I'll try not to give any spoilers, but the relationship established between the two main characters is controversial. I'll give this story another chance to see how it develops.
I love the art style though, and the slow pacing makes the story very immersive.

I really like the concept of this story , it made me want to invest more time in the series. The story in this volume was quite fast paced. A very good first volume, definitely reccomend people give this series a try.

I wanted to read this because I saw there’s an anime version and I wanted to read it first. I wasn’t sure what to expect, but I really like it so far. It’s an interesting concept and I like seeing the various worlds they visit, like the dragon world. I also found it contained a lot of things that were personally relevant for me, such as the adder stone necklace. I’m very interested to see how this continues!
