Le dieu de la destruction arrive en librairie le 6 septembre !
Il y a bien longtemps, l’humanité est parvenue, au terme d’une grande bataille, à enfermer le dieu de la destruction dans une pierre sacrée. Mais des siècles plus tard, dans un petit village de bord de mer, une collégienne du nom de Ruru Miyanagi trouve... source http://www.otakuplayer.fr/2023/06/le-dieu-de-la-destruction-arrive-en-librairie-le-6-septembre.html

What if Ruru Miyanagi had a tumblr account? I’m thinking she’ll post things about her little god buddy and her friends, and sometimes just post some random musings, life stories, and reblogs.
Like fishing tips, for example. Because she likes fishing.

Long ago, I said I did not like sports. Yet, Magu-chan has had a good record of confronting the prejudices I have against certain story tropes.
“A Thrilling Sports Festival of Chaos,” Magu-chan: God of Destruction, Chapter 62. By Kei Kamiki, translation by Christine Dashiell, lettering by Annaliese “Ace” Christman. Available from Viz.
So, everyone just knows there are tiny eldritch gods in their community, right? That’s where things have to stand at this point in the story, right? It’s not as if this series has to explain everything as well as it did with this chapter, that Nosu Koushu can control her sleeping abilities just enough to obscure the gods’ presence in public. After all, Magu and the others have walked around in public so frequently, with people assuming they are just sea creatures, or just accepting that, yes, there are little gods walking around like Smurfs or elves, that there’s nothing shocking about this anymore. I write all of this to start this post not to condemn the choice by this chapter, but to reflect on how far along the series has come, where I as a reader can shrug and just accept that this town is full of weirdos who don’t question what they are seeing, while the story gives enough care to actually offer a believable enough explanation. It’s to this series credit that it gave that satisfactory explanation so as not to suspend disbelief too much and lazily dismiss the townspeople are just that foolish not to notice, and it’s something I think certain other ongoing serialized stories that will remain nameless could benefit from. The story could have coasted on readers just accepting anything right now; the story still has enough concern to explain itself.
All of that disclaimer out of the way, I can look at the story itself, and this was a lot of fun. As soon as Ruru gave that awkward explanation that it’s autumn and now time for a sports festival, I could not help but think of that gag in Monthly Girls’ Nozaki-kun where Nozaki has just had enough of his editor’s nonsense and out of pettiness skips an entire season just to avoid using any of his editor’s ideas. Granted, Magu-chan is not that subversive or cynical in this chapter to skip the season, but I do appreciate how hamfisted Ruru’s narration sounded before Ren acknowledges the readers’ reactions and says, yeah, we know, this is really spelling it out for you, let’s at least make a joke of it and move on--to yet another joke, topping that one, with Ruru and Ren dead-eyed as they see their chibi gods invading the school. I know the series repeats that same dead-eye expression all the time, but it’s a solid visual gag, and credit to Kamiki for finding a unique way to draw something memetic for this series.
I also appreciated starting with that kind of a gag, because taken another way, this chapter could have turned out very depressing or schmaltzy. I understand that ending this chapter with a moral that the power of teamwork saved the day is indeed schmaltzy, but you can’t deny that the chapter undermined that saccharine sentimentality by having Ruru again tie up the gods as punishment for abusing their powers and breaking the rules of revealing themselves in public. And I’m glad this chapter didn’t go into the depressing angle, in which an entire story could be crafted out of Ren or Kikyo or someone else feeling inadequate against the gods or Izuma in these sports competitions, or something akin to My Hero Academia turning a sports festival into a family drama, which totally could have happened here, with Ruru thinking how her mom can’t come back from overseas for this festival, or Ren thinking how his parents are too busy running the family restaurant to support him from the crowds. I’m glad that this chapter avoided these cliches and focused on the strengths of the goofy little gods and how far along they have come. I’m not happy that they had to establish their power of teamwork by giving us a brief flashback to that crappy colonialist chapter from earlier this year, but I’ll just delete that memory and proceed with this review.
Magu-chan also maintains its good work at crafting a gag, from setup to punchline. I should have seen it coming that Unisuke would be the key to victory, by establishing from the beginning how useless he felt, before his depressive powers become key to winning the calvary match. I know I go back too often to the sports festival arc in My Hero Academia, but that reveal was a far funnier version of the same thing MHA did, waiting so long to reveal Monoma’s Quirk until it was perfectly relevant to that moment in the story. I appreciate that Unisuke’s depressive powers have not been a gag that wears out its welcome, as Izuma and Uneras’s fantasy and anime nerds gags can--although, thankfully, their schtick was handled very well and were legitimately funny in this chapter. Likewise, while “Naputaaku must suffer” gags can wear out their welcome, I did enjoy the setup and payoff here: of course his team has been cheating so long, it’s only fair that, even after his muscular form makes a return, that our favorite foodie would be denied his meal by Izuma’s last minute arrival.
I hate writing a review in the context of factors external to it, but in light of some challenges going on, both ones I’m dealing with personally and ones happening in the larger national and global context, I enjoyed getting to read this chapter: it was another gag-filled light reading that was a welcome interruption to the more serious arcs the manga has had recently, and an appreciated interruption from the chaos of the world, even while reading about little gods who are the embodiment of chaos.

Manga First Impression: Magu-chan: God of Destruction
Tumblr media
Magu-chan: God of Destruction, a new Shonen Jump series from Kei Kamiki, begins in a medieval fantasy world where an ancient god of destruction, the monster Magu Menueku, is attacking humanity. The ancient warriors and wizards imprison the creature in a crystal and hide it away, hoping to never deal with it again…
Tumblr media
Enter Ruru Miyanagi. She’s a middle school student combing the beach. Kind of literally. While doing so, she runs across a random crystal and is really hoping to make a quick buck from it, but it’s cracked. And what comes out of the crack? Magu Menueku. However, the god of destruction is not in it’s original form, but rather smaller, weaker, and kind of adorable.
Tumblr media
The rest of this first chapter involves this kawaii god of destruction trying to adapt to its tiny form and dealing with the tween girl it’s living with. Ruru is a relatively normal kid who’s living alone and just isn’t going to take any guff from the creature she has dubbed Magu-chan.
Magu just can’t believe that a lowly human would speak to them in such a way.
This is where the humor comes in.
Tumblr media
Egotistical former god of destruction trapped in a teeny-tiny form unable to do…anything it wants while dealing with a lonely, sassy tween who just wants to live her life. The first chapter sets up a fun relationship between the two and they play off one another very well. This may be one of my favorite introductions to a new series I’ve seen in a while. It’s all very silly, and I am looking forward to more next week!
