The 100th Regression of the Max-Level Player Chapter 138 Discussion

PG13 Edgelord cranked up to 11. I am not joking. Your enjoyment of this series is very dependent on how much you can enjoy/tolerate edgelord content.

I feel like a lot of the higher rating reviews are completely skipping over some major flaws this series has.

SA against women comes up every 20-30 chapters. Yes, I counted.

Spoiler

At one point protag ens*aved a woman for non-s*xual reasons, but still.

The protagonist Ryu Min, will mu*der anyone he deems deserving of it (will even extort and torture beforehand) but then judges characters such as the Dark Knight for doing the same exact things.

The romance is weird. Spoiler

Protagonist tricks himself into having feelings for a girl for plot reasons and that's how the romance progresses.

[collapse]

Female characters are pretty Cookie cutter stereotypes. Buffer is Girl Next Door, Summoner is the Hot Popular Girl, Priestess is Damsel in Distress, another is the Seductress, etc. And of course they all for for protag one way or another.

Characters make s*upid choices and/or plot convenience happens to help make protagonist look awesome and OP. And sure, protag has lived this life 100 times before but that only explains so much.

That said, after a while I started to enjoy how hypocritical the protagonist was. It just became comical. The Dark Knight has so much at stake for him I grew invested in what would happen to him. While the romance is weird I am enjoying it's development. I like the premise of survival games and how the rounds get changed up is interesting.
