   Many books portray a person's good and evil in too absolute terms. As children, we might have thought the world was black and white, but as we grow older, we realize that people change. I really enjoyed the many relationships between the characters in this novel. They started as enemies but later became friends, rather than just endless fighting and killing. Unlike some novels where the protagonist has no male friends but only a harem, this one is different. The martial arts world isn't just about love; it also includes family, mentorship, and brotherhood. It doesn't sacrifice many positive emotional values to create sharp conflicts.
