Be that as it may, I like a good power fantasy story with an intelligent and ethical hero. I like Doctor Stone and The Culture. I don’t like Overlord, because after the first season, which was quite fun, they moved the perspective away from our overpowered and quite ethical hero, Ainz. I like Kamen Rider Zi-O, which has an OP protagonist and plays with themes of good and evil, tyranny and justice, very artfully. And HPMOR, I read and enjoyed before I even knew of all of those. I liked how Harry reforms a Nazi and I like how he thinks Azkaban is shit.
HPMOR isn’t… good… but it’s exactly the specific kind of nonsense that most strongly appeals to My tastes, and it’s a damn sight better than the originals by most any measure.
Still, the best kid genius story remains A Series of Unfortunate Events.
