Character development in the series shows mixed results, with some characters, like Yuusuke, experiencing notable growth that enhances the enjoyment of the story. However, there are criticisms regarding the inconsistency of character arcs, particularly in volume 3, where previously established development seems to be disregarded, leading to unexpected and less favorable decisions. Overall, while there are decent moments of character development, they often lack memorability and coherence across volumes.
“However, I feel that overall it was still very enjoyable and Yuusuke's character development really shone through, which was nice to see.”
“He's not much different from the MC from G Senjou no Maou really, but in a world like this, I didn't especially have any issues with him and he too has a nice character development.”
“While it has some decent character development and good character moments, none of them are especially memorable.”
“At the start of vol.3, all of his character development from vol.2 just disappears, and in vol.3 he makes a few decisions you definitely do not expect from him, not in a good way.”
“After all the character development in vol.2, the story decides to just ignore it?”
“At the start of vol.3, all of his character development from vol.2 just disappears, and in vol.3 he makes a few decisions you definitely do not expect from him, not in a good way.”
