Che is just a human in a world full of superpowered "Kimyos", but he's determined to become the greatest fighter to ever live. When his beloved mentor is murdered, Che swears vengeance and embarks on a mission to unmask the killer. But soon Che learns that the world of Kimyos is much larger than he ever imagined, and that he himself might be one -- the most powerful Kimyo on Earth, with the power of the sun itself. Will Che be able to harness his new strength, or will he burn up in the heat of this ordeal?

VibeCheckAug 09, 2026PEAK. FUCKING. FICTION. Not only has one of my favorite art styles in any comic, but also one of my favorite stories too. I could go on and on about every little thing about Ordeal. From its lovable casts to its exhilarating and godlike fight scenes to its great worldbuilding and tension, it’s pretty much a 10/10 across the board. My only real critique is that the songs that go with each episode are often very unfitting, so I’d recommend reading it without the soundtrack, or put something more action-y instead. Once this is completed, I’d love to see an adaptation of it someday
