Don't idealize it too much. Nothing in life is perfect. Yes, it is perfectly reasonable to seek someone you're compatible with. Just be willing to compromise with your partner - and they should be willing to compromise with you too.

Probably wasn't planned. The plan was to "seal him back up from where he came" and that's about it.

Well, as far as I can tell, mangakatana is safe. Feel free to keep reading here.

The PSA is for people who actually go to the translator group's website to show support -> especially when the manhwa they've been reading (like this one, for over 250 chapters) suddenly gets a "new" group. It's nice to go show support and all, maybe see if one more chapter is on their website early?

Yeah, don't do that. Don't go to manga-demon's website. Do not support them.

Not so fun fact: They also did all sorts of things to get people to go to their dangerous website; such as:
1) releasing half or a third of the chapter to other websites
2) They also tried releasing the full chapter -> but only the first half (or third) was translated.
3) releasing an entire chapter, fully translated, but their logo was ON TOP of speech bubbles, so you couldn't read parts of the chapter
4) I mentioned this before, they steal other translations, replace the logo with their own

Why did they do any of this? The same answer: forcing you to go to their dangerous website to read the full chapter.

This stuff really happened and it was a nightmare. Yes, btw, they did it to this manhwa too. They did it to many manhwa. It may have been a coincidence, but soon after my first report to the FCC against them, they got shutdown for the first time (that I'm aware of) and most of these practices slowed down tremendously.

Okay so, you didn't enjoy it. Good for you. There really isn't much to discuss as it's just throwing opinions back and forth.

To share my opinions on the two points:
You don't find Mr. Main Character entertaining? Well, I don't agree with you. I find Mr. Main Character's authoritative tone, confidence and how well he plans things out in advanced to be really interesting and engaging.

You hated the plot twist? Well, the way I see it, the plot twist exists because this is the main point of the story the author wanted to tell. There's an air of "we've been here before. Mr. Main Character obediently did his part and the world was reset once more, buying more time. And here we are again."
I didn't hate the plot twist because it's paints the lore of the world -> into a miserable one. Furthermore, I appreciated how Mr. Main Character himself defies it, defies his role in it, and he fights against reality itself, forcing a result he wanted.

I don't know... I'd guess probably not? I'd look into something local. A really quick google search shows me that in Europe, there is the "Conformité Européenne." I dunno where you're from, so try searching for some FCC equivalent to share your story.

Reaper Scans are normal as far as I've seen. Their biggest "fiasco" is their naming convention in some works, including this one. Ya know, Grid -> Greed; Eternal -> Etnal; etc. Otherwise, I haven't heard anything.

To be clear: I don't go looking for trouble or anything. It's just manga-demon was so outrageous that it reached me. I did report them to the FCC and I did notice they went quiet for literal MONTHS before popping up with a different name. I reported them again -> and they went quiet again -> and here we are now. I did report them lately, but odds are, my reports alone don't do much. I imagine that if enough people reported them, then something happened. Maybe?
Just in case that is how it works, take a moment and report them.

PSA: to anyone reading this, do NOT go to Manga-Demon's website. Their website is not safe and they once held a "read as many chapters as possible in the shortest time" competition where the reward was a PS5 (supposedly) -> just to "get" as many people as possible.

Importantly, they keep changing their name here and there. Why? Because they get reported, not just for the dangerous website but also for plagiarism. Yes, these guys don't just use translation software to fake their job -> they also steal other people's translations, slap their own watermarks everywhere to overwrite the original translation teams' work -> and releasing it as their own.
If you ever read Deadbeat Noble's Reformation and saw a team's logo on the sword of Mr. Main Character and wondered why they did that -> it was to combat these scumbags.

To top it off, they once "released" a chapter where they did everything except swap out the top page; top page credited another team -> scroll down, and it's these scumbags' watermark everywhere.
Seriously, report them to the FCC: https://consumercomplaints.fcc.gov/hc/en-us/articles/115000430423-Tell-Us-Your-Story

Oh jeez, just how strong is he to make Raccoon guy cough up blood from deflecting a single spear? Or is it gonna be revealed "I would've been fine if I took the spear seriously" or something?

How weak is she? He stopped the sword with a single finger.

In his defense, Mr. Main Character is already all-character-development'd and done.

If the DBZ reference isn't working for you, then fine:
This is manhwa is like Devil May Cry 4. Mr. Main Character is Dante. DMC4 is a game that brings in Nero to have him do the character development so Dante gets to go off and be... effectively Superman. He barely struggles, makes jokes and kicks butt. Sure Nero does stuff and isn't entirely useless, but in the end, he would've been completely doomed if it wasn't for Dante coming in and saving the day. That Flame Mage gets all the character development, impressively so -> therefore he's the Nero -> and he also goes up against the final big baddie and loses just like in DMC4.

Furthermore, this manhwa has the "Overpowered MC" tag right there.

On the last point, rather than the genre changing, the genre becomes more defined, more clear. Throughout most of this manhwa, is an air of "hmm, where is this going exactly?" because like... is he gonna get rich and retire? Maybe conquer the world? Or what?
Oh look, baddies. Okay, so once he beats all the baddies, what's he gonna do?
Importantly: stuff is grandly revealed and it does come with an unexpected plot twist.

You didn't like it? That's fair enough. /shrug
Still an 8/10 from me.
Just move along. Try "Kill the Hero" instead? Maybe "I Stole the Number One Ranker's Soul" or something? (both completed works)

Well, if you're sure.
The way you made it out to be isn't "normal human emotions" -> especially how you were asking "why" like that -> hence my comment (also, Luke's comment from a ~week ago).

Have a good day.

I think it is -> but he just has a major glaring weakpoint. Simply put: if you catch him with his pants down, metaphorically, he's completely screwed.

This is a regression story. Chapter 1 sets up everything and I do mean that more comprehensively than you'd imagine. The story is pretty straightforward and I expected a particular plot point that never came to fruition. Still, it isn't bad.

The worst thing is the complete mayhem of the romance plot that goes down the gutter over stupid reasons. Hey, medieval-time plot writers! LISTEN! Life is too short to waste it on stupid romance plots like this. The age expectancy of the average person was around FORTY. Sure the royals and nobles had a longer life expectancy, but for a knight? It's arguably shorter.
In short: having people in their mid-to-late 20s deal with romance as if they're a couple of shy teenagers who never watched TV is a miserable idea.

Otherwise, it does everything else decently well. 7/10 can recommend.
It's a touch slow at times and I feel like the author might have planned for more but didn't go through with it. COWARD!

Aye.
Would it not be considered a skill to use magic on books to summon things to fight for you?
