Yeah... a 1 star reward, huh?
And "Jobless" is quite overpowered. I don't understand why he didn't swap between classes as soon as he's done with the old one. It seems bad to hold onto a completed class.

hmmm... I don't recall swordsman's list of work.

The old man is completely clueless. He's gonna go to the orthodox leaders and be like "U WOT M8?! I WASN'T LOOKING FOR A WEEK AND YA'LL LOST ALL YOUR POWER!?"

tl;dr: 9/10 Amazing manhwa.
Would be a 10/10 but when it gets wordy, it get really wordy. I get that setting certain details up is pretty mandatory, but there are like 10 chapters with more words in them than all the rest. Hyperbole? Yes.
I'm not against reading a lot of text in a chapter, but it was enough text for me to knock a point off of an otherwise-perfect score.

If you're looking to read this, I do recommend it. It's a Korean manhwa with tropes that are usually seen in manhuas, so expect things like cultivation, sects, etc. Read the first chapter to understand where we're starting off and decide if you wish to see this through to the end. There are subtle hints as to how there is an even bigger picture building up behind everything -> and the manhwa does a fantastic job overall.

Mr. Main Character is Jin Mu Won. He starts off in a really REALLY disadvantageous situation and somehow... SOMEHOW, against all odds, manages to come out the other side. Things start off really tense, with Mr. Main Character keeping his cards close to his chest; he cannot reveal any of them because he'll get killed with no chance to survive. What follows is a heavy story with high consequences for every action -> featuring a pretty imperfect Mr. Main Character barely surviving and making it through some disastrous times. He is pretty cool though.

The plot, setting, and lore of the land are pretty great. Characters are well written and serve their purpose well, but be warned that it isn't easy for a character to just... stop showing up. Like "here's this guy. Okay, bye. We'll never see him again" <- effectively never happens. Yes, there are one-time side characters, but those aren't proper distinguished enough to reappear in the first place. Everyone else is a mainstay. This is good writing in my opinion.

The art, combat and fight choreography is amazing. Fights featuring equally powerful opponents - who can blow up mountains - do this thing where they swap between fighting with their skills, featuring massive explosive moves <- vs -> fighting with their skills. I think it's really well done.

Over all, 9/10 because it got a bit too wordy on me a few times, especially because I didn't feel all those words were necessary; covering things we already knew but some characters -> really could've just gotten a summary... which also happens sometimes, now that I think about it... hmmm. Oh well.

Enjoy it.

I would be perfectly happy if this is just a bonus epilogue of "life is going good. Look! Wholesome moments! Bye!"

It's always good to avoid getting scammed. Double checking is always a good idea.
In my opinion, they did nothing wrong, especially after meeting five people who lied about being him.

Ah yes, the classic "The country is under attack by a monster! We're at risk of being completely destroyed! Whatever shall we do? What? There's a super duper strong guy coming to fight against the monster? Now now! We might be about to die but we'll do this properly! Passport please! What? No passport? GET OUT OF HERE HOW DA-" *gets killed off by the monster*

Especially in reality, urgent circumstances lead to breaking rules. All rules have a casual "under normal circumstance" attached to them. Even the speed limit has this attachment -> because if there is rain, hail, sleet or snow or something -> you're expected to go slower.

Another example: if someone is attacking you and threatening to kill you - and you are absolutely fearful of your life -> then it is legal for you defend yourself, even if you kill the person attacking you.
Self-defense is admissible in court and it can protect you from charges such as assault, battery and even murder. Note: odds are, you'll most likely still have to fight a legal battle, especially if you do kill the other person.

In her defense, she wasn't malicious and she didn't know. I'm sure if she knew, she would never have opened the door. In fact, she would've tried to seal it thoroughly to prevent anyone else from opening it.

tl;dr: 3/10. Axed manhua. Shame.

I read through it, I found myself really enjoying the premise. Plus the fact that people die of old age in this is interesting because life span is always disregarded in works like this.
After the interesting premise, it progresses through rough times -> and eventually just... ends. Due to the fact nothing comes of any of the setup plot points, you cannot help but conclude that this work was axed.

So like... 3/10? Axed works tend to get a really low score for me and I don't recommend them. Shame, the premise was interesting.

Well, I'mma give this a more proper review. Note: I stand by my 7/10 score and I read this when it was completed around half a year ago.

To me, this manga is split into two parts: the first part to rescue Falin (as discussed in the first chapter) until around chapter 30ish - and the rest.

