The Alpha's Little Slave

I'd like to start by saying this series ended too soon. As far as I know, it was canceled after just 7 volumes. By the end of the 6th volume, a massive climax had already unfolded. I haven't read the 7th volume yet, but I can only assume it was a "rushed job" to force some kind of conclusion to the story.  
  
Story: 8  
What initially drew me in was the story itself. It delves into themes of humanity and the natural order. In this world, there's a new food chain: ogres eat humans, humans eat livestock, and so on. And then ***spoiler alert, don't read further if you wish to avoid spoilers*** at the top are those who consume the ogres. These beings create ogres for their own survival, which is where the central conflict arises. The protagonist wants to fight for humanity, but how can it be wrong for ogres to eat humans when that's simply the nature of things? How can it be wrong for those at the top to eat ogres? Aren't humans similar in their consumption of cattle for survival?  
  
Art: 7  
The artwork is decent—nothing extraordinary, just average. The illustrations are clean and easy to follow. While the ogres tend to look alike, if not identical, the characters are drawn distinctly from one another, which is refreshing compared to mangas filled with characters who all resemble each other.  
  
Characters: 7  
Effort is made to differentiate the characters from one another. Background information on them isn't abundant, but it does exist. More could have been done to develop the characters further, especially ***spoiler*** those above the ogres. We don't get to know them well, even though they play a crucial role in the story.  
  
Enjoyment: 8  
Despite its flaws, I truly enjoyed reading this manga. It was engaging, and the story was unlike anything I've encountered before. While there are similarities to other works, each story has its unique elements. It would have scored higher if my enjoyment hadn't been slightly diminished by the knowledge that it was a canceled series. Knowing a series has been canceled often means the ending will either be rushed and unsatisfying or left open with a major cliffhanger.  
  
Overall: 7  
Though the manga features interesting characters and an original story, it becomes evident by the 6th volume that the narrative is being hurried along, leading to dissatisfaction. I must admit, I'm not particularly eager to read the 7th volume because I fear disappointment. I believe this manga had more potential, but it wasn't executed as well as it could have been.

First of all, this series is not canceled, and it did not end prematurely. It concluded appropriately with volume 7. The reason you can't find the last volume (7) in English online is that the scanlator stopped translating it. Please note that the ending is not rushed! I know Chinese, so I read volume 7 in Chinese.  

Now, let me share my review... I'll talk about the overall experience.  

I really love this kind of story. The main character has something non-human inside him, and usually, people would lose control, but he doesn't. Mikito is a genuinely good guy who sincerely wants to protect others. He embarks on a journey to find a way to return to being fully human. Due to his strong will, he doesn't give in to feeding on humans, doesn't go berserk, and even positively influences Zakuro, who initially wanted to control him.  

I thoroughly enjoyed the series; it didn't disappoint me, and I liked the ending. There are many mangas I've started reading but gave up on or put on hold because they lost their initial appeal and failed to keep me engaged. However, "Kurozakuro" kept me hooked, and I always wanted to know what would happen next.

Started great. But then about half wsy in the erros started to be hard to overlook. Not just mistypes but full-on nonsensical sentences
Then the updates stalled out the last 2 chapters seem like they're not even from the same book with completely different names

A unique form of narrative. This is intriguing, this novel almost got me sucked in. So well narrated. Keep up the good work. Fighting.
