classic player/system and academy/school. interesting backstory to the mc, not a fan of some of the writing but mostly good. system is realistic enough to not detract from the writing, art, or overall world building. Some promising characters but it is hard to tell only being at the end of the first season.

It’s probably going to be pretty good in the next season, i’ve been waiting for the next season for a few months. top 5 of the player+school genre in my opinion (in manhwa that is) with an ability to be top 3 if writers don’t screw what they have going for it up, ... as well as if they don’t go for the cheap basic art which has seemingly taken over in the past year with horrible knockoff crap.

7.5/10 with pretty high expectations. also better than average art, novel ideas which can be somewhat hard to come by. overall surprisingly good.

MC has talent but isn't that OP at the start of the story. Unlike other power fantasy stories, he's not perfect at everything and they make it clear that there's other characters that can do certain things better than him.

Setting is the standard (obvious from the title), dungeon portals appear on earth, humans gain RPG powers, stats, and gear to go into the dungeons and fight monsters so they can't get into the main world.

Because the MC doesn't start off that OP, the story is about his growth and his friends/teammates as well since he's not perfect at everything and has to party up ... to. Fight scenes are mainly problem solving ways for his team to win the fight, not just showing off his OP powers. Very refreshing compared to other stories in this genre that are just one person soloing everyone while everyone else is just an onlooker gawking at the MC's powers, although in typical this manhua does have a bit of that too.

Another one of these mass-produced dungeon portal comics. Main character is completely unlikable with zero personality. MC is so generic it's not even clear what he's trying to achieve. It's 99% action with practically no story. Why even have dialogue when it's this predictable? These authors forget that you need some kind of buildup or suspense for the action scenes to have any impact. Just throwing random monsters at the MC does nothing to keep the reader interested. There's no exploration. No adventuring. No comedy. No drama. No romance. There are so many better comics in this genre that I certainly wouldn't waste my time ... on this one.
