they exist only for the mc or some sh*t
romance - slow,but it is pretty good
action - i guess its good enough? most battles ends rather quickly

overall,a great story really,the only complaint i have is more of a feeling realy,because like when reading other novels such as idk ri or lotm,in battles i had a anguish feeling,but in this novel i didnt really feel anything in such cases,which im not realy sure about it? the only situation that got me feeling like that is in the final battle

so i guess the author just failed to convey that feeling? or this novel in particular didnt trigger it,which idk if its bad or if its whatever

I started reading because it had the 'Kingdom Building tag', but the first volume has none of that. It's a survival race with zero explanations about anything; you're thrown into a story about gods. I had to reread several chapters to grasp a bit... by the end of the first volume, I'm like should I continue this or just drop it because it was quite exhausting...

If there's one thing that old-school manga has taught me, it's that Japanese creators have a knack for blending insanity-style humor with martial arts narratives. Despite a somewhat underwhelming storyline and run-of-the-mill characters, the art and humor more than compensate for these shortcomings.

The plot revolves around Noritaka, a first-year high school student attempting to shed his middle school reputation while trying to impress the quintessential model female student. However, after a string of fortunate events that culminate in an unfortunate misstep, the girl rejects him for being weak. Consequently, Noritaka must master martial arts not only to navigate the challenges of his school life but also to win back the affection of the girl he admires.

It's clear from the outset that Noritaka embodies the classic "weak kid turned strong" trope, offering nothing particularly new compared to other manga. The protagonist is a wimp, the love interest serves as eye candy, and the rivals are typical jock-like bullies. It’s all rather standard fare.

Nevertheless, the saving grace lies in the art style and chaotic humor. Noritaka spares no punches, emulating Go Nagai's approach of random pop culture humor with fantastic caricatures of the characters. Almost every female character except the love interest is intentionally unattractive, the villains are steroid-pumped muscle-bound jocks, and the comic even features foreigners as adversaries. The artwork itself is playful, filled with humorous references like MC Hammer nods or the exaggerated growth of the female lead's bustline, much to the delight of Noritaka's opponents. The entire comic is a satire of the shonen fighting archetype.

If you can overlook the lackluster story and derivative characters, I would recommend giving it a try. It deserves attention as a carefree example of 90s manga.
