did-not-finish
July 11, 2022No rating: didn't read enough
Read 6/204 chaps, fully written and translated. Skimmed up to 15.
Even though I won't give a number, I will say that I didn't like what I saw.
You ask, and I deliver: here is a proper review
Characters: disliked
The main character is not the worst, but not of literary merit either. He at least isn't faceless because he has his laziness as a quirk. However, that ends up not really mattering because he just talks like he is lazy but never actually shows himself to be lazy since the story forces him to be proactive. The female lead acts dumb. I don't enjoy reading about that, whether that is intentional character design or not.
World: disliked, but there isn't much to go on
The focus isn't on the world. However, what world-building there was was poor. It was unclear exactly what the scope and power scaling across the empire is. This is a fatal flaw in a book where the story is currently moving forward because "the kingdom is sending people after us." The book should at least show us the courtesy of letting us know roughly how big this threat and this kingdom is. I would even be okay with another "cardinal directions: four kingdoms on a blobby continent" world instead of this nebulous thing that we have received.
Story: what I read was uninteresting
The first 5 chapters are spent setting up the standard reincarnation and regression premise, and the remaining 10 are all spent grinding in a dungeon. The book spends several sentences on the main character's surprise that he got two coins instead of one from a monster. That destroys all my expectations for this novel. I quit.

Читав давно. Ситуація досить дивна - я пам'ятаю, що мені було цікаво це читати, я пам'ятаю якісь моменти - але не почав би я перед цією "рецензією" собі нагадувати - його б і не було. З одного боку, раз емоції залишилися - було за що, але раз нічого реально не запам'яталося... Виникають сумніви - а чи так хороші персонажі, світ і т.п? Можливо в майбутньому перечитаю, адже воно не велике.
