- Comedy, definitely one of the funniest series I've read in a while, had me howling at multiple parts of the series near the end in laughter.
- Good classic weak to strong, mc starts at near the bottom of the barrel with only one to two advantages which slowly snowball into him becoming a one of a kind genius.
- Side characters aren't bad when you are in their arc but imo weaken when it isn't the arc where you meet them.
- Mc gets a romantic partner which isn't actually that bad.
- Mortis... my love, big brain had me howling.
- Really liked the idea of the power system.
- Really loved all the years of training and seclusion, showing how many years it took to learn something just did something for me, loved seeing it.
Disliked:
- The author can get rly fucking repetitive with stuff we already know saying the same thing over and over, sometimes in the next sentence after they already said it.
- Imo I didn't like the author overcomplicating a sentence or just making it alot longer than it needs to be just to make the mc seem incredibly intelligent (And then proceeds to have the mc f*ck up and have someone bring him back on the right path).
- Characters after their arc they were introduced in really just become 2d shadows, you barely seen them and then after hundreds of chapters you are supposed to feel overly emotional, for some I was but those were few, alot of them I really couldn't care.
- Felt like the power system could have had more done with it, it felt like a cool power system was used just to have everyone be the same thing, there were never any cool or genius use of power, it was all just straight forward slashes, explosions, dodging, parrying and such. The mc had some unique abilities but outside of that everyone was pretty basic just with different elements.
- It really felt like the author sometimes punished Grav just for the hell of it without it rly adding anything to the story or emotional value, with just a little change some parts could have been better imo.
- If you like your mcs being in a group then you will have to wait for about 2/3 of the series, it's understandable at some of the times and he does join other groups for a short duration but he always leaves for some reason or another.
Other:
- Ending was not bad imo, seen others like it, reminds me of a few series which I also liked.
- The final arc wasn't the worse, it did feel like it was dragging on and then when we finally got to the part we had all been waiting for it skipped that entire power level. I can't tell if that was a good choice or a bad choice as everything was getting a little repetitive.
All Up:
It was an enjoyable read, definitely wasn't the best but not alot of things are, the comedy was gold and was one of the reasons I stuck around to read it, the rise in power also was enjoyable although imo the battles weren't always the most enjoyable.
Would have enjoyed it more if the final bit was extended more to show more about their final journey but other than that I'm happy with the read. Will have a go at the authors other works after this.

Tis good, read it (hypno toad sounds)
It's a pretty good series, lots of action, lots of badass moments, and lots of character growth.
The world building is also amazing to the point some of my fav chapters are just lore dump chapters or when we find out more about what happened before the story of our cockroach god.
100% read, and the Neph glazing from author does lessen to a great degree the more you get into the series, that rly is the only negative I have with this series.
