I've picked the title on a whim while browsing for some another trash isekai to mindlessly consume, but this one turned out surprisingly curious.
It starts "the usual" way with protagonist being gifted seemingly unbeatable powers by the god, but the setting surrounding the events really works for this to work... Odd turn of phrase, but nevermind.
What in hands of a lesser writer would've been just your bottom of the barrel power fantasy, here it throws in questions about the setting that you actually start to care about, and overall this creates the feeling that there's more shit going on under the hood of ... this world.
This manga clearly has more thught put into it than just "unbeateable hero beats everyone". I like it so far.

The story starts off with the MC receiving the power of Zeus.And him transferiing into a Knight school.And the rest i would recommend you giving this a shot cause you might like it or if you didnt dnt continue cause maybe this is too Generic for you.

Story:7/10:Nothing too crazy happening for now but i have high hopes in this cause the fact that there are Gods in this story and the mc having a lets say Op skills cause the god called Zeus entrusted him with his power.So far so good i like where the author is pointing the Story and the potential of this ... is really high if done right! The only thing i dont like about the story is that its pretty Generic so be careful of that

Art:8/10 Its good not that bad and not that good but enough to satisfy you

Characters:9/10 One of the most important part of an manga is how the Mc doing right? The Mc here is likable and the side characters too and the fact that it made its characters likable by just few chapters is amazing! My only dislike is that the MC being Op it may destroy the show.

Enjoyment:10/10 Theres nothing to say just give it a shot you may like it or you may not if not then dont continue! The enjoyment it gave me is pretty high im just chillin reading it. Just give a shot you will not regret it!

Overall 7/10 Its good,give a shot,looking forward for more chapters!
Btw this is my first review so im clearly bad and english is not my main language so sorry for the bad grammar.

7.1/10


This manga is the result of an author following the same old formula of an overpowered protagonist, but he gave it the smallest bit more thought. In other words, the manga is the slightest bit better than average; the characters and plot are unsurprising of the manga’s trope, but the utilization of character interactions/chemistry make the manga significantly better than what it would’ve been.

There’s a massive issue with this manga: the multitude of characters, making numerous plot holes. According to the manga’s genre, all of the significant characters are females; there are some male side characters, but they serve to push to plot and ... casted away. Because of the introduction of numerous characters, the characters leave an unfulfilled sensation once their screen time is over, only for the manga to move onto another character, leaving an unfinished plot.

With all of the characters, there are some bright spots in their presence with the humorous elements or comments they add; they are introduced relatively naturally, making the manga interesting, however, like noted before, they aren’t individually focused by the author, ruining their chances of getting true depth.

For the manga’s trope, it’s better than most, however, compared to other manga, it’s underwhelming.
