The new shonen action manga from the creator of Magi is here! Musashi is a teenager living under demon rule. As children, he and his best friend made a promise: to become the greatest warriors in the world and overthrow the demons. But life intervenes, and five years later, he finds himself about to become a miner. Yet he can't shake the feeling that he still has a responsibility to act... and, soon, the injustices of his world will force his hand.
Overall, while Volume 6 of Orient is no match for the meat of the previous volume, it still feels like a smooth transition over to the next part of the story, introducing a swathe of new characters in preparation for the upcoming arc, while filling in bits and pieces of the overarching plot while it can. With this being a long-running shonen manga its rather expected we get these types of volumes from time to time, and I feel like Orient handles it pretty well despite there being not too much going on. While it is tempting to skim through to get to the next part of the action, its still worth taking the time to appreciate some of the world building and character introductions and avoid missing some of the finer details that may pay dividends later on.
