    I keep wondering how much, if at all, this was inspired by Fujimura-kun Meitsu. It’s sort of as if Helmet got a spin-off manga and was promoted (or demoted, as the case might be) from boke to tsukkomi.

      Never heard of this series before so I’m just going off of the description but I don’t really see it?

      Alvin is neither a loner (he’s a beginner adventurer who sucks, that’s why he’s alone) nor a delinquent (he’s a really nice guy to pretty much everyone) and while I understand the boke - tsukkomi transition, complete change of character would be a bit much for such comparison, wouldn’t it?

      That said, I might be completely wrong since I know nothing about the other manga. Is it any good?
