Touka is a very memorable MC, and the absurdity of the adventure he goes with his companions makes for some very laugh out loud moments where you can't help it but smile. The lengths he goes on about his fetishes will even begin to rub on you at some point, he's that convincible.

To put is simply, this manga is a masterpiece
From start to end it's fun, engaging, and almost poetic

MC has extreme thigh fetish.

Childhood friend/Yuna's kinda annoying though..

It's good for comedy lovers/ecchi/fanservice.

EDIT:

Man, MC's thigh fetish was so strong that it sort of rubbed off on me. Now, every time I see thicc thighs, I'm like, "the MC from that manga I read would surely put knee socks on that". THAT'S how strong his thigh fetish was.

I really like this Manga, the art is wonderful and the comedy is amazing, from the first moment its already great, but it even improves as the story advances, the characters are likeable too, you cant help but love them, even "Pieces of shit" like Kyle are amazing (If you're just starting to read it and dont understand this, just wait a little and you'll see an existence above the gods), the story gets really interesting as well, and it gets action scenes that while not being the main focus, steal the show, now, about the bad things... Yuna (The childhood friend), is the worst character by far, from beginning to end, it gets more bearable as the story progresses tho. The fanservice is also kinda exaggerated but welp, with Touka as MC it becomes entertaining.

good starting,but after maze chap end . i have no more reading motivation.

It was decent at the start but after several dozen chapters, you could feel it gradually turning more serious. A seriously stupid and ridiculous story with equally retarded characters doesn't have what it takes to pretend to be serious. It's an eyesore. While jokes keeps on being present even in later chapters, it's instead done in a way that is in no way smooth or well done, they're out of place because the became too serious in a stupid way to handle them.

While the scene is all serious and everyone is being all dramatic and tragedy is in the air, you can't just all of a sudden make the characters act like retards, pulling stupid shit and resolving things in ways that makes you remember the power of friendship and love and how they just inexplicably win because of... no reason whatsoever.

This manga is a trainwreck and not in a good way. I had hoped it would keep the initial comedic tone and justify its main characters(and everyone else for that matter) being retards and doing shit that makes no sense, but the author went somewhere he should've never gone, he ruined it completely and right now it's not worth reading at all.

This manga would be trash rated if not for the initial chapters being good and the majority of the ratings coming from people who loved those early chapters.

Dropped.

3/10 because the earlier chapters were quite funny.

It's not everyday that fan service is used seriously by an author. Well, I'm not sure serious is the appropriate word but anyway. In 'The Hero is Dead' the fanservice is one of the plot key point and that's what make this title unique.
Of course if one is too serious to not see the derision in this subversion of the genre and don't want to see his hero fighting with kneesocks then this title is not for you. Otherwise you will certainly laugh a good amount of time.

the premises and plots are good... enough to keep me reading it
but overuses in fan services, killed the joy..

This one is kind of a record, I dropped it after 10ch or so, I liked the start, when the hero dies but that's it, after that it went downhill fast and that was that.
A disgusting main char, a story that doesn't take itself seriously and is hardly coherent (only 10ch so can't say much thou), fights that are in the least interesting since as said they are intended as a joke and secondary characters that make no sense either because they have air in their brain or them being part of the party just doesn't add up, and most importantly, the comedy is not to my taste.

I kind of expected this series to lose steam very quickly, since the premise IS funny but it's not a premise you'd expect to hold for 70 chapters. Thankfully with the first and even moreso the second arc, the author started to show that the manga could be more than a comedy, and could in fact use comedy to the advantage of action, making fight scenes strange and interesting. The main character is an awful person, but that makes him refreshing actually. This has turned out to be a pretty good parody of the ordinary adventure story, but when it plays some cliches straight for emotional impact that impact actually feels earned. Good stuff. GREAT thighs. Gave the series a full review going over my thoughts on it in full.
