Endless Alchemy Mystic Forest is one of the few greens I have and I rather like it. It's a nice dark green, sort of hunter green adjacent with just a hint of coppery sheen. This one is very well-behaved and I haven't had any issues with it in any pen I've used it with over the past year.

The only downside is that sometimes it's a little too dark on a page and it's hard to tell it's green.

Photo of two ink swatch cards and a chromatography strip. Both cards have text reading "Endless Alchemy Mystic Forest" followed by an X and curlicue in a stub and EF nib width.  Overall the ink is a deep, dark green with very a few darker green areas were more ink has settled, and small amounts of coppery reflective sheen in a few areas.  The top card is an Iroful swatch card with an outline of a paint palette. Inside the palette is mostly filled in with swirls of hunter green ink and areas reflecting copper. Some areas with more ink are even darker green, and some areas outlined with a ring of copper.  The bottom is a Col-O-Ring swatch card. It has a large vaguely circular blob of ink that appears to be very dark green, almost black, with some areas having a vaguely copper sheen.  The chromatography strip starts a light blue, then goes clear, then gradually turns to yellow, then green, and then cyan along the leading edge.

Microscope photo of ink on the Iroful swatch card. Paper fibers are visible.  On the right and far left, the ink is blue-green and the paper fibers are lighter green.  Between those two areas is a strip that is very reflective and copper.
