Cringe. I am out. I know no one cares.

Before diving into this novel, I was worried due to the negative reviews, especially those criticizing the main character as a weak bitch who always loses. But after reading it, I realised those opinions were WRONG. Those readers expect an overpowered protagonist without any logic as if somehow a normie from the modern world suddenly transported to Naruto world could magically gain all the skills and attract a harem. No... the bad reviews are from readers who are compensating for being losers. Now for the actual review: This fic, as I mentioned earlier, is about a normal dude who suddenly wakes up in the body of a student at a shinobi academy. And yeah, as you’d expect, the MC from the real world doesn’t have jack shit in terms of skills, not even the basics, when the shinobi academy is basically an assassin/military school. The start is slow with the MC adjusting to his new reality and fumbling around, trying to get past his total lack of knowledge and ability. It makes sense he struggles early on because he’s a modern guy who doesn’t know shit about ninja skills. But TRUST ME, IT GETS BETTER. By the end, I’d say the MC turns into a seriously talented badass through hard work, and the progression is GOOD and REALISTIC. You can see how he claws his way up from nothing to become a legit powerful fighter. Right now, in terms of talent, he’s maybe one tier/ one in a half below genetic geniuses like Itachi, Sasuke, or Naruto. As for his personality, he’s no weak pussy. Morally, he’s pretty much the ideal shinobi. He follows shinobi morals and kills enemies without hesitation, ruthless as hell. He pretty much says it outright he wants to be a shinobi and follow the progression ladder or die trying. Obviously, it’s not like that from day one, but the way he develops feels natural and earned. The biggest strengths of this story are how damn fun it is to watch the MC go from a nobody to a somebody, plus all the wild shenanigans he gets into along the way. The plot’s fresh with no lazy canon rehash bullshit here. The world-building is top-notch too. You really get sucked into the story and the Naruto universe. I’d highly recommend this to any Naruto fan. Romance? There are some sprinkled here and there. Nothing concrete yet, so we’ll see where it goes.

There is no such thing as "King of England". Kingdom of England ceased to exist when it united with Scotland in 1707 to form the Kingdom of Great Britain.

Oh sweet summer child...

My friend most anti harem readers have a girlfriend and don't need to read harem fantasies...

I understand now more clearly. I just didn't get that impression in the novel. In the novel, it sometimes feels like he knows everything like reading from Wikipedia.

In the early chapters, I didn’t get the impression that he was an engineer. Even if he were, I highly doubt that a modern, educated engineer could sketch basic but functional outlines for WWII-level tanks from scratch, especially in a way that WWI-era people could build. Such knowledge is far too specialized and specific. This is especially true for technology like tanks and submarines, which would be entirely new concepts for that time period.
