Limit Breaker

Author was inspired by dragonball z at one point in the past and thought it was epic, then set out to create something similar except without understanding any part about what made dragonball engaging, and also added in one-punch man to the mix without any of the comedy.

I could tolerate and follow along with most of the work up until S2 where they decide to do incorporate the dumbest events possible making large portions of the work pointless. S2 is essentially a repeat of S1 but even worse; s1 was already beating a dead horse with how one-note it was but s2 decided the horse wasn't quite dead enough yet and they wanted to continue beating on it for an endless amounts of chapters without progressing at all.

I do not see any value in reading this; please read any other work instead of this. Perhaps read this if you want to understand why trying to replicate popular series doesn't work if you don't understand what made them popular in the first place.

MC is basically a god, but has no characterization.

Chapter 1-2 claims he slowly loses his mind over being stuck in the tutorial for thousands of years. He only had one thing keeping him together: the thought of his family (just his mom so far). After finally leaving the tutorial at max stats (we don't know just how much power that is), he goes to look for her. After some conflict, finds her, but things happen...

Everything is good up to that point. Then it just gets weirdly messy.

Think One-Punch Man, except the MC doesn't any motivation behind his strength. He just has it. Yet, he still acts like a hero, in the sense that he doesn't kill humans who try to harm him. Even against the ones who caused his turmoil. When he gets into a fight, he always wins easily, but he also still holds back, with seemingly no reason to do so (or when he has reason not to hold back).

Lots of things that should be going for it, but the MC just seems to be being to sent to places, and the overall plot moves forward, but he acts like he has no care in the world. No inner motivation to find out more on his own (despite the one should-be-important external motivation the story has given him).

Then comes chapter 35. MC comes across a familiar trope: big bad magic machine is doing thing, and is powered by 4 auxiliary battery-machine things. To destroy it, you have to destroy the 4 batteries at the same time first, then destroy the main machine. But...why? Why can't the seemingly-all-powerful MC just destroy the main one? It doesn't say something bad will happen (like an explosion), it just says the auxiliary supplies will be restored. But these are clearly machines? Oh but look! There are 4 friends who just happened to be in the area, so they can take out the 4 batteries at the same time so MC can take out the main. But guess what! Another trope appears: each battery is protected by one of the 4 sub-bosses revealed in a previous chapter! Guess its time for 4 one-on-ones...

The tropes here would be fine, but with the poor story telling of the MC, it just feels like a way for the author to extend the chapter count, and not setup a good story.

They spend all their money on the guy who made the monster art which is fabulous, but the result is that the story is absolutely trash and has zero logic.

Starts strong with a quick-moving story and great art. However, these seem to have been unsustainable by the creators and it soon turns into a bore. By chapter nine, we're already getting 10+ page rehashes of the previous chapter in each new chapter while fights and dialogues are being dragged out. As for other features, the MC has several significant personality shifts that appear out of nowhere, story execution and character decision-making are often poor, and many characters are boring, flat, or have annoying dialogue. Some good comedy might have greatly improved the writers' attempt to transition into a slower pace (the author's sometime attempt this but it nearly always falls flat). One additional mention about the MC is that he doesn't at all seem like he's lived 3,000 years--the authors' succeed in establishing a hollow and unimaginative interpretation of what this would imply and mean for such an MC.

I get the impression that all the creators are fairly young or still new enough that they have a lot of room for growth. Even the artist needs to be reigned in at times to select art that is more aligned with the vision that the author's have created (these sometimes do not mesh). If the creators continue improving their skills, I feel they will end up in a more exciting and quality place in the future.

Well, I was gonna drop it when I thought hey isn't it just a copy of "The Advanced Player of the Tutorial Tower ". But other than the fact that he stayed 3000 years in the Test the story was different. Although I must say the story was plain. The Visuals were great. But other than that it was just simple. I read until chapter 21 and now I am like I just cannot keep going it's getting boring it lacks the skill to captivate the reader. Reading it this much and still not feeling any emotion so yeah it was not the best it is just a 50/50 story or maybe less.

Do you like DB, OPM, SL then this is for you thr MC goes super saiyan but white(...hmmm ultra instinct) one hits most enemies and it has the typical storyline of dugeons/players appearing

as of chapter 12

predictable, low-IQ villains, plain MC, shallow story, there’s just nothing in here that would reel me in.
The beginning was good but that’s it.
This series doesn’t deserve a longer comment. It’s “ok” as a time-killer, don’t expect anything more from it

The art is phenomenal ( one of the best I’ve seen honestly) and it seems to be going in the right direction so far!
