Description

Three hundred years ago multiple meteors broke into earth's atmosphere and landed in various places. The meteors change the world. By releasing strange substances into the earth, air, and water the planet started to change. It was not until ten years later that the first batch of superhumans was born. They had abilities that could not be explained. Superspeed. Superstrength. Magic. The superhumans showed the world that all of it was possible. They called the abilities EXO and the people who wielded such an ability, EXO users.

They quickly found out that not every EXO was the same. One EXO user had one EXO ability and what that ability was could be categorized into one of three types. Offensive, Defensive or Support.

The government was the first to act after five years. Every EXO user must be subjected to whole new laws and they must get their abilities under control. Specialized schools were built all across the world that were made to train them. Under the pretense of saying it was to develop their abilities, the government was actually building an army. Humans were not the only ones to change…

the chapters here are weirdly short, but so the story is exceptional. some similarity to the irregular at magic high school series, but without the stillted japanese awkwardness.

This is a really fun story. Modern feels with a fantasy setting.
Very few typos, but a great read!

Probably not qualified to review but the story is starting off pretty well. Looking forward for more chapters and to see how it goes.
Some criticism would be how grammar can be improved abit and some parts can be confusing as well as how some probably antagonistic characters seem like those arrogant young master types from Wuxias.
Keep up the good work!

Overall great story Blue! The main issue is that the main characters need further elaboration and the story starts off pretty slow. But most story's do this so I believe everything will turn out fine. Really hope it turns out great!

Quite a good story the author has going but it is slightly hard to do an advanced review because there really has not been too much going on. But so far the only thing that could possibly count as a negative is I personally think the stories pace could start being picked up a slight bit. But overall a quite good story.

Is that just me? From the characthers to the plot to the very setting. I just feel like I've seen it all before. According to the other reviews, it apparently rips off some other series, but I've never seen that one either.
Could it be... no, it couldn't be, right? Is this all just some very cliche stuff mashed together? Well, I think it might just be. Sword MC with high potential, possessing some lame power that's somehow so incredible in the lore. Yeah... pretty much just one big trope. If only I could enjoy the style. 4/5 from me.

The stories a blatant copy of the anime in the title. With the same sifting, power style and character group. The main character also joins the disciplinary comitee. The only difference is the lack of a pseudo romance between the main character and half sister (yet)
Apart from the blatant plagarism its well written and enjoyable to read.

Now complex stories are all nice and good but there is a trap in which this story has fallen. That is the complexity is being layered on with more story elements however there are few resolutions. By the end of the second volume the main character has joined a club and fought one major battle. The character is portrayed as very perceptive and mature but does not hold too his own wariness and makes compromises with no benefits with known antagonizes. There is a lot of content for the story but the characters do not make decisions congruent for their architypes and charters are forced to make decisions for the sake of story progression. The main character wants to be in the special forces aka stealth and intelligence operations and yet is being played like a bad violin. While a good start this story can probable be a first draft. In a complex story style, the writer needs a clear plan so that while complex it is not a twisted ball of yarn. Also, this story is written like an anime, while the style is fine watching and reading are very different mediums so it is necessary to be careful when writing to add visual and visceral language so that the environment and the characters are fully portrayed.
The biggest things I can say now is the character architypes need to be congruent with their decisions and perception. The reader development needs to be a focus so that the readers know if and what clues need to be looked out for. The pacing needs to be redone so that events are better spaced.
When writing focus on one story ark at a time while foreshadowing events for future arks, the use of alternate POVs and environmental references can be utilized to do this. This makes the world complex while not having the story become convoluted. Something complex like this needs to be planned out and not just layered. Having the reader have see two faces of the main character can give a mysterious and complex feeling while keeping the plot the same.

''Oh wow, a story similiar to Mahouka Koukou no Rettousei! This is going to be good!''
Or not.
We begin our story following our mc Nick Wilson as he enters school in his search of a way to join the special forces. Brought forth by a deal with his estranged father, so his paralytic mother can be given the treatment needed for her to walk again.
A noble goal to kick off our story.
Sadly this goal mostly takes a backseat as our mc passively flows through the story and having some brief, but unsatisfying encounters with other characters.
The little exposition we get is pretty intriguing, but there's barely any of it in the first volume.
Neither do we get anything close to proper conflict. In fact, barely anything happens in the first volume.
With the end of the first volume and the beginning of the second things are finally beginning to pick up steam. Sadly that petered out pretty quick.
What we do get is a bunch of unresolved sub plots and a build up of our mc's mysterious power; that turns out to be hilariously tame.
There is a hint of some grand plot building up in the background, but with the mc's passive personality I'm going to be extremely surprised if he does anything to try resolve it.
As to the side characters, I can barely remember them. They're just kinda there. The only ones getting a semblance of character development is Freya and Matthew, which is still barely anything.
Flesh out your first volume, resolve your side plots, focus more on your side characters and slow down the speed of the story.
I do genuinely believe this story can turn out great, but as of now; it is nowhere near it.

Enjoy the story for a bunch of chapters, but stopped reading around Black Crown First Year (III) pt 27.
It got weird.
He was going to get married and his Mom that's in a wheelchair was being brainwashed.
