| That was a fairly standard first chapter where protag-kun sets out on his grand adventure. The characters are all entertaining, but there's nothing special yet. Linae is not a friend lol. Childhood, maybe, but definitely not friend. Jien was also fun; that random bunny girl gag caught me off guard and therefore was hilarious. I hope he becomes a character with actual character instead of just a goofy personality though. Kinato is sort of basic. The plot seems kind of basic – almost isekai-ish but like, a Jump manga. Kinato's magic... Is to control mana itself?? I feel like that should warrant more self-confidence and respect from others, and I don't quite see why it would seem weak at all, but I guess that's how it goes in cheat skill manga series. I probably won't continue reading this unless other people start telling me that it becomes good. I feel like some people will enjoy this, but I'm currently not one of those people. Sorry to be a downer on the first MAL chapter discussion thread for this manga... |
| I like this, it was nice chapter. I can see myself getting kinda angry and sad if this series will be axed. Also, I'm calling this now, Kinato doesn't have "seitai magic" but something more OP, like energy manipulation. |

| That was really good! Clean, crisp, yet exaggerated artstyle with a light and easy to love ensemble makes me feel warm while reading this. The magic seitei is a unique touch, and ultimately I just found it incredibly wholesome! Rooting for this series! |
| Really good first chapter, i love fantasy mangas so i hope it will continue with good chapters. |
| ik its only one chapter but it was a good one, I like the art style, I see so much personality in the characters, not sure abt the power system yet, i feel like there's lot of potential. kinda exited for more. also mc looks alot like deku especially in this panel lol  |

| I came in ready to dislike this with the generic name and setting but it really won me over. The characters are fun and have room to grow and while the setting is not the most original the art is great and I really felt a spark. This has the sauce and I hope it can deliver. |
| this seems fun and light hearted, could have the potential to go far depending on how they build the story and characters. Fantasy is really saturated nowadays, so it'll be an uphill battle, but at the very least the MC seems likable |
 Dreams are worth fighting for |
| 🎯 TRUTH SCORE: 7.5/10 ⭐⭐⭐✨🌑 🇺🇸 It’s no Sakamoto Days, but Kinato is one to watch. |
