That is the first chapter and it gets worse from there. Fire Punch is weird.
The whole volume proceeds like the fever dream of a man literally too angry to die repeatedly having his PTSD shoved in his face. It jumps around, showing the brutality of the world, the innocence and depravity of its inhabitants, and the injustice rampant in every aspect of civilization. We see early on that the flames Agni carries with him can burn anything to dust, and as time goes on I only see more things that he needs to burn.
This isn't a shonen where you see a person grow to face greater challenges; Agni is the challenge, and you wonder whether there is anything in the world you would want to stop him.
