I read through this manga a few times before it ended. Maybe it was just me and I was misreading the clues, but it seemed to me that the identity of the Demon Lord with the wings was somehow the main character. Like some sort of timeline double.
When it ended with a nobody, I was more disappointed than if it it were someone else that was already an established character.
It was anticlimactic and I kind of feel like the clues sprinkled in the last 100 chapters just don't point to someone random face. I don't know. Oh well. （￣へ￣）
Also: There is an anime in development for this title. It was slates for July, but has been delayed.
Based on this ending, I think I'll pass on it, but for those who don't mind it, look it up!
Yea, ending wasn't the greatest. Though I guess not all manga can be stellar in every way. Or even great in every way. Overall this one was above average, but not fantastic. With the ending feeling like it just slowly fizzled out.
I actually ended up doing a little bit more reading into this and I found out that people were already aware of the ending at the beginning of this year. From what I saw, a huge majority of the fans of the light novel and later, the manga (from the raws) were really disappointed in the ending.
Apparently I wasn't the only one who saw the foreshadowing of the main character ultimately being the antagonist. There's a rumor that the author of the light novel grew tired of writing the light novel and just went a completely different direction toward the end.
Sorry. I didn't mean HUGE majority, but enough were upset that a few articles were written about it and not just threads on LN forums complaining.
Honestly I thought "is the big baddie the OP from the future or some alternate universe or something?" as well at a few points in the story. With how hidden and mysterious the big baddie was I expected some big reveal. Instead he turned out to just be a random rogue experiment from the past. A nobody we'd never heard of or seen before from the perspective of the manga.
Not only that, the entire confrontation between the big baddie and the hero started and was resolved in one chapter and a few pages. Feels like a rushed ending, so I wouldn't be surprised if the author was just done with it and quickly wrote an ending into it.
Exactly. Oh well. Maybe the anime will take it a different direction. ┑(￣Д ￣)┍
All I have to say is BRAVO! This was actually a really good read and I really enjoyed it. I've read many smut comics and none of them hit the same way this did. Good characters, good story and the naughty bits were contextually significant.
I found myself cracking up so many times reading this. It was great. 10/10 for me and that's a first, for a smut anyway.
For the love of God, please make this into an anime!
With all its lovely Ito-inspired moments.
