i like but it feels rushed and can be confusing. i like the art and the sword character. i wish it just focus on them.

Even world building and art were great...
Tag's were somewhat misleading. The story was jumping too much it was a bit confusing. MC 99% of the time was either crying or running away while being used by everyone however they want and still he acted towards some of them like they were his family. And last but not least is ending with was terrible unsatisfying

Sojiro888 pretty much sums it up, story falls into peaces rapidly and the reader is thrown into a chaos where it's hard to grasp the sense of anything of whats happening and left with just random chars doing random things for no apparent reason in a building up mayhem, the author didn't even spend one chapter trying to explain and develop the setting and the importance of the events, characters, factions, weapons, etc., It's worth to notice too that the flow of the drawing is terrible, the fights are hard to understand and this also add to the general sense of confusion I got from this soon to be forgotten (by me) series.

This is one of the worst manga I've ever read to the end (just because it's a prequel to CotA) and now I really regret the time wasted. The pacing is all over the place, starting with a generic MC getting generic powers and generic companion in a generic journey to getting stronger while a generic villain is setting a generic mysterious plot ... except the companions are cast aside and become utterly irrelevant, second challenge suddenly spins out of control and before the character ever even learned the name of his power or had a single real training session we are in the middle of apocalyptic world-shattering events. The villainous plot becomes irrelevant as the villain completely fail on his own without anyone really noticing he did anything and someone else stepping in out of nowhere with a completely new plot.

Huge events happen all the time except we only know they're huge because we're told so afterward, so it falls flat. The characters are inconsistent and badly developed, the fight scenes are confused and confusing, many interesting details are introduced only to be completely ignored for the rest of the story, new events keep popping in out of nowhere, and through it all characters keep talking about how incredibly important some items and events are when we have NO IDEA what they are talking about.

It's hard to care about anyone or anything in this story. You really shouldn't waste your time with this.

Immortal Regis suffers from bad pacing, poor development, deus ex machina, and tons of other story problems. However, its sequel, Cavalier of the Abyss, has a much improved story (no doubt due to the writing assistant the author hired for developing the sequel). The sequel is good enough that it can stand alone as well, so don't waste your time with IR and go read CotA instead

I would end up going on a 5000 word rant but that is not something I want to waste my time on for this.

One point I would like to address is that the story falls apart because the main character despite hating the girl that made him undead with a passion and with every reason to to hate her.... is magically in love with her.... how?
That is just poor writing at it's best. Honestly if I didn't know any better I would of believed Dal Young wrote this.

I really liked the story and the premise. Very interesting. Yes the character development is lacking but I think the snappy pacing of the story made up for it. The characters weren't bad and some of them were actually pretty good. The action was pretty good especially with its gothic feel.

Its obvious that the manga-ka was is in a hurry here. Perhaps to do with the Korean manhwa market. But that's just what I think. Its not 'GREAT' but well worth a read.

It gets better with Cavalier of the Abyss

It is bad. On nearly every point : the fights are chaotics, you never truly understand what happens, no single charcater is likeable, and that's logical since there is no character developpment, everything takes place in somethind like 6 days, it is rushed, first everyone wants one magic stone and then every one wants the other, and I think that's it.

Now good points : hmmm, can't really find one but at least I didn't get bored at all, I read it fast. Also I quite like depore, a bit possessive and sympathetic.

Anyway I don't recommend it, unless you are really in the demon fights thing. There are better shounens out there.
