Take my review with a grain of salt cause I'm just at C15 but all in all the story doesn't catch me. The story feels like fan-service with the promise there is no fan-service cause there are repeating cases where the mc compares his experiences with mangas he read and feels his story better than everything else (just a 4th wall break where author tries to show that his story is unique and better). For me it's just a annoying interruption ruining my immersion and cheap self-praise. Don't get me wrong i appreciate that the author goes for a story without annoying and repeating plots where everyone know how it'll end but not the 4th wall breaking. I can't say anything about character development for now but the character of the mc doesn't feels authentic. We know that the MC has a miserable life, got tricked and commit suicide cause he don't want to live anymore, got reincarnated from a god. Than he starts foul-mouthing a mighty god, got tortured a bit, but all in all he tricked them to gain more benefits. And he follow their quest and got reincarnated cause he can't reach afterlife otherwise for eternity and after the reincarnation he's happy about his new life with his new powers while a second ago he still doesn't want to get reincarnated. And in the 2nd world we have fights he just survives cause plot armor while his powers already feels overpowered (i expect just that there are guys that are even more overpowered so it seems weak in comparison while it's broken already). The world building follow many disposition story telling from the god and a long introduction from his System that communicates with him using long explanations like an encyclopedia. I would appreciate if we would know the world from mc's experiences and not as info dumping. I can't say if it's only the beginning and it's going to get better and maybe i'll try gain sometime later and update my review than. But the unauthentic character from the mc, plot armor and 4th wall breaking self-praise ruined it for me.
