It is definitely a unique non-linear story and meta-commentary on the "Regressor" genre.By reading a couple of chapters you can tell, it's well thought-out and written by an experienced author of the genre. The story reads almost like a documentary or a journal of a man who is trying to keep his mind intact while organizing his thoughts with the depressing nature of his struggles. With an infinite amount of regressions, he will eventually get to his "perfect run" but can his psyche handle it?We delve into tropes like what are constellations and why they are always seemingly in Korea and not around the world? Message boards and the power of communities with the use of gaslighting and gatekeeping. Can one "perfect run" exist? How can certain "Regressors" in stories need only 1 or 2 runs while our MC is with an ongoing struggle of over 1000 lives? What is the true antagonist in Regressor stories? The butterfly effect of course! How would a regressor take a "break" from all the failures?Highly recommended, while the ideas and topics are nothing new in the regressor genre it gives a fresh enough take to interest you. Jumping from serious tales to the outlandish that keep you reading.
