Weak Hero is a mediocre underdog story with a great cast of characters. The interactions between the protagonist's group of friends are by far the highlight of the story. The plot is not necessarily bad, but it has some absolutely glaring flaws that i can't seem to get over. For one the plot is so god damn predictable, how many times do we have to see the MC get underestimated because of his appearance only to beat the shit out of his opponent? Honestly the fights that don't include the MC are way better than the same copy paste fight we get every time the

MC gets in a fight. Also there is a major plot hole in this story, they spend a lot of time telling you about the big bad antagonist, Donald Na, the leader of "the union". The author describes him as someone insanely strong and smart who only cares about money. Yet for some reason, despite the fact that the union could just not fuck with the MC's school and keep making money, they keep sending members of the union to try and crush the MC and Ben Park. With how often the other characters talk about Donald being a genius you would think he would've just cut his losses after Jimmy went behind his back to fight Ben Park, but instead he just keeps sending goon after goon at the MC and his friends and they always lose. The author has given no reason other than maybe pride(?) for why the union is so hell bent on destroying the MC and his friends.
Also this has nothing to do with the story but why does the author insist on making all the characters wear designer clothing it is so insanely tacky and distracting.
