YMMV / Ankoku Kishi Monogatari

• Arc Fatigue: The story took over a year to be Rewritten on the revised version.
  • The official English translation is hard to read, and is only at Volume 1.
  • Exaggerated with the translation. The unofficial translation by Cnine is moving at a snail's pace only reaching early Volume 5 and has been going on since early 2016-2018. The translation is currently going on a weekly basis while Cnine does chapter fractions as they are too much work for him with him doing at least 7 other works, including The Rewritten Version.
  • Which is not going fast at all, having only gotten to Volume 2 of 10 after a year. Not to mention they still split the chapters into fractions. Even expecting to pay for fast translations.
• Base-Breaking Character: Chiyuki. She is the voice of reason in the heroes party but fans are divided on whether she can bring the story to a better conclusion. Volume 7 has her becoming a nervous wreck and causes fans to hate on her for being traumatized by Kuroki's penis.
• Damsel Scrappy: Shirone and by extension the heroes party need to be saved by Kuroki as the plot demands it.
• The Scrappy:Basically the entire fandom to the Heroes Party, except maybe Chiyuki and Kyouka,to a lesser extent.
  • This also applies to Goz. He overstayed his welcome Regena doing BDSM with him is mentally disturbing to many readers in Volume 7
• Ship Tease: Lots of it throughout the story.
  • Rena with Kuroki throughout her appearances. It is accomplished in Volume 2. It is revealed to Kuroki in Volume 5. She continues to love him as the story goes on.
  • Regena and Kuroki is a good example through Volume 2 3 and 4.
  • Totona and Kuroki in Volume 4 and 7.
  • Kyouka's boob grab in Volume 1. Kyouka's training in Volume 4 and her reaction to the lizardmen when Kuroki makes them. Her reaction to him in Volume 5. In Volume 7 she wants to go to Nargol to inform him of Shirone's condition. Volume 9 has her speak nicely of him. Volume 10 has her and Shirone double teaming on Pollen about Kuroki.
  • Charis and Remus is left ambiguous in Volume 6.
  • Totoyima and Turkissos in Volume 10
