Meh. It’s a mid-tier genocide narrative that tries to spin a premise of “humans are bad so kill them all”. Pretty immature take as a critique on human industrialism. Not the worst thing I’ve read, but far from the best.

4.5/5 read that keeps getting better. But when we compare it to the onslaught of generic manga that somehow get anime adaptations, it becomes an easy 4.8/5 at least for me. Also, Mc is a 10/10 mc, love this guy

It’s pretty good. Though the magic part is kind of confusing and some chapters have too small a text but the story, characters and everything else is great. The MC by far is the best here, logical and calculating. Not really the definition of OP when it comes to combat but his tactics is good. Plus he ain’t just the type to kill everything and, although reluctant at first but that is understandable, he accepts his role as the being to balance the mana veins of the world.

Although the depiction of humans for this world shows that they are literally the worst. Every knight in the kingdom is either a bloodthirsty psycho or an idiot thinking everything he/she does is for some kind of justice for humans. Although not many nobles have been shown, it also looks like they are the same as the knights. Good thing some of the adventurers are not brainwashed justice seeking morons and i hope some other kingdoms or countries show at least some sense of decency. I’d say a 4.8 or 4.9 read.
