From MangaHelpers:
This volume contains four short stories by Ine Arinaga. In the first story, two friends can see strange creatures every Thursday. These creatures climb onto people, stating their troubles in simple terms. Though they worry about the people around them, there is little they can do to help. Other stories involve situations including a girl who wishes away a boy's face and a box that contains what the person who owns it truly wants. [tethysdust]
So, having binged this manga... It had a good start where a technical one-trick-pony was able to be amazing by applying knowledge, effort and imagination to turn a basic magic technique into the most versatile and powerful magical force conceivable. It even came to the point that within his barriers he was a god who could create a pocket of literal Heaven... Now, it just feels derivative and generic.
The MC's chaste wife seems to have changed for the worst; while hinted at being a special existence by her biological father, she is now some kind of reincarnated Angel? No explanation given as to the change... and now the Elder Super-Vamp Queen he turned into his familiar has become just an upstart youngster of her race. She was supposed to be the most knowledgeable and powerful of her kind which is why he encountered her first as she was the first to break her seal due to her formidable power and familiarity with the magic used on her and her kind... The long this series goes, the worst it gets... I mean; did the author just completely drop the plot about his previous country going to shit without him and how they desperately want him back? Ah well.
