One of the best manhwas I have read in a long time. All the characters are well introduced and fleshed out. The plots have actual meaning and no implicit sexism, racism or homophobia at all. Not only that, but they explore great themes and different ‘life-purpose-esk” topics with very considered, entertaining and immersive. Unexpected seeing how generic and cliche the you feel the beginning is. The power system is not over explained that it rivals the plot, but enough that you can truly focus on the storytelling and world building.

BELOW CONTAINS VERY VERY VERY SLIGHT ALLUSIONS TO THE PLOT. It won’t ruin the element ... of suprise, but if u want to go in blind - it’s a good read.

Although he receives a “op skill”, it is not something that gives immediately bestows omnipotence, but when used well and cleverly, because a create tool to empower and fulfil the MCs wishes. And despite what could have been a complicated power system, it is explained perfectly so you can understand the power levels, the importance of certain skills and their utilisations, without having to mind-bend or be dumped with chucks of knowledge. This makes it very readable and considered enough that you aren’t confused on how the world works so you can focus more so on the plot and emotions.

I also just personally really like the MC. His humble attitude, smart and strategic brain, continuous drive to learn and grow more, and goal to do so much “good” makes him personable and like a character I really want to succeed. Plus it honestly is so surprising not to see implicit sexism and homophobia. It is SOOO reassuring. It is so normal for comics to try and mould their characters to rigidly fit into and enforce gender stereotypes on themselves and Rothers either through “I have power, I can finally become a man! This is what any man should do despite their level of power and despite the fact that it is unattainable for poorer/weaker people and not what I used to do!”, “You are someone not me (almost always a women) and I need you to do nothing while I do everything. But u can make me food ig.” Or just even an out of pocket, irrelevant to the plot “you are fat, you really need to cut down” or “It’s fine to be gay but don’t show any signs of it with me”. Instead of those fillers or punching down humour, it constructs nuanced takes on far deeper topics - morality, life’s purpose, love. It doesn’t just go beyond the binary good and bad, it extends further to look at what makes the bad bad, and provides a clear, nuanced, and open minded resolution that is so well reasoned, well foreshadowed, unpredictable, and satisfying.

no hyper sexualisation of women or children.

Only points that could seem less considered are:
- MCs internal struggle with deaths/trauma/suicide aren’t really… expanded on how it would realistically affect his constant mental state.
- MC’s suicide count increases throughout the series, but the number doesn’t. V MINOR n insignificant, but just the only other critic.

In summary, it’s a good, green flag, mind provoking, well thought out manga. It was a surprising find, but I’m glad to have read the first 3 seasons / 115 chapters. Each storyline is just CHEF KISSES. And it did not make me feel bad or off put because of any subliminal messages or oversexualisatiom. Love, Love, Love.

Subjective in my opinion
- 8/10 Theme (essentially conquering the tower)
- 9/10 Organizational and social systems (modern city, guild, Hunter)
- 8/10 Skill system (system rank, each skill has a rank)
- 10/10 Plot twist (there are several MC strategies that will be explained and make us think "oh yeah that's how it turns out"
- 8/10 Good MC character (a bit annoying and not naive, I like that)
- 8/10 Visuals
- 4/10 Time turning skill (there are many confusing events because of this skill)
- 6/10 Introduction of characters and their respective skills (other characters' skills have not been explained in detail)
- 7/10 MC portion (too "like a leader" towards ... other Guild leaders).
- 7/10 Bubble chat (inconsistent in who is speaking and in what condision, whether talking, shouting or speaking silently, many of the sentences are cliche)

Unbelievably repetitive and shallow. If you have ever read a "returner" or "cheat" story before then you know exactly where this ends up. Insanely overpowered MC goes up a tower and gets a million reward points. Every level is a mini soap opera with boring flashbacks that no one cares about. MC has the ultimate cheat skill making him a god and therefore making the entire story pointless. How is the reader supposed to feel any suspense when nothing matters? All of the skills and unique fighting powers get pushed to the side in favor of just cheating ability. At some point this story has ... to end, but it seems the author is going to drag it out for a another thousand chapters.
