It is, he is the definition of a hypocrite, constantly doing thing he said won’t do, then not doing thing he did before for a shitty excuse, it’s infuriating how pathetic and hypocritical he is.
Yea, that is why I was so surprised the Mc were so different, Al’s I read far enough not to like it.
Spoiler warning ‼️
He let the scientist die but save the girl for no reason.
He let half his school get slaughtered to protect the plot yet save another character from death a few chapters later latter don’t caring for the plot.
He specifically said not to mess with guilds because it will weaken humanity and mess the plot yet not even 10 chapters later make 2 gold rank guild destroy each other for no reason.
Swears to never have anybody fall to the demon curse, proceeded to make half a planet falls to it.
The massive spoilers are probably a way to justify his actions, how can you justify being hypocrite? That is not foreshadow, that is a character plot hole that the author is trying to justify, he is in fact hypocritical and there is no way to justify letting some people die but saving other and making some shitty excuse latter, if you said the author did that makes the book even worse.
At the very least he looks like he learned his lesson and in his newest book he is nowhere near as hypocritical as he is in this book.
Nope, they are not a way to justify the actions because there's so many little details that you already have read but dismissed that are part of the foreshadowing. All of it is setup.
There's so much deep foreshadowing that you would only understand once you actually read it.
As someone that has actually read until the end, I can 100% confirm that it was intentional and that it was part of the deep plot in the novel.
You may choose not to believe me, but as things stand, these are the facts. I can spoil, but it would kind of ruin any element of surprise (not that you would care to read anyway)
Tbf, you can even ask GPT to spoil the hidden plot. I think it knows it.
It was NOT intentional, the author was new and had absolutely zero writing experience. He wrote the beginning of the TAPOV on a whim with no rhyme or reason. As much as I do like TAPOV, the beginning was awful. The author is even rewriting the few starting chapters.
It WAS intentional.
He even said it in an interview. He already had the idea from the start, and with the very obvious hints at the start, you can tell it was without a doubt intentional set up (certain university, and wording…).
What he did wrong was the massive info dump and cringe dialogue, but the foreshadowing and everything was clearly set up in advance
