  I like this novel a lot. My favorite thing is the MC and his system. They are both great characters.
  The other characters are also pretty great and I can't wait to see how his relationship with his family develops.
  The pacing is good.
  I can't wait till this novel gets more chapters so that I can binge read them

  Just like the title said, this story hooked me and I was binging through it before I remembered I was supposed to be doing a review! At the point of the review we are still winding up to the big story arc, but I think it's pretty safe to say where it's going and how it's going to get there.
  Style - loved the style, the quippy dialogue between the system and the MC was a great way to inject some levity and humour into the story. The system itself can be a bit full on at the start, but as the two settle into each other that sense really faded away and it was just fun to read. Beyond that the prose is highly effective at conveying info, with a great balance between dialogue, introspection and action. The action scenes themselves were done fantastically, the authors style is such that it gives you a few concrete details to get the Mind's Eye mental picture rolling and then cuts the reader loose to visualise the battle as it plays out. Very well done!
  Story - I do know that some people have grown a bit fatigued with wish fulfillment OP protags in system novels, but though this might seem very similar at face value, it's actually fundamentally different. There are scenes when the MC is OP af, but they were just a riot to read, highly entertaining, but not the meat and potatoes of this story. The author has indicated there will be a bit more of a level playing field deeper into the story, but in the interim the thing that keeps you reading is the character of the MC himself. This all meant that the OP MC pimp slapping his way through a horde of enemies was just some A grade entertainment, and not a tired old schtick being flocked for severl hundred pages. The author has found the balance that not many others have!
  Grammar - I didn't notice anything that detracted from the story.
  Character - The cast is still quite small, but the people we have seen so far are fantastically designed and portrayed. There are some instances of people's actions seeming slightly out of characte

  F-Ranked: World Domination with the Weakest System is extremely fast paced and action packed! The MC, Ralph, is a powerful awakener masquerading as a normal 12 yr old kid. His System is also left reeling from experiencing the full extent of his power.
  Style score 5/5: It's interesting to uncover the full extent of his power after the impactful event in the first chapter that effectively subverts reader's expectations with what happens next!
  Story score 5/5: Ralph is surrounded by mystery, but we learn tidbits early on about his bloody history.
  Grammar score 5/5: This is my least important rating. A story only needs to legible to receive full marks from me!
  Character score 5/5: Ralph is an interesting character with a dynamic persona, which is to be expected when he has a split personality. One being naive and kind, Ralph. The other psychotic and maniacal, the Reaper of the Night.
  In summary, this is an excellent power fantasy that adds a twist to the system trope. Whereas we would expect the system to be the one with the reigns, in actuality Ralph constantly leaves it flabbergasted. I highly recommend this story to anyone looking for a story where the MC has been fixated on world domination from the beginning and has the tools to achieve it ♥

  Very enjoyable system story where the system interacts with the main character as if it was a character. I think that using the system as a character is a great way bringing life and uniqueness that other system stories do not have. While this isn't typically a type of story I would read, for those looking to get their fix of a system story this one is certainly enjoyable.
  For Style, the writing is very dialogue focused and written in a third person point of view. The dialogue is short and snappy. It is also a very fast pace story that is driven by character development rather than  stuffy drawn out world building.
  Story Score, From what I read the author clearl;y has a plan on where he is going to take this story. From the set up to the execution this story is great.
  Grammar score, No noticable mistakes or typos. The prose is decent and easily readable. The sentence structure is varied, but in a way that doesn't distract the reader from the plot of the novel. Some other stories get too caught up in pretty prose and that is not what you'll find here.
  Character Score, The characters all have realistic dialogue and unique voices. The main character is a bit of an underdog and someone that you want to root for. Overall, this is a good story.

  I love the characters so far and the comedy is fun and plot intriguing. I think there's lots of potential in the world and plot.
  The main weakness I think is the dialogs of Ralph. Personnally I'm a bit confused by the his characterization, is he good or amoral because this should be seen in the way he thinks of others. I mean he saves a boy and literally died for it but then he seems to lying without remorse. The other part other part of this problem is the way Ralph is thinking feels artificial and weird.
  Here's an example:
  "He did have my interests in mind and was also smart enough to maintain suspicion. My opinion of Zachy was largely reinforced by this interaction."
  People do not think about their opinion being largely reinforced by an interaction.
  This is followed by Ralph thinking, "He will be very useful." which feels disconnected because there's no reason to want the guy you want to manipulate to be suspicious of you.
  I think this can be much improved by giving Ralph more self awareness when he's been caught lying like he was by Zachy. If it doesn't change, I don't see how their friendship can really develope much. I do like the way you're trying to layer double meaning behind Ralph's words, but it's a bit too much and I think when this is done well, it should be both Zach and Ralph being able to have an actual conversation while speaking lies.
  At the end of the day though, I've been enjoying the story quite a bit so props to the author and I'm just a bit overtly critical sometimes.

