Story seemed a bit boring at first but the art is quite nice and I'm more interested now.

The main character really just sucks an unfathomable amount, and since the entire story revolves around him, it just makes me not care about the story at all. At least the art and the monster designs are top notch.

I think it's really good, but on occasion it's a little... fast? Is that the word for it?

I've noticed that like some chapters have several different plot developments/interactions with seemingly rough/sudden transitions. It's like he's at the office one moment talking to new characters, then another moment he's out in the wild fighting a monster with no delay.

Maybe I'm just reading too fast but it's a little jarring that some interactions just happen so quickly and the story moves on like "snap!"

No, you’re right. The pacing is a bit fast. Especially with how fast Han Maru recovered from his depression. A lot of the story beats feel like they could be stretched out longer, but it seems like they're placing plot points to get it out of the way. Hopefully this doesn't mean that this'll end in 100 chapters though.

Anyway, MC's personality reminds me a lot of Denji from CSM. Sigh... character tropes be troping...

maybe this wasn't selling and they scolded the authors and artists, you can tell that after they beat the cat-demon it suddenly just starts getting super rushed, even the clearly BL thirst traps stopped, i think they'll just focus on the fighting till it ends.

This was a really great manga until chapter 30-40. What happened? The author got Too much inspired from CSM and Jjk. It's like they are writing characters from JJK while writing powers from CSM. Now maybe they got you hyped but I'll add this. The story, power and World building of CSM and Jjk are not great, what's great is their writing. Both of them has a basic story but with an astounding presentation.

I'm saying all this to say this author doesn't have it. Fujimoto is great when working with character interactions while Gege is great when creating climax and hype. This author is probably great at suspense. This reminded me of sort of Ominous Liar but without the comedy. But the author forgo all of it for the gun assassination/Shibuya massacre esque pull right after a Tokyo Ghoul twist.

So what's the problem? The problem is that one of the most original manhwa buildup is followed by the most mainstream sht I have ever seen. I means let's be honest Han Maru's personality was perfect for the story but they had to fk it up with an evolution raksha.
