hmm... The killing each other scene strangely resembles when suzaku killed lulouche in code geasss. Well, this story MC transmigrate back to the past.

Anywho, so far I dont see the giga cringe that rasselon is talking about. I see a story full of conspiracies starting from the past when the MC was a child. MC became an exhile fallen noble. His brother became a pawn. The pawn who is the nominated hero, began to have his very existence erased and replaced with another personality via injection of memories that belong... more>> to another. Everyone around him denying hero's ailments and telling the hero that he is perfectly fine.

faced with a slow death, the hero and MC work together to gather the 4 relics and rewind time to stop and uncover the conspiracies that led to their tragic future.

side note: lolzz I died when I read the name of the knight order 'Los De Kaerot' pronounced as "Lost the Carrot" <<less

Overly dramatic, extremely immature. Story is just "another regression". Author tries too hard to appear grandiose, then edgy; this writing style contrasts with the actual content being bottom of the barrel, which makes this novel disturbing to read.

Instead of taking it seriously, there is one word to describe precisely:

Gigacringe

Not perfect definitely

but I adore the characters interaction. I find them endearing and I always love settings where it involves fate and holds onto certain concepts that it constantly ties back into.

In the case of this novel, that concept is about the four seasons, the witches, the end.

... more>> I adore it, a lot.

I don't see anything cringe about this at all (personally I think using the word Gigacringe is hella cringe but that's just me)

The characters aren't perfect but they aren't frustrating. You understand why they're doing thing even if you know logically that's a s*upid thing to do.

But if you don't like when characters use force/swing their sword to fix problems and want more about the political intrigues then you can step away from this one. As it starts out with a heck lot of force. <<less

I'm just in early chapter but guess I'll put this in back burner for now.

Just as he regressed his body got buffed, maybe not as strong as future MC but it's just sudden too much power boost, he doesn't get penalty like overexertion of his current body stamina when using high intensity skill from his future body, also too much info dump in some areas that mostly foreshadowing that hasn't really relevant till way way down the story. Also the TL'd skill name are confusing as it in err language... more>> I don't know, the TL should put the english name of the skill inside brackets. <<less

This novel is by no means a masterpiece but makes good effort to entertain its reader.

It may be simple matter of taste, but this novel manages to write not just the main character but also the stories around him well enough to evoke an array of different emotions in me. In my opinion, that is more than enough to give it at least 4 stars. (Giving 5 to pump those numbers up)

This novel is one of those that makes me feel excited and yet worried about the ending, as... more>> it might either make it a masterpiece or bring it down to 2 stars.

The strong point of this novel is definitely its characters, that might not be as well written and multidimensional as in some other globally accepted novels, but certainly good enough for me to actually connect with them all and not just the main character alone.

There are many things to nit-pick in this novel, especially the overall writing. But if you choose to simply read it, and not analyse or criticise, it certainly is a decent read.

P.S.

If being edgy is considered cringe, then most korean novels are "gigacringe". <<less
