Regression Is Too Much

It's truly fantastic! Our protagonist, Kim Jun-ho, possesses the unique ability to regress, but he involuntarily resets when even slightly injured. Despite his incredible regression power, navigating the treacherous Tower requires him to sharpen his skills, strategize, and prevent getting lost amidst numerous regressions.

What I particularly appreciate are the elements that keep it grounded:

1. Jun-ho is intelligent, but not invincible. He combines his regression prowess, understanding of tower-themed narratives, and logical reasoning to uncover the mysteries of each level. If you're familiar with this genre and pay close attention, you can also unravel the secrets.

2. The emotional depth is captivating. Jun-ho's fear stems from the possibility of abandoning his friends by failing floors repeatedly. He grapples with the regressor-depression syndrome and starts viewing his teammates almost like NPCs due to his repetitive knowledge of their actions. His struggle to maintain his identity and the genuine bond between characters is portrayed beautifully.

3. The novel humanizes NPCs, offering a thought-provoking perspective. The goblins and goblin shaman in the tutorial are not just mindless creatures; they exhibit traits of humanity. The second floor's residents and their constrained lives raise ethical questions, challenging not only the NPCs but also the climbers who, like them, might be driven by an indifferent force.

In conclusion, I highly recommend this engaging and well-written novel!

I must say, I rather enjoy this novel. The character's journey with his flawed regression ability and the struggle to maintain his mental stability captivates me. I appreciate the slow build-up as the story progresses, where I try to pace myself by reading a few chapters at a time after each floor milestone.

However, the inconsistent translation speed becomes a challenge. There are days when no updates come, followed by unexpected drops of a single chapter, and then suddenly, multiple chapters land in one day – it's quite unpredictable.

While it feels somewhat premature to assign a full 5-star rating at this stage, the series holds promise and appears to be improving consistently. The plot takes a familiar regression theme and pushes it to an extreme level. The true potential begins to reveal itself during the climax of the first arc, with elements reminiscent of the intense "SSS-Class Suicide Hunter" genre.

There's a risk that the story might lose its direction due to the repetitive nature of climbing floors in a tower, which is a common trope in such narratives. Additionally, there's concern that the protagonist might turn into an overpowered Mary Sue as he gains strength and learns to manage his traits. I'll keep an eye on the series and update my review if either of these issues materialize.

The narrative is heartwarming, centered on the theme of regression. It shares similarities with titles like SSS-Class Suicide Hunter, where the protagonist applies their intellect to protect others, not just relying on brute force. The concept of regression is intriguing – even a minor割伤 from a blade of grass triggers it. What sets this story apart is its willingness to delve into the character's personal journey, capturing the emotional rollercoaster and intimate connections forged along the way. These elements make the reading experience highly rewarding.

The only potential drawback could be the slower translation pace. However, for those who appreciate the regression genre, this book stands alongside SSS-Class Suicide Hunter and Omniscent Reader as a must-read recommendation.

I must confess, the story exceeded my expectations in a delightful manner.尽管采用了倒退者的常见叙事手法，但主角哪怕微小的伤害都会引发退化这一设定着实增添了趣味性。小说逐步揭示塔系统及其运作方式的方式也相当吸引人。

总的来说，我对后续内容充满期待，只盼更新节奏能加快一些。这绝对是一部不容错过的佳作！

I really enjoy the novel, but I find the slow update pace quite disappointing. The story progresses at such a leisurely pace that it's frustrating to read only a few chapters every couple of weeks. I suggest you save it for later or add it to your list, and perhaps revisit it in a few years when it might have reached its conclusion.
