Synopsis

"You're a genius." Those words he heard as a child were poison. Encrid dreamed of becoming a knight, but he soon realized it was futile. "You want to live by the sword with that level of skill?" Some laughed at him. "Just give up." Some advised him against it. Despite that, his dream remained steadfast. He slept less, ran more, and trained harder. One day, he died, having been stabbed in the neck. Encrid opened his eyes again to "today's" morning.

The Dark Souls of Manhwas.

Enkrid is a brutally resilient warrior with no talent, but in a way that differs from the cliché. He doesn't become a ridiculously broken character, the challenges he faces are all very different from each other and require him to constantly reinvent himself and think outside the box.

His squad, “The Madmen”, are not useless characters for the protagonist to humiliate, they clearly and consistently demonstrate that they are far better than Enkrid due to their great talent in very different areas, and that if it weren't for the repetition of their aggressive teachings, Enkrid would really have no chance of surviving. ...

Preliminary (82/? eps)
10/10, whilst not something which tries to imply deeper meaning or make the reader question anything, I don’t judge simply based on that and i don’t add or remove ratings simply because the media tried to add some sort of existential meaning to the manwha.

The basic premise of an untalented individual constantly repeating his life until he beats near-impossible scenarios allows the author to create settings that are both grounded and larger than life, each fight scene is something that the power setting has allowed and is realistic to an extent to the reader.

The art is good with the artstyle being unique, ...
