This one is missing the comedy tag lol

 

[aixt]

it is good unexpectedly, good story pacing, non mundane story, good art, and not being a borderline pornhwa.

 

[kamishiniyari]

surprisingly fun

Our MC has the most amazing collection of derp faces, too.

This series is more enjoyable to read than it has any right to. I could probably detail out a list of overused tropes or weak writing but frankly it doesn't even matter. It does a surprisingly good job of balancing the seriousness to situational humor and having characters do what they need to do when they need to do it without too much fatigue. There were many times I should have been frustrated seeing one of the dumb higher ups making yet another attempt to flex his power but I never really got tired of seeing people get the rug pulled out from under them.

One thing I will note more specifically is that this series leans very hard into that trope where someone does things for selfish reasons and somehow everyone around manages to always interpret it as a selfless or heroic act. Naturally not everyone likes the MC but it's one of the better uses of the 'constant misunderstandings' type of trope I've seen, and in a junk player awakener story no less.

Also, the MC is very much unlikeable and hopefully unrelatable at the start but one of the interesting parts of the journey is him being forced to be selfless to achieve his own goals, and the gradual change in his perspective. He doesn't just turn a new leaf right off the bat and is periodically compelled to reflect on how he did things the first time around but with new insights from his 2nd time's perspective.

I think one of the aspects to this series' writing I like best is him concluding on his own that many times, it's more practical and objectively more effective to NOT just treat the elites at the top as untouchable celebrities, and actually taking care of the people behind the scenes who make things easier for the ones in the public eye. This would be a meaningless development from one of the usual copy paste Purity Sue heroes who constantly sacrifice themselves for the good of everyone else around them and treat such a thought as a given. It's maybe not a huge development here but it's still somewhat meaningful.

nightscans have deleted this from their website. flamescans has gone completely dark. does anybody know if there other groups translating this? (although unlikely, it seem there is an official english version. although it stops at season 1 for now)

It might reappear on Nightscans maybe they are just hiding the good stuff and waiting a bit. If they don't maybe other group will resume the TL...

Did you check nightscan discord ? Maybe they can answer your questions.

you were right. it did return. I still haven't found out a reason it was removed / hidden for a while, but its available again

I... I still feel a bit weird with the art style, but this is surprisingly enjoyable, much better than some of the higher rated ones.

It's a lot better than the rating suggests. Adjusted against other popular manhwa, I'd say it's closer to an 8.2. It falls short in character depth and uniqueness (but that's kind of just a systemic manhwa issue).

 

[Vogotok]

I really do not understand how this can have this big rating. It is not even that enjoyable. The story progression is all over the places, the typical bad guy > good guy revenge > bad guy out cycle....tried till like chapter 75, could not do more. Boring.
