8th Circle Mage Reborn · review
Spoiler warning
This review may discuss plot details.
It is your typical revenge and soul transfer with memory manwha. Get betrayed, seek revenge and find a way to get revenge. This started with a "promising" plot as the main protagonist isn't a muscle head. He doesn't just brute force his way or use the power of friendship to get over obstacle. I would say the first half is enjoyable with a decent built up and plot. The second half just collapse and become nonsensical like a chinese wuxia. Without spoiling too much, one of the antagonist get god like powers out of nowhere without effort. Which destroys the world building and power scaling. What was previously established inthe story has been thrown into the toilet drain. And everyone dies like Kill la Kill.
The MC is degraded to a muscle head with no more wits and will just brute force his way through issues. We loose all the progression of the first half of the story.
The story tries to pack too much world building into some economie system and establishing some principles but everything is scrapped because "magic" or "fantasy", authors forget the rules of his own universe and everything become irrelevant.
Great read when you are in the toilet, airport or bored to death. Avoid if not.
