I See One Second Into The Future: Loner In The Apocalypse is a story about about Kairos, someone who can see one second into the future. He uses this ability in order to survive a sudden apocalyptic event, where the sun is deadly, and monsters appear.Novel had at interesting design, and the main character had a interesting ability, however there's too many things that cause you to go "that just doesn't make sense".Writing quality is pretty good. It's readable, no obvious grammatical errors or mistakes. Nothing to write home about either. (4/5 stars)Onto the story development. Like I said previously, this novel had a interesting premise, where the sun can kill you, while it creates various monsters. However, there is a downright ridiculous amount of plot holes. I'll just make a quick list.- The words "loner in the apocalypse" are in the title. This is the opposite of what happens, the main character immediately makes a party with people who he doesn't trust. Later on, he accepted someone else into the party that he himself admitted that if the guy didn't have a certain weakness, he would try to kill them all. - The main character doesn't trust his party, so he doesn't upgrade his stats to show of his strength. A few chapters after stating this, he immediately fights ten+ monsters all on his own. (They are more powerful than humans)- Main character stocks up on stat points for no reason. You cannot add stat points while in combat as it would disrupt your attention. This happens over and over. He decided to attack a group of bandits with average-ish stats (2 - 4 points in each stat) while having 20+ points that aren't allocated. - Main character fights some random chick with red hair that has a katana. After making her surrender, the main character asks for her katana. She gets a new weapon before giving it to them. Main character for some reason accepts this stupid arrangement. Then, the main character, despite literally being able to see the future, lets her take one of his companions hostage. Theres more, but I can't be asked to write about this completely illogical story. (1/5 stars)Character design. It's meh. Side characters are rather useless, not sure why the main character decided to take them in. After all, part of the title is "loner in the apocalypse". Aside from that, the main character is exceedingly stupid. Nothing he does makes sense. He accepts people he doesn't trust into his group, including people who have every reason to kill him. He decides to hide his strength, before choosing to randomly show it off a few chapters later, etc. (2/5 stars)World background is a solid 3/5. I have only read eighteen chapters so I can't say a whole lot. There isn't a terrible amount of world-building, but the amount of content before the apocalypse was rather lackluster. Not much to say here. (3/5 stars)Overall, I feel like the novel would've been much better if the author went through his novel for the ridiculous amount of plot holes. I feel like the author didn't really have a plan. I give this novel 3 out of 5 stars.
