The story and world building for this story was great. But like everyone is not wrong about the translation doing this story dirty. I thought I was reading a google translation until I remembered I was reading the actual translated chapters linked on novel update. Like you need strong abilities to get context clues as sometimes people's names just randomly keep changing or something. Along with the typical evidence of google translation where someone went from a girl to a guy every now and then. Still I highly recommend people... more>> giving this novel a chance.

The main character is pretty overpowered due to his abilities. But not perfect as he is often reckless when it comes to his safety. There is also a lot of funny moments involving everyone calling him suspicious or commenting on his extremely silly dog loving behavior.

The best part of this novel is that each character in the story feels real as they each have their own concerns and preferences. Also they don't just suddenly disappear never to be seen again after being saved. They still show up as friends that congratulate or worry for the main character with each new event.

A few downsides to this story besides the translation is that the main character still treats it too much like a game. He will often let things slide for his "playable characters". And the annoying part being guys getting jealous over him for having a friendly relationship with their crushes.

Spoiler

Personally, I am more worried about the main character getting together with the dog over any of his female friends. XD

That is how much it is only friendship between him and any female. I have doubts that their will be a female lead in this story.

Furthermore, it is really amazing how villains in this novel don't get killed. While their punishment may make them wish they were dead. They do get to keep their lives so far as of chapter 189.

[collapse]

Overall, it is a good novel with something constantly happening in a single day. Filled with plenty of comedy and heartwarming moments as well. <<less

This novel is good, but the translation was atrocious before waffles saved us. You can read the other team like it's MTL (likely one) my brain can't take it any further MTLs chapters, so I'm gonna place this Novel on hold and stack the waffles releases. That's all for the TL issue.

For the plot itself ... more>>
Spoiler

the MC is someone that has the power to perfectly use all the playable characters that he is already nurtured. When he is use it, he can use all their power, and the original character is still there in the same world. It's like a perfect copy but at the same time, it's not since the replicated was nurtured characters.

[collapse]

The world-building was using the Korean with all the magic and replacing some structural for plot-wise, since rereading the novel when the new decent TL team takeover this novel I can't say much. I'm gonna update this review after reading more new decent TLed chapters. <<less

I'm sure it gets better down the line but, from what I read, this is pretty bad, not just tr*shy bad, but genuinely awful (not talking about the translation). It features one of the most contrived conflicts and "plot twists" I've read in a long time. It's really annoying because it goes against everything it was established for the sake of shock value, again, for the "plot twist."

I don't know if I want to wait until the sunk cost fallacy kicks in to start enjoying this.

Also, friendly reminder to never... more>> read from NovelMultiverse, just find an agreggator site. Don't even bother clicking on their site. <<less

I read library key translations.

This novel was enjoyable but I got bored.

Maybe I'm still not ready for the Korean style of storytelling or another reason, but I just continue for now.

... more>> I'll continue reading this once I am in the mood.

This story is like a slice of life but with new things happening regularly.

Characters feel shallow for now, I didn't connect with any of them, not even MC.

Worldbuilding is alright but it just feels packed sometimes.

Development and arcs are fine, they are enjoyable, but I just don't feel the grand purpose behind all of this. MC just feels like he's trying to pick the best options from his memory of the game, but we don't understand why he's trying that from the start. It's fine if he has another purpose in mind, but for now all we know is that he's trying to save the world for no reason.

The pacing is done in a lower-than-normal pace. It's just enough, even though I like a faster pace, but I don't mind this too. <<less

The initial story was enjoyable at first with the setup and getting to know the characters, but by the chapters in the 70s the quality and grammar of the translations began to noticeably decline along with the names of the characters becomes less and less consistent as they go on.

The later on the story arcs also kept getting dragged out. The earlier chapter arcs may have been wrapped up in about 3-4 chapters each, but the later ones may end up being even more than double that with the pacing... more>> of the extended chapters feeling like a drag. As for the MC's personality:

Spoiler

The MC's personality also felt like it was becoming less and less proactive as the story went on compared to near the beginning.

This novel starts strong, fast and puts the protagonist in a desperate situation, then goes slow. If it had more of those encounters then it would be a 4 or 5 star from me. There are some fun moments while he fights underground organisations.

The protagonist has an incredibly wide range of abilities, however, he rarely uses them due to lack of combat situations. There is so much slice of life that I wonder why the main character even needs his powers. There are many animal clans that take over the... more>> story for their clan meetings, filled with child like conversations. If I had to compare to a similar work, I would say the early chapters of Novel’s Extra did a slightly better job using the same premise by having a more vulnerable main character, acting as an extra, thrown into more frequent challenging situations. <<less

Not sure about this one. The TL is a somewhat readable MTL, but I think I read enough chapters to give an unbiased review.

The base idea is cool ("I know the plot, and I am going to change it, because I am OP"), but the execution has a few flaws. The MC is a passive-loner-gamer-nerd without social skills before his death and then suddenly turns into a charming, scheming, well-spoken schoolboy again who makes deals with all the other OP characters. There is no character-development.

Same with the world/abilities/items/rarities: It is... more>> a game world, and the MC sees everything from the game perspective (levels, numbers,...), but very quickly the whole system becomes a mess. Most of the times the numbers play no role, everything gets glanced over. Why even bother? Especially the rarities: There is really no feeling that something is SSR (super-super-rare), stuff is like cabbages.

Still, there are a few cool ideas so I give this a tentative 4. Could have been a 3 as well. Novel shows potential, but if I continue then with a good TL.

Stuff I really liked:

The name... the author writes the name, like a guy who has written these stories before or at least read enough to the point to competently write what he has said in attempted better form. Why then did he give this novel a name that reeks of a first time attempt by newbie author. Besides that this story so far is pretty solid if you have read the genre before you have read this before. It does not offer anything new, but at the same time it is good enough... more>> with an overused troupe that I could see a first time to the genre reader picking this up and calling it the best novel.

c144

What is going on... this thing started really great. Had the powers, the intrigue, the action, the plot. It had it all, and yet now. It is just bogged down with filler content. I feel like I'm reading something like the text script for "Boy meets world" a random middle school episode. This thing digressed so much Ive lost so much enthusiasm trying to just push past. However, it is just so much unnecessary filler nonsense. This is like reading "My Death Flags Show No Sign of Ending" and it focus on Harold stokes making friends and maintaining his friendships, 7/10 of the story. With the rest being about solving crisis. It is absolutely supposed to be the other way around. I don't want to read an entire chapter, with the biggest highlight being a boy and a girl had a silent argument. Resulting in them doing chores in separate parts of the house. While classmates stand around befuddled as to if that means they are in a romantic relationship. (Too many chapters like this) This is bordering on shoujo which is a good genre but I started this novel with an action series based premise. Not even something like Natsume's book of friends where you from the get go understand OK action is not even so much secondary as much as it is back-burner.

3.5/5

c168

Then it is back again at the original pacing after at least a rough 30 chapters of filler padding this novel could be cut down alot still a good story just unnecessarily padded. <<less

Its a good read. Easy to follow even with poor translation. The characters are lovable and have a good plot.

But sometime I feel like there is just something out of the blue that come out. Maybe it because I don't do game that much but sometime I was confused by what was the plot of the game. If it was a novel, it has a linear narrative from beginning to the end, but its different with games and this is where it gets confusing for me.
