Normally I hate long premieres, but I think this absolutely would have benefited from a double-length episode; the pacing was solid, but the ending just felt very abrupt.
So far the plot seems pretty generic, the twists are predictable, and our hero seems like a bit of an idiot (if you’re not paid well and not good at hunting and it’s not your dream or anything, why not just get a normal job where you probably won’t die??). On the other hand, the animation was really good and I loved the fight scenes.
Ultimately I give the premiere a 3/5. I’ll give it another episode or two to get to its hook and see if I want to continue from there.
As someone that read the manwha, honestly, if you’re here for a super well written and unique story, this isn’t for you. The big draw for me was the honestly really awesome art, and just fun power fantasy moments. The story isn’t bad, it’s more just that it’s just serviceable enough to connect those moments.
