never read/watched it, is it good, mid, or shit?
being a bit of a bookworm, i've read the whole novel (all 5 volumes, 48 books and 365 chapters 💀). it's probably my favorite book of all time, but i will say it can be pretty hard to read.
in addition to its length, it has multiple subplots, a very slow pace, and abt quarter of it is just historical and philosophical tangents with no connection to the actual plot (lol). personally i don't mind all that, but i can see why others would.
