Gizmo Riser Volume 1 Manga Review

Mar 29, 16:00 manga

When the system is designed to keep you at the bottom, there is no other way to go but up. ― This series checks all the boxes for “shōnen bildungsroman/Hero's Journey tale built on a foundation of social inequity that is actually about the cool gear.” Kuro is a slave among slaves.

It's a story that follows a protagonist who doesn't really have likable qualities, and anytime those likable qualities are showcased, they are either immediately walked back, or they're not strong enough to compensate for the sheer amou...
