This is an incredibly delightful and lighthearted read! I appreciate how the main character (MC) exhibits both street smarts and intellectual prowess, yet struggles with interpersonal skills. The romantic development in the story unfolds gradually, which I find refreshing. The diverse cast of characters is well-rounded and each fits seamlessly without any annoying stereotypes. The translation from Shanghai Fantasy is top-notch as well!
I found myself bored and decided to read through the reviews for this novel, which prompted me to pen my own thoughts since many of the existing ones don't resonate with me. Here's a summary of my perspective:
Firstly, this is a slice-of-life novel, with comedy as a significant element, rather than focusing on fantasy or harem themes. The pacing is deliberately slow, so if you prefer fast-paced action, give it a chance, but be aware of its nature.
Secondly, some readers complain about uninteresting side characters, but I beg to differ. The author takes care to develop even minor characters who may reappear later in the story, contributing to the narrative's progression. Just because a character doesn't have a major role doesn't mean they're insignificant.
A common criticism is that the protagonist is portrayed as a beta male or herbivore, but I strongly disagree. The main character, despite his youthful appearance, is actually an adult in his late twenties or thirties. His interactions with the young girls in his group are more familial than romantic, and he respects their autonomy. Additionally, he occasionally seeks companionship outside his group but doesn't let it consume him.
The claim that he's passive in pursuing love is also incorrect. He actively aims for a romantic relationship, particularly with the high elf Aze, and even goes to great lengths to help her achieve her goal of marrying a god.
The character's reluctance to kill initially is understandable, given his civilian background, but he eventually becomes more assertive when protecting those he cares about. As his strength grows, so does his confidence.
Lastly, while the character's immense power can be perceived as overpowered, it's essential to remember that it serves to highlight the slice-of-life aspects of the story. The humor arises from the contrast between his power and the challenges he faces in a more realistic world. If you prefer stories without such extreme主角光环, this might not be your ideal choice.
In conclusion, this novel offers a different kind of experience, with a focus on character development and humor, rather than action and power struggles. If you appreciate a slower pace and well-rounded characters, it's worth giving it a try, despite the occasional criticisms.
Married? can someone pls summarize most sh*t about it to me I'm still in the kamila's arc.
is this finished?
Being an dummy myself, is this a Read or don't Read summary? I got meh, meh, meh from it and an author dodging phones.
You lie very badly, especially when anyone can go and see the two works and compare, I had already read almost 1000 chapters of King of F*ck about 2 years ago, I'm currently on chapter 212 of this work, and despite having noticed some very similar, like for example this monkey liquor I have already seen somewhere, and some other similar situations from other works, I can say that this work is not a blatant copy of the other, it really has some similar situations with at least 5 or 6 works, but still about 60 to 70% of it is original, so stop making up lies that can be easily refuted
The comedy is too good
Reviews are overwhelmingly positive, theres romance, there harem, ima read
The only flaw of this kind of novel that hasn't been fixed by those authors is the authors always stuffed their "Blessings" to the MCs without thinking clearly so the MCs couldn't even diggest them properly. Some of the "Blessings" even became the title of a chapter but they disappeared without a trace.
It’s an intriguing story with well written characters. I highly recommend it.
good novel with compelling characters at least for the first 20 chapters. lets hope it conzinues
Good story!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
