POV: You have come to reviews before you read this. So, let me clear a few things before you read this fanfic, yeah?
First, the first volume - up until Turning Point 1 - have Rudy POV for 60% of the time because nothing much changes except minor changes in relationships. That is because there is another MC.
Second, Julian AKA Kiyotaka is obviously better than Rudeus. Now if you have a problem with that, you might want to leave right now. BUT, BUT--- A big but, there is a huge twist at the end.
If you are patient enough to read until the end, you will find out why Rudeus is trashed upon so much. It will all make sense in the end.
That said, please be patient with progressions. I actually cooked this, lol. So, give it a try until the end, and even if it still doesn't satisfy your palette, feel free to roast me in the comments to this review.
Another disclaimer I'd put in here is that I have used chatGPT for the extremely superfluous descriptions. The places where you think the descriptions were too much, yeah, I used the synonyms function of the AI to replace simple words with fancy ones. If that's a turn-off, sorry, not sorry. Personally, I think the writing overall is nice and plot is decent, so it's still worth a try, despite the few little descriptions I added to meet the word count, lol. 😜
Cheers!
