## My Thoughts on Peerless Genius System "Peerless Genius System" promised a power fantasy with a unique twist, and while it had moments that hooked me, the overall experience left me feeling underwhelmed. It's a web novel that starts strong but stumbles significantly as it progresses. ### First Impressions Initially, I was drawn in by the premise of an average salaryman gaining a system that allows him to acquire skills by generating awe, anger, or fear in others. The early chapters were enjoyable, with the protagonist using his newfound abilities to stand up for himself and punish wrongdoers. The face-slapping moments were satisfying, and I found myself invested in his journey from zero to hero. ### What Works Well The system itself is a fun concept, and seeing the protagonist acquire skills like "Constitution of the Mercenary King" and "Dragon Subduing Palm" was entertaining. I also appreciated the initial focus on using the system to overcome personal challenges and fight injustice. The action scenes were generally well-written, and the protagonist's ruthlessness, without being outright evil, was a refreshing change of pace. Some readers also appreciated the beginning and middle portions of the novel, with the MC portrayed differently than other novels, as he does not depend on the system and is not a pervert. ### Areas of Concern However, my enjoyment quickly waned as the story progressed. The system, which was the main draw for me, gradually faded into the background. The protagonist often "forgot" about it, even in situations where it could have been incredibly useful. This underutilization of the core concept was a major disappointment. I also found the character development lacking, with many characters acting illogically and serving only as fodder for the protagonist's power trips. ### ⚠️ Spoiler Warning Several reviewers have pointed out significant issues with the later parts of the story, including instances of extreme nationalism and racism. I've also seen concerns raised about a particular plotline involving the protagonist and a female lead, which some found disturbing and poorly handled. ### Final Verdict Ultimately, "Peerless Genius System" is a mixed bag. While the initial premise and face-slapping moments are entertaining, the underutilized system, weak character development, and problematic later plotlines dragged down my overall enjoyment. I can only give it a **2.5/5**. It might be worth a read if you're looking for a quick and easy power fantasy, but be prepared for a bumpy ride.
