Synopsis
Many gods have come to settle in the Labyrinth City of Orario, blessing the mortals who venture into its underground maze in search of power, fortune … … or girls?! This is in any case the wish of Bell Cranel, a novice adventurer under the blessing of the unpopular goddess Hestia. Narrowly saved by the beautiful Aiz Wallenstein, an outstanding swordsman, Bell vows to follow in her footsteps and become an adventurer worthy of competing with her. Determined to take on this new challenge, Bell plunges into the mysterious Dungeon with a new energy that is sure to attract the attention of some gods.
Transmedia being an essential force of Japanese pop culture, it is normal nowadays to see some licenses adapted on several formats. This is the case of Danmachi which appeared to us in the first place in anime in 2015, while waiting for its original support to appear in bookstores in 2016 at Ofelbe editions. And as was the case for Sword Art Online or Overlord and Re: Zero, the publisher Ototo Manga offers, hand in hand with this last title, to decline Fujino Omori's baby in manga. Pre-published since 2013 in Young Gangan magazine (Dimension W, Distopiary, Ubel Blatt… ) of Square-Enix, Danmachi now has 9 bound volumes and is still in publication. In the drawing, we find a certain Kunieda who is still unknown in French-speaking lands.
A return under the sign of novelty for Ototo Manga editions, between this release and that of Fate/Apocrypha. And you, for which series does your heart beat?
