The Legendary Mechanic

Han Xiao was a veteran player of the game Galaxy, and he died unexpectedly in the middle of a leveling request. He is transmitted to the game world ten years earlier and becomes an NPC with a player's past. That hook is a clever inversion of the usual isekai, and the series makes the most of the irony of an insider stuck inside the system.The strength is the system logic. Game mechanics are clear and used cleverly, and the mecha and sci-fi elements give the world a distinct look. Full colour makes the setting lively, and Han's knowledge drives the plot forward.The weaknesses are clear. The run is long, and it covers many arcs that can feel repetitive. Isekai and NPC tropes are familiar, and readers who dislike game-world logic may find it heavy.Recommended for game-world fans who enjoy clever mechanics and sci-fi flair. Expect a long, system-heavy ride.
