I Killed the Player of the Academy Chapter 115 Discussion

It is enjoyable enough to read to be above average. It is a pretty generic story with a good enough execution and difference to be interesting. The greatest strength of this novel has to be the fight scenes especially the one on one fights as the intensity and the details are conveyed pretty well. But honestly the harem here is implemented badly in my opinion. It has the good parts you can expect out of a harem but also the bad parts. The shuraba moments and the heroines are good while giving them enough development but you also have to endure all the frustrating denseness of the MC, the annoying background characters that get mad when MC gets close to a heroine, and the needless misunderstandings. I'm not against harem if it is done well but in this series the usual harem tropes are breaking the emotional significance of some good moments of the novel. Spoiler

An example was when the MC is expressing his heartfelt gratitude towards his Master for taking care of him in the last iteration going even as far as sacrificing her life to save his but the way he is doing it is way too flirty (I mean who in the hell isn't going to misunderstand when first he said to go on a date with him, he then did a kabedon and kissed her on the forehead) despite how MC does not seem to love her in a romantic way leading to his Master misunderstanding what kind of relationship they had in his last life. Instead of focusing on the deep emotions of gratitude the MC is feeling, I am distracted by how unaware the MC is that his actions are conveying something entirely different than what he is intending and how weirdly innocent this thousand year old goddess is.

It is still a good series overall but it has a lot of things that could have been handled better.
