To sum it up: I didn't expect anything, yet still got disappointed.If not the setting, then the writing would kill my motivation to keep on reading.To the setting:It hurts to even think about. Instead of the usual bishoujo/otome game, here we get the yuri game alternative as a setting. But in an impressively bad variation.Our MC drawing the unlucky card of getting revived as the... let's call it the "antagonist" of the story. While his antagonism is limited to the fact that his game self was "annoying". Just that; annoying. And for that he deserved death in all forms and kinds. Spoiler
Going as far as getting killed for eating someone else's ice-cream... Probably every single to be heroine in this story mu*dered him in some fashion in the game.
[collapse] And this is our "starting point". That's one way to get my expectations to 0 Kelvin.To the writing:This is the author writing to 1/3 about little insignificant details. Instead of starting a story, we apparently firstly need to be briefed about any minor detail this world is supposed to contain, hardly amounting to more than a pitiable attempt of "world building".Another 1/3 is wasted on "jokes". Well, those might work for some, but even in only these 10 chapters I read, the jokes already started getting repetitive. Mostly coming down to the MC rambling on and on about yuri.And the last 1/3 goes to the most cliché ero-game developments imaginable (including the characters and their behavior). SpoilerThe MC meanwhile apparently being OP from the get-go just by having spent some hours jogging. Even surviving a 1 on 1 face off with the strongest early game character.
[collapse] And everything thereafter just going the typical wish-fulfillment, sledgehammer through the wall, route.Honestly, this does feel like the author made an attempt to copy Magical Explorer, yet was unable to add anything of value. Instead just amassed cliché upon cliché.So just not my cup of tea.
