The quality has dropped significantly in this arc. "Hurr durr this guy is like an ant but I'm going to take a bajillion chapters, where I keep getting pushed around, before squishing him." -MC

The story has become increasingly stupid the longer it goes on for, The author keeps having to incapacitate the main character to create false tension and danger for the other characters. Also the main fights from the last 20 or so chapters are bordering on dragon ball z levels of bullshit, there are chapter long power ups, each new chapter begins with a preview of the ending of the last chapter, there a ton of yelling and posing, it's complete shit.

The MC is too strong. I liked the teamwork but MC makes it pointless. as of ch66 the conflict is dragging out and i lost track of what it's about.
Usually, i would drop, but i enjoyed the earlier chapters and maybe it can course-correct after this arc.

The DOWNSIDE of TOO OP MC.... Less screen time, only come to finish the job...
MC got trapped too many times or got hindered too many times...
Too much side character screen time, the one that gonna die in few hits talking too much..

Overall ... TOO OP makes it a stale story

The story itself is a pretty classic reincarnation thingy but without the reincarnation, but the execution leaves a lot to be desired in terms of structure and pacing.

There are lots of reused panels and padding; the chapters are short and there are endless attempts at cliff-hangers that break any natural flow to the plot. Half of the time things just happen for "plot reasons" and feels like filler to fill the page quota or something like that. The art progressively becomes worse as well, which reinforces that impression. The structure reminds of the anime-version of 'Bleach' in how it repeats the same panels and uses any excuse to fill out a chapter or two with nothing, which is not at all a good thing. Can't say I've seen that in a long-strip web comic before. All that being said, it's fine as long as you can binge it and speed scroll through the repetitions and filler -- I wouldn't want to read this one on a weekly or even longer basis though.

Translation is good, I haven't thought about it even-- which is exactly how a translation should be.
