I actually like the stereotypical "Become the strongest in a world of ki and cultivation manhua". However, this one was not well done, despite being one of the most popular of its type.

Story:
- Generic --> Become the strongest culvator
- A jumble --> There are a lot of things going on in the story and it cant pick which one to go after. You don't really get where the story is going, it takes this weird obscure path. It leaves too many mysteries and things that need to be explained and seems like it wont ever get there. Character also participates in too much "things".
- Techniques ... not explained --> He uses a lot of techniques but they arent explained very well and is very rushed. Hard to keep track. Even one of the most important concepts of "Essence flame" wasn't explained very well, when a large part of the story was talking about that.
- Many technical terms --> Generally manhua about world building has many technical terms so i got used to it. But this one has ranks for like 5 different aspects. You have to have the wiki beside you when you read this. BTW the wiki has it in English but the story writes it in the pronunciation of the chinese words.
-Good Beginning --> In the beginning chapters, i enjoyed it.

Art:
I dont really pay too much attention to art, but i had no problems with it, even in action scenes. Although, I heavily enjoy the manhua's style of panel layouts (compared to Manhwa) and colour.

Characters

Although MC isn't an annoy little kid who wants to save everyone, but isn't a great character. He is a rather shallow, not having much depth. Does not have any character development but thats optional in my books.

The spirit travels with him is a bit more interesting, creates mystery about his past. Although feels like it wont ever get there. The other minor characters are quite boring, only there to progress the story of the main character. Mostly just stereotypical character tropes. Although there is this one girl that has a "somewhat" mysterious past, but really doesn't ever seem to get there. Again leaving waaayyy too many mysteries in the story.


Enjoyment:
I enjoyed the beginning a lot more, although its quite a stereotypical cultivation type of manhua. After a while there was just too much randomness and no sense of direction for the manhua. The main sense of enjoyment you feel is when he becomes OP and beats the crap of others who think he is a weaking.

Since there are no reviews...

Story: Typical magic modern/futuristic world setting where they use magic to battle and compete with each other. Transfer student appears (ofc he is the insanly op MC ). Ythough their are some interesting plot points, such as the mystery of the MC's sister and the mysterious events that happen around school. Apparently, something happens after volume two, but the beginning was quite boring.

This itself isn't too bad, but the harem aspect of it was just WAY too much.

Art: Im not picky on art really. Pretty generic. Maybe above average?

Characters: The worse point about this manga. Absoultely terrible
MC: Very stereotypical ... OP male that doesnt really care about his standings and appearances. Just chills around and saves girls...
MC Girl: Typical Tsunade that has no friends and wants to win and is super serious...
Student council Pres (girl): Really no personality other than clinging to MC for no apparent reason.
Children Friend (obviously a girl also): Emotionless clueless girl that uses gigantic weapons...


Enjoyment: Well i guess u can see it from above


Final Thoughts: Even if u do want to read it after this, im guessing it got axed since its only like 30-some chapters and it says its finished and the novel is still continuing.

edited: my spelling was terrible so i improved it a bit.

It starts out like your typical isekai manga. 30 year old neet reborn in an fantasy world. Although instead of the fantasy world with magic and guilds, its one that is trying to get out of the stereotypical fantasy world setting by implementing Japanese law.

Story:
Combining law and fantasy world was actually a nice combo. Since originally in the world there was a plentiful discrimination against races or income classes. You get to watch how the mc battles the thoughts and beliefs of the fantasy world with the new law.

The story is generally broken down into cases, where each one (as of right now), ... is only 1-3 chapters long. But there is also main story that most isekai stories lack. Of course there are people in the world that do not like the new change, and thus opposes the mc. Exactly how hasn't been show much yet.

Characters:
MC: Typical inferior neet reborn
Female sidekick: Typical, oh thank you for saving my life! Let me serve you!
God: Typical loli


Art: Pretty Stereotypical, normal isekai art.

Enjoyment:
The enjoyment in this one is different compared to other isekai art. Instead it comes from the battles in the court (and with the antagonist), probably equivalent to something like the american tv show "suits".

[MINOR SPOILERS] Chapter one and general story-line.

--------------
--------------
--------------
--------------

The Main character is immortal and can transform into others. His existence is a mystery.
-------------------------------------------
STORY: (9/10)
... -------------------------------------------
The story is one that I can’t really describe, its basically a journey for this being, and his thoughts, emotions, actions and relationships throughout. The manga for the most part follows a storyline that rotates through side characters, each side characters/plot bring something new to the main character. A majority of the story is about the development and the growth of the MC, as he develops you get to see his emotions, feelings and dilemmas more. It is a drama based story, the author also wrote 'Koe no Katachi''.

The story is kinda confusing sometimes, and contains minor plot holes here and there. The story has a systematic way of progressing through arcs, it makes the story telling easier to follow.

[Pacing]: not too fast, not too slow. There are a few parts that you might find to be slightly slow.

[Unique]: The story was unique, although predictable at times, but still very good to read.

[Story-Telling]: Since the character can transform, sometimes it gets confusing. Many times it switches to another person's view and tells their story suddenly. Although the story is progressing systematically so far, making it easier to understand.

[Themes]: What is left of you after death? To kill to improve one’s self?

[Other]: It references many words that people may not understand, such as "stimuli".

-------------------------------------------
CHARACTERS (10/10)
-------------------------------------------
[Side Characters]:
-good personalities
-Likeable
-Relatable
-Don’t fall under normal stereotypes too much
-Good backgrounds, mostly/ all sad
-Containing both flaws and strengths
-Even though they have some MC material, they are there for support

[MC]: Talked in Story section

[Antagonist]: The nature of the antagonist at this point is unknown. Not too much to say about them right now.

-------------------------------------------
ART(7/10)
-------------------------------------------
[General]: It was fine, nothing amazing, pretty basic. It was fitting for the series. Most others seemed to enjoy it a lot more than I did.

[Character Art]: Most have good designs making it easy to recognize.

[Panels]: personally felt the panels a bit small sometimes so it was hard to tell what i was looking at (eg. what part of the body that was, whether it hit or not.

[Action/movement]: There were some points that I found difficult to follow, but I am also pretty bad at following.

-------------------------------------------
ENJOYMENT: (10/10)
-------------------------------------------
All the emotions and themes of this manga I heavily enjoy. It has calming, sad moments, also accompanied by moments of happiness and MC OPness. The story sucks you and gets you to want to read more, and not even by using cheap cliffhangers. Truely a memorable series.

If you like drama based stories, then you'll like this.

[FINAL THOUGHTS]: just read the first chapter! If you don’t like it then don't read it, but its pretty good.



[Similar anime/manga]:
Mushishi. Both have interesting concepts with them (mushi and the immortal’s existence) while using a single character as the MC. Both follow a somewhat systematic approach to the story making it easier for the reading, although this series is a lot more story based.
