   It's all about death and resurrection. In the first book, I died countless times. The protagonist initially thought he was dreaming, or maybe it was a recurring dream, but later realized he could resurrect infinitely. There's also a part where his mother dies, and he keeps attempting suicide to save her, but his save file gets stuck after her death—it's incredibly despairing. I personally lost interest after that (please don't criticize!). The second one is my favorite. The most despairing thing is being constantly killed by your "wife" [smirk]. The protagonist is ambitious, decisive, and doesn't hesitate at all. He gets straight to the point, and his overall control is fantastic.

    If you've ever fantasized about restarting your life, this book is your "time loop"! The protagonist is trapped in a cycle of reincarnation on the eve of his college entrance exam, experiencing life's many flavors a thousand times: a war correspondent facing gunfire, a scientist tackling the challenges of nuclear fusion, and even a soldier rewriting the outcome of a war. Each rebirth is a gamble with fate—the regret of his mother's early death, the fleeting moment of his first love, and the human choices made by Kerner on the battlefield—all these fragments of memory piece together a truth that transcends reincarnation. Even more ingenious is that the heroine's pencil sharpener's glance back becomes the anchor point of the cycle; the tacit understanding accumulated through thousands of reincarnations makes restrained love more poignant than any vow of eternal love. When cutting-edge technologies like room-temperature superconductivity and Hall thrusters collide with the reincarnation setting, you will see how an ordinary person breaks the shackles of time through a "trial and error life," blossoming with a light that transcends reincarnation amidst despair!
