(Got up to chapter 24)

#Rudylivesdontmatter

Summary: A 34-years-old NEET otaku is chased out from his house by his family. Unattractive and penniless, he finds that he has reached a dead end in life and realizes that his life actually could have been much better if he had made better choices in the past. Just when he was at the point of regret, he saw a truck moving at a fast speed straight towards three high schoolers in its path. Mustering all the strength he had, he tried to save them and ended up getting run over by the truck, quickly ending his life. The next time he opened his eyes, he was already reincarnated into a world of sword and magic as Rudeus Greyrat. Born to a new world, a new life, Rudeus decided that, “This time, I’ll really live my life to the fullest with no regret!” Thus, starts the journey of a man yearning to restart his life.
Currently: On going

I remember reading this when it had a couple of chapters, it was alright, it wasn't amazing but it was bearable. There were some parts of the story where I just wanted to neck everyone on site, because they were just so idiotic, an example would be on chapter 5, the dad decided to go and get the damn maid pregnant, Rudy literally guilt tripped his mother when he should of known that it would be better if they split up, to some people that might not really enter you mind, but as a child on where my parents relationship was based on constant cheating and mistrust, it isn't necessarily good for the children to bare witness to that and its better to move yourself from the situation even if it may hurt your children for a moment. 

Also to continue, Rudy is a literal pervert, I can handle that and honestly wouldnt mind that much. But with Slyphie or whatever her name is, he thought about dating her when she was a child- isnt that technically pedophilia, I understand that he is indeed in a childs body, but to feel sexual intrest to a child despite having the mindset of a 30 whatever old is gross. 

Theres a scene I believe around the 7-9 chapter mark (not certain) on where he watches that chick get beaten up and he's like 'okay- anyway.' I'm curious on why he thought that it was okay, I am aware it was to put her in her position and for her to stop being so snobbish and for her to look at him for help. 
- Just reviewed one of the chapters and he just thought about having sex with her while she was bound- urk.

The only reason this review didn't end in a downright 0 was because of Philips ass and the mothers.

Overall, wouldn't really recommend. If you like it good for you, it isn't for everyone but it could be one of your future favourites so read up to chapter 15 if you decide to give it a try.

The dude finally had a loving family that cared deeply about him and vice versa and he didn't want it to end because of his father's stupid mistake. Amendments can be made in a relationship which is exactly what is portrayed here. Polygamy too may be legal and similarly, having sex with maids is not considered immoral given Eris' grandfather had with a maid. In his previous life, he didnt have any romantic experience whatsoever, while in his second life he has the chance to do so. There is nothing he can do apart from liking girls of his own age of new life and he can't marry any older women cuz again that too is pedophilia. The reason he watched the girl get beaten up was cuz he thought it was all an act given he himself recommended it. And yes he is a horny bastard but again, it IS a story of his redemption.

Totally agreed the story at start when smooth but as soon as it hit the cheating part I dropped it I hated how author wrote it like getting the fantasy vibe of having multiple wives just what the heck is wrong with most author this days just keep coming up with stupid polygamy shits like they are thirsty for women, if only they didn't add those kind of things maybe their story would be so good like just add romance with only one love interest. Ughhh I hate harem so much and one of the reason why harem is shit because mc keeps getting cockblocked because author being a pussy lol.

(Finally some peace of mind I finally let my feelings out now) 

Thanks for reading my complaints.
