  The story follows a very ruthless main character with the background of an assassin. It's well executed and the writing is good. I wish RR had a "World Hopping" tag, so I could find other stories like this.
  Definitely worth a read of you're into overpowered, but not all-powerful, main characters.
  Update at chapter 87: Still going strong
  Update at chapter 147: Yup, this is still going great

  A world-hopping story with inspiration from Reincarnation Paradise and The Devil's Cage ? My favorite genre now have another great novel that I can read ! For the world explored, they are created with synopsis of other work but deviated totally from them to create an original one.
  The writing is clear, I'm not an english native and it's not a masterpiece clearly but it's good and you can understand what is written

  Fun story and similar to Reincarnation paradise which i also enjoyed and i like the world-hopping and game like aspects.
  Protagonist was also an assassin and is quite op .
  There's also many chapters which is nice because i read a lot .
  I don't write much so sorry for the low quality review .

  I really enjoyed this story. However keep in mind that I'm rating it 5 stars from the perspective that it's a Translated Novel, and not a native english novel.
  You can look at Caerulex's review below to get more details about the story itself, but I would consider this one of my favourite translated novels, as the story itself and the progression is really addicting, if you can get past the awkward and stilted sentence structure.
  Although the writing isn't quite as bad as most of the translated novels on webnovel.com and stuff, it's definitely not up to the standards of the more popular stories here, let alone fully published fantasy novels.

  I can't believe how this story isn't mainstream yet! I thought I'd read some generic new story and drop it quickly just to pass a few hrs cos I'm already close to my finals , and damn !!! Picking up this novel was the wrong move . I can tell my grades r gonna drop so hard cos all I've done for the past 3 days is just read from the moment I wake up till I sleep . I literally have a final in 12 hrs but I can't stop reading . I'm in the middle of the 6th world now and if anything the quality is going up .End of the review, the rest is me ranting .
  Now that's what I hate about advanced reviews and why I usually never do them . It's because they force u to write 200 words . I'm not a writer !!! Just let me submit my review. There isn't even a word count , so I won't know when I hit 200 .
  Ps. I already posted this review once before but it got deleted cos I decided to fill the rest of the review with random letters , hopefully this time it will be fine .

  Love the mc and the setting. Sure some improvements can be made like him nearly dying every time cause that gets tiring when it happens so damn often but all in all this novel is great and I have high hopes for how it’ll continue. Damn but seriously this novel just checks so many of my boxes especially the mc cause I got tired of all those hero mcs trying to save everyone, the world, or wtv else. Know how dumb it is for someone to go to a new world then like a few days later decide to fight the empire, gods, or wtv to save it. Became sickening reading that kind of stuff especially when they talked about being guilty, doing whats right, and stuff like that. Better being guilty alive then guilty dead cause you ain’t going to feel anything dead but they mcs so they can jump into the fire say some shit then come out stronger.

  The Final Desperation follows Genji (just think of him as a John Wick esque OP assassin) after he kills a Champion of the EverRealm and is forced to become the man's replacement (or die trying).
  EverRealm is kinda like a nexus of the multiverse and is ruled by a supernatural system that sends people on quests across different worlds. EverRealm is real, and the worlds that EverRealmers travel to are real as well. It's not a video game. And the superpowers that EverRealm gives people are very real!
  The quests scale in difficulty, sending people to worlds with increasingly powerful foes, so people in EverRealm are forced to get strong or die. Most people have only 1 month of downtime between quests, and some quests can last months or more, so EverRealm people live a pretty crazy existence of constantly worldhopping to complete quests while struggling to survive. Some people get stuck on worlds permanently when the clear conditions for their quest become impossible, the new world essentially becoming their permanent world. (Honestly, maybe not a bad outcome for a lot of EverRealmers?)
  The story follows Genji as he joins EverRealm and takes on quests. What makes this so fun is that Genji is crazy. Like the mayhem of John Wick dialed up to 11. He somehow manages to escalate every world's quests by going off script in pretty ridiculous (and fun) ways. He's crazy OP to start but he is constantly improving his abilities and equipment to face stronger bosses.
  It's a great adventure if you're like me and you like strong from the start MCs. Genji is like a metaphorical tiger given wings. One of the best assassins of Earth, now given a progression system with unlimited growth potential so long as he survives his quests.
  The Final Desperation strongly reads like a translated novel (the prose needs help) but if you're used to reading translated novels, like I am, then you will be fine. And by translated, I mean translated by a person, not MTL'd. I know this is a disqualifier for s

  i believe that the story is mostly quite good as it was entertaining to see what would happen next with each world feeling quite different from the last, though i did feal that the psychic world felt quite less interesting than most of the other worlds.
  one thing that i don't understand is why Genji, near the beginning of the story at the pirate world decided that he should follow the contract even when didn't what to kill the pirates, but then is just fine with going back on a contract later with the Trivial Remains of Abomination.

  The first good story I've read in a while, was looking for a new book to read and found this. After I started I just couldn't stop and binged the all current chapters. Very engaging from the beginning, though Mc is super op from the very start. I don't even know what to classify this under, it seems to be a very unique take on the isekai genre, but as previously stated I don't realy know. Still definitely worth reading in my opinion though!

  The story is rather cringy and woody. My guess is that the target audience are teens in 13-15y range. I can't really see an adult, or someone who has read a lot of webnovels enjoying this. The MC is supposed to be this experienced assassin. He sure doesn't act like one, it's more like an excitable child jumping around.
