Rocks on Worthless Regression
I applaud its good intentions. And I can also see how a lot of effort was put in it. There are, however, some slight idiosyncrasies.
This is the deal presented to you, in this manga: you are trading high budget art for the originality of the designs, the sheer personality of the artstyle. You also trade the usual op shenanigans for some rough and tough character building, with a writing which is quite clean at times. The most peculiar thing, however, is the action.
Who is MC? He is talentless. And the regression he undergoes doesn't give him any edge except his memories. That's the whole concept. The manga's goal is to make his struggle interesting without giving him gratuitous power ups, and that's commendable. At least until it fails.
It's not cause of a lack of effort. They gave him infinite mana processing, and it wasn't enough. They gave him 2100 years of training, and it still wasn't enough. By their own design, everything failed. And so it was, we came to the inevitable: "MC cheated death cause he was blessed by Eldritch Demon Gōd the Author, the end".
I dunno how they will manage, from now on. I dunno if they can make me care again. What I know is that, as of chapter 88, I'm a bit disinvested.
This wasn't our deal. I gave you the right to forego the usual shiny art. I gave you the right to center your entire characterization around MC's being a headstrong hard worker that gets no easy handouts. YOU DON'T GET TO DO ASSPULLS NOW, because if you do then I want the shiny keychain rustling back. I want the usual high budget art, OP system power building, I want great fight choreographies with no murim büllshit. Same goes for the romance: if you spent this much on a relationship, I'M NOT tolerating an harem down the road.
With this in mind, this is a 8½ on the Ivern Scale™️, but it is a betrayer. That much should be clear. Let's hope it'll repent.
"But Ivern, making an action manga about effort is imposs-" Eternally Regressing Knight. Yeah. Shût the fùck up.
