Oh hey. I guess I partially called it yesterday.

So while he didn't get sneaked into the Super special SSS class, they decided to go straight with the incompetence to generate an obviously broken system and tossed him to the F class but with super competent classmates or in this case the love interest.

Really she was either going to be part of the SSS class and be one of, if not the only, good person amongst a bunch of up their own ass nobles, or in this case we're going the full underdogs are actually super powerful trope route, and the MC is the defacto leader who has pushed up all of those underdogs to greater heights. There will probably be a tournament arc at some point.

Like I said last chapter. This story started right off the bat as nothing but a cliche. Perhaps it could've been a well written cliche, but the moment he got adopted by relatives of a family of nobles that saw him as a demon to be killed, it kinda lost all cohesion and ever since then has been doing nothing more but show that it is intent on just skipping logic, proper world building, characterization or consistency just so it can RTA it's way to the author's preferred cliche or feel good trope.

Anyone who was hoping for well made trash, abandon all hope, and honestly if you had any hope past the scene where he saved the girl and escaped afterwards without any incident or logical consequences from revealing his all attribute magic abilities and somehow are still expecting this to be halfway decently written story...

I'm glad you began reading Isekai or Fantasy style stories recently. I hope these tropes are fresh to you and entertaining.

... At least the teacher has a nice legs on page 12.

Ah I’ve found another person that likes to bitch about a series they dislike. You do realize that you can easily just drop the series and don’t need to announce to us how much you dislike the series right? The funniest thing is that if the mangaka did go the route of putting him into a special class or even just a high ranked class you’d still be bitching about that. I’ve seen it happen on series that do that so don’t try to pretend you wouldn’t bitch no matter which way the series went.

For the record we have no idea about anything for that girl other than she has a large amount of power. It also makes sense that nothing happened to him as no one other than a handful of people even knew about him, even less people know he has all attributes and the girl did look for him but couldn’t find him. What exactly were you expecting to happen to him after he saved the girl?

Btw we’re only on the 5th chapter so expecting there to be large amounts of world-building this soon into the series is comically stupid on your part. The series is just starting off and series typically take longer than 5 chapters to start worldbuilding.

Btw it’s funny how you complain about how the series isn’t consistent but provide zero example of how it’s been inconsistent. Same with characterization and logic. What specifically is the mangaka not being consistent or logical about? If you’re going to bitch about something at least back up your bitching with evidence.

As of now the series is fine. Neither great nor bad. It’s the way most series go and I do hope the mangaka gets a decent amount of volumes done as I want them to make money off of this so they can maybe go on to do something better.

While I disagree on what he said, I also hate this YoU cAn JuSt DrOp iT mentality, these are comments where you comment on your opinions, this logic is also broken, just as he coudve ignored how much he disliked this series you couldve also ignored his comment, you are doing the same thing as him, commenting on a thing that made you mad or that you dislike, which in my opinion there is nothing wrong with, there are many holes in his argument which you can debunk(which you did), just dont use this stupid flaud and infuriating logic

Let him have his fun.

it's entertaining to me either way.

Also he approached my statement in the wrong way. He assumed I dislike this overall.

I'm still entertained by the manga. But I also am not blind to the fact that it is just a speedrun through the most predictable trope and the writing is pretty poor. Part of my commentary was also as a pre-emptive statement to some comment I would see in the previous chapters of people being somehow let down by what is fairly clearly a standard one size fits all isekai setup like Smartphone in Another World. But y'know, like how you can have fun watching The Room, you can have fun reading badly written Isekai.

I think he mainly failed to understand that my commentary was that it was done sloppily and that others shouldn't have been approaching it with high hopes, especially not with how the first few chapters portrayed the story.

Tropes are just tropes, and it's not bad to use them. But if the story doesn't take the proper time and pacing for the story and just shortcuts everything. The audience is left to fill in the gap with the standard elements of the tropes. The thing though is that this manga seems to be trying to play mostly straight and isn't a gag manga, so the level of self awareness is fairly low in the writing.

Personally, I'm more curious in which way you disagree with what I said, if it's what i said whole or if it's just parts of my statements.

And who knows, maybe the world building will get better, the plot contrivances will get fleshed out and explained. Or maybe the novel it was based on had a lot more details that were omitted in the manga for the purpose of speeding up to the Good part while forgetting to properly set up the foundation.

Just some parts, for example being adopted by a caring family, I thought it was very sweet and wholesome and not really demerit to the story, about judging fmc because too little informations are available and i disagree in terms of you not loving and giving up all hope on this manga just after 5 chapters (Which was just my misunderstanding as you said you are entertained with the story) while I do agree that cliches could have been done much much better, i understand and agree for most part where you are coming from but its also just 5 chapters, so personally I will wait and see

I also misunderstood some of your takes so my disagreements aren't really that strong I just got mad at YoU cAn JuSt DrOp iT thing which when I see I get so mad and just see red

You can tell the artist isn't a woman by the outfit designs. She's practically wearing a swimsuit under a shawl (?) and pants. Yeah, it looks nifty, but all I'm thinking when I look at that is, "What happens when she needs to pee?" Unless it's got snaps in the crotch like baby clothes that's gonna be a pain.

Oh, I don't think there's a demerit to him being adopted to a caring family. That's awesome.
I just think the path to get him there made no sense. He was pretty much set to be discarded and erased from fearful birth parents who literally believed him to be a demon, a plight on mankind.
That's usually something you would try to erase by doing something like abandoning the child in a dangerous forest or something else and falsifying a miscarriage, not have them be raised by other family members. Doing so as nobles they're opening up a can of worms on themselves.

You could argue that perhaps they weren't the brightest of nobles or didn't have the guts to kill a child or had a soft spot, but it's all left to reader interpretation since no information was given. Basically this is what's been happening, the author has jumped to key trope points of other popular Isekai stories and left the path leading there up to interpretation, ergo the lack of world building. There's no solid structuring, only key points to rely on, so the foundation currently in the story is extremely wonky.

Like building a suspension bridge using only rope for you to ride a bike through. Maybe it'll hold, but everything to date in it's construction seems like it would fall apart with some weight and we have yet to see the author come in with more material to help improve the bridge. Of course, that could potentially come at a later part in the story. Who knows. It's just that right now it feels like a rushed construction job and in the last chapter in particular, a lot of people noticed some cracks in the foundation that worried them a lot.

And perhaps to clarify. "Abandon all hope ye who enter here" would be better surmised as, don't get your hopes up and just take the story at face value. It is popcorn trash and maybe if the story tightens up and grows beyond the focus on going through tropes, that would help it get a more defined identity.

Finally, I do understand your irritation in that regards. I'm also usually in the viewpoint of just going for open discourse.
