My Thoughts on Fire Force
I have not yet watched or read Fire Force, although fans frequently recommend it in forums of action and shonen genres. I was unaware that the manga concluded some time ago, and I am now considering giving it a try. However, given that the manga spans approximately 300 chapters, I may opt to start with the anime adaptation instead.
