Happy New Year 2024 and starting out this Blog's first post of the year with another Fantasy series Manga! Created by the Author of Helck, Verndio Sword Saga is another promising fantasy series. Probably taken on the same universe but different timeline with Helck, Verndio is a story of former Mercenary accompanied by a mysterious Demihuman waifu trying to make a place called home for himself and his companions in war-torn world where Powerful weapon artifacts known as Surreal Swords are wielded by ambitious Individual who seek to carve out their own Kingdoms.
Just like Helck, Verndio is a very good manga if you seek a wholesome Fantasy Series in not so peaceful settings and apparently the Protagonist will face the same adversary that Helck faced at some point. Given the recent resurgence of Helck popularity with the Anime adaptation, I decided to give this series a run after I finished reading Helck. Overall Verndio is a very solid manga which had the same flaw with Helck with pacing issues on the moments that mattered. So far Verndio ran for 53 Chapters for its First cour storyline as the Mangaka took a break due to health issues. Thus you can see what this manga able to offer as it stops at the right moment for the cliffhanger. I do hope the Mangaka can recover well before setting out on Verndio once again since this series had what it takes to surpass its predecessor.
