Ok so I read this manga last year but at that time I rushed it without reading it properly by just seeing fighting pannels ... And it was not my fav. At that time I dropped it after some 200 chapters

I restart reading it some 2 weeks ago and myyyy gooood !!!! This is a fuckin masterpiece I mean I literally binged 500+ chapters in just 2 weeks

First of all let's talk about its world building
In the very start from showing two little slave kids with big ambitions to killing on the main character to his childhood friend having same face as the king he serve is just amazing ... Shin starts with a foot soldier and promoting to 100 soldiers commander to a general it was a great journey indeed

Secondly ,arcs ... !! If I will start praising the arcs and pace 2200 words will be nothing for sure ... I can write about it whole day litrally
Starting with amazing rebellion arc to one of the greatest arc of all time COLIATATION ARC ... Every arc was well executed

Thirdly , artstyle probably one of my fav. Artstyle after yusuke murata sensei and boichi sensei's artwork

Have a look

Fourth , let's talk about one of the biggest strong point of this manga that is characters and character dynamics ...

1. Shin and sei

Litrally one of the best character dynamics I've seen in any animanga from hating sei for killing hyou to becoming his best friend and right hand man they've come a long way .. specially when shin kill some general and achieve something in war sei's small and happy reaction always makes me so fuckin happy

Some of the best example of their friendship was shown in coliatation arc when shin cried on sei's soldiers

1. Shin and tan

From being unknown people who worked together because of situation to becoming most wholesome brother and sister ... They've come a long way indeed after keiyo campaign when tan was search for shin in between dead bodies and found him alive that was one of the most wholesome moments of the entire manga
And tan's resolve for shin was shown after she work hard and became a strategist just to help him.

1. Shin and great general ou ki

I don't even have words to describe it from meeting a great general and talking with him even after being a foot soldier to becoming his student and hire of his glave .. it was an amazing character dynamic
Obviously ou ki 's death was so. Fuckin emotional i cried ..

1. Shin and kyokai

The beautiful love story between one of the surviver of assasin clan and a slave who become a general was amazing specially the scene when shin ask kyoukai to return to them after getting her reveng because hi shin unit his her home was so wholesome I can't describe it in words .. I was on verge of tears right there ..
And how can we forget about kyokai saying "i want kids with shin" and shin replaying he has no problem with it omg I laughed so hard at that moments
