Writing- 3/5; Many typos and Grammer mistakes. Not proud of my work. Story Development- 3/5; Again, not my proudest work. In hindsight the story is good but there's many plotholes, major storylines are dropped and perhaps a lot of things were great, I feel like I can do better. Character Design- 4/5 I think I actually did pretty well with this. Update Stability- 4/5; when it IS updating, it's almost regular. World Background- 5/5; I mean it's tower of god.

All right, let's go over all the points one by one. Pops Knuckles* Writing Quality- 3/5; The writing quality is... decent. I say decent, but in truth, it's far better than most things you can't find here. It is easy to read and intelligible but there are many typos in the first couple of chapters that may throw off immersion. The way the story is presented also feels kind of.. bland? I don't think that's the word to use, but it falls short in many regards and situations where it's supposed to shine the most. The way situations are handled and fights take place are alright, but they can feel rushed and overall, a bit tasteless. no others nitpicks. Story Developments- 4/5; The story is mostly the same, except that Subaru now has strength. Now, there are a lot of things that are different, and the story is genuinely fun to read. it's one of those which makes you not think too hard and just enjoy the ride. it's not trying to tackle the nuances of the original, neither is it trying to shove into your face how bleak actually getting reincarnated would be and it does so greatly. There are many things I find wrong with the story however. Reinhard being a girl was not something that peeved me, but the fact that she fell for Subaru within their first meeting was a bit of a... turnoff. That's only my opinion though that some people might enjoy that so, yeah. It's a harem, not to my taste but I'm not going to let that influence the last score. But here's the main problem. There's very little... potential in terms of tension. Basically any problem can be solved by dying a few times and that's that. I'm not sure how much the shelflife of such a story can be, but if it continues on, which I hope it does, I do think the author will hit a wall on how to keep the story engaging; in my personal opinion as a fellow author. I would have given this 3 stars, but the story grows on you, so 4. Character Design- 3/5; the Character's aren't... very likable. The Mc is only likable because he's the Mc and we see him in our place. He's going around growing in strength but he doesn't really have a goal in mind. He's only going along the ride. Many a times, He's said that he values his own life a lot, but there's many other times when he makes decisions that put himself in deliberate danger out of sheer stupidity when he doesn't even realize he has any new powers. His decision to support Emilia are also vague at best. His sole motivation is so that Puck doesn't destroy the world, which is improbable since Reinhard is a literal nuke. Other than that, Ram is for some reason in love with roswal when she only ever falls in love with him after Rem gets erased, but I won't deduct any points for that. Update Stability- 5/5; Chef's Kiss* World Background- 5/5; I mean, it's re zero. Overall- 4/5; A work that's enjoyable to read and grows on you as you read it. Grammer gets better with time and overall, it's a fun experience if you're a re zero fan. Might be hard to get through the first and second arc though so that's that. Please finish this author! cheers~~

But people do tend to follow along the crowd to see success. it's more about the existence of patreon and people realizing they can make money even by subpar stories.

Re Zero's not a small franchise at all. it's more so that people don't realize the merit in it. it's hard to make a fanfic out of such a piece of work where emotion is considered one of the hallmarks. Webnovel doesn't promote ingenuity, it promotes popularity. It doesn't matter if your material is good, if it doesn't reach the right audience, it will fail. in that regard, the role of a trail blazer is needed which can push others to make more fanfics.

Funnily enough, I've had a re zero fic in development for 4 months now and have about 50 chapters written XD

That's literally the point. The moment the first glimmer of snow starts to appear, reinhard will deal with it. let's not ignore the fact that reinhard was on petrol on the day Elsa attacked

The fic is just plain bad. plenty of plot holes, dumb writing and horrendous Grammer. If I do ever feel like it, I'll probably just end up rewriting it entirely. Continuing on with the story, as it stands, is improbable.

Reinhard = No
