Reception
Robbie Pleasant of Multiversity Comics praised the world building, pacing, and tension, though he also felt the story was a bit predictable. Pleasant also praised Kurazono's artwork, especially its character designs, scenery, and panel sizing.[1] Samantha King of Screen Rant compared the opening test in Jiangshi X to Naruto's opening test, while noting the higher stakes present in Jiangshi X.[10]
