A refreshingly grounded take on the regression genre centered around a relatable underdog protagonist.
Story: 8/10
The isekai premise of a talentless mercenary sent back as a child has been done before, but is executed thoughtfully here. The narrative explores the MC's struggles and personal growth in a cruel fantasy world without relying on quick power-ups. The limited info so far hints at a rich lore.
Art: 8/10
The art style is distinctive with some rough edges, but captures expressions and action well. Characters have their own visual flair. The coloring aptly sets the tone from bright to gloomy.
Characters: 9/10
The protagonist's self-doubt and perseverance in the face of adversity
...
make him sympathetic. The way he slowly gains confidence through effort feels organic. Supporting characters add humor and heart.
Enjoyment: 9/10
I found myself invested in the MC's underdog journey and elevation of his self-worth. His setbacks hit hard because of his relatability. The story remains grounded despite the fantasy setting.
In summary, Returning With Absolutely Nothing puts a fresh spin on regression manhwa with a compelling underdog protagonist and thoughtful plot. I'm excited to see where his climb to hero status goes next.
