The Heroic Legend of Arslan, Vol. 1 by Yoshiki Tanaka, Hiromu Arakawa
3.0
**I watched part of the anime, but never finished and I wanted to read the manga before I gave it a retry. I liked it, but it was still airing at the time. I don't know if they ever finished making the anime or if the manga was even up to date.**
Characters 3
A lot of first volumes of manga are just introducing characters and threads of a plot, but I do see some interesting aspects with Arslan and Daryun.
Setting 4
The Manga is giving us a clear picture if their world and how their economy works. We know some people have slaves and another country is a big religious country. I'm excited to learn more about the world.
Plot 3
We have threads of a plot of a war and the man in the mask but, nothing substanial yet.
Art 3
I like Arakawa, but their art doesn't astound me.
Dialogue/Writing 3
We are going to interesting places with the dialogue and it's very informative and we get to know what warriors and warlords are called in this world. I know this an adaptation of Yoshiki Tanaka's novel and I wish I could have read the novel first(it's not translated into English. I will forever be upset until it is translated).
Enjoyability 4
I had a lot of fun reading this and it pretty fast paced!
Overall Rating 3.33
