The Irregular of the Royal Academy of Magic

E, this is a copy of what I wrote on chapter 17, but it doesn’t contain any spoilers, it’s just what I think about the little that I’ve read of the series. It’s not a review btw, just letting you know.

“I seriously couldn’t recall why I stopped reading this when it first started dropping, especially since the art is so nice, but I think I know why. It should be pretty obvious by now that this is a somewhat strong “insert self here” type of fantasy series. I don’t think there’s anything wrong with that, but for me to personally be able to enjoy this type of series, I need to turn off my brain a little as to not experience recoil in the form of psychological whiplash or physical repulsion that’s often visible through face contortions.

Ok, I’ll stop. I was just trying to avoid using that one specific word that perfectly describes itself. Although I could’ve just described it as “uncomfortable” now that I think about it, but whatever, I’m kind of forgetting why I’m even writing this.

There might be some gold story that I’m probably going to miss by not reading this or a turnaround where the MC actually becomes his own character instead of the same uninteresting and empty husk of a man that you see right now.

But I’m gonna pass on this until I feel like I’m in the mood to turn off my brain for a few hours to read and probably actually enjoy this. Hopefully”
