That final battle had everything! sacrifices, realizations, true frienship and found family, heart-stopping moments, and a lot of tears!! It was an epic journey and I'm proud of the growth all of the characters went through, even that subtle romance made me giddy. this manga had some of my new favorite characters, intriguing magic system tying it to religion and the seven deadly sins in an interesting way, and the politics of this world didn't bore, which was a surprise.
the characters were wonderful and fleshed out, not all of them were black or white, which made them feel like real human beings. just loved this series with all of my heart...more
