Synopsis

The world is on the brink of destruction after a devastating ten-year war in the "shadow labyrinth." Desir Herrman is one of the last skilled magicians left standing, but even he is no match for the formidable foe threatening humanity's very existence. Just when he's certain the end has come, he is sent back in time to his early days of studying magic at the prestigious Hebrion Academy! With this rare second chance, Desir is determined to save not only himself but also the friends and comrades he once lost. Armed with the knowledge of what their future holds, can his efforts make a difference, or are they all doomed to relive the same terrible destiny? Based on the hit novel.

translated:
A unique work. Among the action stories, this is definitely one of the most creative.
I love the arcs that take place in the shadow world, and how they were written. The art is also to be praised, always maintaining a high standard, worthy of scenes to be framed.

So we start with the typical protagonist who regress through time and is given an opportunity to keep his memories and change his previous past mistake and the future.

It is like saying, look at ...

Ignore all the window dressing on this story, it's mostly battle Shonen.

The story seems very ambitious at first. It develops multiple relationships, has multiple levels of mystery, a fantasy element, a SF/gaming element, a fighting element, an element of horror/suspense...they basically want to do all the genres.

It works for a while too. Unfortunately, it doesn't hold up in the long run. Shonen style fighting takes over the story to the point that relationships just stop developing. Its rather predictable stuff following Shonen power scaling conventions. It goes on too long with this same pattern and repeats itself too many times.
