"In the harsh region known as the borderlands, humans must fight an endless battle against demi-human creatures that come at them relentlessly, intent on taking their land and their gods. A young boy named Kai, fighting to defend his village, sustains a life-threatening injury that causes him to regain memories from a past life. If you're not a guardian bearer, it's like you're playing life on hard mode... Kai's newfound knowledge gives him a new sense of the unfair "rule set" that governs the world around him. One thing is clear: For those without a god to serve as their guardian, life is a constant struggle for survival. Thus begins the epic tale of a young boy's ascent into a vast world filled with magic, bloodshed, and mystery."

A somewhat bland intro, I'm hoping this is a 'greatness from small beginnings' situation... for the show, not the protagonist, to be clear.

Some fairly standard fantasy troops on the ground action where the main character is a simple grunt in the grand scheme, but things get strange when he suddenly gets... memories of Tokyo and... learns how to shoot flames? I, like you, have always suspected the Japanese were beings of pure magic, but this is a bit on the nose, don't ya think? Head shaking aside, the introduction of magic into this otherwise magicless fantasy world could be interesting, and some care has already been displayed in characterization and world building so I remain hopeful that this could develop into something. More long running fantasy series (which this feels like the beginning of) will always be welcome.
