Black Summoner (Manga) Vol 1

Product Information

The writing can be really janky at times, especially in the beginning. Yeah, the cringe is horrible. But as the plot develops, the writing improves and it becomes bearable. The General Atmosphere is very Positive & Optimistic, Which is a Rare Trait in Modern Action Anime. I see this as a Particularly Rare Plus. Leo informs Kelvin Trycen has been increasing aggression against Gawn kingdom. Coincidentally, he sends Kelvin on his Rank S promotion exam, to complete a job for Leonheart Gawn, Beast-King of Gawn, by slaying a Rank S monster to save an elven village. Elven Chief Nelras mistakes Efil for his own daughter, Lumil, but realises his mistake. Kelvin is curious about Lumil and Nelras explains 20 years ago Lumil offered herself as sacrifice to save the village from a dragon. The dragon took her as his wife, but years later Lumil was found dead and fearing the dragons return, the elves fled to Gawn. Kelvin suspects Lumil was Efil's mother, though her human father remains unknown as pregnancy between the dragon and Lumil would be impossible. Nelras reveals the monster has been kidnapping elves so Kelvin erects a stone barrier around the village. Trycen soldiers invade with monsters somehow under their command, but are killed by Efil using extremely long range archery magic. Their commander avoids capture by controlling the Rank S monster, a Gigant-Lord. The Gigant is defeated by Rion and Alex, only to transform into a flaming Gigant-Furnace. Rion defeats it again anyway and captures the commander. General Clive appears and almost kills Efil, who is saved by Kelvin. Kelvin realises Clive is strong and feels his Battle-Junkie instincts rising. The ability to strip materials from corpses (human ones included). Clotho uses this to great efficacy as it first absorbs corpses and then directly transfers anything procured through Dismantle into its Storage.

The Animation is at it's best when there is Combat (Which is pretty rare). The rest is alot of Still Frames & Slow Pans of Mundane Scenes. a b "「黒の召喚士」天羽銀がマンガ化、戦闘狂の転生者描く痛快バトルファンタジー".

Can be used on living beings and items that haven't been analyzed yet. A higher skill rank offers more detailed information. This school of magic is for manipulating wind and earth, and thanks to being quite well-balanced, provides the most flexibility in dealing with any situation. Screw This, I'm Outta Here: One of Cashiel's party members decides to run away when he realizes Kelvin is hiding something. Kelvin summons Clotho to stop him.

The things that didn't make this good are probably how morally upright the MC is so he ends up being like a generic person apart from the battle junkie attitude he has which does make it more interesting but still doesn't outweigh the boringness of being an upstanding citizen like person which is just occasionally annoying and just disinteresting at this point, although I understand it's pretty much the default Japanese personality.The contents are " a tremendous status growth passive" and the skill of the occupation " summoner" who uses the monsters under his control. A summoner is a rare existence in his reincarnated destination, and there are many ties to it, but he bravely throws himself into an unknown world with the skills he has acquired as a weapon. The guy did nothing to outsmart anyone he just knew he could overpower the villain adventurers and did so. What’s clever about that ? Yeah, the art isn't the most "proportionally correct" (as if that's ever a thing in most manga) and in the beginning it's slightly better than amateur. But it gets far better over time as the artist begins to develop a style similar to One Piece (but less exaggerated in both how narrow the stomach/waists are and how "thicc" the "thicc" parts are), then use that as a base to develop an even better style. Personally, in the later chapters, I think it's more appealing than the style of One Piece.

By the mistake of a god, a young man named Kelvin dies and agrees to be reincarnated into a new world with skills he chooses himself, in exchange for all memories except his name taken. Awakening in the new world he finds he chose to be a Summoner mage and the Goddess of Reincarnation, Melfina, is now his servant in the form of an interactive game menu. Arriving in the town of Parth he joins the Adventurers Guild as a basic mage, keeping his Summoner skill secret as Melfina explains Summoners are so rare and powerful, kings and nations would start wars to acquire him. He takes a job to slay slime monsters which leads to taming a slime and naming it Clotho, which also gives it a distinct personality. He learns from Melfina that before reincarnating he made his Summoner class Rank S, the highest possible, making him the most powerful living Summoner, and as he is still only Level 1 he will become even more powerful as his Level increases. His skill also provides a massive boost to his summons as Clotho is now 100 times stronger. Returning to Parth he is disturbed to find slavery is common in this world but tries not to think about it and instead rents a room for the night.

You know, I didn't expect I'd give this manga it's highest written review rating, but I can see why. This manga stumbles hard in the beginning, but enduring the first 18 chapters will let you see the beginning of what this manga blooms into: a battle-crazed MC pushing his limits in another world while both embracing and destroying various isekai tropes.
