Thw story overall is average. The MC being stupidly powerful and having an immediate advantage in both power and influence with the latter being already their due to Freya. The author tries to be different with certain decisions but it overall just is the same OP character without any substance. It feels more like an op character commenting situations with his experience compared to what he has read in fanfic. It doesn't really bring anything new or exciting within the danmachi fandom. He is OP, already has the attention of the most beautiful women and could easily get the other girls.

And is that bad? While it brings nothing new into fandom, it brings a fresh air to relevant fanfiction: - no pathetic struggle (really, fights with duration of 4 chapters, only to be saved by plot armor); - finally a novel where MC don't go to Miach or Hestia famillia; - and that is the first Danmachi fanfiction for me, where author don't hate Freya for whatever reason (quite novel for me, heh).

You can still write something fresh without being this ridiculous. - you can still write character fights and struggles without it being too long and not having plot armor. All it takesnis some effort. This doesn't make it good excuse to have the character be op. - i don't really care what familia the character joins as long as they actually use the familia in a good way. - the only reason that the character here doesn't have a problem with Freya is because Freya already has his attention and that he is op. This means that even if Freya targeted him without being Odyr, Freya won't be abke to do much as the mc could easily beat her familia. Do you really think that the mc would have the same mindset if he was weak?

Yet its not funny or portrayed in a way to tell a gag. Feels more like the same op character who is op because of wishes and just gets all the girls. Its trying to portray that it is a gag but not doing well.

YOU need to be gagged. He's made it clear that this is the way he's going to take the story. And the majority of his readers enjoy it this way. So either shut up and keep on reading if you're still interested in the story or go away and stop repeating stuff like some parrot on a loop.

You are right, of course - proper novels could be written even without OP MC. And yet it is hard to find these king of novels even among "gems" and top things on this platform. So could you kindly guide me to any new overpowered mc novel, that don't over-struggle each fight? Or at least with reasonable power balance, that would't work as lazy-ass scaling up to current MC power? Or to any "weak to strong" novel, that is something more than constant struggle and survival by various plot miracles? I knew few, and most of them are frustrating harems or about unlikable powerhouse retards. The majority of novels these days are wired case of masochism, where authors drowning readers in endless moronic powerscaling without equal relieve or accomplishments. Here author focused on casual life style of ridiculously strong MC, and usually that mean less fighting content and more story progression, more interactions and socializing, probably with some interesting point of views and some funny gags. And about Freya - it strange to hate character for what she could possibly do to someone. As if she does not have any other things to do, other than chasing every single otherworldly otaku. It is tiring to always see her as some sort of "end game boss", and how every single original character nerd in fanfiction are afraid of her, because she could ... Force them through rough trials to make them stronger? Place them in familia full of characters with similar ambitious and mindset? Charm them into thrall (if their will is not strong enough)? In a perspective of a world as whole - these are actually a good things, since the stronger her familia is, the deeper they dwelling into dungeon.

What about In Danmachi with Plasmids? Its pretty interesting as it takes a unique turn in the story and while the MC has advantages, its never to the point that he is OP. I think the issue with Freya that most people do have is both her and her entire familia. She is manipulative and isn't afraid of taking members from other familia. She charms them so it feels a little manipulative. I mean sure they can get stronger but sometimes the problem isn't Freya herself but the members of her familia. All of them are centered on being the one Freya ONLY loves so good luck working with them unless it is Ottar or ordered by Freya herself. The only reason i feel that they aren't full battling each other is because of Ottar who actually understanda that Freya's love cannot be centered on only one person so he tends to be the ine keeping them in check. Also its really hard to say if her familia do the usual expeditions that the Loki Familia does as it has been shown that they were the ones besides the Zeus and Hera familia who have reached the lower floors. I don't really have problems with Freya except for her love for Bell which i still feel is very weak though the romance in Danmachi really isn't its strongest suit.

I've heard you - and soon after went to read that fanfiction. I never liked Bioshock lore and plasmids, (I like aesthetic and story of the game though) so I always avoided that particular fanfiction. And now I regret to waste my time to read that. MC goes to Hesita familia (already a big fat NO) and seem intended to closely follow the original story plot, including romance prospects with Ais. Why everyone romance Ais, tho? Power balance? Careful character growth? Well, nope. Character was already set by the moment of actuall start of the story. And "Balance" exist only in authors hint section, where he/she complains about Bell's level growth speed in canon. I guess our tastes in story progression and content are way too different after all, good pal)

I am so confused on your complaints about the story, the bioshock parts only encompass a very small amount of its early chapter and rvrn someone likr me who isn't a big fan of bioshock wasn't bothered. How far did you even read the story? Did you just immediately stop when you read him about joining the Hestia Familia. Sure it follows canon but only with that part. Was he manipualted by Lili? Was he attacked by the Minotaur which ran from the Loki Familia? Was he brough in to the Hostess of Fertility by being scammed by Syr? This story has actual changes to canon that it is no longer following it. Heck even the situation withhim and the loki familia is connected due to some ridicoulous reasons like what happens in canon. As for youe complaint about Ais in romance, there is no difference compared to even Freya as it is even easier to gain het attention just by having a unique soul or capable of ignoring her charms which most OCs tend to be easily be able to do for reasons. The character here has struggles and isn't just curbstomping every character like every OP OC who were just gifted with power. The MC actually traines and uses every bit of advantage he has instead of using pure power to win. Sure he joined the Hestia Familia but since when are their other fanfics that actually have the mc join a different familia and actually be different compared to other OP ocs where their character actually does something sifferent, doesn't become friends and groups up with Bell or actually have an interesting and unique adventure. Sure I like OP characters but only when they are taken into an interesting turn or actually earned their OP power like Ainz having played the game enough to reach his level. Guess this is just our different taste.
