The most general rundown I can give without spoilers is that MC gets betrayed by his party members and is promptly executed after defeating the demon king, he is then reborn into the body of a young boy about a year after his execution. I would assume the story's already low score can be attributed to people seeing the description and opening chapter which rightfully gave off the impression of the 100000th revenge fantasy copycat. Though it might devolve into the usual cliches later down the line (comes with the harem tag ig) for now the story is pretty solid and not as typical as one might assume mainly because the MC vehemently chooses not to give into his darker desires to kill all who wronged him, damned shame since that always makes for a great story (sarcasm btw). But yeah that's what mainly sets this story apart but that is more than enough cause it allows the story to go in any direction it pleases, it doesn't just lock it in the lane of a revenge fantasy. The other thing that it has going for it is that this story is still really dark in tone, it's like the setting was created for a revenge fantasy, with highly manipulative characters, violence and general antics like that, but our MC doesn't easily give in to the evil rather focusing on surviving in order to hopefully live a peaceful life away from everything. Then there is the harem tag which I know many people hate but there is a pretty good coherent story in addition to that, like I said earlier it might devolve into revenge or the usual 'emotionally and psychologically tormenting all of the attractive women that wronged me' sthick but I'll give the author the benefit of the doubt cause he's really setting up a good story and I'd be pretty impressed if he actually delivered something meaningful from such a contrived premise. So all in all it's still early in but I've enjoyed what I have read and like the direction that the story is currently going in, so I will be keeping my eye on it. Here's to hoping. (Damn I'm a certified yapper, I didn't plan to type out this much especially not for 11 chapters💀...)
