One of the best isekai Manhwa that i red.
Up to this date the story was running for more than 3 years and the author have kept the story pretty intresting and unique with a diffrent take on isekai and how to be a villain (in a way)



Here is my breakdown

Plot: 7/10
The plot was easy to follow with a medium pacing that while mainly moderate sometimes alternates depending on the event and have some cliffhanger that make you hooked more on the story and just wanna follow through it .
Alghough to this point it seems the author is preparing for some kind of a war that ... should make things more intresting and enjoyable for some.

Art: 7/10
The artwork in this piece captivates with its vibrant colors that pop off the canvas, drawing the viewer into a world of rich hues and intricate details. The backgrounds are masterfully crafted, adding depth and dimension to the overall composition. Each character is not only uniquely designed but also skillfully rendered, showcasing the artist's talent in bringing them to life on the page. The synergy between the colorful backdrop and the meticulously crafted characters creates a visually stunning and engaging experience for the audience, making this artwork a true masterpiece that deserves admiration and recognition.

Character: 8/10
There is many characters in the series however you don't get overwhelmed since the authors did a really good job in each one.
He usually introduces each new character by itsself and if they are important for the story he gives them enough time to have a great intorduction with well written background stories so you can relate to each one and have better understanding of their actions and their course.


Enjoyment: 10/10
The manhwa was a delight to read and personally had much fun doing so and can't wait for the follow up of this story to enjoy it more.

Plot
Our MC wakes up in the body of a small time villain, Cale, inside an Isekai novel. Cale is known as the trash of the country family because of how he always drinks or gets into fights or breaks things etc.. The hero (who himself is Isekai-ed.) of the novel was supposed to beat up Cale for being annoying, and move on to the rest of the story. Instead, our MC decides to become more powerful, so that he can lead a peaceful life. He uses his knowledge to gain power, and make friends with hero and hero's future allies.

Review
Story
Its not bad. Everything always ... goes well for MC. Hero and every character that was supposed to join the "hero" in the novel, ends up becoming friends with MC instead. Everyone trusts our MC and rarely question him. There is no tension at all. For some that might be bad, but you can also think of it as an easy read. We do have pretty female characters, but there's ZERO romance.

The story also has decent pacing. Things just go from one goal to next without any break and this stops the plot from getting stale. But the story seems to be super long considering the scale of the enemy organization. You will need to read 8 - 10 chapters to get the general vibe of the series. Although, we will travel and see plenty of different lore and plots, I would say the general quality of the series stays roughly the same. If you are satisfied by chapter 10, then you will still be satisfied for 100 more chapters. If you are bored (or annoyed) at chapter 10, you should definitely drop this series.

Art
The best part of this series. Like most such manhwa, its filled with pretty backgrounds and cute chibi cartoons.

There's not much else to talk about. It feels like a slice of life adventuring story with MC and his friends. Everyone is nice. If that's your thing, then this series is for you. But one way or the other, this is the series that you will forget after a full night's sleep. You won't ever look back and think "what a great series". So, really really keep your expectations in check before starting.

I feel that this story started out promising all things considered. It's the same troupe as the other stories of I was brought into the world of a character I play/read about that was a villain/unlikable character and I am going to turn that around. He wants to be lazy and build a life that he can escape to and do nothing. And not to explain the plot the story basically goes around gets him to act outside of his comfort zones. Which is where the problems begin. The plot it's self starts to get very stale and boring. As you don't care for plot ... choice because of this lack luster motivation and villains. Many of the mainish side characters seem one dimensional and you feel a reason to care for them, adding up later on in the story. But honestly the story lacks any real tension, fights scene, and or romance to make up for any of the plots short falls.

This problem is especially sad since the author shows they are good at writing cool and engaging world development. Not to spoil anything, but the author will be like there is a very cool and complex problem happening in that kingdom over there. Where to different ideology are going to fight for dominance, but we don't care and will be ignoring all of that and or send some of your strongest side characters to deal with it off screen. Honestly this story is just one really be rug pull after another and it just continues to get worse as I read on. So because of that save your emotions and time for something that will not just continue to let you down.

In terms of the scale I use:
5- Barely watchable, kept my interest and that's about it
