Kshitij Rajp mentioned about how the MC blamed others for misunderstanding him despite his actions being misleading, and questioning why only the MC can handle the trauma. The thing is, the author has quite clearly stated several times before that point that he can't.
Firstly, if he could handle his trauma, he wouldn't have killed himself after the events leading to his transmigration.
Secondly, after his transmigration, he got gifted with an EX skill specifically tailored to prevent him from feeling suicidal, and even that showed signs of breaking down from the moment it was introduced.
to add on to that, he also got burdened with the lingering memories of his new body (which probably also made the original body kill himself too), so now there's literally two times the negative emotions of a person who has attempted su*cide.
I really don't think 5 teenagers who have never been exposed to that type of emotional load before would be able to handle it, even if split into 5.
Also about the misunderstanding bit. You are expecting a person who is already all but mentally broken, being barely held up together by the joint efforts of a "skill" that can only just barely hold him together, and drugs, in a serious life and death condition, having surgery done on him awake without any form of pain numbing, to be rational.
Really?
[collapse]Cons:1. This is depressing. I mean yeah that's obvious from the title, but it's really, really gloomy, to the point where I'm not sure if it should even be done as a web novel like this. It's not even interesting gloomy, like Overlord, for example, but rather just the nearly 24/7 pov of self loathing from our MC, which while I do understand what the author is trying to portray, still does not make for good reading.2. With the story being intended to be so emotionally heavy as it is, the pacing is much too fast for it to work. Most of the characters aren't given enough time to be fleshed out properly before things happen or they die, and that's probably why they feel so shallow or two dimensional, Which also leads to the MC feeling lackluster in personality beyond his gloomy outlook on life.All in all, it's an accurate portrayal of someone who is struggling to live, but as a novel it's not very well done.
