I guess this account also still kinda exists, huh? Anyway. Let me rant a little bit about a Light Novel I am reading at the moment.
I really gave Blade & Bastard a good shot (reading through volume 3 at the moment). But somehow the story of them does not really inspire me or keep me hooked on them.
I like Goblin Slayer way more when talking about Kumo Kagyu’s Series.
Tbh the Combi of Kagyu and so-bin for the illustrator made me really happy. I liked Goblin Slayer and so-bins Art is very stunning. And still is in Blade & Bastard.
The Writing though I dunno how to feel about.
There is at the moment like one character I my feel something for (Raraja the thief, cause he has some actual story to him),
another character I absolutely hate. tbh, I hate Garbage, firstly the name is… yuk. Then she just behaves too much like a feral dog, which she might how much she is making dog noises and not talk at all otherwise. I know you portrait stuff differently. But I just… AAAAAAAA can’t read her at all.
The other chracters (In this case Iarumas, the corpse hauler and Berkanan the mage) I don’t really feel particular about.
I just feel very sorry for Berkanan, Kagyu loves to harp around the fact just how big she is. She is “lumbering around” or”trying to sink into herself which does not really work because of her height”. I get it bro she is big.
Also the world I also don’t care about. Its so sad that this is a series from one of my favorite authors…
Atleast like halfway through the book gets some sort of plot going I guess? Still not that sure if I wanna continue the series after this book.
