Omg. I have so much to say. This is just a rant of the chapters up to chapter 15.
I was excited because past lives sounded cool, but the way it was done is pretty bad. The 9.2 rating kind of got my hopes up. First of all, this manhwa is fast paced. There were scenes where I felt like I missed a page, like the attack that happened when he was in the taxi. The time skips also just feel like it’s cutting out some moments that should be there.
The main character isn’t even that likable. His first scene where they said he told them he’d do anything and even suggested to do agro, but he complained how they told him to do that? Also, he used up all of their potions. I’m assuming they were telling the truth because why would they lie about that. So... this guy really thought them not paying him wasn’t fair, which okay maybe it isn’t. However, he overstated his abilities *and* used all of their potions, then preceded to get knocked out and do nothing. Dude, that was on you. He also got arrogant fast in the last few chapters. And for what?
We know nothing about the mc’s resolve except that he thought he would also have talent in the beginning. I know they briefly mentioned the orphanage and showed his girlfriend breaking up with him, but is that it? I feel almost no sympathy or attachment for this guy.
Why did they rush the training sessions?? That’s kind of important in this kind of manhwa. The first training session with the shield is okay. Still felt a little rushed (with the, oh you died so and so times) but whatever. However, the shadow guy and saint dude really just showed one moment and skipped to the end. Also, how the heck did the main character learn how to use aura? How the heck did he get that much stronger from that session?? He was just supposed to stop the attack directed towards his heart, right? How did that result in him learning how to use aura? Not only that, but is the main character that impressive to the past lives?? Like, it might just be because it’s not showing everything, but I don’t think what he does should impress them that much.
Also, it doesn’t show the fighting scenes properly. It looks like a bunch of swishing of weapons in the scenes. The girl who recruited him to join their raid didn’t even have any fighting scenes when she first appeared. She was clearly holding a weapon, so she was fighting too, right? Going onto the raid topic, how come they needed that much help from the main character? They were going to go on that raid regardless, yet they were having such a hard time. They knew it was a B rank dungeon, but they still had a hard time? Now, to the last fighting scene. Bro, that was pathetic. He really begged his past lives to help him when he was the one being careless. He was whining to them, then the Reaper comes because of his urge to kill?? No??? That’s not how I saw it? He was whining like a baby after getting himself into that mess. Also, what was that fighting scene with the others? I know the guy who asked the mc to help said they had no chance without him, but they really all fell down at the same time. It’s kind of hilarious, actually.
Like someone said, he’s killing people that easily even though he’s not an assassin. From what I recall, he didn’t kill anyone before? What was up with that moment. This reminds me. Does he not care about his ex-girlfriend’s death? I know he didn’t really show much favor for her in the dungeon, but he still saw her die? Even if that was a shallow relationship on her end, he still liked her for that 1 year, so is he just not going to think about it? Not even briefly?
The only saving grace are his past lives and his best friend. They’re all cool and kind of funny. The times his past lives possess his body are the only times I enjoyed this manhwa. I’m probably dropping this. This might be a situation where you need to read the novel to truly enjoy this at all. Maybe it’s just supposed to help the novel readers visualize things. I don’t even know if there is a novel.
I just read what you said and I totally agree. Instead of using chapters to show him talking to the dude he saved in the mall and the whole pointless battle, those chapters could’ve been use for us seeing him train and getting stronger. But instead he’s calling out to his pass lives and learning moves like it’s nothing with one look
Yeah, I thought I was the only one who think something seems to be missing. So that's it! His training is kinda short like the scenes here are. But maybe it's just the mnhwa? U know if there's novel it can be more detailed.
I could not go further than chap 11 because of all you said.
The only thing I want to mention is that I believe he does not really know how many people he killed as he was possessed by the assassin (same for when his ex died)… but then he killed the people from the other guild like they were nothing…
I think my biggest issue is that the author creates a universe with rules but discards them when they don’t suit him. That is amateurish writing mistake 101

I agree too
DID YOU JUST WRITE A WHOLE ASS ARTICLE?!
I SURE DID. I just couldn’t help noticing some things, so I just had to write this out
