Been long time since I did this again, few whole months, I think...well...school's been busy with lots of assignment, but I figured since I can use this for my assignment as well, might as well kill 2 birds with one stone.

Summary:
This is about an orphan boy named Coud Van living with pirates who discovers a living weapon in form of a living girl, Ren. Weapons are used for battles, and battles means either life or death...here we have a story of a boy with his bio weapon, fighting his way out of troubles, saving themselves from people who wants his weapon, and traveling with a group of weird people from an organization said to protect the bio-weapons whom are abused...and in them, a girl with literally enough weapons equipped to blow off a small sector of a city!? A bio-weapon that eats to re-energize!? And a guy who's pretty much useless without his Bio-Weapon? With such a crew....fighting their enemies not only shows off incredible skills, incantations and pretty much the use of quick strategies...and most amazing part of the fights are, the incantations chanted out revolves around the personality of both the user and the weapon themselves. Be amazed at how powerful each ability every different incantation bring out, from hard rock defense to amour of the Winds, the shocking lightning snake and the monkey bar, all these in the form of bio-weapons with different abilities. How will their journey be like? Definitely dangerous, but still, with lots of amusing scenes to watch, definitely.
Drawings: 9.0
Every character is unique, the weapons effect are drawn really well. What’s more is that the characters gets drawn beautifully when needed. Especially Shizuka (The girl loaded with an armoury) , she gets drawn really well when she was in a fight, with all the facial expressions, body movements and fight moves. Really good drawings, I assure you, even with a little goes here and there, only thing keeping it from a 10 is because I’ve still seen better…(I’m bad, someone kill me)
Story: 8.0
Not much to tell here, a group of people and their weapons and bio-weapons journeys to a legendary place from a request by Ren. Ren was found to be the last surviving bio-weapon of the seventh-royal tree, and thanks to some misfortune, Ren, who has been asleep for 200 years now, wakes up to find herself being chased by people who wants to own her…that is, Caud is in the way. And Battles starts and ends, yadda yadda…the plots maintain a cool, humorous way, but only thickens little by little…suspense from the readers, I guess. Once the later books comes out I might just change my view on the whole story.
Entertainment Value: 8.5
Obviously, if you like magic, swords, guns, missiles and literally every type of weapon our there, his is a suitable title for you, but if not, give up on this, this is no cutesy wootsy love story about a boy and a girl. Romance in there, definitely, but if you like romance without seeing things die or get injured….nope, don’t get this title
Overall: 9.0
One of my most treasured, but hey, that’s my own opinion.
