Unlike other manwhas that has the same plot, this one is obviously better like I read alot of the same plot and this one is the only that gets me excited about what will come next, even tho a similar serie, Revenge of the iron blooded hound. its scary to say that some people think its just the same things cuz of the beginning but you can see on later chaps that its good and btw where are his women cuz apparently he has soo much

the art style is actually good yea

most characters are more op than our protagonist jin runkandel, even tho he adapts ... fast because of his unseled talent, he is way too weak knowing he isnt the only one having some legend’s powers.

we can see that the dad of jin, probably the strongest guy out there, was quite surprised but nothing more which suits his personality but its not really realistic

I think if you really look forward into it u might love this one or hate it. depends but its still a really good one

The overall story is very cliche with a reincarnated protagonist. In his previous life he was a nobody, got banished from his clan. In his new life, the main character will do anything to avoid this. He will get some new kind of power. The main character is alright, he is strong and arrogant since he has knowledge from his previous life. The supporting characters are nice, nothing special to be honest.

Honestly, the whole story is very bland. I've read countless of these stories and this one is mid at best. Nothing new or original. If you have read "Solo Leveling" (the OG of ... this type of story) or "Revenge of the Baskerville Bloodhound", this is almost identical. Save your time by reading something else!

This should be read only if
1) You haven't read a manhwa of this style (read Solo Leveling instead)
2) You have currently nothing to read / you're up to date with everything you're currently reading
3) You have read Solo Leveling and you're missing that kind of story but do not want to re-read Solo Leveling

There's some cool art and some fun fight scenes, but this manhwa has very little sense of worldbuilding and not a lot of consistent characterization. Conflicts pop up and get resolved within just a couple of chapters at the author's convenience, often in ways that contradict previously-established facts. This makes the entire story seem like its being written chapter-by-chapter, without a plan.

Maybe my expectations are too high, but I'm having trouble buying into the stakes or getting emotionally invested in the characters when they transparently exist only to serve the power fantasy. That being said, if you're specifically looking for a power fantasy, then ... you'll probably enjoy this. The protagonist is always one step ahead of or one level above whoever his current enemy might be, and that can be satisfying in its own way.
