Come read RAPPA, we have:
- the main character: a handsome - no, gorgeous! - swordsman, overpowered to a ridiculous extent, traveling alone in search of his past;
- the only woman character, who seems to be indifferent towards that swordsman, but actually is interested in him. she's obviously going to be sexualized, because why the hell not;
- male characters, none of them are even close to that perfection that the lone swordsman is, and that's if they're not much, much worse;
- action scenes that don't feel engaging, because we all know the MC is too powerful for a defeat or even slightest of failure, so he'll
...
be good;
- 'believe in yourself!' talk right in the middle of a fight;
- worldbuilding, which is just a mashup of things the author likes.
Huh, I think I've just explained almost every volume of Vampire Hunter D... Well, the author is the same, so that figures, I guess.
In all seriousness tho, it felt like such a waste of time... If it wasn't just 17 chapters, I'd dropped it after the first volume. Which is not the most positive thing to say. Everything ends too soon and feels unfinished, action scenes make no sense and are hard to comprehend at times and because of that mashup I've mentioned, characters' designs are so random and out of place. I'd even say, that Vampire Hunter D is better in terms of its worldbuilding and story, or the mystery of MC's existence and his power. Which is not much, still.
