This story seems like a generic isekai at first glance main character gets transported into a novel he is reading as a douchebag character and uses his knowledge as an engineer to live the good life, but the difference is the execution of these tropes to make an excellent comedy. The game menu narrator is sassy, the pretty boy protagonist is used as a work mule and straight man to the whims of the main character (Lloyd), and Lloyd is strong but never brute forces his way through a situation and instead uses his wit to achieve his goals.

Speaking of wit the plans Lloyd ... comes up with are equal parts genius and hilarious making the story a consistent joy to read. The characters are likable and funny and the pacing is strong. The only issue I have is that the setting is generic but it's not too much of an issue in my book. Overall great comedy, I'd really recommend it.

Even though the title may be a little off-putting to some, you definitely should still give it a chance.

Story 7/10
The story isn't groundbreaking or anything yet it still doesn't disappoint.

Enjoyment 9/10
My first time reading this manhwa I couldn't stop myself from reading everything that had been released at that point, the comedy is so well done and I found myself constantly cracking up reading this manhwa.

Art 7/10
The art contributes allot to the comedy, but it itself isn't all that. Its not very beautiful or anything.

Characters 9/10
There is not a single dull character in this manhwa, every single one has at least one comedic moment and they all have their own personalities and character development.

I quite liked the start of this Manhwa, but it got very unoriginal and boring very quickly further on and I don't really understand the overall rating this Manhwa has..

For an Isekai, it doesn't really refer back to the real world much besides perhaps 1 or 2 flashbacks that last about 1 panel and his job. The only thing that really sticks around is the fact that the world he is in was a Manhwa he himself read. This doesn't bother me too much since it's basically the norm with Isekai stories to have basically no ties to their past life.

As I mentioned, it gets ... very unoriginal as time goes on. I mean from the begining he has a "game menu" with skills and levels so that's already extremely overused in Korean Manhwa but whatever I can deal with that. What annoys me is that he's meant to be some average guy and isn't even the protag of the Manhwa he read.. however he very quickly becomes more powerful than the actual protag of the story world. The story also devolves into focusing more on fighting monsters etc than what the title would suggest the story is about.
