i understand that this is ur first novel and English isn't ur first language however using a.i to correct sentences isn't the way. every other sentence becomes repetitive for example "no aftershock, no heat, no drain... just Silence" and so on and so forth, you aren't the only author to do this and u won't be the last but as i said the writing sounds robotic.

yo did u drop the novel?

I'm very conflicted by this novel, on one hand I like that the mc isn't an anti-hero bcs let's be honest nowadays every fckn novel has one of those and it makes the mc seem like a copy paste from other novels. However on the other hand you as in the author very much exaggerate with the bullying, because I can't fathom how the mc is even sane at this point. In reality the only thing stopping the mc from becoming a villain is his mother cause if he was an orphan i bet on everything that he would be a villain. The hate is too forced it's getting tiring reading the same shit over and over again, like a chinese novel where young masters are on the mc's case for absolutely no reason. I like the concept of the novel but it's like the story gets clouded over by meaningless bullying, for example one character I can't stand is Cecil, the other bullies i can kinda understand they're insecure af but we get introduced to Cecil and she tries to expose the mc. im like ok she is a journalist no biggie, 10 chapters later she wants to ruin the mc's life and when asked why the answer is just cuz. This is what i mean It's like the side characters have no identity of their own and they could just be called bully 1, bully 2 and so forth.

I don’t mind an overpowered main character in fact, I enjoy it when it's done right. But Atticus doesn't feel like a person. He doesn’t have a personality, emotional stakes, or even quirks that make him interesting. He reacts to everything with the same detached logic, like a narrative machine. There’s no charm, no warmth, no internal contradictions nothing that makes him feel human. Unlike other OP protagonists like Ainz (Overlord) or Cale (Trash of the counts family), Atticus rarely reflects on his choices or struggles with even a hint of vulnerability. His victories don’t reveal anything about him, and his thoughts are so sterilized they feel AI-generated. He’s not even “coolly stoic” he’s just blank. A strong cast can often elevate a flat main character, but side characters in this novel feel like props. They orbit around Atticus with little agency, personality, or emotional depth of their own. No one challenges him, surprises him, or forms a memorable connection. Relationships are shallow and transactional. There’s no banter, no real camaraderie, no tension just plot tokens who exist to validate how smart or powerful he is. Atticus Odyssey has all the surface elements of a classic OP reincarnation story but none of the heart. It reads more like a sterile power simulation than a story about a person. Without a compelling inner life or meaningful relationships, even the biggest wins feel empty. Verdict: Feels like it was written by an AI. Cool concepts, but no personality. Will I keep reading? Probably not. Rating: 2/5

I read up to ch 150 and i kinda lost interest, i see the complaints people have in the review section but i find those kinda petty and not rly a big deal. For example i didn't mind the mc being immature, it's actually pretty realistic people don't realize how immature a 16 year old boy can be so I'm fine with that. what annoyed me to no end tho was the mc's stupidity, now as i said pre time skip i had no problems with how little the mc used his copy skill. He simply never got many opportunities to use it. Then when we get the time skip and he's going to hunt an elemental beast i thought hey since the mc is lvl 14 and only has copied 4 skills at the moment this will be a great opportunity to get plenty of useful skills for himself and his beasts. Fast forward to the long awaited battle against the elemental beast who btw had plenty of useful skills, the mc goes ahead and kills it without copying a single skill. Now I'm no author but i gotta ask what are u waiting for? 150 chapters in and the mc is lvl 14 with 4/14 copied skills? what's the point of the skill if he ain't gonna abuse it? i held out as long as i could and gave the novel a fair chance but I'm simply disappointed the mc has all the tools available to him to become op as the tags suggested but he simply lacks the iq to use those tools not that it takes a genius to understand how to take advantage of his skill.

I usually wait to review a novel after I've read at least 100 chapters just so i can give the novel a fair chance to show me exactly what to expect. The novel from chapter 1- 100 was a good read, the writing was consistent in which you don't feel like you're being bombed with new info and it doesn't feel awkward. The characters are fine for the most part, the mc is not bland and some side characters are interesting however the novel is lacking in this department especially when it comes to "minions" that are there to create 2 chapters worth of drama for no reason. Some might enjoy face slapping but for me its just a waste of time especially when its irrelevant mobs. The world background is decent although we do get more of it after 100 chapters i think the info we got pre chap 100+ is satisfying. Now comes the con and yes i mean one single con that made me take a break from this novel. After some big event chap 100 something the writing quality drops and at first I thought it was A.i but it wasn't if i would guess it might be fatigue and in that case author pls take a break bcs right now the novel is suffering from this. When i say the writing quality drops i don't mean translation or gramar faults but repetition and filler writing, for example, "The rock was sharp but not enough to cut and not too dull" very very detailed filler things that doesn't matter. It might sound good that everything is detailed until you realize that the chapter was 70% describing what the path to the peak of the mountain was and 30% story progression. This writing flaw show's up at the chapters after 100 and its quite annoying especially since the premise of the novel is good and have a lot of potential.
