Pros : i've played this game from the first series (trails of the sky) until the latest series (kuro no kiseki), and i can clearly say that this is one of the best Trails of heroes fanfiction ever. so much better than the one available on fanfiction.net. the author manages to capture the personality of the characters very well. Also, i really love the unique dialogues between several characters that shouldn't happen in the game, they only exist because of the butterfly effect caused by MC.
as for the story, i like how the author tries to create the solid background for MC before the canon start. and the author managed to do it. the MC also has likeable personality, he is smart, cautious, not naive, isn't dense like most jp protagonist, proactive about the harem
Cons : but of course, there's no way this novel doesn't have the cons. because this series has A LOT of characters, the author sometimes had to include every single of them (and some of them aren't even important). and this caused the story to progress slowly, 200+ chapters and yet the canon hasn't even started yet. and also, because of the massive numbers of characters in this series, the author sometimes wrote somewhat meaningless dialogues that served no purpose other than increasing the word count for the novel.
and also, this one happens very often. the author tends to start the chapters with a very long introductions, that somewhat can also be shortened, and even if you skip the introductions, you won't miss the story / the plot
in short, a lot of characters = a lot of useless dialogues = slow progress.
i feel like some of those dialogues can be shortened, and just focus on mc, so the canon can start quickly
overall : 4.8/5
