Chinese slice-of-life novel. You'll like this novel if you like Japanese mangas/light novel titles beginning with 'Living a Carefree Life.' The type of novel in which the protagonist has zero ambition, or drive - just exists, frolicking around, going on joyous adventures with his friends. Baking cookies, and savouring the sweet taste of rainbow cake. And of course, let's not forget swooning around cute little animals either!

The novel is great. Unfortunately it has been on Hiatus for past 1 month. Writer took a leave for a day and has been missing since. I wish Webnovel would stop recommending novels that are on hiatus or abandoned. Even for trial reads.

I mean, it's not a bad novel, certainly. Kind of fluffy and casual, but there's nothing wrong with that, and the pet is indeed quite cute. Just, kind of slow, not very long, and not especially interesting. Also, just in case you're like me and it's a turn off, the combat is SUPER pokemon. MC is literally just a cheerleeder shouting "Dodge that thing they just said and use your only combat skill!" and whatnot.

While I do like the story..it's feels like it was made for kids..the time spent describing the event that happen in the Mac's school is way more than the dedication the time actually spent on improving the story development wise..i feel like whatever happened since Chapter 1-69 has no bearing on the story and it's something that can just be said in passing. I have only read up until this point but don't really feel the excited to continue.While it's sometimes exciting, you are immediately doused with water after 2 or 3 chapters

This is one of many Pokemon-esque series where an MC randomly transmigrates to a parallel world and has OP pet-identifying abilities for no reason other than the author said so.

The MC is an adult who transmigrated into a teenager's body in a world similar to his, but they have magical pets and monsters.  The transmigration adds nothing to the story, and the MC fits in as easily as if he spent his whole life there.  He doesn't have any incongruencies to struggle through, so the transmigration is a pointless feature that could have been left out altogether.  It doesn't contribute to the plot at all.

The MC is a mature, intelligent, hard-worker.  He hasn't shown any character flaws so far, and he hasn't had any character or personality development in the free chapters.  It is nice that he has a family, even though no one is shown to have any depth to their character designs either.  Weirdly enough, although the MC claims to have no interest in beauty, the writer undermines this by giving him a pet that will eventually evolve into one called "Limitless Beauty" and eventually "God of Beauty."

The MC has an OP ability and an OP teacher and an OP resource and etc. from the very beginning.  It looks like he's going to become overwhelmingly OP quickly.

The pets train and evolve like pokemon as they grow stronger.  Even their attacks have the same names as those used in pokemon.  I love monster evolution, so it's fine with me.  There are a limit to how many pets a person can have, so each one is precious.

HOWEVER, these pets are referred to as "it" rather than he/she, even when the gender is known.  Furthermore, the translation team eventually stops from referring to the lowest ranking pets as "servants" and calls them "slaves," which has a completely different connotation in English.  There are also many other odd nuances that don't work well in English and distract readers from the narrative.

The action isn't vivid and lacks details, so it doesn't give me any adrenaline rush.  It's just not exciting.  That said, the fast pace of the writing can keep it going for awhile.  Unfortunately, the writing quality just isn't enough to stand up for it.  Where's the conflict the MC is struggling with?  Oh, there isn't one.  How did the development and culture in this place differ from our world?  What about the technology?  Oh, it's all the same.  Are there people capable of taking on the MC in the future?  No, it doesn't look that way.

This series is interesting and would have potential if it were reworked with a focus on character depth and development with world-building.  At the level of the free chapters, though, I only see it as being good for a free casual read.

Really good story without a lot of the toxic characters that tend to show up in this genre. Like others mention it has plenty of room for a sequel, however the story is wrapped up nicely at the end and is worth the read.
