Review Detail of Justin_Spartan in Throne of Shadows: The Conqueror (HxH)

Typical Webnovel "meh." The writing quality is fine in terms of coherency, but lacking in terms of an understanding of pacing or building a satisfying story. The novel appears to have regular updates. The story development as far as I got (not far) is rapid and not really satisfying, for example: the character starts out homeless and that homelessness is essentially resolved with zero effort. The character is under the thumb of a local gang, that's resolved with zero effort. The character is poor, that's resolved with zero effort. Essentially, the author could have started out the MC as a wealthy martial arts student in York New or some other random place, and you'd at least say, 'Lucky guy' instead of 'how the hell did he take those guys out'? Character design: The design of the MC suffers from the same thing as the story, they're unsatisfyingly good at what they do for no reason. The character is suffering from weakness caused by malnutrition, but apparently is strong enough to take out a gang armed with weapons--without getting hurt. They're written for the lowest common denominator of Webnovel readers who appreciate edgelord characters that are "totally badass." World background: didn't get far enough to really appreciate if the author fully fleshes out a satisfying HxH story, but they didn't strike me as failing to understand the world, so, I expect that they'll handle the setting fine.
