Synopsis

Kill. Consume. Survive.

Ren Kageyama was reincarnated into a new world with nothing but the clothes on his back. Without any special powers or skills he survives day by day, until he stumbles across an ancient and deadly weapon - the sword of one-thousand teeth, Stigma. After touching it he is bound together with the spirit who inhabits the blade and pressed into servitude.

If he wishes to prevent his soul from being consumed by her power - he must satiate her hunger by destroying powerful enemies and devouring them. With a blade held to his neck and knights of order pursuing him relentlessly, he must survive in a harsh world and gather strong allies. Will he find a way to abate his fate?

[Contains sexual content, strong language, harem content, gore and violence.]

    The story is well written, the grammar is good, the setting is interesting and what character interactions there are are well done. But major problems exist with the context of those character interactions and with the main character himself.

    The main character has no ambition and never has a plan, ever. A side character will always pop up and tell the main character what to do and how to do it, always. The main character never engages his companions, ever, it is always the companions who engage him. To put it simply the main character isn’t a real character, he has no agency at all within the story. 

    There’s some other small problems with agreeing to dumb stuff or disagreeing and then immediately agreeing again repeatedly. Some scenario’s that don’t fit or progress anything or devalue the rpg mechanics. But those are all minor problems compared to the main character that isn’t even a real character but a puppet.

    I like the story but currently the story is going downhill for me (Tho looking at the views of the 10 latest chapters of the story, that might be the case lol), With the MC easily giving in to cali whenever she says something even if that something is not what he wants to do.

    Like look what happened in chapter 27 where he let this inquisitor dude in his team even tho he doesn't want to but since cali wants the dude in and that she finds him interesting then the MC couldn't do anything about it other than give in like a pushover

    Status: chapter 24; v1 end

    End of Volume 1: 

    Story development: Very event-driven and mysteries which slowly unravel. I’m hooked.

     World Building: Great potential and well done so far. 

    MC: Portrayed as rational. Has too many principles for someone who went from modern Japan to the slums in my opinion but not too fussed. He screams ‘character growth’ as the tags indicate so I have some expectations :). 

    Spoiler

    That stunt he pulled with the gold ingot at the end of v1 was very satisfying. I’d really thought he wouldn’t keep it due to principles or some bs.

    [collapse]

     Characters: Where a lot of the mystery is at-

    Spoiler

    Seems there’s other transmigrators/reincarnations called outworlders

    [collapse]

     Even though not much has happened in terms of schemes and conspiracies, side characters (and enemies) seem rational i.e not dumbed down to cater for the MC. Also has some interesting, if a bit weird, potential interests for the harem. 

    Update stability: Once every other/few days- consistent + long chapters = perfect. 

    As in Charlie’s review, this does what has been done previously very well and is entertaining so an easy 5*s. Looking forward to starting V2.

    Status: chapter 26 – keep your friends close

    This isn't a bad story. The character dialogue is great, the pacing is excellent, and I feel immersed in the world.

    The only thing that sets it back is how generic the plot and setting are. It doesn't do anything special, it has a protagonist from another world, a way to level up, and it's set in a fantasy world. So pretty basic stuff. 

    But what it does makeup is how well it can play these tropes and uses them to their best extents. So while it doesn't do anything special, the author is good at using what is already done, incredibly well. There's also bonus points for not having the protagonist be super OP. It really breaks the tension some scenes could have with a protagonist like that.

    Overall, a good read to pass the time.

    Status: chapter 15 – thrall

    The biggest problem with this story, is that it focuses on the outcome of things, to the exclusion of almost all else. There is extremely minimal build-up or contextualization for events (mainly combat), which leaves the story feeling heavily scripted. You can very clearly feel the author taking a heavy hand to introduce or achieve something for the main character, which doesn't allow him to grow on his own.

    I am of the firm belief, that no matter if it's an author, parent, or god, they should only ever seek to guide their creation, but never control them.

    Not really my cup of tea but the story itself is well writen. Worth giving it a shot.

    An enjoyable read if you like Isekai's where the MC gains a weapon that's also a character. While it does follow some tropes, the author pulls it off decently in the moments.

    The interaction between MC and the artifact is entertaining.

    Overall, the story is easily digestible with a decent cast of characters. The world-building is also enjoyable without overloading the reader in the beginning.
