Overall? A masterpiece. One of the things that I hate about some manhuas, is that all of the female characters are absolutely thicc and the male characters are extremely forgettable (except for, of course, the mc). This author and artist? The main men, women, supporting characters? eye candy. Great balance.
Art is overall great.

Story is great. I don't understand why the translator has to ruin it with their obnoxious watermark

not sure why everyone is saying its really good, I read up to chapter like 50 or so a while back and this has some of the stupidest writing that directly contradicts itself and most of the story takes place in all of the character's asides to themselves??? literal slop.

One of great manhwa, i wanna remind you this is Comedy Manhwa, so it has less action more talk. Also this manhwa has great butt drawing

The world is basically a mixture of SCP, Bloodborne, and Lovecraftian horror...but comedy. It mainly focuses on how a man who's obsessed with books gets isekai-ed into this world, and through mainly misunderstandings gets thought to be some sort of darkly powerful being. However, the books that he considers normal are actually eldritch tools of power for those of this world, and they see it as such.

As for if he ever realizes the truth of the dark fantasy he's now a part of, well:
He starts to realize around chapter 100. For most of the beginning chapters, he has no idea. He's somewhat good at reading people, but makes assumptions in accordance with earth common sense. Like...he even thinks an elf that walks in his bookstore is some kind of cosplay. A lot of mental gymnastics on both his part and on the other characters.

I'm personally really glad that the story is willing to let go of the "MC has no idea how things actually work!! Yet all these OP characters surround him because they think he's even more OP!??!?" trope. You can only stretch that one so far before the characters have to be really, really stupid. And that just gets annoying as a reader - like a running joke that's been repeated too many times and isn't funny anymore.

edit: Ah, also, the art is absolutely full of weird angles from the artist, for both male and female characters. Some are more experimental and horror-focused, while some are the standard fanservice kind. So take that as you will.

Was super good with great premise for a while, but of course the translation quality plummeted when riahan took over and somehow lost half the names. then they had the gall to shoehorn in a really shitty censor for something that other than size wasnt even lewd. Sorry dropped
