My Thoughts on The Forsaken Hero
Okay, let's dive into "The Forsaken Hero." I went in with mixed expectations, considering the range of opinions floating around, and here's what I've gathered after digging in.
First Impressions
Honestly, the setup feels a little familiar. I can see why some readers are drawing comparisons to "Arifureta" with the initial betrayal scenario. A seemingly weak MC gets the short end of the stick, and revenge becomes a primary motivator. It's a well-trodden path, but that doesn't automatically make it bad.
What Works Well
What I found interesting is the potential for the MC's development. While some find him lacking, I think there's room for him to grow beyond just a revenge-fueled engine. The "conditional power" aspect tied to his resurrections could lead to some clever strategic moments. I'm also intrigued by the female characters and the potential for a harem (which, let's be honest, is a key tag here). There's a lot of variety in the love interests, and I am curious to see how the relationships develop.
Areas of Concern
My biggest hesitation stems from how the MC handles his newfound power. Some readers pointed out instances where he seems to kill innocents for convenience, and that definitely raises a red flag. I worry about whether he'll become irredeemable, or if there's a chance for him to learn from his mistakes. There are also some concerns about internal consistency, like how his clothes remain intact after multiple deaths. These little details can pull me out of the story if they aren't addressed.

Final Verdict
"The Forsaken Hero" is a bit of a mixed bag. It has potential with its revenge-driven plot, unique power system, and diverse cast, but it also stumbles in areas of character consistency and questionable morality. Ultimately, whether or not you enjoy it will depend on your tolerance for morally grey protagonists and your interest in the harem elements. I'm cautiously optimistic and will continue reading to see if it can overcome its flaws and deliver a truly compelling story. I would rate it 3.5/5.
