    I think you mixed up Harik and Bargrux’s names for this paragraph and the 3 after it

    I hate bringing another novel into this comment section, but are you planning to pick up My Monster Hero Life anytime soon? Or at all? I saw that you planned to a while ago after the spirity awards, but it still hasn’t happened. Just curious, love your work on this one and for sure will check out your other novels.

    This is only the second review I’ve written, so as you always should, take it with a grain of salt. This novel is absolutely worth it in my humble opinion. Because it’s not just the number of chapters growing, or the number of characters, or the powers that this MC has gained. Along with all of these things, the author has grown as well. In the beginning, it’s going to feel absolutely cringeworthy. It’s gonna be edgy. It’s going to feel like a B-Tier(at best) OP MC Harem power trip novel with somewhat relatable characters and a unique take on a new and underused MC/Power design. And it might have been exactly what the author wanted when they started. But as they develop the story, you can feel the gradual change in the messages and feelings that they are trying to convey. Now I have to be honest. It takes a good while for it to go from low B-Tier to S-Tier, I believe the first real huge leap in quality happens in between chapters 170 and 260. It is quite a bit of time to put into a story to really know if you like it but trust me, if you can make it to that point, it veers away from being a traditional power fantasy fulfillment. I can’t say too much because I don’t want to spoil any big developments or plot points, but Oh boy. This Arc changes the way you see almost all of the story before and after this. I’ll be making a much more spoiler-Heavy version of this in the replies to this when I feel I can word it properly and convey at least a portion of the huge amount of effort the author has put into the world building. I hope my review helps you decide whether or not you pursue this novel.

    From what I read, it sounds more like a failed partial reincarnation saved by random chance. MC was reincarnated, but his memories and sense of self were separated into two different newborns. The newborn with his sense of self happens to have an ability that allows him to regain his memories from the other newborn. I might be completely wrong, but that’s the way that makes sense to me.

    It is a harem, for which most people would immediately eliminate this from their list. But the way that Ahramanyu handles the concept of a harem so far is completely different than most half-baked fanservice harem stories. First of all, there is an understandable cannon reason for the formation of enough romantic feelings and relationships to form a harem, and none of the women included in the harem are there just to be there. Every connection between both the protagonist and his harem and the harem members themselves has been fleshed out, and any interactions that would normally feel forced or fall into a cliche either don’t happen or are handled in a way that feels natural. And not every single woman that the Lead meets is made into a harem member. It hasn’t leaned into the harem aspect too hard yet, but I so look forward to when it does. Do expect at least some fanservice and cheesy moments, because it’s still meant to be fun :)

    I hate to bring up one of your other novels in this one’s comment section, but are you going to update Mayhem Online anytime soon? Or are you going to keep focusing on Versatile Superstar for the time being?

    You switch from past to present tense in the last sentence of this paragraph and it continues for most of the chapter. I don’t know about other people, but the change was unexpected enough that it completely broke the immersion in the fight before it even really began, if you ever do a mass re-edit, I suggest that you not switch tenses. If this was intentional for some reason I don’t understand, I apologize, so please ignore this comment if that is the case.
