76/100an entertaining trainwreck of a storyContinue on AniListTHIS REVIEW IS SPOILER FREE for people who just wants to know if the manwha is worth reading without having to read this whole review then - I mean maybe sure it's entertaining for sure but it's very fast paced to the point that it becomes very confusing to follow the plot and remember all the character names it introduces. It seems to me that the story doesn't know what route it wants to follow so it kinda goes all over the place without giving the proper time for one storyline to breathe because it wants to introduce other storylines so fast. so don't expect it to be different than your average manwha because it's not much different than the others but it does have some qualities that makes it stand out than the other manwhas in the same genre. if you dont mind the over jumbled mess of a plot and just wants something to entertain yourself with then this manwha is perfect.
'The academy undercover professor' is a story about a young office worker from earth who dies in an accident and gets transported into a world of magic. he changes identities and gets stuck impersonating as an academy professor who is also an agent for a shady organisation.
the plot does seem very generic and at times you can feel that genericness from the plot, where this story shines is with the protagonist and his student interactions and him teaching conventional magic to his students. but it's such a shame that the story does not play on it's strengths but rather try all types of different things and becomes such a confusing and jumbled mess. there's like 10 different main storylines in this manwha tied up all together but it does not come together to become a single thread rather it becomes a web of mess by tying all these strings without giving them a though.
i felt very confused at to what this story wants to be? does it want to be a wholesome professor and students relationship (not romantic kinda way)? does it want to be a vigilante crime killing story? does it want to be a character driven story? or does it want to be a mystery type of story? in my view it wants to be all of them and that's the main problem with it. it introduces so much and so many characters in such a short time that it becomes very convoluted and worst of all it is very fast paced which brings me to my another problem with this series.
The pacing in this series is .....interesting to say the very least, when going through a character arc of a side character the story does not give time to the reader to understand what that character is actually going through or feel their development at all. it just speedruns the development or even backstories of that side character, a character confides in the mc? 5 panels of backstory and we're done, that's all folks no more backstory for you let's blow shit up which is such a shame because the characters in this series are so interesting and could have been so well written if not for the plot not giving 2 craps about them.
so what about the pacing in terms of story development? surely if the character arcs are overshadowed then it must be because of time given to main story right? nope, the story too just goes very incredibly fast that you will at times feel very confused as to what's going on. The story does not get time to breathe at all and the reader does not get the time to digest all the information and lore thrown in their face because it's just one story after the another jumping so fast that you have no choice but to follow along even when you are confused.
but even after so many complaints i did enjoy this series because it is enjoyable there is no doubt about that, you will definitely feel entertained after reading this trainwreck, the most enjoyable moments for me was when it was just the protagonist acting as a teacher and his interactions with his students and his colleagues because the side characters do feel right at place in this story even with little to no development to their character at all.
overall i think the main character is likeable because he's the one with the most development and some kind of actual compelling traits to him, and i think readers will be able to enjoy this even with all the flaws holding this series back. this is the perfect example of wasted potential in my opinion. i do hope in the future chapters the author just decides to stick with one route and not go all over the place and just plays to the series strenghts. that's it for my review thank you to everyone who stuck to the end of this review.
