huh- I wonder how warped the original story got. I like that the guy has integrity to the concept though

A classic story about a "hero" forced to return to his home world and the royal family took all the fame

I don't know about the story, but I think I will still put this on the plan to read list. Just because the cover looks awesome and I like "the shadow eminence". Although the story will probably be pretty different.

The art is nice, the plot is interesting despite being an isekai... Ok, I'm in. This looks like it'll be a lot of fun.

So this is not the MC fault at all nor his organization but instead the royal family's. They spread lies to make themselves seem useful when most likely they were the cause of the heroes dying and needed the corpse king to wipe up after them

it's like Shadow Garden and Misfit of Demon King Academy had a baby and this manga was born

Alright this is interesting. Also glad he ended things quick and not like some typical “imma keep it secret” and let it drag a few chapters

Dude, you can't just throw out a line like "I've taken a total of 1,458 lives in the month I've been here" and not elaborate!

Like what, he's been sitting in the woods committing mass murder for a month? Or is he counting animals/monsters in that?
I think his ability doesn't care about what is killed, just that it was slain by MC

Why is he cringing at his name? That's not the reaction i thought someone who is the last surviving person in a group called the corpse king will act like when hearing that name.

If they atleast played the trauma of this straight, even just his name id like it more, i want more angst. Still good though and I feel like we'll get those scenes down the line.
Agreed, I'm not feeling the trauma or the comedy. I think if the author picked either the sole survivor angle or fixing past cringe this would be a better series because the two tones really clash.

Well, if that was the story that was passed along, then I think even real Helheim going on a rampage would be mostly justifiable.

I can only hope that MC does not think himself above taking revenge for that. Because revenge is cringe or some other shit.

I'm still not sure what would the tone of the story be. It's currently leaning more to action+comedy, but I wouldn't mind it being darker and more gruesome, so it can feel different than Eminence in the Shadows After Story.

yeah personally the joke about being too hungry to move seems work fine if it's a few days tops, but month?