The first part does a pretty fantastic job to emphasize all the lore, world-building, characters, motivations, and the emphasis on the food is pretty good. There is an element of knowledge that I enjoyed, where the characters aren't really going into a place with no knowledge nor any information on what is to be expected. This knowledge allows them to show off their skills in an enjoyable way for us readers... at least, to me.

I want to take a moment and point out that the first part's goal is clear and so, as a reader, we know that all progression is making its way to that goal. Every floor that is completed gives us an understanding of what they went through before the first chapter's events. There will probably be a moment where you're wondering "how did they make it this far?" and other moments where you will be impressed by the characters. I find it to be pretty well done.
Also, using other groups to show of dangerous the dungeon can be -> is excellent writing, in my opinion.

Then comes the next part and I think the author fumbled somewhere when working on all this. I feel that the quality drops and things go off the rails. What's the point of the second part? Where are we coming from? Where are we going? Who are all these people? Wait, I know these guys, why do they matter all of a sudden?
I feel like there is some wandering and meandering in this part and it goes on for too long. It even reverts back the formula of the first part but without a clear goal, it's just tedious filler getting in the way of progress. It worked in the first part because it was the entire point. It was set up carefully such that "we're at point A, we gotta get to point B to save Falin. We got obstacles in the way and we must work through them." Now? The point is well beyond anything like that and I wish it was addressed with a single panel. I ask again, where are we? Where are we going?
Eventually, the manga finally decides "okay, this is what I want to do!" The problem is this that this decision happens three or four times, getting more annoying every time. If this manga wasn't completed when I read it, or if it was 20 chapters longer, I might've given up on it.

To summarize, the first part is excellent but the second part, which is around 70 chapters, is pretty mehhhhhhh. So, 7/10 is where I still stand on this.

This is an OLD SCHOOL manga. One proper look at it and you'll know. To confirm it, a quick google search yields:
"Original run August 1978 – July 1986"
So, if you see it copying some ideas, then give it the benefit of the doubt as it probably came up with the idea first.

What is it about? Well, as the description says, it's about traveling through time to save innocent people and avoiding changing history as much as possible. There isn't too much comedy unless you find Mr. Main Character's ineptitude to be funny, which it is.

Like bruh... Good news though: this is from the era where things just eventually work out. There's also no major overarching story that needs to get resolved, no big baddie that's ruining everything or any of that. It's more or less just a collection of smaller stories featuring the same characters going through different events. Manga was so much easier to make almost five decades ago. lol

It's a nice and easy read that's like a bag of chips. Sample it for a few chapters and if you don't like this flavor, move on. If you like it, enjoy the bag of chips, just 35 chapters, and move on.
So like... 6/10.

Oh? This randomly ended? It's short. Lemme take a look for a bit.
Okay, after 5 minutes - and only 5 minutes so take it for what it is worth, I'mma spend longer typing this - I can confirm: this is a waste of time.

If you wanna see anime girl tiddies, go to another website and get it out of your system. This manga is just a bit of horny bait featuring... hold on... oh jeez, they're not high schoolers or something? They're in middle school? So like, 12 year olds? How is any manga allowed to get away with this?

Anyway, this brand of illegal kids being horny features a girl who is about 80% naked at all times -> jabbering whatever about supernatural elements that don't matter.
"Hey, you're being dismissive." Am I? Because it's horny bait that draws you in, and I skipped ahead 15 chapters and it devolves into an average "lonely loser" manga where Mr. Main Character and Ms. Main Character are showing off their grand and amazing adventures of... having friends and stuff.
I skipped some more and there is a society of witches, but again, it really doesn't matter. Why? The last chapter is effectively a "stop! This is axed! Bye!" out of nowhere. I imagine whatever setup they had literally the chapter before it evaporates into thin air and the final conclusion that I can tell is "Ms. Main Character is a slightly more normal person now." Congratz on the notion that being unique is bad... I guess?

Yeah, I am pretty dismissive as I barely read any chapters but honestly...?

0/10. If you're horny, you won't find anything here. If they do actually have sex, don't reply. These kids are around 12 years old and I don't want to know and neither should you.

Fight fight fight!
Relationships are a funny thing.
Take this married man, who married to TWO women and has a kid -> this is his face as a not-his-wife person crushes on him, hard.
https://i.postimg.cc/XYf5W8vL/i.png
Meanwhile, his sister casually talks down at the Emperor/Sovereign. That's just how the relationship between them is.
And here we have a secondary life form that originated from him -> immediately choosing violence upon their reunion.

Speaking of which, "Evil God" needs a new/better name -> but more importantly, can he become GIGANTIC too?
