Review: Magia the Ninth Vol. 1

Magia the Ninth Vol. 1 by Ichiya Sazanami
My rating: 2 of 5 stars

Too fast paced.
Even if is only two volumes long, the pace it makes the plot look convoluted and it doesn't manage to catch the reader's attention to it.

The concept of famous historical composers doing extraordinary things is not a new one. I've seen other stories that are good at using that type of premise but, in this manga, it doesn't work that well.

I know that I'll sound repetitive, but the Solomon and demons card that is used here, would have been a hit if it wasn't the main plot of another, older, ongoing manga that it's already around 12 to 15 vols.

Not everything is bad or cliche, I liked some of the characters, even if some of them need more development.

Sadly, I don't think that I'll be bying the last volume of this story.
