i followed the story pretty well and it wasn't well put together but i still enjoyed it to whatever extent it had and to the guy who made that negima comment i find that offensive since negima is my fav manga and the fanservice is mostly in the beginning volumes compare volume 1 to volume 14 and you'll think they're 2 completely different stories

If it weren't for the anime and the wikipedia page, I don't think I would understand this manga very well.
The story line is alright... LOTS of fan service (which is alright for me... maybe not others).

It's a good read when you have nothing better to do. But I would much rather recommend the anime over the manga.. which is something I rarely do.

 The worst, stay away

This mange is the worst garbage i have read in the last 10 years(I have seen horrible anime like MD Geist and Urotsukidoji watched "line crossing" movies like Cannibal Holocaust and they are nothing compared to this) and it gets even worse as it goes along.
For example a major villain later on is Eva Braun(Hitlers wife) who is a immortal lesbian who rapes younger clones of herself to death to stay alive. I don't get it eater.
No research went into making this manga. The religious and historical facts are all wrong and Germany is presented as a country that looks like it is visually stuck in the middle ages. (I am from Germany by the way and am part russian so this burns double for me.)
I hope that the abysmally low average rating at for example animenewsnetwork.com supports my own rating here.

Please don't support it with your money and by something good like Berserk, Vagabond or Blade of the Immortal. These mangas are also "mature" but in a good way and don't celebrate the rape of underage schoolgirls like this piece of trash. Seriously this manga is rape play the comic book.
Also, this series is a shonen manga in japan (like for example naruto), so it is suited for all ages. Very classy japan.
Here is to another 15 Volumes and my braindeath.

 It was... entertaining?   
Rating: 7.5 / 10.0

There were SO many bad things about this manga, but somehow, it managed to pull off a fairly entertaining story nonetheless. I was quite honestly surprised... and no, it's not one that relies solely on big boobs. I suppose if you were really into those the entertainment factor would skyrocket, though.

So what's bad about it?

Well, like other people have mentioned, there's occasionally a huge disconnect between chapters and scenes. Sometimes you just won't have a clue where you are, when in the timeline it is, and what on earth anyone is doing. It's jarring.

Secondly, the Anime Catholicism is somehow strangely offensive even if you come in prepared for it. I'm more or less used to awful Japanese misinterpretations of Catholicism by now... but when I first ran across them I was like THIS MAKES NO SENSE! WHAT IS THIS?!, and this is seriously one of the weirder ones.

Furthermore, the author doesn't do a good job of the setting right at the beginning. He never really explains the structure of the Adepts and... and the other people... in a simple fashion. Wikipedia is crucial in understanding the plot, and even then it seems like things happen just so they can happen. There's a prophecy from a random book, a bunch of meaningless but cool-looking religious symbolism, a lot of Russian that is probably madly hilarious to anyone who speaks Russian... you get the picture.

Finally, as for the ecchi factor.. holy crap it was wildly disturbing. That's not to say it wasn't well-drawn, but Wildly. Disturbing. Tentacle. Things. They are there. They abound.


But for all that it somehow managed to make a good story. It was very focused, for one thing. It meandered off into side characters now and again, but for the most part it focused on really establishing a solid core group of main characters who people could sympathize with. I particularly liked Sasha and how the author occasionally lampshaded his tsundere tendencies, lol. I still have no clue what on earth he's fighting for though.

It has sprinkles of humour throughout, and the battle scenes are pretty decent and easy to follow. Mostly. The romance/character development between Sasha and Mafuyu is far more adorable and much less depraved than what you'd expect for a manga with this much sex, and was a major plus point (if you discount that Sasha is just barely legal... in Japan. Which is saying something.) The author does a decent job with recognizable characters, and doesn't fall into the Loads and Loads of Characters trope... much.

Overall it's worth a try if you're looking to kill time with a battle manga and are not easily offended.

Or if you're really looking hard for drawings of people breast-feeding, for some reason.

LMAO @ felo1's comment. XD

Oh, and @ the guy who compared it to the Big Three . . . LOL.

Anyways, despite the flaws, this manga is pretty good. Yes, there is some disconnection between chapters, and yes, there is a lot to follow for the average Wikipedia-less person, but remember the most important thing . . .



BOOOOOOOBS!!!!!

come on, the story should be more interesting. I really hope it be like naruto or big three manga, but this is to bad... also no interesting character. negima is more interesting than this manga.

Edit:

Well, the story become more and more interesting.

Lackluster story, so they added in heavy ecchiness to pull in some readers. I found it to be trash and I do love my ecchi manga, but this is garbage. It's an S&M fetish manga involving middle schoolers, if you don't care about the story and into that kind of thing then read it. If you want a good story look elsewhere.

Think of it as an artbook, forget about the whole plot and just look at the art and you will love this manga.
Now about breast feeding ...

 Disconnection

The story is interesting, the characters are neat, and the art is excellent, especially when it comes to the girls in various stages of undress. However there is frequently a feeling of disconnection from chapter to chapter that leaves me wondering if I missed one in between.
