Description

Links are NOT allowed. Format your description nicely so people can easily read them. Please use proper spacing and paragraphs.

Kim Dokja does not consider himself the protagonist of his own life. Befitting the name his parents gave him, he is a solitary person whose sole hobby is reading web novels. For over a decade, he has lived vicariously through Yu Junghyeok, the main character of the web novel Three Ways to Survive the Apocalypse (TWSA).

Through Junghyeok, Dokja has experienced secondhand the trials of repeatedly regressing in time, in search of an end to life-threatening “scenarios” that force people to act out narratives for the amusement of god-like “Constellations.”

After reading 3,149 chapters—long after all other readers lost interest—Dokja finally resigns himself to the story ending. However, he receives an enigmatic message from the author, stating that the story will soon be monetized, before his surroundings suddenly go dark.

He swiftly realizes that fiction has become reality and he is now living through TWSA. Although he is the singular omniscient reader of the events yet to come, his success in the scenarios is not guaranteed—but perhaps his advantage will empower him to step into the protagonist role that never suited him before.

What should I say? It's much deeper than I thought, and even though I'm not a huge fan of time paradox, I think it was pretty well incorporated here. Heck, even plot armour and the 'coincidences' or'lucky' incidents all have a reason behind them. It was an amazingly planned out novel. A difficulty in reading it was that the authors often use lots of terms and lingo that you might not know so it did take quite alot of effort to understand what's what.

But hey, I really love these kinds... more>> of stories where it somewhat feels like a mashup of fables and the plot, and more than that I love this kind of story where the MC is OP yet not too OP, and uses everything he can to get the conclusion he's aiming for. Plus he's not s*upid and actually thinks things through instead of being reckless like the typical hot-blooded MC. He does his best, he gives it his all to protect his friends and move forward, at risk of himself. It makes me really happy to read such wholesome, no-one-gets-sacrificed, happy ending after the tragedy kind of story.

The setting of the whole thing just gets you thinking too, and makes you imagine about so many things, one of the great joys I have when I read a good novel. Plus, it's nice to see how the MC wasn't suddenly thrown into a story that he didn't belong to at all, and it's not technically a different world. I think they did really well in making sure that he was as much a part of the world as all the other characters were.
Spoiler

ok not a very big spoiler, but in my opinion, what is listed as the epilogue is not the after-story that most novels are, but the real conclusion. That was the part that really had me almost falling into my screen and in tears.

I dislike one thing: that I don't get to read/see a scene where they are all truly happy, with the 100% recovered Kim dokja being with them and being happy. Even though the last chapter builds up and basically says that they'll be happy, I'd hv liked to see them happy, for some closure. A legit epilogue, you could say. But I guess I should have expected this kind of ending, since from the start to end, none of the 'stories' of the MC group has ever had a complete conclusion. Since the reader is supposed to imagine it for them :')

[collapse]

Overall, a fantastic read, and for the people who fall into novels like me, 500+ chapters is a breeze and was totally worth my emotional investment for the time spent reading it :) Definitely recommend you to read, because we're all 'readers' that can empathize with the story <<less

Great story that I never regret to read it. I really enjoy reading this one. Actually, I just clicked it accidentally (sorry grammar suck) I really surprised to see how smart our Dokja (reader) at first before I really really love to see him and his KDJC's journey. Not only Dokja is so OP but Everyone is f*cking so OP. They're not like a mere character for me and not even one chapter of this bored me. (Some arc might be slow at first but it will give you hype... more>> later)

This is the story that show 'the power of the story' between Protagonist, Reader and Author so I will tell you one thing 'Maybe you can predict some parts of this story but you will never no what going to happen next (?) ' haha It's confusing right? That's what I feel while reading. Anyway it's full of emo (I cried so hard at CH525)

I hope you guys read this story as well. I believe it will be the journey you've never seen before. Also if you see reviews from those who give low-rate points (1-2 star) below and it make you hesitate to start reading, just look at 'their status' they went through, 'not completed yet' 95% for sure :) thus will you still hesitate because of those who gave up to read it till the end? *It's alright if it's not your taste but just get off quietly OK (^3^) |?

Finally, Thank you for authors to give this story to come exist in this world. <<less

This novel is unlike any I've read. It's moving, annoying, and I couldn't read it in long stretches. The message is subtle and overt at the same time. It contradicts itself and fixes those contradictions. But I loved it and not a single character felt character-like and I'll remember each and every one of them.

The ending is freaking Genius.

The story might seem very inconsistent until you reach around 500. At first everything was so confusing but by the time you reach the epilogue, every minute detail finally meets it's cause. And the author completes the story at a point where it makes us ponder, 'could it be that I contain a part of his soul?' making us a part of it as well. I have never seen more plot twists in a story ever before. And the fact that not everything about the working... more>> of this world is understood makes us believe that even the author is not an omnipotent but a part of the world. <<less

I’m just gonna say that you should read it to the end. It will be confusing every now and then because of the writing style but trust me, but the explanations as well as the ending and epilogues are just pure gold. It’s a hidden gem that you won’t be able to see its values unless you read all of the chapters.

Having binge this novel, I could say that the novel isn't perfect. The beginning of the novel is really interesting, but as it continue, the story keep having plot twist and getting a bit boring. But I can say that sticking until the end of the novel won't be a disappointment. The Epilogue arc is beautifully written, a conclusion that the reader would want.

