When Ethan dies in a monster attack on Boston, of all places, a strange voice told him he’d be useful. When he awakens next, he finds himself in a strange world, the only purpose of which being to host magical academies. Enrolled in the illustrious Gale House dedicated to teaching the magical arts, he’ll need to learn how his own class, System Scribe, works if he wants a shot at filling his new role. Ethan will need to forge his own system if he wants to succeed, building it from the ground up. He’ll use elements of other classes and systems as the basis of his own, creating spells and abilities to help him advance. But the underlying issues with the Academy World might go deeper than he expects. Join Ethan as he creates his own system, crafts spells, and fixes what’s ‌wrong with the local system all while juggling classes, friends, and a ghost. What to expect: -Spellcrafting. Lots of spellcrafting -Academy setting without bullies (the purpose of the academy is for everyone to become useful to the system, not for everyone to murder each other) -Low/No fighting -Side-characters with interesting classes/systems -Takes place in the Newt and Demon universe Current Schedule is Monday-Friday

    Just read this from chapters 1-37. It’s engaging and interesting, with good worldbuilding.  The character is a little obsessed with progression, but that fits the environment. The supporting characters are interesting and fun, though each seems like someone’s incredibly distinct ttrpg character.
    I’m happy to keep reading and interested to find out more, and am hoping the MC develops more of a personal voice and personality, especially in dialogue. So far he’s affable and nice, smart and driven. But otherwise sort of distant. Maybe once he’s allowed to deal with his losses and gets beyond survival mode we’ll see more of him?

    This is a fairly nice school slice of life with the potential for a great magic system. Once the main character builds it of course...laughing.
    Characters are good, characterization decent, but it is very slice of life so very very early days to say it is more than a cozy read.
    Very easy read, and hits the ground running.
    I'll rewrite this later at the end of book one which the Author says covers to the end of the first semester.

    So this is a good story. Not great, but good. It is worth a read. My problem with this is
    1. there is no point in having MC come from earth. Like he comes from earth and it is never mention about him missing earth, him really looking into things, etc. Just that he is there.
    2. They do some NDA thing but it appears this is largely meaningless. Like before he sign a NDA thing the group couldn't even tell him the name of the group. But a few chapters later everyone openly talks about it.
    Like the author puts limits or things in, and then just doesn't use them. If you can overlook that, then it is a good story.

    Tldr: There is a lack of coherence and care put into what is written. Maybe not to the novel itself and the idea of it, but to the actual, written version it definitely seems like it in the current written version.
    Between the inconsistencies and the incoherence that's been happening in the novel plus just outright coming out with new things out of nowhere (like the guy with muscles that clearly didn't want to enroll into classes, is now part of the exact same ones the mc enrolled, including the one that had the world leader or whatever it was the shady guy in the administration building). It's just not something I can put myself to read through.
    Otherwise, this would've been an awesome reading experience, and why I even gave it a shot despite the very few chapters. But when I read something, there are just 2 things that are pivotal no matter whatever it is that I am reading, whether it's a dodgy comedic fanfic or a deep book about different fantasy topics, or even a history book. Those two things are cohesion and coherence. They are the cornerstone of literature (at least from my perspective), because if you as an author don't respect the rules and things you have imposed previously or your ideas and whatever you have written aren't connected, why should should someone respect your literature.
    Besides that, characters are okay, if not good. And we were introduced to a wide variety of different races as well as a very intricate and thought out system (not to confuse with System). Also the power system and actual System (or Systems if you'd like) are actually very interesting and have enjoyed the novels that bring similar iterations of the one used here.
