Batsh*t Crazy

Starts out great, but the author severely overestimates their storytelling ability. They actually tried to tie in a time travel plot with furries and political protest.

First of all, the furries. I'm not talking about your bog standard fantasy races - these characters are such obvious OC inserts that it's hard to miss. This matters because in these types of stories, I find that continuity typically goes out the window. They either have absurd romantic plots or nonsensical hamfisted "character development" that gets thrown out a few pages later.

This might seem like a weird complaint, but literally a few pages after a great combat scene, the MC's solution to him being summoned into another world is to stop his own summoning via traveling back in time. Let's not think about how that makes absolutely NO sense for a moment. Instead, how about we have the MC go protest in the capital of a friggin' monarchy. The same monarchy which framed him for murder. Um, are you actually nuts? This is played off like some genius gambit that gets the MC into the capital... Somehow...

Oh, but it gets better. In this world, everyone has special skills. The author tries to play off the earlier interplay between the MC and the princess as some kind of impossibility if she were not human. This is based entirely on an info drop that conveniently happens at the moment it's needed. Which is terrible pacing, by the way. They then try to say that the princess was betrayed by her retainer, but it's incredibly obvious that the princess was just using the MC and "vanished" for a while to protect herself from the skill usage of the MC's furry companion. Buuuut everyone just accepts this nonsensical sequence of events.

Speaking of nonsense, said furry girl died for him and he just goes "ah well, it was an accident?" The hell is wrong with you?

As if that all weren't enough, the MC learns that someone has a foresight skill that allows them to predict his time travel and he still insists "yeah, I wanna protest anyway!" He couldn't even get close to the capital if literally anyone seriously wanted him dead. The only reason he manages anything at all is because the princess is pulling strings to puppet him like a marionette... And he just goes along with it.

All of this, all of it, is only possible because of the princess' aforementioned retainer. Said retainer's skill is so overpowered that he's basically a god. Since we don't know what skills he has, this character might as well be literally named "god from the machine." And if they're so powerful, why the hell are they fooling around with tricks and games like a low-level imp? Talk about a gaping plot hole. Even if we assume this retainer is just the MC himself via more time travel shenanigans, it makes zero sense why there's so much idiocy. Even if actual reasons for all of this came out later, you still have the problem of zero foreshadowing, making it feel incoherent in the meantime.

This author seems to have no grasp of basic logic. I'm not saying a fictional world needs to be realistic, but goddamn, at least try to make sense. If you don't wanna do that for plot reasons, then stop making all the characters accept the BS. Normal people are gonna doubt insane nonsense, so at least have your characters doubt the insanity in front of them.