Wew, the plot was somewhat predictable (MC story) but still interesting and entertaining, at least most of it. I found it harder to keep reading after around chapter 200, skipped a lot until the last chapters. Epilogue was my favorite part, totally worth to read completely. Also, the idol group was hilarious lol

Ummm there's a lot of drama, characters suffering was hard to read, I truly felt sorry for them : (

Anyways, it's a good novel, haven't read a lot of korean novels but after God of Crime I think... more>> this is my second favorite. <<less

It's an amazing novel, I can't recommend it enough.

Spoilers Ahead:

The characters are amazing but not perfect by the ending they were still like that, but the thing this novel was trying to teach us that you can't know a character from a novel even if you read it a thousand times made that all the characters more life like.

The story at the start is kinda generic, but the more I read the more I got pulled into their story (pun intended), then into the second half the world building just... more>> got better, loved why the main focus on their power was the 'story', also a favorite is that this novel has "no plot holes" its just the actual MC trying to help himself while interfering with the story.

PS: If I'm Kim-dokjas reincarnation I hope I helped a bit with a happy ever after epilogue. <<less

ORV is a pretty good story with pretty good translating. Its not hard to find all the chapters, translated into english at least. Its not great, but its pretty good. Comparable with "I Alone Level-Up" and "tr*sh of the Count’s Family."

What caught me by surprise, and isn't reflected in the Genre or Tag labels, is the amount of male-male "attraction." Pretty much, "Shounen Ai." Not Yaoi though, at least by chapter 229. There is also cross dressing and gender bending.

So if Shounen Ai bothers you? Don't bother trying to just... more>> push through and go read something else. Because it keeps showing up. <<less

Normally when main character (MC) transmigrate into a novel. The original MC will become a cannon fodder or super villain or just side character to be ignore. But Omniscient Reader's Viewpoint did not forsake the original MC. The original still detain his true-full position until the end. You can say that Omiscient Reader's Viewpoint have 2 MC. The transmigration MC and the original MC. This point making this novel as a one of its kind.

There's a part of me that wishes I never read ORV. Not because it was bad or anything, but because of the emotional rollercoaster this novel has put me through.

From the description/summary of the novel, you might think this novel is another one of those stories where the reader has fallen into the world of the novel they've been reading.

To be honest, the description was a bit deceiving and wrong. The reader does not fall into the world of the novel. Rather, the novel becomes his new reality.

This is not... more>> your typical novel, it's not until past the 100th chapter do things really pick up and you see what sets this novel aside from the others. The world the author has built and the concepts they thought up are truly astonishing. The author has definitely planned this out well and things from the beginning of the novel are brought up again. Just when you think the author has forgotten about the things they mentioned at the beginning, it's brought back out and used naturally.

Just when you think you've finally had everything figured out, plot twists come out to blindside you once again.

I ask those of you who are thinking of reading this novel to give it a chance and see where it leads you.

I look forward to rereading this in the future but reading the manhwa will suffice for now. I can't wait to see the truly epic scenes of ORV depicted visually.

Until then, YJH x KDJ forever. <<less

Those who wrote the review without reading until at least 100/200 should just delete their review cause they have not yet read and understood the true essence of the story.

My thoughts after reading: WEWWW what a journey binge reading this novel till 6/7am for 4 days straight!! It’s been a real rollercoaster ride and was straight up confused yet mindblowned by the ending. Character development is real good as it is evident how each of them has changed throughout the chapters. The world development was confusing at the end, but... more>> the plot somehow makes so much sense and just blew me away. 10/10 recommend and TRUST ME. It is not AT ALL any other reincarnator manhwa/novel out there. It is a whole new level of depthness and is really distinct from the whole OP protagonist who get all the extra bonus and profit and stuff. All in all, wow it is easily the best and most fulfilling (most completed) novel I've read. <<less

I often try not to read novels that are too long or complete due to me losing interest but this story was enough for me to break that habit. Probably my favourite story upon completing it and one of my favourites after. The concept and execution are both great

This is my first time leaving a review bec I JUST CAN'T CONTAIN MY FEELS. ORV is a hidden gem. Some people may think its some cliche trope but I'm telling you, its not. The plot starts at the very beginning and you won't understand if you haven't read the whole thing. Small details will later have big roles, and some things that you may think doesn't make sense will make sense later on.

What I love the most is ofc the characters and their development throughout the novel. I saw... more>> someone in the review says that side characters are unnecessary but that is not true. SIDE CHARACTERS ARE NECESSARY! They are not one-dimensional, they also have their own purpose and they are not just there to act as a foil for the MC. They well-fleshed, have emotions, and they are relatable.

I would love to read this again (like kim dokja) and feel the same rollercoaster of emotion. I want to fight with them again, smile with them, laugh with them, cry with them, and achieve the ending with them.

10000000/10 would recommend. <<less

First time reviewing a novel.

This is an amazing novel, sure some parts are inconsistent and force the logic of “it’s a novel world, it doesn’t have to make sense”, however, weirdly so, it does make sense in the end. It’s a paradox. Similar to that of a square circle, a paradox only realisable with words and can’t be superimposed with reality.

There are many reviews mentioning how the plot armour is too strong or Deus ex Machina running rampant, but my comments are to stick with the novel, and you will... more>> be surprised how these become actual plot devices and to the very end, affect the
