I couldn't stand this one. The earth references are just plain bad. What kind of person, who is trying to keep their origin a secret, would make so many references? They feel bulky, unfunny, and make me feel the characters are idiots. I threw my hands up and said "Thats it! No more!" when the female protagonist made a scooby-doo, then a Labyrinth reference.

Emo Will is Emo. Basically... "I know desians are a bunch of Nazi wannabes and they want to kill me, and everyone I care for, and my worlds fucked if I fail but "I don't wanna be a Murder". The main character becomes a Emo whiner = FAIL.

I liked this one for the most part. Will was pretty well defined as being a coward, and learning how to cope with being forced into combat played a big role in his character development. However, the death of Ellie wasn't really necessary, and the ending was, for me, a massive wall-banger: Peggy Sue!Yggdrasil was actually Good!Yggdrasil all along, and he went back to Earth just so he could build an Otherworldly Gate for Will and the Aselians to visit each other. In fact, it turns out that the entire plot was a Stable Time Loop resolving itself, meaning all of the problems caused by and inflicted on Will and Ellie happened, essentially, for no reason at all. The one good thing about the ending is that it is all the Wonder Chef's fault given his absolute power over transit between realities, and he is very, very much portrayed as being A) bored/insane and/or B) a force of nature like the Summon Spirits, and therefore concerned primarily with keeping balance and only peripherally, if at all, with fairness.
