Manga Great series regretable end
Mx0 is quite possibly my favorite manga of all time. The writing is good, the jokes are clever, and the story is interesting. The main character - Taiga - is so much more interesting than most main characters, and seeing him bluff, lie, and outwit all these magicians with no - or later very few - magic tricks of his own is always entertaining. The entire cast - especially Ise and the love-interest's father - are fun and interesting and it's nice to see a series where the girls eventually realize that when the main character says "I can explain" they should let him try... and then beat up Ise for good measure.
The only bad part - and it's a big one - is that the series got cut short and has a really rushed ending that while is a decent finish, does nothing to really resolve any of the elements - other than speeding up Taiga becoming a wizard. Still it's a great series and I highly recommend it.
Manga Excellent Series, Ended Before It's Time
Mx0, in my opinion, is probably the best comedy series I've read, and is definitely in the running for best romance and best action. The setup of the main character accidently becoming part of a world he doesn't understand might seem a little contrived, but was executed so well that it came across as completely unique.
Another thing that is unique about it is that even though it's ecchi, it isn't a full on harem, as the MC, Taiga, quite clearly maintains affection for the heroine. Another refreshing break from standard ecchi plot comes with the fact that the MC is so honest and dedicated that even when he's placed in ecchi situations, the girls think to give him the benefit of the doubt.
Furthermore, the MC, who can't use magic, counters all of the other magic users with little more than his wits, super tough body, lies, schemes, bluffs, tricks, and a determination that would make shonen protagonists proud. Not only does Mx0 give us an awesome protagonist, but it also has tons of minor characters, each with their own personality quirks. However, despite all the characters in the story, each one seems to be used to their best potential, and I never got the feeling that "oh, they could have expanded on this character a little more".
Considering the plot revolves around the MC trying to prevent getting found out that he's a muggle, the fight scenes are excellent, with Taiga loading on the BS of being a "master wizard" scene after scene. The author knows exactly what points of a fight to play for drama and which points to play for humor, and the jokes are clever and hilarious. The only thing I thought could be improved was that the story was somewhat lacking with only a few major arcs and no real villain; but that was because the story was so good I was fooled into thinking it was an action series, instead of a comedy that doesn't need a villain to be engaging and enjoyable.
All in all, Mx0 was an engaging, fun ride all the way through, and when I was done I wanted to read it again. The biggest problem was that the series was abruptly cancelled just as it was getting good, leaving me wanting to see more of these characters I'd grown attached to. The ending felt rushed and disappointing, and I can't help but regret all the potential lost. If you're looking for a good, quick read, and a laugh or twenty, you can't go wrong with Mx0.
