Became a Racist at the Academy

My Thoughts on Became a Racist at the Academy

First Impressions

Okay, let's be real, the title "Became a Racist at the Academy" is what initially grabbed my attention. It's provocative, bordering on outrageous, and I went in expecting a wild ride. The premise, transmigrating into a system administrator role and then somehow becoming a racist in a fantasy academy, is just bizarre enough to be intriguing. I was ready for some serious comedic chaos.

What Works Well

The initial chapters definitely deliver on the promised humor. The author clearly knows how to mine comedy from the protagonist's increasingly unfortunate circumstances. He's a magnet for things going wrong, and the misunderstandings that arise from his actions are genuinely funny. The academy setting itself is pretty standard fantasy fare, but the MC's unique situation adds a layer of absurdity that keeps things interesting, at least for a while.

Areas of Concern

My biggest issue, and I think others might agree, is that the initial comedic momentum isn't sustained throughout the entire story. While the premise is hilarious, the execution starts to feel a little repetitive after a while. The "racism" aspect, which is really more about a series of unfortunate and misinterpreted actions, loses some of its punch. It starts strong, but the story struggles to maintain that initial level of comedic brilliance. The plot seems to stall out after a while, and the humor becomes more subdued.

Final Verdict

"Became a Racist at the Academy" is a fun, if flawed, read. It's got a killer premise and a strong start, filled with laugh-out-loud moments. However, the story doesn't quite live up to its full potential, and the humor mellows out significantly as it progresses. If you're looking for a lighthearted comedy with a slightly edgy premise, this might be worth checking out. Just be aware that the initial comedic fire doesn't burn as brightly throughout the entire novel. I'd give it a solid 3 out of 5 stars. It's entertaining, but could have been so much more.
