The first thing to note about this series is that the English title is quite off the mark (the original title uses ‘martial arts’). There is very little sword-fighting in here, with the protagonist instead specializing in unarmed combat and energy blasts, so I have no idea why it was changed to something so ill-fitting. Makes me wonder what else was changed.
The next is that like in Tanya not much is made of his being a girl now. After the initial shock and occasional misgivings (usually used as comic relief) he doesn’t much care and ends up with an attitude similar to Kendeshi‘s protagonist in that he enjoys looking at his own reflection.
And the last is that the series takes something of a nose-dive in the fifth volume (which is significantly shorter than previous ones) and doesn’t recover much in the sixth. These two really should have been cut down into a single novel with most of the dragon-meat-related content excised. Now this deterioration could be attributed to the events mentioned in the Afterword, and I sincerely hope that ends up being the case… but I guess we’ll have to see how the seventh turns out.
