So this story can be divided into 2 halfs. I honestly believe that it peaks at the end of part 1 with the end of the school arc. That isnt to say part 2 is bad, but that its kind of rough.
The first half of the gate event starts with a 2 year time skip. Honestly that was kind of needed and isnt that bad. Everyone blames themselves for what happened and thats honestly great since the best part of the gates event is just how ironic it is and how bad timing and the actions of the protagonist come back to bite him in the ass. A casse of how destiny always finds a way to get you to make something happened if it was destined to be.
A bit sadly is the fact that the author clearly didnt plan on what to do after the gates open and so the plot feels rough here. There are a few things that feel a bit forced. It isnt actually so bad compared to some other series, but noticable because it wasnt like this in the first part of the story.
Still the author later figures out what he wants to do with the story and now were here in a very intresting situation with twists and turns all around.
The situation is all very ironic. The main problem not even being the gates (they are more there to justify the conflict, rather than being the main conflict). Instead the main problem is the people. The rulers who are in charge of both sides arent the problem, but the people who want someone to blame for this. It doesnt help that said rulers are also to blame for this. From the MC who is now the demon king who is hatted by humanity even though he tried to stop the gates from oppening, to Bertus who is now the emperor, Ellen who is now the hero and Charlotte who disnt believe in him. A sad situation where their mistakes caused milions of deaths.
And now that they understand each other and are on the same page, thye strugle to deal with people who are angry at what happened, while also dealing with the gates themselves. This also creates what you could probably consider the true antagonists of the story.
In yet another ironic twist of events its actually a few class b guys that are the main antagonists right now. Due to Bertusea own depsperation to end the gates incident, he gave a bit too much power to a few class b guys. That is to say he made them build a super weapon to fight the gates monsters. Said super weapon is an army of immortal undeads created from the strongest peoppe in human history. And one of the class b students, who is now in control of said army and went kind of crazy bwcause of what happened after the gates opened has found out why everything happened the way it did and the 2 others who helped her make the army (though they arent all that for her plans) have decided to not let the people who created this mess (aka the protagonists) do whatever they want with the world. So now with Ludwig (the original stories mc), who joined them later on because of certain reasons have kind of become the antagonists. Nothing has happened yet because the gates are still ongoing, but all the characters in the story expect sh*t to go down after the gates end so they are preparing on what to do.
The events of part 2 have a depressing tone. Sure there are light moments here and there, but I can see why people wouldnt like that. Still its not like it comes out of nowhere since the whole point of part 1 was to set up part 2 and its not like the story itself doesnt tell you that its gonna get a lot more dark.
Still imo its getting quite exciting witht he recent developments so I cant say its not good. Just keep in mind that its gonna get darker, but it gets very intresting as well.
The story's premise is good. In fact, it's almost fantastic if we can overlook the various flaws. But the flaws are just too big, and too many. TLDR: Story's world and premise is really good. Story horribly marred by flaws. Author later on starts doing the exact same type of sins as the MC is described to have done to his own novels, or at least at that level of flame-bait. Now, onto the flaws (with as much of the spoilers withheld as possible).
Unfortunately, I can't bring myself to keep reading anymore as of chapter 368 given how the story is unfolding and how the MC has responded so far to, well, everything. Summary:
Story world: 5/5
Character depth: 5/5
Writing style: 5/5
Translation quality (Novelingua and previously Reaperscans) : 5/5
Character growth (MC and related other main characters) : 5/5
Word count fillers: 50% of the story
MC’s IQ: 60
MC’s EQ: -10 But those flaws above just make it unbearable to continue to read.
If we take out the "word fillers" the story would be less than half as long. If the MC didn't have those flaws above, the story might end in 200 chapters or less but with a much higher-quality story. The story progressively gets darker and darker in stark contrast to the lively feel of the first few story arcs. The author initially describes the MC as being punished for his sin of writing bad stories on purpose. Unfortunately, it’s starting to feel like the actual author is doing the exact same thing in his own story as of chapter 368, or headed for a similar kind of story-hell. Maybe I will eventually finish this novel, after reading some of the other spoilers on NU and mostly due to the “I want to know what happens next” mentality. Then again knowing how badly
the female leads are mentally tormented later on
for there to be a reason for the mass destruction. Admittedly, I was also looking forward to the mass destruction but the execution/reason was really not something I liked personally
- The characters have depth; although they are built upon tropes, they aren't one dimensional
- The story is consistent and utilizes a very clear format
- Interactions and events are enjoyable. Cliche, but enjoyable since it's refreshingly executed.
But if you were to look closely at the problems, then it's enough for you to realize... more>>
