I was ok with an OP protagonist. It's kind of the whole premise of the last warrior being reborn to try it again.

I was ok with the quality of the translation. You end up with some odd sentences here and there but nothing that distracts you too much.

What ruined the read for me were the sound effects. I've never liked this and this book uses it continuously. I don't even know what “PI PI PIT” is supposed to be or how that relates to the sound of blades striking a shield. I'm also always of the mind that describing a menacing sound is much more effective than trying to write the sound itself. “the dog barks menacingly” rather than, and I kid you not, “woof! woof woof”. One builds tension, the other just breaks you out of your flow going wtf?

I enjoyed the core story, I just don't know if I want to continue with the series because this writing style is frustrating to read for me.
