Well, I had a power outage yesterday so I binged the remaining chapters. Good Manga.
Overall, some thoughts on the series as a whole:
spoiler
++ The series has a weird premise, but my god does that premise carry it a lot. The first half is fantastic++ Great characters, all of them felt really memorable in spite of a large cast. There is one exception and that is the Elf Squad aside from its Captain. They're underdeveloped.
++ The artstyle. The author really delivered and more.
Entertaining and engrossing from chapter 1 to 97
The length. Not too short for it to feel not satisfying, not too long for it to drag
The story, in spite of it being fairly conventional in the end.
The ending. Kui wrote herself into a corner, but managed to land gracefully nonetheless.
Minor remark: Tade's design (Oni girl from Shuro's party) is adorable.
The final party member was introduced fairly late and despite being a character you can write a lot about, there was simply too little thereof
The story felt kinda written-as-you-go at times. In spite of the foreshadowing etc., some things just stopped being relevant while other were picked up out of nowhere.
The dungeon exploration section of the the Manga felt a bit too short and the quality peaked at the reaching of the lowest point in the dungeon. The quality stagnated after that, but didn't fall off too much.
i don't have much to say about it beyond i basically agree with you. i love it when a series has a unique premise that it does well and has good characters and art and a solid throughline. it's just very good
