I hate that I like the premise so much when the execution for this has been absolute dogshit.
Despite only knowing MC as his past life self for a single chapter, I found him much cooler and more interesting than as he is now reborn. It was like his lack of power gave him a quality that's very sorely lacking in his OP self.
Say nothing about the plot, pacing and dialogue.
It has all elements you can think of that would go into a work like this, but instead of taking the time to slowly piece it all together like a well made puzzle, it's like the author slapped them forcefully in place while blind folded and had One Piece playing as background audio.
(And I love One Piece).
Idk why I'm being so critical I think it just got to me because I'm also a fan of the type of character MC wanted to become, and so maybe I had a little expectation going in. Ah well.
Why be maxed at level 99 when you can be level 99 million. These titles are killing me (derogatory). They have jumped so far past the shark, they're practically on the moon at this point.
This story pisses me off lmao. He's too absolute in his "profiling." So many factors he reads as negative or as a personality disorder can just as easily be due to something more benign. Also, it's clear the author only did a cursory search into the mental illnesses they touched on.
Really giving "tell me they don't understand how depression works without telling me they don't understand how depression works."
Authors will really throw the word Genius onto anything. It feels like a meaningless buzzword at this point.
People like it so suck it up ig?? Lmao
Some people like to eat shit . Doesn't make it good . But you do you ig
True, though as trashy and unrealistic the mc is people still eats it lol
Damn, MC is a bit too relatable for me, aha. If you have needed to borrow a sizeable amount of money from a friend or family member, then you know how it can destroy the relationship as well as destroy your self-esteem in the process. It's oddly therapeutic to see him escape the dynamic and find a life for himself solely.
I think I will give the novel a try. While I don't normally like harems, the MC doesn't seem to be a raging pervert so. Which honestly, is the biggest reason why I hate the trope.
Hmmm maybe not...
According to a review on novel updates:
"Live stream comments done wrong. Think "The Darkness was Comfortable to me" type of comments. Just a wall of people commenting about the protagonists harem. There is a little bit of comments about actual plot progression, but the vast majority of it is meaningless jibber jabber."
That might get annoying fast.
The real truth that is MC unknowingly reincarnated into the rofan novel's predecessor: its prequel BL-Harem novel with Mihen as the main character uke. I see you, author.
Mehen = mpreg (▰˘◡˘▰)
Wooow, fuck the Prince. It's disgusting to think how in the original novel all those cruel acts enacted upon Rachel were probably incited by him too. And yet, he got the goddess, the kingdom and a happy ending. Blegh
The lack of "Days till Plague release" ending card has left me oddly bereft. Where did you go? Why are you not here? What am I supposed to do with my attachment to you now?
Guys, don't be like me who started and dropped this several times due to the bad beginning translation. Persevere until at least chapter 20. It evens out. The read becomes much smoother, and you will have no regrets. It's worth it. Halo's passion for music is honestly a joy to read.
Also, halfway through, only half-chapters are uploaded so for the full versions, try mangadex. That's where I read and completed the story. (:
Short chapters with little progression are the bane of my reader existence. Cries.
Its starting to get shorter. :(
