Edit: Well, I have to say that as the story continues, its quality only continues to drop. The chapters have started to become extremely short, with each chapter barely containing any real substance. Character development and world building went to utter shit. It is clear that the author needs the help of an editor to help trim off the unnecessary parts and focus on the important parts. Shame, after the bad writing of volume 4, volume 5 starts off with a blast; it even had the potential to surpass volume 1, the best volume imo, however, the author ruined it by continuesly dragging it on. 3 stars for now, as it is still better than some of the other trapped in a dungeon novels.Original review:Let me start with saying that you will not always get the viewpoint of MC and this can last for up to 20 chapters. So if you do not like this, then this novel is not for you. However, as a result, side characters get a lot of development, to the point, where it made me like and root for a character that I once hated.Now let me address something the other reviewers said about the MC is being "wishy washy" and dense. There are actually two particular personalities of MC. The pre-dungeon, cowardly and timid MC, MC 1. And the while dungeon MC, the strong, crazy, battle-hungry and smart MC, MC 2. After conquering the dungeon, both of personalities merge to give birth to MC 3, who is primarily dominated by the characteristics of MC 2, except for one aspect. While the MC was trapped in the dungeon, he had never fought an actual human, so he does not know the true extent of the powers possessed by the humans and since, he, who is the holder of the weakest gift, was able to conquer the said dungeon; he believes other will be able to do so as well. As a result, while he acknowledges that he is one of the top being, he never puts himself on a pedestal and is always cautious and plans his moves well. However, with all that being said, he never shies away from a fight, even if he believes his opponent to be one of the strongest humans because he is still just as battle hungry and it is his source of motivation and in away, his raison d'etre. Additionally, he is still quite friendly towards his friends and family, even if they were not very nice to him when his gift was revealed because he believes it is beneath him and petty to hold a grudge against an 'youngster'.
