How does this trainwreck have four stars? It's so badly written. The author literally used the play format for all of the dialogue instead of just writing it out. And the less said about spelling, grammar, punctuation, etcetera, the better.

...?

I reviewed this about a year ago, and for whatever reason, I thought it was pretty good. Having now read up to chapter 30, I would like to clarify: it is not. I don't really feel like saying much here. The protagonist just makes such bad life choices, and the setting is just so poorly thought out, it's not even fun to mock anymore. It's just sad. Genuinely surprised the author managed to write 1000+ chapters of this.

Indeed. He should've told his superiors about his reincarnation, shared all his modern knowledge, and exposed his magic. Clearly that's his most intelligent option here.

An actually good HP fanfiction on Webnovel? I must be hallucinating. If I had to criticize something it's how lucky the MC ends up being, IE, in the forbidden forest. Dude should've died multiple times over to the manticore, and someone definitely should've noticed his rituals. I enjoyed it though, so I guess it's something of a moot point.

Every fanfic MC gets into potions and alchemy. But they master the subjects off-screen and then proceed to never use them.

"We need a savior! Who? Dumbledore? No, I was hoping there was a clueless orphan somewhere we could pick instead. No, not that one, we need someone less sane. Ooh, perfect, he's practically foaming at the mouth. Give him power. What could possibly go wrong?"

I do find it a bit strange he's read all those books on "pureblood etiquette" so he doesn't seem stupid, but now he's going to deliberate lengths to seem uneducated.

Nah this is a really interesting excerpt, though. Because the MC explains that he's going to be acting entirely for the sake of his own self interest, but then when Fudge chooses not to risk his life against Voldemort or when Dumbledore chooses to keep Snape around for personal benefit he immediately writes the off as morons. Lol.
