cube academy, chameleon troupe, tower, humonoid monster and the last arc

the chamaleon troupe

a few time when they introduce some sort of new weapon and mechanic it always get forgotten, good example is the wire, and the ability to summon NPC from the sponsor world which when the demon merchant appeared. It's weird cause the wire was shown to deal massive damage, especially when the first usage by the MC, and the summon mechanic was through mention multiple time but never happened

The harem shouldn't be in this novel, while I know the novel is not really harem due to the situation with the MC. But the whole misunderstanding with being a husband, returner, and playboy. It feels the was the only way to make the harem exist. Yes, there is moment with MC and the girls that bonded, but it annoys me to no end with all theory and speculating just felt like it was unecessary. We have 5 girls = business girl, elementalist girl, swordsman's girl, boss, angry princess. There character is great especially boss, but the others seems to be forgotten at least when certain arcs started with make some character also a bit pointless until they were given a last minute of characterization. Like jonghuk with his grandfather ordeal

the misunderstanding also gets worse as it is constantly teases the MC should explained or confront but it took so long, this leds to some of the favorite characters such chae nayun into a very much unfortunate position where she doesnt have anyone at all at her side, yes she has her friends but that void where the love for MC was shattered by the MC action was never fixed until the truth revealed which took at least 150 chapters which is ridiculous, cause she keep meeting indirectly and unknowingly such as extra7 (which is a game name by the MC). Even after finding the truth, she doesnt text the MC right away, or when the MC had to agree a contract to a old guy, he still doesnt do it until convenience met her during the final battle.

the ending is bs, I get that the MC has to lose it's author title due to staying in the novel world, but the fact they just simply remove all his work seems a bit pointless, I know he received some of it back but still doesn't change that all the hard work that the MC did was erased alongside his existence. Yes, his existence disappear in everyone mind since he was an extra with 1 exception since she knows the truth of the MC and extra character identity.

They all got their memories with some character didn't as they have point in interaction with the extra in the og novel.

The MC ended with boss which is a blessing cause I think boss treat him better than all of the girls. It made me happy that the author at least choose the right girl. But alas the epilogue killed me, as it feels like uncessary cause it raise more question than finishing question. In my opinion stick with chapter 375, at least that one gives speculation based on your imagination

Yi Byul's whole life was revenge-driven. All past events in her life were sad and full of suffering before meeting MC. Revenge was the only thing she had in her mind and to have her revenge she does many cruel things which define her character. One such thing was to recruit MC because of his unique power. Alas, the author showed us a plot twist that all her suffering was caused by her own most beloved, whose revenge she wanted to have, and the reason behind it was to make her perfect weapon for killing. Her whole life she only thought of revenge so she was a socially awkward person so she doesn't know how to express her feelings to other people. Due to this her moments with MC were cute and satisfying for me.

Jin Sayuk's character development was also the best part for me of the story. Jin Sayuk's character starts with the arrogant king with no traits to become king. She was selfish, arrogant, apathetic, and a failure of a king. Throughout the novel, she suffers endless at the hands of MC, and with each defeat and suffering, she develops her character and changes her attitude towards others. Her position in the novel was unique, so the way the author developed her was far more satisfying than making her a cliche character. All her dialogues with others were delightful and made me like her more. She got the best ending of all characters which was to become a competent and charismatic king who works for his or her people.

MC kills Chae Nayun's brother due to certain reasons. The whole incident should have ended if either of them talked about it nicely but no MC has to kill him secretly and after somehow nayun finds it he runs away creating love-hate drama. Both characters were likable and I personally liked them quite a bit; their relationship also progress smoothly that they have been a fine couple but, the author has to add drama and it ruined their unique relationship and also adds unnecessary chapters.

In the end, the author similarly generates useless drama. Everyone forgets about mc's deeds against the final boss, no they forget about his whole existence. That drama was forcefully and dull. After reading the whole novel and enjoying it you find an unpleasant and unnecessary arc at the end which ruins your whole reading joy. Instead of such useless drama author should have just ended the story with a happy ending

I felt it was unnecessary to make every single items / powers / relationships he made to be deleted/forgotten...

(Yes some of the characters remember him, but they seem pity him, not to mention the "talk" with Nayun didn't even have a proper conclusion which disappointed me as that was the only reason I got hooked)

The author could've left him keep his powers but noooo he decided to leave him in such a pathetic state like atleast give him more, im fine with him losing sharpshooter but atleast give him his other skills not only the medicine making bullsh*t power

[With best girl I mean obviously Byul]

The biggest unresolved plot point I can't ignore is Chae Nayun. The highlight of the whole novel for me was the whole dillema that MC had at the beggining arc, where he wanted to be hated by Nayun. But as the story continued their relationship started looking out for the better. Even though at this point the MC still only thought of the world as a novel so he didn't want to get invested in any one of the characters, even though the feelings Nayun had for him were very apparent. It also didn't help that he had to kill her brother. That whole point in the story ripped my heart apart. The guilt that MC felt when he did it. The complete despair Nayun felt when she first found out it was him. Absolutely brilliant set-up in my opinion. The whole novel after that even the smallest interaction between them felt like a godsend. And what did it all boil down to? The most uninteresting way I could have imagined it. The whole thing left me wanting for more. I would have looked past any and all plotholes just to see them actually resolve their feelings and possibly (and preferably) end up together. I even thought of trying to learn korean just so I could read the side stories since some say she uses the reggresion stone she got at the end and ends up with him in a parralel world.
