complex

I’m sure a lot of people can agree that as the story went on it got increasingly complicated and harder to follow. I personally don’t mind, I think the author is very good at balancing an extremely likeable cast with an interesting plot. The world-building feels incredible to me, I think the post-apocalyptic feeling comes through really well. The biblical theme is also really interesting. Earlier there was a good balance of interpersonal relationships/issues as well as plot, it’s starting to get a little more plot-heavy now, which I’m a little disappointed by considering how much I love the cast. It’s still extremely well executed, just lacking in my own personal preferences. A lot of stories nowadays usually sacrifice plot for likeable, well-written characters, and vice versa. I don’t get that vibe at all from ons, and it’s been consistent in this balance. While the over-complexity is a little bit off-putting, I don’t think that constitutes as “bad,” just requires a lot more paying attention than it used to. Still a great manga that I’ve loved for years

    exactly! it's my kind of cup of tea. complicated plot always make sht interesting and it excites me.. I'm tired of reading mangas where main character is overpowered and will beat any enemy then later new enemy will appear and mc will beat em again easily.. so ons is really refreshing for me
