I have read the first volume a while backand thought it was decent but I stopped after the first volume for some reason. I have since read more lightnovels so I think I am probably more accustomed to the medium now. I was reminded of this ln today and it made me start wondering if I should continue reading it. The reviews are kinda all over the place but mostly lean towards 'it's good'. Also should I reread the first volume if I start reading again? I finished the first volume like 2 years ago but I do remember it resetting at the start of the first second volume.

It is not perfect, but I quite enjoyed it personally. Seen the series is rather short, I would try give it a read. The second volume is a bit weird seen it feels strangely removed from the main storyline, but it is still alright. I would recommend rereading the first volume if you plan on reading them all in a short amount of time, otherwise would just start reading the second volume and see how much you remember.

Well, I can’t really say if you’ll like it or not, but I can tell you my opinion on it. I thought it was fantastic, but cluttered with a ton of instances of pretty bad dialogue and a few poor writing decisions.
To judge others by your own standard is the height of folly.

characters aren't that good, the story arc quality varies quite heavily, but it's enjoyable overall.

Volume 1-3 doesn't really stand out to me, but volume 4 is where things got interesting and got me hooked. At first I think the series is pretty decent, but after reading volume 7 it's easily become one of my fav.

So, if you're asking "is it any good?", well, everyone has different tastes, but I think you'll probably enjoy it.

10/10 absolutely amazing. Book 7 is the greatest work of fiction I have ever read (as a book). As a series, better than any manga I've ever read
