Level Up With Skills

I wish I had a super power. You know, nothing fancy. Just the reality-warping authority of manipulating retroactively the amount of budget a manga gets into its production. Ideally, by stripping it away from the undeserving ones. I would be a menace, but also a force of good. 

The first thing I would do is depriving the plethora of pōrnwhas (you know which ones, hetero hentais with no characterization where a paper doll MC fùcks insane amounts of pus****) of their artistic prowess, dynamic visuals (used for fùcking) and glistening fluid depiction (used guess for what?). Then I would inject a good amount of those in this manga. 

Repurposing all of that art budget in great anatomy for MC, visually impressive fight choreographies, better faces, better item design, better environments! All things this one lacks, magically transplanted! 

Transplanted in a manga with a remarkable rendition of the action formula. With a great pacing in power acquisition and evolution. With a good sense of adventure! With interesting characters! Decently written, even genuinely touching at times! 

In fact, this manga actually has one of the most stable and competent examples of the tower of trials trope. And I fùcking love that trope. I fùcking love the floors, the rewards, everything. Is it clichè? Fùcking yeah? And? It's clichè for a good gōddamn reason. It's fun and relaxing.

But then I remember that the art is... Okay. And my dreams end. I do not have reality bending budget powers. And I cannot give this one the GAI it deserved in another universe, with a better artist and more time to develop the fights. And that kills me inside. 

8½ on the Ivern Scale™️. It is so, so enjoyable. And sadly, also a bit ugly and wonky. You can relate to the second part, I'm sure, so be kind with it.

This is not a story that's gonna suprise you whatsoever. It's cliche, it's corny, and it's predictable, but beyond all that, it is pretty fun. Seeing that progression and growth in skills and powers is fun, and while unoriginal, the story is somewhat there. This is yet another guilty pleasure manga, and it realizes that. 5/7. Good.

I like the series, people say it's slow especially in the beginning but that's mainly due to world and character building, it shows us the world the characters are in and shows us what type of person the MC is, and it does a decent job with the side characters too, I'd give it a shot if I were yall I think the world building is on the better side of some of the things I've read especially with the first few chapters where they don't just jump right in to him regressing but they show what's going on and why it's happening but still leaving some mystery for us to figure out later

I read 14 chapters, progress is too slow, it feels like max 3 days passed in the manhwa, not many interesting skills or items are being acquired, nothing special goes on, there's nothing that hooks the reader to the manhwa, and most names have "kang" like the author was too lazy to put names, and too much talking, it gets really boring because of how much talking.

20 chapters in and I have no motivation to keep reading. The author made no effort to try and hook in the reader, there was no character introduction so the Mc seems to be just an everyman system Mc with no personality outside of wanting to become strong. Also little to no side characters, there was like a few characters introduced but they all had brief appearances just to compliment the Mc and then he went right back to gaining skills and fingering his ass****. This is like a gym bulking meal with chicken and rice it has protein and nutrients but has no taste whatsoever. Ultimately, it's just another system tower manwha thats fun for a bit but gets stale pretty soon after.
