Sometime I forgot Albus also feel sad and anger

Revolve used to have consequences. This past arc has shown us that any new character can be pulled from the ether and used as a revolve battery until they run out, leading to a potential trap of introduce new character => make them use their revolve until they disappear => repeat.

Except Rayman's role in that link is that he was tapped as the Hero before Albus and the only reason this is a surprise is because Albus's party Revolved back to before he became the Hero outside the normal usage of Revolve in a Hail Mary maneuver that took all of their magic combined and they weren't even sure it would work.

We know Rayman's story and got almost nothing on his original party. The odds of winding the timeline back to before our protagonists were even born to get Rayman's predecessor are very low.

Its one thing when he use it and gone but when other use it for him he cant bare it huh?

Watch out, the onion-cutting ninjas are at it again

To me the "no consequence" comments are odd given we literally just read a chapter about the very permanent(?) consequences
If anything, it was before it that we didn't have "proof" of them, only the first hero's words and the memory leak side-effect, so on that front I will agree the author didn't do a good job at showing (not telling) the stakes at play

One of the few manga where the premise of returning to save someone doesn't feel repetitive and there are twist as well

Those are some dark looks Albus was giving the whole chapter... I hope Fiona is going to be able to keep him centered or we're headed for a "Albus goes crazy" themed loop.

All of the characters have flat character arcs and they aren't much more than their stereotypes. They obviously have their backstories and what not, but we don't see them in new situations or interact with new characters or even each other much, obviously, because it's a timeloop so we spend it in the same place with the same people and for most of it their memories even got reset too. With the time looping plot, everything is kind of constant, nothing really progresses plot or character wise, which makes it somewhat hard to be invested outside of the gimmick. The series also kinda lost some steam with the Albus self-sacrifice cop-out.

This series has been going on for nearly 70 chapters now, and it's pretty good, pretty well-written, and with a cool premise. Even still, I feel like there's just some spark that it's edging close to, but not yet reaching, that'd make it a hit. I don't know if it's too late now with how long it's been going on, my instinct is that with a proper consistent overarching antagonistic force (beyond the demon king), or some way of making the journey itself feel more substantial or higher-stakes, even if the flashbacks are pretty good. Right now it kinda feels like we get a lot of lore, then the final battle with whatever form the demon king is, then repeat.

my previous message was supposed to be a reply to this, oops

Well I kinda agree. Its one of the manga I often can't be bothered to read until it has at least 5+ more released chapters.

I think the main issue is that the author always uses the same formula and after 70 chapters, many readers figured out what it is. It is incredibly hard to write a repeat/redo time travel story that stays fresh and interesting the whole time, so I don't think this will change and im not particular bothered by it.

The only one that really changed its formula all the time and kept me on the edge of my seat was summer time rendering.
