Not as good as Dream but better than the Water Bandits and Three Kingdoms.

Anyone want to recommend a Journey to the West translation? Is it worth reading unabridged?

Rean is Sun Wukong.
OP as hell, and constantly pulls new abilities out of his ass which are borderline deus ex machina. Also the entire world, including Lao-Tze, the Jade Emperor and some random ass dragon gods job to him. It is ok tho because he is a funny character.
Note: I have not played Trails of Cold Steel
