after reading up to and a little past the wuxia arc and reading other comments i really think this is like a 3/10 at best. there were a lot of stupid plot points and bad writing in the whole thing but it didn't start bothering me until the wuxia arc 'cause i think wuxia is some of the most 8th grade syndrome edgelord bs.
the whole story is kind of contrived, the writing is not amazing, the absolute best parts are 5/10 but there's so many dumb moments that overall it's gotta be a 3/10.
it's clear that this isn't a story written by an author with any kind of passion, it's just a product that a company is creating to produce revenue.
rereading it now 'cause there's a lot more past the wuxia arc and i'm hoping it doesn't stay like this 'cause i'm reading the end of hte wuxia arc and this play pretend bs is some of hte goofiest shit i've ever seen.
