This has been a really nice ride, no constantly fumbling protagonist and the road the novel is taking is favorable to most people.

Hoping for more~

I don't consider this a spoiler as it's literally just the first scene.

The backstory is that the main character loses his childhood friend/lover because she believed some lie and refused to communicate. Already it makes no sense why she would not hear his side of the story when they were super close. So the main girl is not a real character. It seems like just another one of those novels where the drama is driven by idiots who refuse to listen and insist on misunderstanding. Completely infuriating.

Although it's only the... more>> first chapter, if the author can't do better than that for the intro then I don't believe this will be a good novel. I continued reading hoping for an explanation and more interesting characters but did not find any so far. I only give it a 3 for benefit of doubt. <<less

You aren't ready for this novel.

The author began writing this in 2011 and he was avant garde. All the trope you read from recent novel, the dood did it beforehand.

The story is awesome, the chara development is probably the best you can read in any Japanese novel, the relationships between chara are deep and well written, the length and grammar of the novel put all other light novel to shame. And finally, even fight scenes are bueno.

It's not a hit or miss, if you can't enjoy this novel, I have... more>> bad news for you. <<less

Top tier. Can't stop reading for even a second. I'm pretty much caught up on the raws and I think this novel hit all my sweet spots:

1. A cool, kind and rational MC who's capable of getting sh*t done.

2. A good revenge (?) /revival plot where the MC isn't a complete psychopath.

3. A good cast of diverse and well fleshed out characters (mostly) with realistic relationships. They behave like real people! It's a web novel miracle. 4. Lots of that good ol' natural character growth, all around.

😊Great story. Great character. Great development. Not too Great translation but still good. 😊
