    The animation is more well handled than the narrative

    For the most part the animation is hands down some of the best hand to hand combat I've ever seen. However there are parts when the majority of the body or whatever is moving will drop out of the frame in order for them to show a close up on something else, leaving you with only the slightest clue as to what is currently happening. But the most unforgivable part is the handling of the narrative. The first half of episode one demonstrated a remarkable ability to expand bare bones writing into original and extensively detailed scenes. However there was also a pattern of condensing the more detailed parts of the original story into barely comprehensible, hyper-condensed scenes with next to no incite into the characters. The exposition as to how the characters arrived at their current states takes the form of single sentences mentioned in passing. This may be a consequence for the short episode count.

    I didn't expect that.

    This show does have that quality to become a prominent show. Animation and characters are eye perfect. Especially Jin, Mo-Ri his eyes are amazing.

    Opening and ending soundtracks are realy really good.

    I hope this anime continue for a long time. Right now I'm going to start Manhwa. I'm sure it's great too.

    The show gets you hooked on the main characters and who they are. The backstories of the characters written good and sadly. The God of High School can make you go through the emotions. It is a great anime it has comedy, action and emotional. I would recommend this anime. You Should watch it.

    Terrible Plot and Poor Pacing.

    This anime has an amazing soundtrack, excellent animation, nice though overly done character designs, and good synergy among the three lead characters.

    But... The plot is terribly disjointed and a frankenstein of so many other cartoons/animes out there. The entertaining bouts disintegrated into a show of powers half-way through and took away the magic of the semi-traditional martial arts that were on display. If you find yourself watching it and enjoy the parts that it does right in the first half of season one, then stop at episode eight or nine and imagine a fitting conclusion.

    This whole season was pretty enjoyable despite being a speedrun.

    Some nice fight scenes and very good animation aren't enough to salvage a bland cast and a story that is all over the place. It's so rushed it feels like it started at episode 63. This should be my kind of anime, but I just can't get into it. I think mostly the problem is adapting an almost 100 chapters in a 13 episode anime, if you like some cool animation and fights scenes this is for you. I wanna recommend the manwa but if you read the manwa it's very slow paced, if you watch the anime it's very fast paced, so it's kinda complicated, I guess it depends your preference.

    Everything was perfect... But then...

    I really expected a lot but because they decide to rush things the adaption did dissappoint me.To keep it short they totally blew the adaption in comparison to the webtoon but I think it in conclusion wasn't all that bad.A 7/10 ig.But still it could have been one of the best this year if they did not rush it.The only problem with this series is that it messed up the pace but everything else was good.
