Phantom Spirit King

thust me when i say that everything in the comments below is true, even tho it’s all over the place and not sistematic.
i’ll tell you exactly what’s going on here:

basically the story unfolds in real time, and you have to pay attention and be a detective because there’s no narrator voice to explain you anything, either things you miss, or thing that are outright not explained and that will maybe make sense in the future.
this kind of approach is DISASTROUS for any occasional binge reader, even tho it could make things more interesting if one reads and rereads the whole thing many times all over again. if you can’t remember every single detail… you’re done. The events will unfold and you won’t have any idea what everything is about and why people do things and go to places.

The aforementioned problem is hevily aggravated by the fact that there are too many side charachters (most of which have no relationship with MC), so the MC gets little to no screen time and most of it are fights, there can’t be no real growth (emotional growth or strenght growth) under those conditions.
Moreover it prevents you from really feeling and empathizing with the MC, and really makes you feel like a detective that has to guess what’s happening and attend to every clue to solve a 150 IQ rebus.

Even if you are 150 IQ… it’s no more relaxing than studying from a calculus book.

I guess that’s the kind of read some people need. Maybe from the seinen category? i would advice my fellow casual reader to stay away from this, and if you really need to, read with caution. Remember that i warned you.

to me this is a 2 star read (ch. 30, then dropped), as a matter of fact, i won’t bookmark this
