Review Detail of YaBoyChris in Mushoku Tensei: Moving Forward

Writing Quality - 4* Updating Stability - 3* Story Development - 2* Character Design - 2* World Background - 5* This story initially started off great. The writing was very solid, with minimal spelling errors and improper formatting. Nothing egregious. The author had a good grasp of the world and characters, at least at first. The problems came around the 20 chapter mark. I’m sure the other reviews would have clued you into it, but around that time is when the author just has the characters act incredibly contrived and stupid. It feels as the author using his hand to force canon characters to come to be, even if at the time it makes no sense from a narrative point. I only kept reading a few chapters after that. I just couldn’t suspend my belief of how the characters were acting to continue reading. It’s a huge shame since the start of this novel was very good. The progression was going at a good pace, the writing was better than 95% of the crap you find here and the author really knew what he was talking about. Very sad to see the story go down the way it did.
