At a young age, Rakna Xiorra had experienced horrors and blood in order to reach peace with himself. Yet, he was never complete. There was hunger in his soul which he could never understand.
But as he found himself caught in the nets of a thoughtless entity so aptly called a System, he marched forward. And that first battle, ending with his hands and teeth gouging the heart of a Nine-Tailed Wolf, kickstarted his journey on a path that would finally grant him purpose.

It was alright for awhile, but it's locked into a power fantasy fulfillment kinda territory. The main character kinda just never struggles and is always played off as the deadliest dude. Very little engagement. He's nuked things, killed beings that are millenia old, and is the marty stu werewolf OC through and through.
Also the author throws random self doubt tantrums? It's a little odd but I understand writing is really hard.
Overall I'd still recommend it for some of the side characters, but Rakna himself is as flat as a cardboard cutout of a werewolf. Don't pay attention to the author notes because there are several times when he flat out tells people not to read it if they have small problems (like a t-rex not having feathers), and honestly over time his advice gets better and better to just call it off and read something else.

I am honestly thrilled to have found such a good story about Werewolf and let me tell you that this story is freaking amazing. &Nbsp;I don’t have much to say except try to read it. You won’t have any regrets.

Good ideas, the story seemed overall ok, and I like non overt action harem that take their time to be built up, without a lecher MC.
But the execution is too flawed.
It felt like the characters are way too relaxed after being suddenly thrown into an another world without a chance to go back to their own. I mean, stuff like missing their families and friends, being in shock or depressed, and generally being miserable. But nope, they're perfectly fine massacring beasts.
Or even worse.
For example, a bunch of kids and their teacher planning to kill MC and his friends, a few days after being transported. WTF, was that a school for complete psychos?

This is the only werewolf story I actually like, The author knows what he's doing as well, try the book you won't regret it, or maybe you will idk what you like but I suggest reading his 1st book first you'll get some much needed context unless you like the mystery then read this first anyway have a cookie?

The story starts very interesting and promising. But after that it's very boring. Conversations between characters (MC and his friends) are very bland. The comedy is quite funny, the MC's interaction with his pets is what made me able to read this story, well before one of them was taken by his friend without telling the MC. That's the point I find this story disgusting.

I couldent stop reading this, The world building, the characters. The MC somewhat urked me during the first chapters but now I dont.
The only problem I have with this novel is that there are so many characters, so many abilities and so much worldbuilding. It can get a bit confusing especially when you wait for new chapters.
I cant review for the death of me, the only other thing I can say is read until chapter 15-20 or 30 if you can and see if its for you.
If you really are a dedicated fan then write stuff down or something.

Enjoyable and fantastic world building.
I'm a big fan of the personality of the side characters so far, they, and by extension, the world, feel alive.
Bits and pieces of comedy sprinkled in here and there that made me crack a smile or two, nice sometimes strategic fighting and engaging fight scenes make this novel an entertaining read.
Highly recommend reading.

I very rarely write reviews, but this novel more than deserves the effort. AhraManyu has outdone himself here and everyone should consider giving The Harvester a read, and I'll give you a little breakdown of some things so you know why.
Setting: While isekai is pretty much everywhere these days, this one is a bit different from your typical isekai for a few reasons. First is that the "Other World" the protagonists are sent to is not a typical world, but something closer to a death game. Similar concepts in other works might be the tower in Tower of God but it's a bit different still. A mysterious system pulling in people from across reality and forcing them to climb to ever higher levels. The Lit-RPG tag is also quite relevant here which some people are likely to enjoy. AhraManyu put a lot of effort into the status screens, especially for the main character, though it does somewhat lose its meaning in the latter chapters.
Characters: No story is worth reading without a good cast of characters, and The Harvester delivers rather nicely there. The main character, Rakna, is a complex character with solid motivations and a dry wit that makes me never tire of reading. The other major characters are nearly or just as deep as he is, which firmly sets this novel above and beyond even many professionally published works I've read. Each member of the supporting cast is unique and vibrant, enough so that despite the large cast of characters I have never once gotten any of the major characters confused. To top it all off, the interactions between each and every character flow perfectly, every character acting just as you would expect them to in any given context. In truth, the majority of my enjoyment of this novel stems from the interactions between characters.
Action: While good characterization is important, AhraManyu doesn't skimp on the action either. As you might expect of a story set in a crazy place like a death-game-reality-thing, fighting is a central point in most story lines. The action sequences are written rather well, and contain more than enough complexity to keep even the pickiest reader engaged. But I've only lost track of what was happening a handful of times in the entirety of this novel, which is a testament to the quality of the writing. The main characters start off quite weak and the action is equally low-level, but as the story progresses they grow in power and the fights grow in scale along with them. If you've read AhraManyu's other work, Life Hunter, then you'll already have some idea of what I'm talking about.
Romance: Yes, there is some. While romance is not the, or even a, main focus of this novel it is present and has a purpose. The Harem tag is accurate, and
Harem enjoyers will be happy to hear he bangs the girls, just not on screen.
If you're still reading then good on you! Now stop wasting time with this and give The Harvester a read!

The main character starts off overpowered and he logarithmically becomes more powerful. The chapters are 80% stat blocks for the most part. Character sheets, exposition on items and skills. Honestly it's very boring. And there's no threat to the main character so there's no tension. I fell asleep reading this it is so boring. Cannot recommend this novel. It reads more like a d&d character sheet
