Review Detail of yug_moto in Heroes to Hunted
Review detail
Honestly, from the synopsis I expected something more realistic. Obviously it's a fantasy story but there is realism in human interaction and said personalities. At the beginning, the protagonist was supposed to be a veteran soldier, who lived through the war and is someone mature. From what I've read it sounds more like he's a regular cop than a veteran soldier. He cares too much about total strangers civilians, tries to take care of kids like he's a nanny or something. I feel like he's like an uncle on the corner who thinks he's a soldier. Compare him with the child jonah from jormungand despite the story not being very sophisticated the child seems more like a soldier than this Sato.

I may not have liked it this time but next time it might be different, I don't know what kind of research you did but all the phobias and fears of the protagonist are a highlight. So apart from a few points to improve it's not a bad story depending on the age group you want to target.
Sir_Killington:I appreciate the honest review friend! I'm sorry the MC wasn't to your liking! Thanks for giving the book a try, regardless and I hope you're having a great day!
His behavior based on his past and how he died, as well as I can say a person who went through all this not to be insensitive or closed is at least very optimistic, that is if he does not develop worse disorders such as delusions and post panic war. If you've seen any documentaries or anything non-romanticized about the war, you know that people who fought in the war suffer from disorders, have difficulty adapting to society and have a tendency to become paranoid. Most do not fully recover until they die. The war zone changes anyone from a "nice" person to a "cold" and introspective one. (Of course, they are trained to have as little reception as possible between soldier and target or enemy. But this has little effect due to the series of events that were pictured on the mc.)

The author got the paranoid part. The analtic behavior The cautiousness The complicated thought process. And also think of his ‘nanny and lack of cold’ personality as his way of retribution and a continuation of his goal. Think of the mc as someone despite all the drawbacks and trauma, the deaths of his friends and squad members. As someone who still wants to be a hero.

his analysis is very good, his only weakness is the fact that he is portrayed as a soldier and they have a sense of unity and fellowship built by iron and fire not something totally rushed and little worked. The protagonist has no real favorable impression from anyone other than the moneylender. If you notice he doesn't even try to start a conversation with anyone. It's more like that girl and moneylender who start the conversation. if the protagonist followed what he planned in the beginning, the whole course of the plot would be totally different. It felt like he was being pushed in that direction and not taking action.

Just wanted to let you know that, after receiving lots of criticism, I'm rewriting the MC to be more of an apathetic antihero. When the rewrite is done, I'll delete this review since I'm not sure it'll be applicable anymore. I'd love it if you gave the story another shot and review when the rewrite is done!
