"Japanese naming of the school's enchanted objects"? Hasn't the Ivalice Alliance taught these people anything?

Making up terms like "Auracite" and "Sun-Cryst" is awesome. :3

I might check this manga out just for the good points of fanciful world and good artwork. But if the characters, story, and cliches are really that bad then I probably won't stick with it. I can't stand things like that. XP

I so agree with your review. After reading the preview pages offered by the American publisher on MySpace, the thought struck me: the story is "full of clichés". Not to mention, the lack of depth in the characters, the manga in general and some of the settings somehow reminds me of Harry Potter. >_>

And I agree with Aki Ameko.
