My Thoughts on Rooftop Sword Master
First Impressions
"Rooftop Sword Master" grabbed my attention with its promise of raw, unadulterated revenge. The premise is simple: a bullied weakling rises to become an unstoppable force, fueled by vengeance. I was immediately intrigued by the modern-day setting blended with supernatural elements. It felt like a potentially thrilling ride.
What Works Well
The core strength of this story lies in its satisfying execution of revenge. The protagonist's transformation from victim to apex predator is a major draw. The action is brutal and cathartic. The narrative doesn't shy away from the protagonist's ruthlessness, which, for many, is a refreshing departure from more morally ambiguous revenge stories. The accelerated growth of the main character and his relentless pursuit of power are definitely highlights that kept me hooked. The plot moves at a brisk pace, keeping the reader engaged and eager to see what happens next.
Areas of Concern
While the initial premise and execution are compelling, the later developments seem to introduce some inconsistencies. The power scaling appears to fluctuate, with the protagonist initially portrayed as overwhelmingly powerful, only to face numerous opponents who are suddenly on par with him. This can undermine the sense of dominance established early on. The introduction of super soldiers, androids, and secret organizations also feels like a bit of a jump, potentially detracting from the grounded revenge narrative that initially drew me in.

Final Verdict
"Rooftop Sword Master" is a thrilling revenge story that delivers on its promise of cathartic action and a ruthless protagonist. While some later plot developments and power scaling issues might detract from the overall experience, the initial impact and satisfying execution of revenge make it a worthwhile read, especially if you're looking for a story that doesn't pull any punches. I'd recommend going into it with an open mind and enjoying the ride, even if it gets a little bumpy along the way.
