Let’s see, I follow or completed approx. +20 manga series. Yes, that’s clearly not otaku level, but this is not my point anyway. I have a clear preference, a pattern you can figure out when you go through my manga list. It’s the fact that I favour battle mangas, that’s my business so to speak.
But there also anomalies, exceptions which stand out. Four series to be exact. That’s not even 20% in my case. The fact that I rated three of them 9/10 just speaks volumes about how beautiful those series are/were conveyed to the reader. All three of them outperformed most series in my precious list. And yes, Mahoutsukai no Yome is one of them.
What makes MnY so great you ask? It’s a wonderful story about the relationship between an abandoned girl who already gave up on life and a Mage who - despite his great age - can’t really comprehend human emotions. Together they start to develop as persons and complement each other, but they also stumble over a lot of hardships and obstacles which not only test their relationship, but also test them individually. You are introduced to an interesting fantasy world where magic is not used to blow up the whole planet. Amazing side characters you will instantly miss once they are not featured in the next chapter are that extra something. Magical beings will put a smile on your face whenever you see them interact with others. It’s a very unique premise, isn’t it? Well, not really. You have to read it in order to understand its greatness. It’s the way how the story is written, how the characters are portrayed and how the incredible art sucks you in what makes MnY a brilliant series. I would have never imagined to like a volleyball sports series, but here I am: a big fan of Haikyuu, because it also does what it does in a very special way, even though it’s only about a couple of boys playing volleyball. That's exactly the charm of MnY. Consider it to be the HxH, Vinland Saga or Yakusoku no Neverland of its genre.
A vote for Mahoutsukai no Yome is a vote for the high quality underdog. I haven’t read Gintama, but its popularity, memes and ratings speaks for itself. There is no point to speak ill of Gintama, because the majority knows it’s a great manga. But Gintama doesn’t need recognition whatsoever. Mahoutsukai no Yome does! Help it to become a little bit more popular around MH, so other people can experience this amazing ride as well!
And yes, I was forced to post something here, but I won't reveal his/her name. u.u
