Review Detail of Lulin444 in I Am The Anti-Mage
Review detail
Ok. I gave a 5-star review to motivate the author and also because it is rare for a novel to not be brain-dead. However, this novel has its own flaws... I will list them so that potential readers can determine it accurately. 1) It's too similar to Solo Levelling. 2) He prioritised his family over his sworn brother. This to me is a no-no because his sister is shit. Only his father and mother were good. Even then a person should not try to weigh between two precious persons, especially if they are both dead. Because it demeans their efforts and emotions they invested towards the MC. 3) So there was this dungeon. Monsters collaborated with each other quickly and killed a lot of hunters. MC lost his equipments as well as magic stones. Then when the guild didn't reward payments, he expressed his understandings. Then in the next chapter, he mocked them for not giving him payments. So, let me ask... Is his payment > human lives? Moreover, yes he saved them but he did not saved them perfectly. He just saved them on a whim and it resulted in some deaths. If only he had put efforts to save them from the start, none of them would have died. Moreover, he was a freaking general in his previous life. I doubt he is incapable of hiding his own power while saving them no? 4) The title is "Anti-Mage" but there is no detailed concept of Magic system. Moreover, he has this cursed mana. Although the novel tries to portray it as a curse, I only see it as unfair cheat that is biased against magic user. For example, if there is a mage god who is the peak of magical existences, is he supposed to fall flat because MC has the cursed mana? It feels like a lazy writing or wish fulfillment. Magic and Anti-Magic should be equavalent, not one greater than others. With that, I have said my piece. I support the author but not the work and hope the work can be improved.

Thank you for the stars and thank you for share you opinion. I like it. Here is mine too. 1) It might be yes, might be no too. If only you can saw my completed rough outline for this novel it may change your opinion. 2) Sigh, this is happen when a story still not complete and MC sister got judged as a piece of sh**. but thats fine, that mean the way I potray the character is perfect that make you intrugued (can't talk further about MC sister, this will be a spoiler too). And about MC think to much about his family is simple. Because he is in Earth now not Magical world, you can't worry something you didn't know and only can be grateful for what you have in front of you. If you read all of the chapter there many times I mention MC sworn brother, that should show you, MC is always remember him even though MC prioritez his family now. 3) This once again the fault of novel or a story thats is not completed. I can't answer about MC being generel at Magical world since I consider this as spoiler if I tell you here. And about MC is complain about his payment is simple actually and I still consider this as spoiler too. If I made MC care much about his money, I should write him throwing tantrum and demand the money. Even if a worker not showing any result, there should be payment for him since he goes inside dangerous place. But I made MC accept the result, and about MC mocking them not paying his fee, it just on his mind. MC never said it with his mouth, MC even didn't complain to Eun-bi about that. But if this still not enough to change your mind, then the final answer is simple. MC that I create is not a hero here. you can check where the description, I didn't say MC will became a hero, since I know hero is almost have perfect personality and thats not good in this story. The one that think MC as hero is that Chief Lee and some sarcasm that I write on the chapter. 4) You made a mistake again here. Did you see my novel tag? is there any system tag there? Why I need magic System here? Try look at solo leveling, if you remove his game leveling where is the magic system he has? "Magic and Anti-Magic should be equavalent, not one greater than others." This words is really make me speechless. You say this in Fantasy novel and also the novel or story that yet not complete. but already got judged as this. One more, its cursed soul, not cursed mana. I'm already said in some chapter MC can't have Mana.
And, you forgot about MC is the first person that warn them about poison. If MC is like what you think he is, I should write MC not to warn the squad and let them die easily. with that, MC can easily move around to kill the wolves. sigh, for further information, it can't be revealed anymore. My complete rough outline can clear all your doubt and worry too. But it seems like an excuse for you. XD Im not asking you to trust me, because you might start saying something like this again in the future when you saw something that you didn't like. If we don't know something, we didn't like it. When we like it, we know the thing.
1) I am just worried you might do the route of closing dungeons forever. In my opinion, dungeon is very exciting and it should follow a sustainable development so that everyone can share the benefits from it. 2) I will give them the benefits of doubt. 3) Alright. 4) I was not talking about system novels. But the general systems or the laws of magic. Ok, I hope you can elaborate in the future chapters. Good luck with your writings!
