The Sacred Blacksmith Vol. 10

Overall a good series The serious over all was good, though the ending was pretty weak. Guessing though the light novels covered what was mentioned at the end.. OK I am a bit on the fence on this one. I like the concept and the artwork and story are generally pretty good. However the "fight scenes" often take up several pages just to show a couple swipes of the sword, so to me there is a lot of wasted space. I also wouldn't mind a bit more humor thrown in. There is a touch of fan service, but only a few images. I will likely pick up the second volume to see where it goes, but am hoping for a bit of improvement to really gr. "If you like Berserk try this one" according to Stale Meat. The Sacred Blacksmith is really entertaining. The art is very good and the story is unique. I had a Berserk felling while reading it. It's not as dark and violent as Berserk but it has demons and sword fighting like Berserk. If you like Berserk style stories give this a try.
