    The first book is about a character who transmigrates to the world of Jujutsu Kaisen. Why do I say he's highly intelligent? Because I didn't even realize he faked his death later on—or rather, he had planned his resurrection beforehand, it was all interconnected. Then the second book really felt like my intelligence was completely crushed. It's about an undercover agent whose current situation is being broadcast live, and he's reminiscing about his past experiences. Even though it's a live broadcast of his past coming back, I still feel like he's doing things he already foresaw. Many things in it really surprised me, or made me realize I hadn't expected anything.
