I’ll be honest, I did not like this manga within the first few chapters as everything was predictable and cliché. However, each character fulfills their role splendidly well: either making the readers hate them or grow a strong attachment.

Though, I must point out that most of them are semi-one dimensional as they have a fixated outlook for the protagonist, which is frustrating. Where I truly find excitement in this is the combination of the jam packed fight scenes with good art and the needed bloodshed/failure. Not only this, but it particularly does a well job at garnering our empathy and evoking emotions (I cried ... a little).

I’m interested to see where this manga goes next, as it has a strong foundation that has been established in the mid-chapters. I hate saying this but as the manga progresses the better it is getting.

PS: This is similar to Black Clover and Mashle, so if you enjoyed those then you’d love this. I dropped Mashle around chapter 70, but I don’t think this will share the same fate.

Okay you will love this if you like: good art, cool magic and eneimes, progression mangas
And you probably wont like it if you dont like: slowly releasing chapeters (every 1-2 weeks), fantasy, super plot heavy mangas

Here are the postivies:
+great art
+great characters
+good character development in side characters
+uneqie story
+great world setting
+ long chapters
... + fantasy
+ immaculate design
+ great systems ( in progression )
+ ( SPOLIER ) lets semi important chacters die

Here are a few negatives:
- slowly realsing chapters
- anojoying villans and side characters
- the underlying plot is a little vauge or just not revelad i'd like to know a bit more
- a little predictable

Anyway i recommend reading at least the 1st 20-41 chapters to get a hang of the manga and see how you like it

This might be the most unlikable MC I've ever seen. MC pretends to be weak and feeble while secretly being the most powerful warrior in the school. MC lets himself be bullied for apparently no reason at all. Why would the MC even need to attend school when he's so powerful? All the students and teachers hate his guts because he's too nice? This type of forced drama is completely ridiculous and ruins the character. This could have been an entertaining underdog story where he rises up after getting bullied, but nope, he is already a god from the first chapter without explanation.
