There is No Such Thing as a Bad Hunter

My Thoughts on There is No Such Thing as a Bad Hunter

"There is No Such Thing as a Bad Hunter" promised a fun dive into the world of hunters and dungeons, and for the most part, it delivered. I found myself drawn into the story of our MC, who, despite facing unwarranted hate and rumors, maintains a pragmatic and kind demeanor. The premise of him being the first awakened hunter definitely piqued my interest.

First Impressions

Initially, the dynamic between the MC and ML had me hooked. Their bickering felt like a playful schoolyard squabble, adding a lighthearted touch to the often-serious hunter genre. I was eager to see how their relationship would develop, especially with the hints of a "crazy" side to the ML. The world-building also felt familiar in a comforting way, reminding me of other popular series in the genre.

What Works Well

The MC's personality is a definite highlight. His kindness and willingness to sacrifice himself for others, even strangers, makes him a compelling protagonist, even if it sometimes borders on frustratingly idealistic. I also have to give major props to the translator; the translation is smooth and easy to read, making the story even more enjoyable. The plot itself is interesting, offering a solid foundation for a fun dungeon-crawling adventure.

Areas of Concern

Okay, let's talk about the ML. While some might find his obsessive tendencies endearing, I can see how it could be a major turn-off for others. His actions sometimes felt disrespectful of the MC's boundaries, and I understand the frustration that arises when the MC's feelings seem to be dismissed. The plot also seems to lose some steam towards the end, with the pacing feeling a bit off. And while the social media posts were initially amusing, they eventually became tiresome due to their sheer volume.

Final Verdict

Overall, "There is No Such Thing as a Bad Hunter" is a decent read, especially if you're a fan of the hunter/dungeon genre. The MC is likable, the world is engaging, and the translation is top-notch. However, the ML's obsessive behavior and the plot's mid-series slump might be deal-breakers for some. If you're looking for a lighthearted time-killer with a slightly problematic romance, this might be worth checking out.
