    but he's certainly a lot more interesting than most isekai MC.
    I chalk that up to Shield Hero being one of the earlier titles of the current isekai fad. I could be wrong, but it does seem like the edgy anti-hero isekai twists starting cropping up after it.

    i haven't read any of those yet. most of the of the isekai MCs i've read were either bland as cardboard or OP as ****.

    I read some but it resolves from interesting yet depressing due to the crapsack setting to...Yeah, it's just rather sickening.

    Strangely enough, most start with the hero being screwed over at the tail end of his journey and by either his own opness or an overlooked feature he never realized existed, he's thrusted back in time to the very beginning.

    Mileage will most definitely vary on his approach with knowledge the people around him the first time are actual scumbags.

    Not from what I've watched from the anime and read from the novels. His characterization is more or less consistent.

    I've only read the manga, so I'm clueless of his personality, novel-wise.

    There is another good reason as to why he can be a bit of a Dick outside of ptsd, and it's the same reason as to why he has essentially become asexual as well. Wont find out until a certain, (EXTREMELY ANNOYING) party member of his dies, and she hasn't joined the party yet in either manga or anime, so I'll leave it at that. But there is a reason, and it was hinted at the beginning.

    Critics who treat adult as a term of approval, instead of as a merely descriptive term, cannot be adult themselves. To be concerned about being grown up, to admire the grown up because it is grown up, to blush at the suspicion of being childish; these things are the marks of childhood and adolescence.

    Is Kiss Players the worst thing to ever come out of the Transformers franchise? I think it might be.

    Considering it has Starscream take over a cyborg schoolgirl in the bathroom and then leave without pulling up his/her panties among other things... Probably.

    So, this is the infamous manga featuring a body-swapped Loli-Starscream. Why, Japan? Just WHY? Turning Lovecraftian horrors into sexy anime girls I can understand, but this is a step too far.
