Reaction to story like this is funny to me. People have a weird idea that an mc of a story has to be good or "right" in some way.
I understand what you're saying, the goddess in the manga even states that he is a self-centered human being who will do anything for his own personal gain and throw away anyone deemed useless which makes him one of the most powerful people and have one of the most powerful souls, but there is no real reasoning as to why this character acts the way he does which makes him a boring edgefest chuunibyou there isn't anything complex to him, he is completely a 1 dimensional character who his sole purpose of acting is just because I felt like it there are characters like that and are written in a better way for example joker deadpool it makes him feel like a character who is an asshole and edgy for the sake of being just that there are way better ways to write characters with this personality type one I didn't mention is alucard who the author takes clear inspiration from almost to the point of ripping off some parts of hellsing like the symbols on the glove which ill give him credit where its due since he changed the concept for them a bit and the wolves that he summons are just kind of like alucards power but less interesting and since he can create servants the author I guess needed to pump out more panels for the chapter he just ripped of the policewomen scene from the first chapters of hellsing even to the point of asking if the second princess is a virgin the author has fascinating concepts themes a great art style and an interesting way of twisting troupes, but it is ruined with an edgy boring MC who really doesn't say anything interesting that hasn't been said or done before a supporting cast with only 1 actually well written character i really hope and feel like this manga could be saved and turn out to be perfect if the author had more confidence in writing original ideas the concept of the second princess being nothing more than a discarded puppet that was only being used as a second plan and seeing her develop even just a little through the 22 chapters i read gave me hope that this could be good but so far it just kind of looks like the author doesn't really know how to write a MC yet he's just a mish mash of boring over done concepts with a sprinkle of fairy dust from Linkin Park and stolen ideas from better written MCs but i hope he can turn this around since it looks like its not to far inam I misreading it then? i feel like the story never tries to say "MC good," but rather lets MC say the bullshit he wants and force it through by overwhelming force anyways, because objectively everyone besides aliyah (and the other heroes) is more or less an asshole
like, the philosophy on a meta pov is nothing more than "at the end of the day, ideals only go so far as power does" which is very applicable.
i would hesitate to criticize someone else's writing when i can't be bothered to press the "enter" button twice.

SPOILERIt's one thing to have an edgy mc, but it's a whole other beast to have the manga glorify MC performing sexual assault. Insane incel behavior. Anyone who actually likes this mc should consider talking to real people.
