The story is well written, but due to the lenght of the story before he enters DxD, I find it had to enjoy as much. Don't get me wrong the pre-story is great... It's just that I feel lied to with false information because of the story's title and summary. At this point in time, which is like 15 chapters in, there hadn't been anything related to dxd yet. They just finished the summary mentioned warp sequence, so I guess its going to start now, but for me, a lot of the damage is done. Combined with the slow release rate, the story has taken so long to get to the actual DxD part that I shelved it after a few chapters and rebinge read it till now. DxD is about to start but... I no longer feel interested in the story because it took this long to get to the point it advertised. DxD. In one chapter, the author added an authors note, asking if the prologue was too long. My answer to that is:"Most Certainly". To the author, I recommend adding a short summary introduction of what has happened to this point, the size of one or two paragraphs, then continueing the story from there. That way, people who feel 15 chapters is too long a prologue would be able to tune in from there, which is what I recommend most others to do. It's very hard to arrive somewhere that they are told to expect the thing they are looking for, and the told to wait for an undetermined amount of time. For me, I feel like I am at a restaurant waiting for the food I ordered, only to sit there waiting still at closing time and realise that they kept me waiting because theyre too embarresed to admit the ingredients ran out for what I ordered and hoped I would just walk away... Thus, whilst the story is really well written, even now that we are at the cusp of getting the actual DxD part of the story... I just want to go leave, which I am doing after this review is posted...

I think I've said somewhere that I'm utilizing the universe of DXD I'm not going to follow the plot completely. I may even completely mess up the plot don't know yet. And it's not false information the name says it all DXD Mars meaning I'll focus fully on Mars and there will be interactions between DXD characters and the MC but it'll take some time. As I said I'm trying to go in a different direction than the other DXD fanfic authors where they immediately start to interact with the characters. And please remember he doesn't even know he is in the DXD universe. Also he is far away from earth with no Realtime communication and in the past. So it is logical that he will try to understand his current situation. By the way the prologue ended when Aurora warped in the DXD universe and Shiro woke up. What I'm writing now is the main story. And one more thing I keep saying DXD universe instead of DXD world cause I won't solely focus on Earth. Thanks for the support and I hope this answered your doubts.
its the same with me it is a well written book its just not dxd and i am writing this as of chapter 21
Then title the story differently. Something that actually relates to the plot. There's a huge difference between not following plot and interacting with the ff part of plot 100 chapters in(ofc exaggerating here but sure does feel that way)