  Over all I just loved this novel.
  Style 5
  The style of the writing is great. It plays with tension and uses discritption of the characters to show what they are thinking. It is great. The flow of the reading moves and dances around the language, causing ones imagination to generate great images of the story.
  Story 5
  The story is based on a rediculus premise and then takes so seriously that it is a joy to read. The character interactions really build the story up and create tension and action as needed. The story is driven by the charaters and the characters are driven by the story. The basis of the story does follow common templates of acedemy life and so forth, but becuase of the use of characters, their goals, and their interactions it remains fresh.
  Characters 5
  The characters are all unique and interesting with thier own goals, and their own styles and personalities. The MC being so conniving leads to much of the story driving it hard. The character interactions are dynamic leading to great moments of story telling. There are even foils for the MC to face, and the MC has weaknessses he needs to overcome as well.
  Grammar 5
  Solid grammar.
  Overall, I recommend this story to anyone, It is a great read.

  F Ranked: World Domination with the Weakest System is quite the interesting story, with a nice ballancing and inversion of tropes and interesting characters.
  Style: The style of this story flows well and that's the most important thing. It drives itself along with solidly-structured sentences, dialogue, and with action driven scenes. This carries the reader through the plot, without making it feel like we're being slowed down or jerked around.
  It's plot-centric and that makes for an easy read that doesn't at all leave us feeling like the author is writing to impress themselves, rather more like the author is doing their very best to instead put the reader first and make the story as easy to digest as possible--and that, in my opinion, is the the best decision an author can take.
  Grammar Score: I didn't see anything wrong here. Solid. Some stylistic choices, as always, but that's a-okay--authors have the right to do that when they feel like they should. Knowing the rules and then breaking them isn't an issue--and the author seems to know them well enough.
  Story Score: We know what we came for here. It's a systems novel! Thankfully this one makes it more interesting, while still giving us the tropes and genre expectations that we want and expect. Giving a boy with an insane ammount of potential a weak System? A self-doubting System? I love that decision. It grounds the lead and allows him to be overpowered without it seeming cheap, just by giving him that one caveat.
  Character Score: I don't want to ruin the reveal in the first couple chapters, but it and Ralph are great. Charaters aren't perfect. Not everyone gets along. People aren't paragons of good or bastions of evil. They're people and that makes them mixed bags of emotions and goals. Very well done. And they're all very funny when the story is trying to add some dry, quirky humor into the mix--which I also loved.
  Conclusion:
  F-Ranked: World Domination with the Weakest System is a neat detour from the one-dimens

  Set in another world like our own except with magic monsters, and supernatural races, The story shows our MC Ralph, awakening a power to grow stronger and achieve his dream. The author does a good job showing telling us that although Ralph has a dream to dominate the world, he is also a person with more than 2 dimensional characteristic.
  style: the author uses a lot of paragraph spacing, but other than that is really well. I wish that the author would paint the scene with descriptive words and actions, but they'll learn more. (I wish I had better advice for you other than show to set up and tell to get the point across fast. I always find reading a very good, maybe professional book always help with my style)
  grammar: reads and flows almost perfectly. Grammar is A1.
  characters: there have been a more than a few characters introduced at this point, with the main one's being Ralph and his system. The two have a really interesting dynamic, and everyone else have nice characterization*
  Overall- I think anyone who doesn't mind the style would love this
  but there's no particular reason to care for anything that's happening. I can't understand many of the characters. Maybe small background information on important events or happenings in the world that might not be to obvious. Of course I'm early into the novel, and I KNOW revising is a pain in the ass. It's a good concept with solid plot.

  F Ranked: World Domination with the Weakest System is a pretty decent story in my opinion.  It reminds me a fair bit of some of the fan-translated japanese and korean webnovels I've read in the past.  For the most part, the text makes sense, though there are a fair number of typos.  The author seems to be very good about fixing them when pointed out though, so that's a big plus right there.
  As far as the characters go, while they don't stand out as being especially unique, they aren't bad either.  I appreciate the exploration of the relationship of the main character's family.  Their part, the tension and history involved seemed well-written and interesting to me.  It definitely seems the main character's past will get explored further in the future too.
  I don't have any complaints about the plot either really.  There's a clear, overarching goal with smaller goals to complete along the way and, in the last few chapters, some (maybe) long-term antagonists show up.
  On the whole, I've been enjoying this story quite a bit.  If you the description for it makes you inclined to read it, I would reccommend reading at least the first three chapters.  For me personally, chapters one and two were my least favorite.  In other words, if you like the first couple chapters, you'll likely enjoy the rest even more!
