I’m not quite sure what to make of Ruwanda. It’s hard to hate him completely because even though he’s committing horrible acts it’s clear that’s only due to the fact that he’s a child who was raised terribly. I hope he learns that murdering people for fun is bad, but I have a feeling this will be more of a character regression story than a character growth story. I’m not too put off by that though since having the main character be the villain is an idea that’s not done enough. Plus, I find it interesting that he still craves human connection while killing practically everyone who gets close to him. I want to see what the mangaka does with those two conflicting goals of his. Gandalf!” I cry and Gandalf lifts up his staff, letting out a blinding light as the horses impact the ork army, trampling them and slashing at any that are left with their weapons. First, it was Kevin. Then Miranda. Constant tragedies and yet nobody can find the people who started this. Having retrieved a certain object, Ruwanda meets a boy named Ivan who is both murderer and thief, who takes him to Lord Winter’s hideout. This turns out to be a den of assassins who work for the lord, with an eye to eventual higher power and control over society.

Plot-wise, the first 3 or so volumes were pretty average. The dialogue was the same cringe pretentious "is it bad to kill people?" drivel that you've read in every other psychological shonen horror manga (though, this one isn't actually horror, it's just gory). It has some weird battle shonen chapters, some almost-horror chapters, some drama chapters, all crammed into around 15 chapters to make an incohesive edgy hodgepodge. But, it wasn't horrible. After leaving the organization, Ruwanda wanders around in the forest with his thoughts. Language: English Words: 1,075 Chapters: 1/1 Kudos: 6 Hits: 28 A beautiful girl. One of her parents is a doctor, and she grew up in a wealthy family. She doesn't feel guilty when hunting, and enjoys killing animals." [4]I keep repeating the word "time", but that's because I really feel like that's the main problem here. I know the author wanted to show as much as they could with what time and power they had. However, in trying to show both Rwanda's past and present, while also trying to give attention to other characters, even minor ones, everything ended up feeling rushed, and the pacing was awkward even when it wasn't trying to rush. Had it been a lenghtier manga, there would have been more time to properly develop every plotpoint and character. Maybe we would get to see more of Rwanda's childhood and his time at the hitman organization would've had more of an impact on him. Even the last arc could've been more enjoyable once we actually connected with the new characters, even if it would still have its flaws. Yes. It’s like I’m watching everything through this red veil” an ork stirs nearby, not quite dead. Without even looking away from Legolas I pull a knife from my belt and send it spinning into the ork’s heart. it being only 25 chapters long, it tries its hardest to show the whole picture of Rwanda's story while also giving some spotlight to the other characters, but it ultimately has no time to truly develop them, which is not surprising, as it barely has enough time for its own protagonist in the first place. First of all, I'm the type of person who like character development. I won't read manga that is "killing for the sake of killing" or "This character already evil since birth". But I see this manga is not like that

Mystery Doors of the Magical Land • The Giant Woman! • Red Fog of Terror • Everlasting Memories • Ghost Eraser I agree on the first part (it make sense), but it can really favor you, for exemple you have a psi soldier, it can do mindspin and then use another move, since targets lose will when injured it means you have a higher chance of doing something to it. I see some people complaining about the characters bringing up family and love, but I honestly feel like these are genuinely important ideas to be explored here, with the focus on Rwanda's upbringing and what brings each character to kill. There's also a short discussion about whether attachment makes you weaker or stronger, and it would've been nice to see Rwanda figure this out by himself through his connections to characters like Ivan and Macalo. But, of course, none of this gets explored past surface level, and none of the questions brought up in the later arc are any better. I'm a follower of the author, so I'm writing this as a fan who's also critical of their work. I'm quite passionate about this one, so this is a lengthy review, sorry.

edgy worldview, I was willing to read through it. I thought that From the Red Fog might be a gorefest with a villain protagonist who outsmarts everyone.
