I have no idea where this one is going…
Things I Like
- Raika is a character that you really sympathise with
- Wasn’t expecting Narnia to be referenced lol
- The hell gate executions are quite impressive
Things That Could Be Improved
- 10 chapters and still no hints on the ‘cost’ of Asura’s key
- The girl character just completely disappeared?
Verdict
I feel quite conflicted on this one. I feel like Asura’s key is kinda wish-fulfilment-y and a bit insulting to people who are victims tof severe bullying… But at the same time I really want him to save Raika and Raika’s mum 😣
I think I will give it another 10 chapters because I really do want to know what happens to Raika, but I also feel like Raika is what could make this series quite interesting. The way I see this potentially going – Raika is saved by Asura but then is conflicted in trying to stop Asura from essentially selling his soul to save people from their situations. That dynamic if done well could really pull at the heartstrings and add a level of suspense. I’m thinking Death Note style, you know what Light is doing is wrong but you still don’t want him to get caught 😅 In Asura’s case, him getting caught isn’t the big deal (no one would believe it) but more what will happen to Raika if he gets on Asura’s bad side, even though he’s trying to help Asura himself.
Buuuut, this could just be wishful thinking on my part haha. We shall see in 20 chapters time.
