Pretty good
I wish I had a super power. You know, nothing fancy. Just the reality-warping authority of manipulating retroactively the amount of budget a manga gets into its production. Ideally, by stripping it away from the undeserving ones. I would be a menace, but also a force of good.
The first thing I would do is depriving the plethora of pōrnwhas (you know which ones, hetero hentais with no characterization where a paper doll MC fùcks insane amounts of pus****) of their artistic prowess, dynamic visuals (used for fùcking) and glistening fluid depiction (used guess for what?). Then I would inject a good amount of those in this manga.
Repurposing all of that art budget in great anatomy for MC, visually impressive fight choreographies, better faces, better item design, better environments! All things this one lacks, magically transplanted!
Transplanted in a manga with a remarkable rendition of the action formula. With a great pacing in power acquisition and evolution. With a good sense of adventure! With interesting characters! Decently written, even genuinely touching at times!
In fact, this manga actually has one of the most stable and competent examples of the tower of trials trope. And I fùcking love that trope. I fùcking love the floors, the rewards, everything. Is it clichè? Fùcking yeah? And? It's clichè for a good gōddamn reason. It's fun and relaxing.
But then I remember that the art is... Okay. And my dreams end. I do not have reality bending budget powers. And I cannot give this one the GAI it deserved in another universe, with a better artist and more time to develop the fights. And that kills me inside.
8½ on the Ivern Scale™️. It is so, so enjoyable. And sadly, also a bit ugly and wonky. You can relate to the second part, I'm sure, so be kind with it.
