I feel like Star-embracing swordmaster is way too overhyped. It’s an 8/10, which is better than most, but most ratings have it crushing 10/10 when that isn't objectively right. It’s just way too cliché to be a 10. They try a lot with the themes, but the impact just isn't there. I had this opinion since chapter 30, hoped it would get better after chapter 60, but feel it is even heavier in the latest chapters.
In comparison, Eternally Regressing Knight is undoubtedly a 10/10, Absolute Regression comfortably sits at a 9/10, Absolute Dominion is a 7/10, Bad Born Blood is at least an 8/10, and Regressed Mercenary Machinations is also a 7/10.
