If it was my intent to antagonize then it seems to have worked since you seem so upset about it. I wrote my points down on to why your novel is iffy and you can take that as you will, no chip off my shoulder.
I may be a new author myself but I cannot help but say that this story is subpar compared to other stories that haven't even busted through 200 chapters. I read this novel to around 250~ chapters because was trying my best to push through all the annoying moments of the MC senselessly adding more women, and girls, to his harem. Albeit to say that my hope was misplaced since this author only sees having multiple women in a relationship with the MC more as set pieces than actual people. That is also not to mention how the author has the MC validate things that happen to him and keep him very naive for a time; even if his character has 'improved' like some say and it happens around 500~ chapters in, it means nothing. Writing a novel like this and making no actual change to the MC until that far in is a terrible way to write. I may be wrong in some parts of my review but that is from what I have read and gathered. This is not including how the author actually sees criticisim as insults and deletes reviews while having spam accounts boost his story with fluffy reviews. If you are into drawn out and subpar writing with women that get some screen time every ten pages because the author knows nothing about moderation and just sees harem tags or the genre in general as 'more women=better', then this story is for you. TLDR; This story is brainrot incarnate. Author is decent with writing, not with actual character interations. That is my piece said, no to see if my review gets deleted; I will even be so bold as to put a number at the end of this since I will post this again is it ends up getting deleted. 1
I honestly forgot about that guy, I just found the family name and liked how it fit. However they are not going to be related. LOL
I am honestly disappointed with how this novel has developed. I will admit that I binge read it for a good while only due to some semi-unique concepts and the potential romance between Shiro and Lyrica since it was obvious there was some kind of chemistry between them that was building for a good while. That was until the Gary Stu of the novel came along. I am not even going to make an attempt at remembering his name since he is, at best, a supporting character until the author suddenly began to force interacts with the Gary Stu and Shiro, even writing in a sloppy backstory of how Shiro saved his life and all that just to shoe-horn in the cliche of 'perfect man that only has one woman in his heart' troupe that makes no sense. This is compounded when it is revealed that Shiro has lived three separate lives, her life as Shiro so far, her past when she got the nano machines, and the ice woman, can't remember her actual name. One would think that having such wealth of experiences, especially from her first life, would temper her not to fall in love so swiftly. However that is proved wrong when the author throws her character development into the garbage and forces her character to be a shy and useless girl whenever Gary Stu is around. While I know an author is free to write whatever they wish, it leaves an awful taste in my mouth when my enjoyment of watching a traumatized character slowly work through their struggles for so long only for it to turn into a mediocre and tiring read because the author wanted to force the MC lead from Shiro into Shiro and Gary Stu for no other reason than with the nasty excuse of 'he waited so long for her and it is only natural for her to accept his feelings'. This is not even going into how for a good bit in the beginning of the novel he literally stalked her and was a general pest besides being used as a plot device to drive the story forward, even though he was never needed. TLDR; Novel was good up until when the author forced a shoddy romance between Gary Stu and Shiro into the mix while forsaking an already well built relationship with another character.
I have read up to the chapters before one has to start paying for them and all that I can say is that while this may be a good story in its own right, I feel it had wasted so much potential. While I admit that his sister being the one that killed his family and touching on different timelines and what not, was a nice touch. For the love of the Gods he got his full lifetime of memories as a 65 year old man back and yet none of that affects his personality in any major way besides remaining a doormat like he did in his first life as Gary. However that does not cover the glaring issue that made me nearly drop it before reaching the point I did because the MC is not kind, he is moronic. He let's any and every walk over him for the 'sake of peace'. Hell, he murders the God of Peace for his own goal. He goes against his own principles and that constant contradiction of character may be appealing to some as they state it's 'future character growth' and while I won't entirely disagree, one should be able to see actual growth instead of it stagnating or regressing but from where I stopped I saw none of that. If someone would like to reply and correct me, feel free to do so but as of now I won't be spending my money or passes on a story that gives me no satisfaction in reading.
There is a difference between being kind and being a doormat for anyone to trample over. However it seems those two are interchangeable in this story so far.
