I think MHA mean took the first recorded quirk was a golden glowing baby. I think 4 is the average, not the rule. Also didn’t Bakugo have his quirk before Midoriya got told he didn’t have one at the doctors? I could be wrong so take this with a grain of salt.

I’m genuinely confused. What’s the problem here? Master Bob was a real character, master of Blue Pegasus and a former Fairy Tail member. Same with Goldmine, master of Quatro Cerberus (guild barely had screen time though) and also a former Fairy Tail member. Episode 8 shows both of them having absolute trust in Makarov when he is talking to Kageyama, the guy who was going to blow the Lullaby flute to kill the guild masters. Saying these two character are is trusted friends is not a stretch at all. So I ask again, genuinely what is the problem here? Do you think the author just used AI to create these characters because of their names? I criticize the author too because his constant need to state how dumb the MC is when he was shown to be somewhat intelligent in early chapters. Literally a few paragraphs ago is an example (it’s getting old and I personally don’t find it funny). Despite that I at least try to make my criticism valid and somewhat constructive. So why is this paragraph a problem?

A weapon is useless if you don’t know how to use it. Know how it works and actually using it in combat are completely different.

Genuine question to the author. Why do you keep diminishing the protagonist’s intelligence? If it’s a joke, it is overplayed. If it’s a plot point, then you have repeated it enough in previous chapters for readers to understand. I’m not asking you to make the MC smart, just stop constantly saying he is dumb. That or go with the show not tell approach like with the Mirajane date scene. I don’t want to seem like I’m complaining since I genuinely enjoy the story, just the constant repetition that Matatabi made every smart decision repeated every 3-5 chapters is immersion breaking.

TLDR: Good story, I just hate how the author is developing the main character, specifically his intelligence. I do like the story though and will continue reading. You don’t need to make him smart, but reiterating how dumb he is every 3 to 5 chapters as a running gag is personally not funny to me. The main character seems to progressively get dumber as the story progresses or at least that is how the author presents them in the writing. All feats of intelligence or cleverness that the main character expresses in the beginning of the story are now constantly attributed to Matatabi (Two-Tails). I think the reason I hate development is because I hate MCs who can’t think for themselves and only follow what others tell them. The author did great by not making the MC live and die by the canon story, but now it feels like he is a robot doing everything he is told for important events that require even the slightest bit of thinking. The date chapter (if you could call it that) is what prompted me to write this review. The MC not realizing her feelings is fine, but having him lose the ability to critically think is not. Girl dresses different, invites me to dinner, people are calling me dense to my face, people are telling me to dress nice for the dinner, and it is just the two of us. Anyone with even the barest bit of common sense can piece together it is a date (except Natsu). I am critical of this because the main character has memories of his past life on Earth (yes I know but I’m trying to be spoiler free, I can read) and criticized dense MCs. Not recognizing the tropes with that knowledge is not just dumb, it’s mentally deficient. The author’s explanation is also very unsatisfying. To end this surprisingly long rant I never planned to make. I like the story and the character portrayal. I like the plot progression and the later chapter power scaling since it feels much better than early characters. I just can’t stand the slow but very visible decline in the MCs intelligence that is played as a running gag (that has gone on far to long in my opinion).

Author, do you have plans to update this? I normally don't ask but this quickly became my favorite DxD fic. Sanji is heavily underutilized and has been one of my favorite characters since his introduction. Your premise is interesting, your character writing is amazing, and from what I have seen, your world-building is great. I will definitely be reading your other works. If you don't plan to update this, I wish you luck in your future endeavors since from the very little I've seen, your writing is amazing.

It's my favorite story of all time. I have reread it 8 times and still find new details each read.

I like that theory and it does fit the whole succubus variant since they and a type a dream demon. But with how this stories going, there should be more to it.

I was happily reading this chapter and had to stop for about 30 minutes. I come back and find out that this chapter has become paid for and I am out of fast passes.

Maybe she wants to believe and trust in someone to the point of being delusional.
