![]() I'm having a fun time reading this series so far. The protagonist, Jaehwan, loses comrades either by death or regression, but still chooses to continue his climb, vowing to protect the present timeline no matter what. These stones allow the user to regress in time and restart from the beginning of the appearance of the towers so that one can fix their past mistakes. The story quickly introduces an item called a "Stone of Regression'' that can be found in the tower. Select people from each country, known as Tower Walkers, are summoned to complete all 100 floors of the tower in order to save humanity from the monsters. Think of the tower from SAO, but there's multiple of them and they appear in major cities all around the world, along with giant monsters that wreak havoc on humanity. I have not read the light novel, so this review will be based on the manhwa only. Right now it's just perfectly generic in every way.īeing a huge fan of the author's previous work, Omniscient Reader's Viewpoint, I instantly jumped to read this series and have been following its chapters as they are released. Definitely has potential to go into good places, it's just not there yet. It's not bad per say, It's just not particularly good either. The story itself seems to be setting up for quite a long haul, as the world explained throughout the earlier chapters seems to be extremely expansive, and to be honest, I don't even know what the main plot is right now beyond "MC is doing things for the sake of doing things because he doesn't want to regress and so I guess he'll just keep killing stuff." He has no clear goal. This leaves me hesitant to form any emotional connections with these characters. ![]() far below the MC's power level that none of them seem like they'll be relevant for more than a dozen chapters or so, as the MC seems to get exponentially more powerful every scene he's a part of, while the side characters seem to not have any kind of progression so far. They frequently flashback to characters from the MC's past, who we don't know at all and as far as I can tell have no plans to be properly introduced, so there's no emotional impact to any of these scenes. I can't bring myself to care about the characters, as we're only introduced to the MC at the end of his (initial) journey. ![]() Read about 20 chapters in which is close to the amount released at the time of writing, Has interesting ideas that pulled me in initially, but began to really drag on after the first couple of chapters.
