This is my trash special contract this season. Thank you for the contract It was only 28 chapters but I really want my time back. This manga sucked so much. I want to at least get what I liked out of the way: the art and panelling was nice the characters had decent designs and the story is paced reasonably. Thats about all I have to say for the positives and hell Im probably stretching it. There is no story to be enjoyed here. The author liked minecraft a lot and decided the world needs an SAO wannabe minecraft edition. But why? Why would you want to write something so utterly dogshit? Every character sucks: the mc is bland as hell the villain has the least compelling backstory ive seen in an awful long time and my God could you have at least tried to hide the fact that Noa is Nao? This story isnt even fun its just boring and poorly written. There is practically no conflict in the manga and it tries to take itself so seriously without ever trying to say something meaningful. There are whole chapters devoted to tropes such as the slave dungeons. My man had to draw 28 chapters of this. That sucks that really sucks. Manga is incredibly tough and time consuming to produce. That goes without saying but I want you to fundamentally understand that drafts scripts comcept designs storyboards editing the actual process of drawing it all out revising all had to be done for this slop. There are so many people who have bright ideas and want to tell their story through manga but realize how difficult that task is and give up. Meanwhile my man here has this lame ass idea with nothing original and publishes 28 chapters. 28 CHAPTERS. That is so much of his life gone to something meaningless. I want writers to think about what they are making before they write. Ask yourself: why am I making this? And if you dont have an excellent answer to that go back to the drawing board. In a time where AI is taking over all creative jobs the solution for now is to be more creative. To take more risks. Cube Arts did not do that. It pains to know that Cube Arts is far from the only manga that suffers from these issues. As someone writing and illustrating my own manga series Immortals I know firsthand the struggles that people go through in making stories come to life while balancing it all with the responsibilities life throws at you. Make what you create meaningful. Dont waste your damn time. You are taking a large chunk of your life and devoting it to something others will read. Thats an awful big sacrifice so make something worth everyones timemake something that has something new to say and dont let that something resemble Cube Arts in the slightest.
