Chastised for being a piece of shit, so lets be even a bigger piece of shit on the re-run, surely nothing will go wrong.

I don't get this line of thinking, and how this manga is supposed to be great. There's no great hurdle to overcome, no hellish trial to forge the character. At single digits he is somehow able to threaten those 50 times his levels, and then he gets +100 levels right after thanks to a hilariously badly explained system and its not even 20 chapters in. The story implies that he has always been a piece of crap since the beginning, but the flashbacks infer otherwise, and there has been no indication of any event that warped his morality: he's just bad because hes bad.
And then my general gripe with these kinds of stories: how the fuck did the MC remember 10 years worth of information, down to the minuscule details, and yet cant seem to plan ahead 10 minutes. It seems as if the character just "remembers" random events that created and tacked on without any planning just to move the plot...

I'm only partway though but I've gotten far enough to get an idea of what this is. I've just skimmed a few of the early comments and what I've seen there tells me people didn't really get it (except maybe the ones that read novels or something). See, the MC being punished isn't even the real point. It's fine if he suffers for his evil choices but he'll suffer if he's good too. This whole 'classroom' experience is entirely dedicated to humbling the wannabe heroes and it invariably does this via suffering.

No, the real point is that the 'educators' here lack the imagination to deal with someone who can still accomplish his goals without following the railroad tracks they've prepared. For the sake of reaching an ending, I can only assume this 'playthrough' will fully resolve whether they give up, manage to teach their lesson a new way, or if he finds a third option that suppresses or bypasses them entirely.

To be sure, this dude is an asshole. But (assuming his memory isn't entirely fictional) it looks like he at least has legitimate complaints for his treatment. It's one thing to reward a hero for altruistic and selfless behaviors and it's another to take advantage of someone, sometimes abusing them in the process, just because someone ELSE decided their role was to be altruistic and selfless. Certainly a lot of the victims of MC's asshole behavior could not claim to be anything remotely good or noble themselves.

In short, I appreciate when people get exactly the result their behaviors deserve. The NPCs of this world might very well have gotten a noble hero if they only treated him the way a noble hero ought to be treated. Instead they used him as a punching bag and this is the result.

Read the novel already quite a while ago, I enjoyed this story all the way to the end. There's just something about a psycho mc after having to read about insufferable shounen protagonists. Kinda annoying skip on mangadex though, fks sake. Just upload all chapters, not as if the translators have any real right to keeping their translation on their own site since they don't own the work. Not saying I don't appreciate their work, I do, but they don't really have any right to not have it posted wherever as they don't own it, at best it's just a hobby where they hope for donations, not a legal translation unless it's licensed. I understand letting translators keep it on their site for a while, but not once newer chapters are translated and they're not even translating anymore.

The webtoon did cut a bit of his inner monologues, but he isn't really an asshole, he knows what the people there are like...The story is quite slow at showing the flashbacks from his first run because he doesnt like to think about them, he has PTSD and severe trauma from it...He's also much more serious in the novel, which makes his conclusions about how things should be done to be funnier imo...At the end of the novel the people recover their memories of him from his previous runs and there are a lot of people he helped and that were good guys,The "regression" thing is one of the things he hates most because he lost all of the good connections he has made there and is forced to go back to the bad ones...

why the harem tag...?
He gets "Rice Cake" the Portable Angel, the First Spirit, and the Demon King's daughter as lovers for starters.

The Official Website has the series marked as "Complete" so hopefully it's not cancelled and is actually just on a long hiatus.

Why the "cancelled tag"? Did the adaptation seriously get dropped? Is the novel at least finished? Can someone also spoil the original novel ending for me(if the novel's story is over).

Generally speaking, MC is a normal human who isn't typical conventional loser isekai hero. He genuinely loves his life and family and wishes to return. Author makes a satire about typical isekai heroes (Korean author making fun of Japanese isekai authors).

In truth i actually am more empathetic towards MMC here than in almost any other isekai. I would even stress to say that if i was thrown to that world after 10 years of his experience i would more than likely also kill my comrades if they were such asses as he described. After having a re-run i would lose any feelings over people in that world, i would treat it something like a game, a shitty game that i was forced to play.

People who complain about him not having any struggles with fighting are clearly people who should stick to naruto, bleach or any other action battle type mangas. This manwha is action battle type but at the same type it's a philosophical with huge amounts of satire towards typical isekai and it's fans.

I genuinely think that if majority of modern people would be thrown to fantasy-middle ages kingdom their amazement would quickly turn to utter disappointment. That reference about flushing toilets (during first chapters) is basically a reference to comforts of modern day life, i would rather be lower-middle; middle class than a noble in middle ages.
