how is this even rated so high? the story writing is so generic and full of deus ex machinas + clichés
The short answer, because it's quirky and fun.
The Long answer, this series is different enough from most other comics. Prepare for my weeaboo TED Talk!
Art is different than most. The odd 2D over 3D LSD infused backgrounds are confusing and hilarious. It tries to be original and that lends to its strength. Though super disorienting at times as you try to figure out what the hell the artist is trying to do.
Also, the character design is super weird. They start off looking really skewed for a human but are consistently skewed. Artist does get better and you can see it. I cannot complain too much since I can't draw better. So A+ as I like the character designs, the fun mecha designs, and the free LSD background effects!
Characters start off generic but evolve into premium-grade generic people. The characters don't really change, but they do gain fun traits. ie Golden Hamster goes from weaponized loli, to weaponized gangster loli. I will never diss the kids hitting people in the nuts with bricks. That is a gold standard. 16/10, would see bad guys get bricked in the nuts again.
The story is entertaining enough. MC goes off with his 3000 female harem to punch pretentious snobs in the face. Repeat forever. It is fun when it occurs, but takes its sweet time as the chapter count increases. The different worlds and species are always fun to see portrayed, and often surprises me. Intergalactic Basketball with a chicken, bull, and they don't even translate the clucks. A+!
Are there problems with this story? OMG YES! Soooo many problems. Inconsistent powers, inconsistent world, dumb AF characters like the stepson of Himeko (leader of Three Legged Crow), and so much Pro-Communist BS nonsense that you could fertilize 3000 planets worth of farmland. I waiting to see that stepson, Zhu Zi, get nutted with a brick.
Though Zhu Zi's odd super pro-peace opinions make sense. People don't always understand the need for military or violence. Power struggles will never go away, and if you pretend everything is super nice, you gonna get turned into a conquered slave.
The story's intense need to relate to history also makes it rough. ie, because a maiden for a tomb 3000 years ago existed, we now have the power of miracles! Like the Miracle Laser Cannon DX 3000! It runs on the tears of maidens in the rain.
The fun parts are still fun. I will concede that the slower release pace, and slower story in general, really highlights the faults with this series.
TLDR; because it's quirky and fun.
I appreciate ProjectScans for continuing this series!
Thanks to Group 01000001, Hunterfansub SCAN, Translation Drone I, and allenallenallen333 for bringing and translating the series.
