Fire Punch unique, and are why I rate it a 6, but you have to decide that for yourself. Many people try to ascribe a lot of different themes to this manga, themes that I don’t necessarily agree with.

At Behemdorg, Agni decides to free the slaves. While fighting Behemdorg's blessed, Agni's flames burn the city down, killing the residents. Agni defeats the blessed and the slaves are transported by an ally, who also views Agni as a god they come to call 'Fire Punch'. Judah, no longer needing to maintain a facade of divine revelation, sets herself on fire using Agni's flames, but is stopped when the Ice Witch beheads her. The Ice Witch reveals she is a fan of Agni and disappears, taking Judah's severed head with her. EditSynopsis In a world ravaged by ice and snow, civilization is on the brink of collapse, thanks to the elusive Ice Witch. Fighting against the cold has brought out the worst in humanity, leading to cults, violence, and the persecution of the "Blessed"—those born with supernatural powers.Meanwhile, Agni calms Togata down, as they had been planning to abandon him after their secret was revealed. The two reconcile and Agni declares he is going to confront Doma, which Togata is eager to record for their film. They find Doma, now caring for a number of children, and after a brief conversation, Agni resolves not to kill him so as to end the cycle of vengeance. However, he is overcome by his memories of Luna's death, and ends up killing Doma and many of the children in a fugue state, recorded by Togata. Upon awakening, Agni tries to kill himself by walking into a lake; Togata drags him out, but catches on fire in the process and dies. I think Fire Punch is an amazing manga. I would recommend it if you like stuff on the weirder side like Chainsaw Man, then definitely read it.
