Übel Blatt (ユーベルブラット Yūberu Buratto?, "Evil Blade") is a Japanese manga series written and illustrated by Etorōji Shiono.

The story of Übel Blatt takes place in a medieval, fantasy-like landscape. It follows the steps of Koinzell, who appears to be nothing more than a mere half-human child most distinguishable for the scar over his left eye. He is on a quest of revenge against those who betrayed and killed him and now call themselves the seven heroes of the land.

Synopsis

When Wischtech threatened to invade the fiefs of Szaalanden, the Emperor dispatched fourteen youths. Of these, the Seven Heroes halted the invasion to herald a time of prosperity while the four Lances of Betrayal were supposedly defeated.

Two decades later, the Lances of Betrayal have reappeared and formed a bandit militia near the frontier fief Gormbark. A man with the black sword and a scar over his left eye slays an entire troop of that militia. He is identified as a boy, Kóinzell, and becomes as much an object of fear as of hope even as his own past, motivations, and purpose are a mystery to those he meets in his travel.

Are the later chapters really that bad?

I read some of this manga when I was young and then lost track of it (Probably shouldn't have read it at 13). I saw a post from like 7 years ago that it goes down hill fast after each break. I'm going to finish it anyways, but does it pick back up at all? It was a bummer to hear that because this is the second manga I've ever found online.

Return of the Manga Vol.

Since this series will have an Anime soon do you think Yen Press will reprint discontinued volumes. It will boost the popularity of either the anime or manga.

I read these almost a decade ago but a few yrs back i started collecting the physical vol. I been missing 3, 4 and 6. Hopefully there's a chance of returning.

Trying to find the English Manga is a nightmare.

I've been trying to find a couple of the English volumes now for a few weeks. I've had some luck with most of the volumes but 10 has been impossible to find by itself. If anyone has a good suggestion for where to look, I need some help. Thanks!

Hardcover edition

Hey so I’ve collected all the volumes, but I was wondering if there were any hardcover editions of the series I could get my hands on or maybe more deluxe versions?

Looking for some pictures

I don’t have all physical copies and not all scanned online versions have all the pages. I am trying to figure out the locations of places in the setting and the paths characters have taken, the location of boardlands and the stone spears and its proximity to the barrier, the capital szaalion, and everything. I am confused because in one flashback to 5 years before the story starts Koinzell is in a snowy area, but then he arrives in border-city and needs to be smuggled across the border to get into the empire… but wen later on they are fighting glenn they show the area as snowy and then green just before the barrier. But i thought those territories were more north which is where lebelont retreats to. Im confused lel. I tend to hyperfixate on one setting and try to understand everything about it so thats why im thinkin about this… I guess it doesn’t follow north = colder like normal.

Some lore/story questions

I was confused, how did Koinzell get back, was the "door" in the barrier with Wischtech still open, wasn't sealed by the stone spears and the monastery? or was it held open by that? can someone help me understand what that whole situation is about?

Thank

Anybody else a bit disappointed with the ending *Spoilers big time*

So I just binge read ubel blatt over the course of about a week, was feeling like I needed some berserkesque, seinen manga and I’ve gotten this recommended to me so many times so I thought I’d try it. I genuinely enjoyed it so much until I think what was the largest drop in quality at Glenn’s death. The way they killed Glenn after building him up for so long made it plain obvious that something was afoot, not to mention it just felt downright unsatisfying to see him die after not even talking to ascheritt at all. Immediately after this plot point in my opinion is when quality dropped obviously. Characters started drastically changing personalities, many characters were introduced that I could never grow attached to because they felt so emotionless and forgettable. All these things just ended up achieving was the last arc being infinitely more confusing as it tried to show every character it could think of at any point in time. Anyway those things are besides my main point, I still think it’s obvious the quality dropped there but my main problem was with the ending, ending arc and the way it treated its characters. I hated the epilogue if I’m being honest, for such a big manga with so many characters to not even mention a half of the important ones in the epilogue is just such a disrespect. Peepi at no point is mentioned in the epilogue, she may get closure and join her kind or not we will never know, hell we don’t even know her name. Ato was never mentioned even though her and ascheritt being basically linked seemed like such a big plot point that was never utilised. Even ascheritt himself was in the chapter but he barely even said anything of value just said he’d work for the empire till he died which is basically to be expected. For the build up they got ischudien and Glenn kind of served as anticlimactic villains imo. And there’s so much more I could talk about as I’m just in that kind of mood. Basically though I think all of these problems could be forgiven of at the very least a proper epilogue was given with proper stories for each of the characters, as the number one thing I desired was closure for them but I never got it.

TLDR: It was great but second half was lacklustre and the ending sucked. Focused way too hard into a battle no one cared about rather than actually finished these many character arcs that were built up which just removed any closure to be gained from the ending.

Tale of the 7 deceivers

After reading the manga I got inspired to write a poem about the 7 heroes and their deception:

Seven heroes, once held in high esteem,

Deceived their friends, a terrible scheme,

Killed four, in cold blood, without a care,

But little did they know, fate would be fair.

Twenty years passed, the truth was revealed,

Their secrets exposed, their fate sealed,

A surviving friend, with a heart full of hate,

Sought revenge, it was his fate.

One by one, he hunted them down,

Their guilt, a heavy burden to bear, around

He killed them all, in the name of revenge,

For the friends they killed, he sought atonement.

Seven heroes, once thought invincible,

Fell to the wrath of a friend so resolute,

Deceit and murder, they did commit,
But in the end, they couldn't acquit.

The surviving friend, lived on in peace,

His revenge, a story that will never cease,

A reminder to all, of the cost of deceit,

And the price paid, for the ones they did cheat.

physical copies are so expensive

I have been looking for copies of this for so long, but they are always so expensive, i have found a few for under 20 but only barely. There is no point to this post really other than me wishing i had more of the physical copies. i have 0 and 1 now, and they are relatively cheap used but all the other ones are expensive..

Looking for more translated end of volume notes

My favorite part about the series is the notes at the end of each volume that give you an extra peek of the world of Ubel Blatt without all the text dumps but after a while the fan translations stop translating them. Does anyone know where I can find more that have been translated? Or does anyone know if the official translation translated the notes at the end of each volume?

I think the series got worse after it became weekly like a lot worse

The point that i really started feeling a shift was in the spoilers first Glenn death it was so anticlimactic that i thought it had to have been a body double incase of an attack but no, it was the real him. Also the last arc was just bad

Question regarding the chain swords

When the manga starts they are the "main power" of the MC. Then they are no longer really used much or just nullified.

But, is there ever an explanation to that power? I read everything but those swords feel very random. It feels like wishtech magic more than fairy magic but it is fairy based due to the moons. Was it just a cool power idea that ended up too strong so the author abandoned it?

Help finding the English Manga

I’ve read book 0 and 1 but I having trouble finding book 2 for less than $80 and I’ve seen about half the series is impossible to find in stores or online. Is this due to COVID or something? Any advice on how to not pay $900 for the series would be great.

You ever think some big studio will make this an Anime one day? It has enormous potential.

Title. Seems like such wasted potential. Aside from the ending, a lot of this manga is just ripe with potential to be a fantastic action series.
