I decided to see if it was true and read a few dozen more chapters, and feel like I got bamboozled. It didn't just stay bad, it got worse.

He's still alone. There's almost no dynamic with other people whatsoever. He does start running into monsters, sure, and even gets the ability to converse with them. But he largely doesn't and 99% of the dialogue is still him talking to himself.

Now, like every other chapter is a timeskip to years in the future so the current content gets trivialized with constant reminders that he's in no danger and will survive every engagement because they won't let you forget that he's chilling eight years in the future doing the same thing.

I thought maybe it was just me who was irritated by it, but every chapter is flooded with comments from people dropping it for exactly that reason.

The premise here was a fun one, taking a too-hard difficulty that slows progression and it would've been fine as part of a larger story. But it's too niche to make the entire series revolve around it, and you can tell the author is having that problem. He wants to tell a story about an apocalypse back on earth, and what the purpose of the "tutorial" is. But he locked himself into this paradigm by making the comic all about the tutorial and it's starting to reek of the author being bored of the concept.

"One cannot defend himself against the ((Alien)). He attacks with lightning speed from his position of safety and uses his abilities to crush any attempt at defense.

Quickly he turns the attacker’s charges back on him and the attacker becomes the liar, the troublemaker, the terrorist. Nothing could be more mistaken than to defend oneself. That is just what the ((Alien)) wants. He can invent a new lie every day for the enemy to respond to, and the result is that the enemy spends so much time defending himself that he has no time to do what the ((Alien)) really fears: to attack. The accused has become the accuser, and loudly he shoves the accuser into the dock. So it always was in the past when a person or a movement fought the ((Alien))."

What? No. I'm talking about the big-nose aliens leveraging a past catastrophe that some extremists suspect never actually happened, to assume parasitical positions of control in finance, government and media in a civilization that they did not build. And the world at large seems to be growing "fatigued" with their nepotistic antics.

Expelled from 109 planets and yet it's never the aliens' fault.

Maybe the true ending is the friends we made along the way.

I always feel like I never got enough when these chapters end. I guess that means they're doing it right where you always want more.

The hair change makes him look like he went from a soldier in the military to a Shonen protagonist. Which I guess he sort of did.

Something tells me that User-8520969107 is probably of the (((alien persuasion))) himself given how angrily and insistently he's trying to fight everyone in the comments.

I don't mind a timeskip, but acquiring deus ex powers and abilities while skipped is lame. Also, the art is different. Not necessarily worse, but noticeably different. I'm not sold on this new season.

Hope next chapter Gillion gets to mix it up. I love seeing that old lion in action.

This manhwa has really flown off the rails. It starts with a basic premise, a severely bullied kid is pushed to the point that he's planning suicide. During one extreme event, he shoves a bully in front of a car and the kid goes into a coma. He's kicked out of school, his family throws him out of the house, and he's forced to survive on the streets to avoid dying. He joins a group of runaways who show him how to scavenge and how to fight and defend himself.

Little by little though, and especially in season 2, it all just kind of flies apart. Runaway groups that are stronger than the mafia. International drug and human trafficking, whole armies of soldiers waging wars in the streets. Every now and then the story tries to remind you that this seemingly endless population of professional mercenaries are all 15 year old runaways, of which there are approximately five to every regular person in Korea somehow.

It's like the author got bored of the story and wanted to write something new, but the publisher didn't want to give up on the money they were getting from this one. So they just repurposed the existing story into something unrecognizable. Overall, it's still a good looking product, it's just... not what it originally was and the escalation of how it got from there to here is really jarring.

This comic is right, we should support our greatest ally Israel and forgive them for their unprovoked attacks on the USS Liberty.

I was really hoping that when he made his next appearance that he'd be amazing. Not just having risen from terrible to mediocre.

Shocked that everyone is complaining that the OP necromancer that wins every single impossible fight and just got a new demigod form with which he won another impossible fight isn't OP enough for them.

You have to appreciate how good a job the writer did making us hate that piece of shit. This'll be one of the most cathartic deaths in a manhwa ever.

The publisher is immunized against all dangers: one may call him a scoundrel, parasite, swindler, profiteer, it all runs off him like water off a raincoat. But call him a publisher and you will be astonished at how he recoils, how injured he is, how he suddenly shrinks back: “I’ve been found out.”

Synopsis looked great, but after reading the underwhelming first chapter... Think this is a pass for me, bros.
