So, like, I literally just finished reading *The Hero Who Shouldn’t Exist* and I need to scream about it for a sec. 😱 Okay, so first of all, the title? total edgy boy energy, but in a way that I was kinda here for? I found the link and was like, "Okay, let's see if this is another basic hero story," but honestly, it’s giving *villain origin story* and I am obsessed.

From the first few chapters, the vibes were already super heavy. Imagine being the actual hero, right? Like, you’re the chosen one or whatever, and then suddenly—poof—you’re just *erased*. Replaced. And nobody remembers you! 😭 That part actually made me so mad for him. The author, Anime_Art142 (cool name btw), really nailed that feeling of being completely alone and betrayed by the whole world. It wasn't just "oh, I'm sad," it was like pure, raw rage. The MC isn't trying to win friendship points; he’s out for blood, and honestly? valid.

The middle part of the novel is where it gets crazy. The power system is described as "forbidden" and "twisted," and yeah, it’s definitely not your typical "power of friendship" sparkles. He gets stronger by embracing the darkness, and watching him basically tear down the false prophecy was so satisfying. There were moments where I was like, "Wait, is he going too far?" because he does some questionable stuff, but then I remembered how they did him dirty in Chapter 1 and I was back on his side. Slay, king. 🔥

The pacing was pretty solid too. It didn't feel like it was dragging, probably because he was always plotting something or fighting some terrifying monster. The "False Crowns and Hollow Cheers" chapter? Chills. It really showed how fake everyone else was compared to him.

Okay, and the ending! 💀 I won't spoil the exact deets cause you have to read it, but getting to the final chapters (Chapter 110-112 area) was a rollercoaster. "Defiance" was such a hype chapter title. The way everything wrapped up felt like... it wasn't a happy ending with rainbows, but it was the *right* ending for him. He didn't save the world the normal way; he basically broke it to fix it on his own terms. "Write his own legend in blood" was not a joke, you guys.

Overall, if you're tired of goody-two-shoes MCs who forgive everyone, read this. It’s dark, it’s moody, and the MC is basically the definition of "I will burn this place to the ground." 10/10 would stress-read again. ✨🖤

So, rate 4.7 out of 5 its worth to read about it..
