4.1/10
What in the world… isn’t this just the premise of SAO but genuinely horribly written? Absolutely, and I love/hate every second of it.
I’m going to be blunt: this manga is one jumbled mess regarding the pacing and plot — not only is the first chapter just a rushed clusterf*ck of an introduction, but the plot gets so derailed by chapter 2 and 4 — events happen for the sake of it without much explanations, and everything screams forced. Added to that, there’s some seriously unnecessary fanservice with the cliches and plot holes, making it hard to find any serious enjoyment from the chapters.
Characters
...
are about as mediocre and generic as it gets — especially the mc. He’s your typical protagonist that is too much of a good boy for his own good. Along with that, the side characters are just.. interesting. I don’t know what you should expect from a manga that inserts a little sister into the plot for no apparent reason, but the characters are just piss poor in terms of writing.
SAO never had the best plot or interesting characters, but at least it reached the bare minimum in both qualities, which this story did not do.
You guys know this is just my opinion, right?
