Radiant is a full-length manga by French author Tony Valente. Radiant was created for Japanese audiences out of respect for Japan. Now, with his long-awaited Japanese anime adaptation confirmed, the manga artist is on a roll.
Synopsis

Seto, a wizard living in the rural town of Pompo Hills, is a resident wizard. In this world, monsters known as "Nemesis" exist and plague the people, but only wizards can defeat them. However, just like Nemesis, wizards are hated and are persecuted, discriminated against, and ostracized. As you can see, although Radiant is a typical shonen manga, it also contains some very heavy and deep themes.

Radiant Top 10 Quotes: "You've been blessed with a great teacher."

This quote comes from Yaga, an elderly wizard and friend of Alma's who she meets at Artemis Academy. In fact, Alma had equipped Seto's gloves with the ability to control magical power (Fantasia) in order to protect him. Most wizards wear gloves when casting magic, but Seto can cast magic with his bare hands, so Alma had engineered this to prevent Seto from being persecuted for this. It was a heartwarming scene that reaffirmed Alma's deep love for him! It really touched me.
Radiant Top 9 Quotes: "The food tastes better after protecting the people of the city."

This is a quote from Radiant's handsome character, Commander Dark Dragunov. Despite knowing that Nemesis will attack the city, Captain Edmund chooses to protect himself over the citizens, but instead, Captain Dragunov steps up and heads off to hunt Nemesis. This is a cool line he says to raise the morale of his subordinates. It's a line that's typical of Captain Dragunov, whose hobby is cooking. He usually seems laid-back and unreliable, but when he's in battle his expression changes and he instantly becomes more like a commanding officer. It's a quote that really hits home.
Radiant Top 8 Quotes: "Alma is amazing, after all."

This is a famous quote from Seto, who fought Nemesis despite being completely battered and bruised. Seto thought he'd defeated Nemesis after a desperate fight, but in fact, he was still alive and attacked Seto, who was unable to move. At that moment, Alma appeared looking cool and killed him instantly with her sword. Seeing this, Seto said this with a slight chuckle. Rather than feeling depressed or sad about the difference in strength between them, he may have felt relieved by the power and presence of Alma, whom he admired. After all, she is practically a mother to him. Even Alma, who is always angry, seemed very kind in this moment. This line conveys the love between father and son and between master and disciple.
Top 7 Quotes from Radiant: "If no one else will, I'll do it! I'll change it!"

This is a famous quote from Seto, in which he tells Yaga of his determination to destroy Radiant. This cool line was uttered in response to Yaga's line, "What can a brat like you do?" It's a positive and optimistic line that is so typical of Seto, who doesn't think about what others think and always acts before thinking. It's a line that makes you want to root for a classic protagonist! It's an exciting line that makes me look forward to Seto's upcoming adventures.
Radiant's Top 6 Quotes: "What a load to carry!"

When Alma first met Seto, she treated him like a burden and had no affection for him. However, this quote shows how much she now loves him as both a son and a disciple. It's a typical Alma-like, contrary line, but it also conveys a lot of love. Seto cried in front of Alma, but Alma cried as if the emotions she had been holding back since she lost sight of Seto were spilling out. There must have been a lot of pain and suffering up until now. Even those may be memories, but I feel they will continue to have a good relationship. What a wonderful parent and child they are!
Radiant Top 5 Quotes: "Thank you for saving me."

This is a quote from Tommy, a boy and friend of Seto who lives in the rural town of Pompo Hills. Only a wizard can defeat Nemesis. However, wizards are just as despised as Nemesis, and are despised as heretics and demons. Alma has defeated many Nemesis, but she has probably never received a thank you. She was surprised by Tommy's words. It must be a happy event for Alma, too, that Seto's actions have changed the feelings of the residents of Pompo Hills. It may be surprisingly difficult to sincerely thank anyone, even if it seems like a simple thing. It was a great scene!
Radiant Top 4 Quotes: "I won't abandon you."
Source: Radiant ©Tony Valente, ANKAMA EDITIONS / NHK, NEP
This is what Seto said with a smile to Tommy, who was unable to move despite being attacked by Nemesis. The "Brave Quartet," a group of four fellow wizards, abandoned the residents and fled. Seto faces off against the giant Nemesis alone, fighting to become a cool wizard. In a critical situation where he may be defeated, he smiles and speaks positive words to Tommy, which are so typical of Seto. So cool!
Radiant's Top 3 Famous Quotes: "You've grown so much!"
Source: Radiant ©Tony Valente, ANKAMA EDITIONS / NHK, NEP
This is a famous quote Alma uttered while looking at Seto's childhood clothes, which she had secretly kept. Given how strict she is with Seto, who is usually reckless, it's hard to imagine that she would have Seto's cute clothes and mementos. Alma had a very calm and gentle expression as she looked at her cute, tattered clothes. We then entered a flashback scene of Alma and Seto, and I couldn't help but smile at Alma's tsundere personality. She really cares about Seto!
Radiant Top 2 Quotes: "I'm not gonna lose! This is my chance to show everyone that wizards are good people!"
Source: Radiant ©Tony Valente, ANKAMA EDITIONS / NHK, NEP
This is a quote from Seto, who is almost getting crushed during his battle with Nemesis. Although they are in a desperate situation, Seto refuses to give up, saying that if he defeats Nemesis, the locals will recognize him as a wizard, and that Alma will recognize him. This is a very moving line from Seto. Seto has experienced more than enough cold treatment for wizards. Each time, it has been a constant stream of frustration and hardship. They say that a crisis is an opportunity. Seto wanted to turn this crisis into an opportunity! It's Seto's positive attitude that allowed him to persevere and not give up. It was a thrilling scene that really conveyed his feelings.
Radiant's Top 1 Quote: "Everyone would be happy if Nemesis were gone! That's why I'm going to become a Nemesis Hunter!"
Source: Radiant ©Tony Valente, ANKAMA EDITIONS / NHK, NEP
This quote takes the top spot! It's a very simple and straightforward quote from Seto. Perhaps this is where Seto's great adventure began. Seto was attacked and fought by Nemesis, which made him realize the threat of Nemesis. Although he is a hated wizard, he decided to become a Nemesis Hunter in order to protect people and become a cool wizard. Alma was amazed, but it was a very courageous decision. You can't help but root for Seto, who continues to move forward even when he is so worn out!
