Synopsis

Meet Rio: a callous orphaned boy living in the slums. At only 7-years-old, he realizes he's actually the reincarnation of Haruto Amakawa, a Japanese university student with a tragic past. While still reeling from this shocking epiphany, Rio also comes to learn that he possesses extremely potent magical abilities and uses his new powers to solve the kidnapping case of a little girl. His good deed is acknowledged, and he's rewarded by being enrolled into... a prestigious academy for noble children...?

This novel still has lot of problems with it as the main character can be really open and yet be extremely cold at times which don't seem to make sense, to me at least. I have also found the pacing to be too quick sometimes rather than slow, as the progression picks up extremely quickly around volume 4 which I find to be a bit too quick.

Preliminary (48/? eps)
Seirei Gensouki gets off to a great start. The first three volumes are fairly interesting and get the series off to a decent start. Near the end of those volumes, though, everything basically stops. Half of the writing becomes people apologizing to each other just continuously. As of volume 8, it seems like an even greater proportion of the writing is just formalities and apologies.

Any character with an ego is portrayed as a bad guy, which means that no characters that you're meant to care about have any personality to speak of. This is typical for an isekai protagonist, but usually the characters around ...
