I actually read The Distant Neighborhood several months ago. It actually is a pretty good series. I think its a manga that really only appeals to a older crowd, but it has a story and plot behind it as well. But what I like most about this manga is how realistic it feels.

But I can honestly say I thought the whole process of knighting someone ended with King Arthur.
