story is good

like Sam it Hard too be strong when evil whant you dead, but he gives it his all.

manga as sound

seriously, this bloody series reads just like a friggin' manga book just without the pictures!

whats next!

always enjoy this authors work and this was another good one for the bag!

I liked the skill development and growth of each character it's not just 1 overpowered character plowing through a plot armor world.

FUNtastic Adventure Continues!

I so enjoy this series so much! It's such a fun and entertaining listen. The action-packed adventure was very exciting and thrilling. I liked how the characters had been developing and dealing with great challenges.

As always, Steve Campbell delivered an absolutely brilliant performance! Definitely made my listening experience so enjoyable.

Trying to save the future

Second Chance Swordsman 4

Sam was sent back in time to prevent the Demon King from wiping out all life in the planet with an excellent pool of knowledge of exactly how things got so bad. He has worked hard to change things to give the planet a chance. However, everything that he has changed separated his new timeline from the old disastrous one. Now a criminal organization of rogue Travelers have taken over the southern seas. This didn’t happen last time.

This is a great example of a time travel litrpg! The action is too notch and the characters are very likable. I really enjoy that his knowledge of the future is getting less useful and reliable as the series goes. I think that’s a good counter to such a huge advantage and makes sense in the story.

Why not win the fight?

If you can bring your sword to someone’s neck then talk for a bit, you should have just finished the fight. It was idiotic of Sam to do nothing and then act like he was having the hardest, most
Impossible fight after that. Why did you create that ridiculous situation? Choosing to keep the fight going wasn’t dramatic or suspenseful, it was stupid and unnecessary.

There’s also only like 5 travelers who do everything. And every major bad guy has the most broken powers while everyone else is stuck with stuff like warrior or mage. They don’t have to do anything for their abilities to be insane.

Some of the other fights were nonsense. The narrator and characters would pretend they were doing impressive things when it made no sense. Like a super skilled, more experienced fighter no noticing fighter jumping straight up right in front of them. And that airborne person being a melee warrior who put themselves in the worst position but is then praised for being trained well…. The fights sounded choreographed to sound impressive(which men), but they sometimes seemed so bad as fights it just took you out of the story.
