It had so much promise, but it screwed it all up in chapter 12 with that "magic of friendship" BS fairy tale ending. It was awkwardly placed (like, there wasn't really an arc in the first place to warrant it). Not to mention the theme is so stupid too.

The only good thing is the art, and maybe the attitude of the MC ( Atleast he didn't whine alot or always seem like he has angry issue )
The theme is stupid, like, how the fuxk they think letting emo teen be responsible for the end of the world is good ?
The power system is hard to understand too.
Seriously, the only thing good in this series is the art.

Too rushed, shit happens and you just get flashback glimpses and 2-line speech bubbles(Like they are retconning shit to fit the plot). I even searched it in another site thinking that sum pages were missing. Maybe it gets better later, but first impressions matter ya'know.

Actual banger.
The previous comments sound like they've read an entirely different comic.

the plot is actually building up pretty well in this one, and i'll be honest, the plot is in NO WAY rushed at all, there's a lot of long chapters and we got a lot of part about MC adapting to his situation by growing from training, learning, and practical experience; he literally went from zero to hero through a lot of training and ironically, meddling with the storyline. Even if some people feels it is kinda rushed, think about it, this dude messed with the timeline since the beginning and butterfly effect is watching him with popcorns in hand, and there is a time skip during the summer vacation that jumps into fall or next semester, but tbh, i'd rather have that than some slow paced and probably full of drama training arc filler.
and ngl, it's also sorta close to "I Killed an Academy Player" in terms of theme, the difference only lies in the MCs' action and way of thinking though, in IKAP the MC is actively trying to prevent the ruin of the game universe as well as to prevent the GMC from messing stuffs up by killing him, it's also to keep his innocence safe from getting geh'd by the obsessive GMC too tbf lmao, and he did keep himself away from messing with the storyline at first but had enough of GMCs shenanigans.
While in here, the MC is legit focusing to stay alive, graduate with his diploma, and try to not mess with the story progression since he is so damn confidence that his existence won't mess the storyline (you thought lmfao), little did he know that by staying in the forest instead of leaving as god intended, he pretty much changed A LOT of things already, mind you that all he did at first was build a simple shelter, go fishin, and huntin to keep himself alive while trying to stay out of the story.
SPOILER ALERT: WAIFU PROGRESSION
as the golden rule of manhwa goes, MC will get AT LEAST 1 WAIFU per story, and mf got 3 in line (1 trad wife, 1 rich girl type, and 1 daughter/cat type) by the end of the recent chapter (27), and possibly another one after stage 2's arc is finished. And yet our chad right here, only focuses on IMPROVING his QOL by focusing on working on a shed that he built, then it's furnishing, then keeping foods stock in check, and finally to graduate with a diploma (also to make sure the daughter/cat type fed lol.)
And as another reminder, everything that we see/reads are from the POV of our MC's and anyone that is DIRECTLY in his proximity/involved in the arc, meaning, pretty much everyone OUTSIDE that circle still knows him by rumors' of him being this jerks and losers piece of noble. It's pretty funny to see the MC got misunderstanding piled up against him from time to time too kekw.

All the talk about the story that he knows, the plot and the characters, Ed’s expectations or attempts to avoid changing things. It’s a bit tedious at this point. It’s as if I am being reminded at every turn, in every chapter, with summaries and exposition about a story that could be. All the while what’s actually happening is almost an afterthought. It’s not fun.
It got a hint of slop but is still one of the better ones in "reincarnate as villain" stories imo.
art is great but the plot progresses a lil bit fast like, the girls getting romantically attracted to mc all of a sudden in a single chap. all in all, it's already better than all of the cheat skill shits with mc actually struggles and grows. 7/10

other websites have up to chapter 53 or so so i'll rate based off of all 53.
At first I was kind of upset at how much it rushes things compared to the novel, so I started to read the novel again(hadn't read it in a while). and you know what?
I'm glad it does now, 'cause while it definitely is skipping some build up here and there, I would prefer that over how much the novel author writes. That MF is the most meandering refuses-to-get-to-the-point writer I have ever seen. Setting up the scene is fine, getting poetic is fine, but at a certain point you gotta just spit your shit! and the manwha does that, thank goodness.
TL'DR it rushes a bit but it's still good

I've read the novel and I got to say there's no time travel part except for
anyway I need to say this is a good series to read the novel, highly recommend it except for using yonder part but if you know where to look you can find the full translation.
after reading the novel I will say, belle is the best girl in the entire series you will understand once you reach a certain part (I assume it will be on chapter 70-80 on manhwa). also I gotta say, I love adelle sh-... she is the type of character that I love and hate the most.
i read this thing 8 months ago so I probably make a mistake or something. ALSO AUTHOR FFS PLS CONTINUE THE WN AFTERSTORY, YOU ARE IN THE MIDDLE OF BEST GIRL ARC ARGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHH
iirc in the afterstory, lucy traveled to different timeline accidentally (magic accident). long story short when she was a child she heard something from basement and her grandpa check it out, he come out with a hat that lucy always wear amd give it to her. well it was given to her grandpa by lucy herself when she time traveled to the past. its just beg the question, where do the hat originally come from because past lucy got it from grandpa, grandpa got it from future lucy, future lucy grew up with the hat
