Story 7/10
The premise to series is as follows: The is an evil Magician named Animus who is trying to destroy the world with an object called the Biscuit Hammer. To stop this, a girl is given the title of princess and is given 12 knights to combat Animus and his golems. The twist is that the princess only wants to stop Animus so she can destroy the earth herself.

The premise is both simplistic and interesting at the same time. My issue with the story as a whole, is that while it is interesting, a good chunk of the story feels like fluff, or padding if you will. This is a series that would have been better off as 40 chapters, not 65. A lot of the chapters tend to be "defeat the golem, now here is some filler for you". Mind you, this issue really doesn't come up until chapter 25 or so, but it is still an issue none the less, and takes away from the story, as there are times you will forget the princess even wants to destroy the world, or that she is even a character.

Characters 7/10

Speaking of characters, another issue the series goes through is giving us an interesting start to each characters plot, but not concluding it. You get this interesting character backstory for most of the characters, and the series goes nowhere with it. It just "gets resolved" in an anticlimactic matter.

Yuuhi, which in this reviewers opinion, can be called the only main character, is our protagonist He does not want to fight, and sees no reason to risk his life to save a world that he hates. Upon meeting the princess and learning of her goals, he decides to help her destroy the earth. Yuuhi is the only character I felt had a complete character development. Every other character had an issue, and had it resolved in 10 pages. To me, this made Yuuhi pretty much carry the manga on his own. If it wasn't for him, I probably would have dropped this manga towards the halfway point, as the padding became more and more apparent.


Art 7/10

The art is very simplistic. The characters themselves look fine, however the backgrounds and attacks look very bland. It gets to a point where entire pages look the same as previous pages, as everyone does the same attacks over and over, and the backgrounds are similar for pretty much every fight scene.

Enjoyment 8/10

I enjoyed the series a lot. The opening 20-25 chapters really caught my interest and made me want to keep reading, as did some of the later chapters. My enjoyment of the series was only hampered by the obvious padding towards the middle, along with the aforementioned issues with character development.

Overall 7/10
Overall I would recommend the series to anyone looking for a more comedy based shounen series. If you don't mind the battles not being the focus of a series, or want a interesting protagonist.
