Reborn to Master the Blade: From Hero-King to Extraordinary Squire ♀ · review
Overall: 4/10 [Skip] (10 chapters read) This manga isn't bad exactly, because it introduces some elements into the story by chapter 10 that are intriguing. But it isn't very good either. The main problem here is that the MC is overpowered from the time she is a baby. She possesses knowledge of magic that no one else on the planet has. As a result, there is no training arc, there are no tough moments or periods of struggle. The lack of tension in this battle manga is pretty central to why I got bored so easily. This is basically a battle manga, since all the otherelements of the isekai or iyashikei genre are missing. So you can imagine for yourself how disappointing it is when the major battles have no stakes involved.
The second problem is that the characters are mediocre. The MC is a battle-junkie who craves to fight strong opponents. That's fine. But then why settle down in one place instead of challenging yourself by going across the world? The other characters are barely given any character development or personality either. The whole thing seems very half-hearted to me, like the mangaka started out with the idea but stopped caring about it half-way.
Where the manga does well is the art work. Nothing memorable, mind you, or particularly artistic. Everything meets the standards of moe. The MC is cute and fights in impractical clothes. Yawn.
Overall, I'd say you can skip this. I hope that the new elements introduced recently help challenge the MC in the coming arcs. If that happens, perhaps I may change my mind about this series. After all, better manga have taken longer than this to get off the ground, and 10 chapters in the long run is nothing.
