Description
I haven’t done anything so far. But now, I’ll do absolutely nothing with even more effort. After being transmigrated into a game world, I made sure to do nothing so I wouldn’t become a variable. And that’s exactly how I got caught by the original main character of the game. “When the alchemists from ‘Ex Machina’ hacked into and seized control of all security systems in Cradle, where were you?” “When the dark mages of ‘Under Chain’ invaded with their undead army?” “When the fanatics from ‘Eden’ brainwashed the undergraduates?” “And when the demon worshippers of ‘Lemegeton’ broke through the main gate?” “You were the only one untouched by every single one of those incidents.” No way, what the hell. This is so damn unfair.

My Thoughts on The Victim of the Academy
First Impressions
"The Victim of the Academy" immediately caught my attention with its premise. A protagonist transmigrated into a world he knows, determined to avoid the main plot at all costs? Sign me up! The idea of a character actively trying to be a background character felt like a refreshing twist on the usual isekai formula. However, I also went in with some trepidation, as I've seen this concept executed poorly before.
What Works Well
What I find most compelling is the protagonist, Johan's, strategic inaction. He's not just lazy; he's actively trying to remain a nobody, and the comedic situations that arise from this are fantastic. His internal monologues are a constant source of amusement, filled with sarcastic observations as his "simple" life spirals out of control. The supporting cast, especially Princess Lobelia, is another highlight. She's intelligent and driven, and her misinterpretations of Johan's actions propel the plot forward in unexpected ways.
Many also praise the pacing, noting that it keeps you engaged with consistent twists and turns. The writing style is accessible and easy to read, making it perfect for a binge. I also appreciate the morally grey areas explored in the novel. Johan's focus on self-preservation, while sometimes frustrating, feels justified in a world teeming with danger. His choices, driven by a desire to survive, lead to unexpected bonds and create a unique dynamic.
Areas of Concern
While the premise is intriguing, I can see where some might find the execution lacking. Some readers may find it frustrating how easily Johan gets dragged into situations despite his best efforts. The plot armor may feel a bit too strong at times, with powerful figures appearing out of nowhere to assist him. There are also mentions of plot holes and inconsistencies, like the academy having constant terrorist attacks with no real security. These criticisms are valid, and I hope the author addresses them as the story progresses.

Final Verdict
Despite some flaws, "The Victim of the Academy" offers a fun and engaging read. The subversion of common tropes, the comedic situations, and the morally grey protagonist make it stand out from the crowd. While it may not be a masterpiece, it's definitely worth checking out if you're looking for a lighthearted and entertaining academy story with a unique twist. I'm personally invested enough to see where Johan's accidental protagonism takes him.
