Generics done right: the best description for this manwha. At first glance, I thought this manwha was yet another poor attempt to strike it big with the ever-so popular regression and system trope, but it somehow pulled its weight with the focus on side characters.

Characters are either disposable to drive the plot or last until the series’ end. Obviously, one is much better than the other, especially if it is done well; that being said, the manwha has focused its attention on developing and fleshing out minor characters, with a wide-range of personalities. The mc’s relation towards each of them also isn’t absurdly unreasonable unless ... he’s aggravated.

Regression? System? Tower-like Progression? Broken stats? Streaming? Yup. This manwha has all of that, a true generic’s lucid dream. Though there is literally every “overdone” trope possible, it works because of all the minor details in the art style or the plot.

The world-building is the most frustrating thing about this. Not because it’s “bad” in any way, but because it doesn’t babysit you through the details of the world. It feeds information here and there, but doesn’t go into detail.

A clichéd trope that has been so overly clichéd that it becomes good? Besides for the minor plot predictability and emphasis on national racism, it’s a good-ass read for its genre/trope.

PS: … Look, I know literally every experienced reader on the planet loves to hate on “Solo Leveling” comparisons… but hear me out. A clichéd trope? Small focuses on background/minor characters? Art-style that compliments the story? Maybe you don’t see it, but if you enjoyed SL you’d probably like this.

Typical time travel manhwa where MC travels back in time and expected to fix things in his second chance. Despite the fact that lot of elements in this manhwa looks similar to many other manhwa, the amazing art style, story build up makes this manhwa bingeable.

Some of the elements of the Manhwa are pretty releatable, people playing VR games, live streaming your game etc.

You should definitely read this if you are looking for
• A smart MC who know the future and always make the optimum decisions
• Manhwa where MC fails in current life and time travels to defeats the enemies.
• Fantasy Manhwa with a world ... full of magic, swordsmen.
• Awesome artwork with good fights

The Manhwa has lot of similarities to Esper's Game, It covers up the drawbacks of Esper's Game, which make its a very good read.
