7.9/10
What else can I say besides for this manga being a well-written “glow-up” manga. You know, the type of mangas where the mc is an absolute deadbeat, but they, for some plot inserted reason, change for the better.
As for this, the story and characters is incredibly well-written, as you can truly hate the main character’s former self, and the plot isn’t too absurd to be like, “yeah, right” in regards to realism.
The manga is honestly pretty frustrating in the beginning, as the mc acts very punchable, but his character/personality is written well, and there isn’t much of a 180 flip in his personality —
...
or where there is, it was explained why, etc.
Side characters are a pretty nice addition, and they all serve some remote purpose besides for being disposable. They haven’t acted “unrealistic” either.
Not a bad manga at all; I would rate this higher, but the story is a bit in the air right now. Besides for some good writing in characters, this could devolve into an above-average power trip manga, but I doubt it will. I’ll update the review/score if it does, but it’s promising.
