A GREAT POTENTIAL IN THE HANDS OF THOSE WHO DON'T KNOW HOW TO TAKE ADVANTAGE.
I don't know how you ended up here, how you found this work, whether it was recommended or by chance (I came across it because of an anime rap), in this immense sea of works that are released continuously, but here we are. Let me tell you a little about this work.

With the great success of the work: [Shuumatsu no Valkyrie] this is another work that starts from a similar premise while trying to innovate with unique characteristics and another vision of something we already know, so the chosen theme is: [Fairy tale]. The author then takes fairy tales and legends and brings with him a "darker" vision of these tales, and the protagonists of them to then fight in a great mortal battle where only one can survive, and as a prize, he can revive a person, regardless of who it is. Wow... First time I've seen this...

Although simple, it is a work of struggle, so in the end what everyone wants to see is struggle, there is no secret, and in this... Unfortunately the author fails. Starting with our competitors, we have:
1. Buddha Son Goku vs Dark Momotaro and his sinister companions.
2. Red Cannibalhood (Little Riding Hood) vs Belle The cursed beast.
3. Hansel The sword wizard & Gretel The cursed sword vs Android with multi-weapon system Pino-kyo 008.
4. Snow White The shaman mother vs Magical girl Alily Nanny.
I'll admit, the idea and design of each competitor is very good and makes you want to know more about them, like the Red Cannibalhood who is Little Riding Hood who wears the wolf's skin, or Snow White who uses the poisons of the same witch who cursed her. It creates curiosity and that is the positive point for this work.

Red Cannibalhood (My Waifu) and Hansel & Gretel were the ones I liked the most, both in story, personality and combat:

The author was also able to show great secondary characters like the presenter Ellah (My second Waifu) who has a lot of charisma and even the organizer Grimm P. who besides also having a lot of charisma manages to be very fair.

The problem starts with the narrative. Dark Momotaro is a Japanese tale. The character is a modified human, but his strength is inferior to all the others. He is just a half-human with a katana (Japanese weapon) forged by Muramasa (Japanese blacksmith). He has no magic, no powers, he has nothing. BUT, he is a Japanese character in a Japanese work, so... You already know.

In the first fight, Dark Momotaro faces Buddha Son Goku, a character who in his story defeats Buddha, the God who created his world. And guess who wins? YES!!! THE GUY WITH A NORMAL KATANA BEATS THE GUY WHO KILLED GOD BY SIMPLY "PASSING HIS LIMITS".

The problem gets even worse when we discover that this is just Block A, and the author shows the result of the first fight of Block B. Not only that, he also shows other stories and great characters that leave the reader curious to see them in action or their stories, like Cheshire Cat Alice and The scary ghost, Jack the pumpkin (Unfortunately I couldn't find images that the site accepts the URL). However, the author throws all of this in off-scream, only showing the result of 2-3 fights of Block B, even though there are 8 competitors (therefore 7 fights). The worst part is that there is a character who is the 3 little pigs who make reference to the Red Cannibal, so it is a huge hook that shows that certain stories take place in the same world, but all of this is thrown to the wind.

The story progresses (I will not talk about each fight) and we have a tie with two competitors dying at the same time, so a ninth competitor is placed in the match, this being Sigurd the Dragon Slayer, the immortal warrior, the living legend and the great first magical swordsman wielding the legendary Gram.

In the second round, Dark Momotaro fights against the Red Cannibal, the one who killed Belle, who had HEALING MAGIC and probably a ridiculous cure bordering on immortality, but since she died in just 3 pages, this is just speculation, because nothing was shown (Great character WASTED). At a certain point in the fight, the Red Cannibal devours Dark Momotaro, BUT THE GUY MANAGES TO REGENERATE HIMSELF FROM INSIDE HER BELLY, AND AFTER COMING OUT, HE FINISHES HER IN A SINGLE ATTACK!!!

At this point in the review, it seems like I'm just throwing gratuitous hate at the character, and yes, I am, but the character has such a big and blatant Plot Armor that it only leaves a bitter taste in the mouth every time this guy fights.

Sigurd fights and wins against Hansel, and in his final fight, he goes against Dark Momotaro AND GUESS WHO WINS? YES!!!! THE KATANA CUT EVERYTHING AND KILL THE IMMORTAL SWORDSMAN!!! JAPAN GUYS!!!

And then you think it's over, right!? NO!!! In Block B, Aladdin becomes the winner of the Block and at the end of his fight, we discover that there are blocks C and D. But it gets worse, however, at the end of Dark Momotaro's fight when he becomes the winner of Block A, the arena is invaded by other winners of OTHER ARENAS, and we discover that there are SEVERAL arenas with blocks and fights, and then a fight of plugs begins, so that in the end the Admin of Block A resurrects Son Goku and two other guys to eliminate the invaders, in the middle of the fight Dorothy from The Wizard of Oz kills the Admin of Block A, Aladdin throws the fuck, kills everyone but Son Goku and OBVIOUSLY Dark Momotaro (who is saved by Son Goku) escape, the 3 get into a fight, and Son Goku sacrifices himself for Dark Momotaro to deliver the final blow (Pause to breathe).

Finally, Dark Momotaro fulfills his wish and brings his sister back, BUT they are both fighting maniacs, they ask to revive everyone to start the lunatic fight from scratch, the Supreme Admin accepts and the story ends showing that the Supreme Admin was just one of many inside a large sphere with other spheres inside a planet...

In the end, it was all crap. The author didn't know how to use his characters, the story from the middle to the end becomes a mess, the Momotaro vs Sigurd fight is horrible because it starts, cuts off, and when it comes back they are on the last legs just to make the final attack and Momotaro wins... Seriously, I don't mind putting patriotism in the story, and giving an advantage to a character with your nationality to win, but... There are limits, man.

Anyway, thanks for taking the time and watching me pour hate on this work.

It was my first review and I hope I helped in some way.
