Synopsis

With the unexplained emergence of dungeons came a relentless onslaught of monsters that overwhelmed humanity. Even the Awakened, humans with special abilities to fight monsters, couldn't stop the destruction of the world. In the end, only Sungin Kim, the most powerful Awakened, was left standing. Upon his death, Sungin wakes up twenty years in the past as an unassuming high school student named Soohyun Kim. He's not sure how or why he was brought back, but he does know this is his second chance to save the world and redeem himself as a hero.

Now I won’t go out and say "The Hero Returns" is bad, but I also won’t say it’s one of the best manwhas of its genre. Simply put, I didn’t bookmark it because of how basic the story is, and I had no attachments towards any of the characters.

In the manwha, time skips are used; I personally love time skips but only when they are done right. Sadly, this manwha uses them at the wrong times and mostly for no reason. An author should only use a time skip when a clear setting, purpose, and character has been established but neither of the three happened. ...

I complet the novel and its one of my favorites novels and i think its Very unique.

The world building its infinity better after some time, the Tower, trials, gods, fairy tails. ALL of that mixed Very well and The novel have one of The fews good ends that i read until today.

The problem is that this isnt a story to make a manga, because the start is Very slow until they explore more the others worlds in the trials and looks too much generic in the beggining, takes time until he show emotions.

So i dont know If i can recomend or not.

The concept is quite unique and have a lot of potential (could be very deep like veteran comming back home but can't enjoy his past life because of war and trauma) Chapter 1 was good!

But the writing is very bad, too simple by moment and just dumb/inconsistent in general . There is a lot of gore scenes just for shock value
I hope the webtoon characters don't react realistically when compared to Korean culture. I understand the families' anger when their son come back but (in case of the 2nd warrior) can't you talk more with them, explain the situation and gives them proof by ...
