I'm not going to waste too much of your time.

This manga is great, the characters are solidly written and the plot is decent. Instead of your typical sports manga our protagonist acts a lot more like the villain of a sports movie than the underdog hero. She's naturally incredibly talented, and full of spite for everyone around her. Which makes her a far more interesting character to observe than your typical goodie-2-shoes underdog.

The art is, okay. Its not the series strong point at all.

But the truth strength is the level of detail that the MMA fights are depicted with. Seriously this stuff is on par with Hajime in terms of raw accuracy to a fight. Its outstanding.

If you like tough girls, or just enjoy MMA then this is the perfect manga for you.

Sadly my review comes with a massive caveat, Volume 8 does not exist. It was apparently not published on time by the author who only finished 10~ pages and published them unofficially. And since the manga was never given an official English translation we Western fans are stuck with spotty fan translations and the knowledge that we'll never see the true end of the manga.

I still think the final panel is a fitting one to leave off on though, it fits the character well.
