Talk:World of 2138/@comment-139.99.121.146-20180915151459

to the Anon that answers. you have my thanks.

while I don't agree with your point number 1, I'll leave it without nitpicking because there maybe others that can be content with those.

your point number 2+3+4 though, is correct, consumerism and endless cycle of debt is what you call modern day slavery, you have endless desire that you can't fulfill but it drives you to work like a slave and be a good mindless customer at the same time. That already happened to our current world, so 2138 SS is unnecessary and it looks to me that the author only wants to add extra edginess to the MC but failing to notice that it came with the cost of shaking the suspension of disbelief on the original narrative before this SS was released (the reason why I don't agree with your point number 1 but I won't divulge)

2138 SS attempt to give MC extra edge is similar to how netflix changed Yagami Light's premise and made Light's mother a murder victim so Light can took revenge and start his to the path of mass murder.

The result? angsty and edgier Kira... To sums it up, I don't like edgier Satoru, I'm trying to find reason to write off this 2138 SS in my head without affecting me enjoying Overlord, but it seems I found another reason to drop this series, that is its toxic fanbase. (I don't mean you ofc)
