![]() I enjoyed it the first time I read this, but honestly I don't think it holds up well today. ![]() ![]() Other than that, it's a generic archetypal collection of characters and plot devices: boy with missing father leaves hometown->meet cute amnesiac girl->collect magical artifacts to save the world from evil organization. What's most memorable is the often surrealistic design of its fantasy creatures: we have Plue (mascot character that looks like a dog+snowman thing), Ruby (talking penguin and successful entrepreneur), and Griff and Nakajima (.I can't really explain what the hell these two are). The world here is pretty interesting, a modern fantasy setting that kind of reminds me of some Japanese RPG titles. Hiro Mashima's earlier shounen series before he struck gold with Fairy Tail.
