Reception
Mania.com's Jarred Pine criticises the manga on relying too much on " flashy violence rather than really exploring the conflicts of the heretic inquisitions."[11]
gollark: REVERSE POLISH NOTATION CALCULATOR
gollark: æ²
gollark: Would you even have a government without it being able to tax?
gollark: Yes, that seems about right.
gollark: So true. Especially with the modern interweb. A bunch of "desktop apps" are just webapps shipping with an entire copy of Chromium for no good reason, and websites download several megabytes of fonts, images and scripts for something like 10kB of content.
