Hero i quit a long time anime

But you wont find these flaws in this manhua. The MC is someone who got power 10 years + before the series started ,when he was still a child.

Spoiler (mouse over to view)

His childhood was already harsh yet a happy one. But after he lost his parents he fell down in spiral of delusion and was then tricked by a demon without knowing the cost his power had

Spoiler (mouse over to view)

they end up falling in love (he and the demon), but the cost is either his or his loved ones life ,but he never knows until her death

. Because of this and the mayhem around the world he was sometimes used and ruthlessly mowed down anything he perceived as an enemy/threat. After he got older he(zero) ended up as a symbol that constantly reminded him the atrocities he'd done , so he quits that identity.

It started as a parody to the many other unreasonable Asian "hero" franchises, different mythologies. And the true plot was dark, but you could still ignore it and focus on the comedy/action.

Edit: The MC si way more moralist now (I guess it was to be expected from a popular Chinese series) and the sword spirits+Anya fill 1/5 of the chapters for no reason at all (there use to be echi scenes here and there. but fillers have gone up), I mean it's easy to skip a chapter talking about a mecha, but it's frustrating to have that plus the batte take a whole chapter for it to blow up. And deaths are becoming rarer (in the last 2 arks he's basically spared or saved everyone).

The thing I most liked about it was that there was no "Status Quo Is God". Even the most absurd actions were permanent (death,a character becoming rich/poor, giving superhuman intelligence to his dog...).

Now it's your generic chinese bs*.

The worst part of this manga is how unoriginal it is. There are thousands of similar or near-identical style plots with the same character archetypes and types of gags strewn out between the story. I see the appeal of these types of stories, but just find something else where the characters are tolerable.

True score: ~3.7
De facto score: 0 because it's dreadfully unoriginal. Plagiarism is an automatic failing grade

Don’t just go off these few reviews. Check other sources as well. I really enjoy this cause I’m a big fan of these type of stories. It doesn’t hurt to read more than 15 chapters to see what it’s like.

Wish i had read the comments... 🙁

Daemonaux says it all. Plus the strongest man on earth afraid of a punch from his sister, he's denies being Zero but enters the hero BS as a newby and above all, at least the author should give some ridiculous excuse of why he's so strong and was able to find all the weak points of all monsters and such, saying that he was a chuninbyo is the furthest from an explanation there is.
Dropped after 3 chapters, I usually try giving the manga 20-30 ch. before dropping it but this is just too bad and a manga that can't even hook you at the start is pretty much worthless imo.

Really bad... the humor is really forced and cringey. Characters are annoying and obnoxious. MC is a complete idiot(sells high ranking items for few hundred bucks). Art isn't that good either. There really isn't a single redeeming quality on this manhua. Also it gives the feeling of trying to imitate OPM too much and failing miserably.

It's not great. It's hard to even call it good, to be honest. The art isn't great, the story is straight up stolen from OPM, and the characters are mediocre at best and annoying at worst.

Not Recommended

Atrocious pacing, 13 minutes runtime is way too short.
Also, the comedy in the anime is not funny at all. Although they are cringe-worthy. Many illogical things happen, such as characters pop out of nowhere, new power-ups gets introduced without explanation, plot armours, overall a disastrous anime.

Anime introduces someone, makes them out to be the bad guy but beats him in the next episode itself. Character development is poor. Characters change sides way too easily.

Everyone except the main character does not matter. No one else is questioning the OPness of the main character, they just accept it.
Also, the main antagonist, in the end, is ... contradicting himself way too hard and it made me cringe

Skip this one, even if you like power fantasy anime. Just watch 'The daily life of immortal king', another better Chinese power fantasy anime.

Story: I can say that this story so far is very basic. Where the anime is right now there isn't really too much going on that is very captivating. Which is unfortunate as the story does get a lot better the longer you read, and the more arcs go past. Especially the start of the anime, the story was very all over the place, with it being hard to get into at first.

Art: Overall the art isn't anything special. Luckily it isn't bad at all, but that doesn't mean it lacks moments where you know that with better animation the whole anime would be better. ... However, the last fight scene really showed where they put all their work into as compared to all the other fights and scenes that had been shown thus far, it was far and away above the rest. And considering the situation, I am happy that is the case.

Sound: There isn't really anything special about the sound choices of this anime, it is all pretty standard and nothing will surprise you but it does do its job and doesn't take anything away from the anime, while also not adding anything of much value, past the mere basics.

Character: Some of the characters have a lot of personalities and unlike the normal emotionless MC, Lin Jie isn't like them, showing his emotions. The same with the side characters, they all have decent personalities but there isn't really any backstory, except for a few characters, but even that isn't fleshed out much, leaving them mostly bare bones.

Enjoyment: If you like overpowered main character then you will love this anime. Lin Jie is as overpowered as they come, being the hero that appeared and was the strongest 5 years ago he is still the same person now, expect he is a lot stronger. This isn't some complex anime with a convoluted story that will draw you in but when portraying an overpowered main character it does a very good job of making it fun to watch. If that isn't the kind of anime you like I would avoid this as it contains nearly all these stereotypes, even though it does it well.

Overall: I gave this anime overall a 7 as while most of it was mediocre, or above average, the genre and main character really boosted this as a whole and made it much more enjoyable to watch than one might think. This is coupled with the fact that I did read the manhua way before the anime was announced so I might hold some bias just because I am seeing scenes that I wished to see animated finally.

Honestly, 12 episodes for this series is too low. In both the manhua and the novel, this is basically just the introduction, setting up a lot of the characters and how they interact. If you're here for an actual complete story, I recommend you read the entire thing instead of watching this. There's just too little runtime in this adaptation to really get things going.

As for the animation, I can't praise it enough. Especially during the fighting scenes, this show really delivers and keeps you glued to the screen. The music and sound design really adds well to this.

The characters themselves are fairly stereotypical, but ... their powers and personalities are very broad and make for great chemistry, and opens up a lot of room for good jokes, though these are very limited to the anime adaptation.

I think this show is best enjoyed after reading the source material, because it's just not enough to be enjoyable on its own in the earlier parts of the story. If multiple story arcs are getting adaptations it may be interesting enough to watch standalone, but for now I wouldn't recommend it.
