Soup eating is fun, very Full Metal Alchemist humour😆😊.
I dunno how I quite feel about how they act in the second half. I get the idea they're sort of just playing along to try and discover whats up, but it kinda reads like 'welp, found a barrier, guess we live here now, hope we can trust the locals' 😆.
Which I think ties to a larger structural issue I have so far: The opening hook is very strong, and since chapters are short the initial enertia does countinue to carry the story, but the secondry hook, or plot if you like, is kind of vague. Yes they've decided to be heros from a prohercy, but what actually is the goal in a more tangible sense? Like is there a particular place or demon enemy we need to reach? We have the intial hook, the duo meet > since then its very, 'and then', demon stalker, brdige collapse, dragon attack, parachute through the top of what is presumable a barrier with no roof, investigate homestead, meet its inhabitants for lunch etc.
Thats not a deal breaker per se, again short chapters helps alot here😎, but I'd definetly be hoping that we get a more clear moment of the two deciding on a speicific goal for the plot to follow pretty soon❤️🙌👍💪
