Amazing. I knew it was going to be good, but honestly I'm pretty stunned. Highlights include an incredibly immersive world, excellent character development, a truly godly translation team up until c40 (massive drop in quality after that, and then it's better again around c80+), a depiction of America that's surprisingly accurate, sprinklings of humour, and zombies.Also, presenting a cool MC with ethical principles, a stand against racism/sexism, and a tragic, realistic, traumatic past that isn't "I saved the world but my friends all backstabbed me then I went back in time so now I'll show them all"! 10/10. I'm devastated that the translator for chapters 1-40 has apparently been shipped off to mandatory military service, according to some of the comments.Downsides: I could only find one weakness in the series and it is that Japan and China are a teensy bit stereotypical. The author's depiction of Americans feels like they've spent significant time in the country (or anyway have a lot of exposure to the cultural nuances and values), and obviously the same for Koreans, but not so for the other two.EDIT: In chapter 100, the author mentioned that they have never been further than Jeju Island. All I have to say is... author, I salute your dedication to research. o7 lmao
