This is the worst manga I've ever read, and yes, I'm including random one-shots made by fan fic artists with 2,000 social media followers into this equation; Shogumaru is worse than those. And, to begin, I need to get something off my chest (and no, I'm not talking about the ingrown hair or the unidentified insect that bit me 3 summers ago and is now a sentient lifeform communicating with me through telekinesis): this series does everything poorly, so I won't give it a lengthy review like I do with other series, because the author didn't put any effort into this series. So, therefore, Iwill try to put as little effort into this review as possible (which is what the insect attached to my nipple is telling me).

Story: Bad, because it makes no sense, as every possible joke derails whatever excitement or build up that should be occurring. And the plot, which revolves around a pint sized boy protecting a girl, is utterly destroyed (despite having potential if you only read the synopsis) by the main character being the dumbest culmination of conundrums and annoying traits that you could possibly insert in a weekly gag manga with a barely consistent storyline. Despite being 4 feet tall, the male MC is not a short king (shout out to the short kings of mal--I'm not one of you, but I'm always looking out for your well being).

Art: Bad--and very surprising, considering this got greenlit by SJ (it doesn't even look like it'd get an A in a high school art class).

Characters: While I hate almost every slang term that's ever been created by Gen Z; the generation with record low literacy rates and falling IQ scores, I have to give them credit for the term I'm about to use: fortnite balls. These characters are literally fortnite balls.

Enjoyment: I'd rather be playing fortnite with screaming children permanently damaging my tympanic membrane (or ear drum for Gen Z kids who think I just mentioned a drug) than read this headache inducing trash.

Overall: 1--the only 1 I've ever given a series (and hopefully it'll stay that way).
