I’m enjoying this a lot. The POV/tenses do switch which I’ve seen in other novels as well so it doesn’t bother me. It seems that was one of the biggest reason for the low rating, which is unfortunate because it’s a fun read.So far the plot isn’t very heavy. Which makes sense considering it’s only the beginning of 400+ chapters. Right now it’s more of MC trying to build up his relationships and Spoiler
form a solid team so he can survive the future and save his sister
[collapse]. The buildup is slow but feels more organic because of this pacing. MC is learning how to get along with each ML and struggling to build that rapport while battling with the realization his knowledge of the ML’s isn’t exactly helping him get closer to them because his knowledge is based off their future version vs the current/past.Ex. Of one of the tidbits I like about the “realistic” aspect of going back to the past Spoilerone of the ML is immediately suspicious of MC and how he occasionally is aware of the ins/outs of the gate when he’s supposed to be a newbie. MC knows he needs to pretend to not know but he slips up time to time. Which makes sense because how can you flawlessly pretend you have no knowledge of the future and pretend your years of experience never happened. You’re bound to slip up somehow by accident.
