can anyone make a proper review and not just praise it?

LIKEvery confusing as the first chapter introduced a god level power that can kill everyone, thousands sacrificed themselves to trap him in a samsara (rebirth circle)next we see his most recent life where he is the lord of the underworld killed by his detective brother.He keeps his memories (supposedly)and is reborn in another more miserable life. As a beaten to death slave his system activates kicks in saving him, and he gets a powerful magic grimore. Now he begins leveling up killing monsters and humans. eventually realizes that he needs to look out for himself and starts acting like an overlord, add #antihero.leveling continues as he fights to get stronger and the world tries to kill him.hmmm more of a synopsis than a review but I'm not endeared to the story.
review coming up:if you're looking for something well written like 'I am the villian' or 'dukes eldest son escaped to the military', novels where the mc has normal human motives and thought processes while incorporating a not overly intrusive 'system', then look else because this novel is all the typical isekai and reincarnator tropes thrown into a blender. First, the MC has no defining personality and changes arbitrarily depending on the situation, not to mention that his perception of concepts and events are at odds with his backstory (fully grown man, reincarnated and keeps his memories yet acts like an adolescent)Next, the story writing and pacing lacks any tension build up or resolution. The fights and trials are uninvolved and lack any emotional payoff at the end. Details and subplots are introduced that do not add anything meaningful to the story and more often then not showcase the dissonance between how the MC should act (considering his backstory) and how he does (cringelord).Final note: 3/10. Not worth the read but hopefully the writer learns from this project and improves his next work.
nice
