I like the premise

I love that, in the future he came from, everyone was like "we chose the wrong 'hero'" and now, after regressing, he's doing everything he can to prove the "hero"-to-be is a bad choice.

The art is inconsistent and a little below average.

To the reader who's annoyed about him claiming he's a genius and comes from a good bloodline: he's not saying that because that's what he believes. Everytime he says that, it's used as an excuse to cover up his lifetime of experience and knowledge from before regression. What other excuse would you come up with? The people in this universe already have difficulty believing in prophecies, so they would consider him absolutely insane and not hero material if he claimed to be a regressor.

I really liked the MC's lousy attitude

In the way he just did not GAF about anyone's life trajectory and was just trying to bulldoze his way to maximum combat unit efficiency.

That is all this manhwa has going for it. I dropped it after season 1 ended.

It isn't bad ''per se'', it has a decent yet not too original start, but as it goes on more and more cliches are added. I read till chapter 25 and I¡l drop it unless it manages to squeeze up the rankings this year.

I mean the fact that he constantly saying how he's a genius and how it's all in the blood (at least 5 times per chapter) is really of putting, specially when he was supposedly quite dumb until 23 … The last nail in the coffin was randomly trying to put random Norse mythology elements into the novel with 0 context.

The art is a bit weird (especially around their eyes occasionally) but overall the series isn't bad. The opening chapter had some really amusing trope inversion going on, with the 'prophesied hero' getting offed and the rest of the party being like 'gdi, I knew we never have left it to that idiot'. Cue eventual time reversal, and the MC (mage, NOT the hero who died) rises from his pre-tragedy past.

So yeah, standard regression, with many familiar tropes thrown in. Like for example, the political engaged fiance breaking it off with him because he's a loser (except it's actually a coverup, as they cheated and broke the engagement rules beforehand).

So yeah, it has its fair share of tropes, but it's not overly formulaic. I like how the stuff was woven together, and even the antagonists so far aren't really evil, as just on opposing sides. Plus, the actual apocalypse hasn't happened yet with the Demon Lord or whatever, so there's more to look forwards to, though as a result a lot of the story (so far) is centered on politics and big-braining stuff.
