The World of the Future, Virtual Idols PK Real Idols

“Every time background music plays in my head, I feel like there is nothing to be afraid of.” —Fang Zhao

Toward the end of the apocalyptic period, Fang Zhao lost his life. However, instead of dying, he found himself 500 years later in the body of a young and aspiring composer who shared the same name. Having received a second chance at life, Fang Zhao sets out to achieve the previous owner’s dreams.

Armed with the experience of living through an apocalyptic age and his profession as a composer before that period, Fang Zhao uses his talent, wits, and knowledge to make his mark in the entertainment industry of the future.

Extremely interesting the whole way, even up to the final abrupt ending. Since it is more slice of life, the plot being cut off doesnt affect the novel too badly (imo). The characters are still interesting enough to read through and imagine the ending as you want. Read this for the characters and the setting instead of huge plot twists and sprawling complicated thought processes.

Edit: Forgot to mention that the last two chapters are locked behind an elevated paywall (beyond the usual spirit stones, it also requires the app to... more>> be installed, which is extremely annoying). This note is to mention that the last two chapters basically dont have anything important, no loss in skipping them. Quite impossible to find just through google as well. <<less

The language feels nice to read. But there's somewhat way too few interesting moments/arcs. MC creates music, the crowd goes "Whoah! Impossible-incredible etc etc" and that is pretty much it so far. The thief is already revenged, lots of side-characters appear, and... so what?.. Feels like a story about bragging.

The futuristic world is somewhat interesting, some realism about it makes it nice (but as well feels somewhat disgusting due to that theres already flying cars, spaceships, easy 200-year living but still powerty, bragging, luxury, bullies etc). MC is okay, a... more>> talented person who wishes to make use of his talent. Quite mature, but somewhat got the feeling about some grandpa showing off his big cabbage (though MC somehow doesn't even react to his success and takes it as granted, but then there's plenty of other people around him who does brag and is awe-struck so that the MC somehow sticks to his... pure (?) image). <<less

Aah... what a nice slice of life novel. I'm glad I read it~

It's your mainstream reincarnation, seemingly-genius-because-he's-actually-an-old-man-with-tons-of-experiences-and-not-a-normal-teenager MC story. Where Fang Zhao will figuratively slap anyone who mock him with his excellent work. He is not an arrogant MC, nor he's stubborn. He's smart. He knows what he's good at and that's the reason why he appear to be so OP

... more>>
Spoiler

I like the Gamer arc, btw. The imagery of Fang Zhao, killing all of those monster, doing a 360 drift on a motorcycle while swapping the guns whenever he spend all of its bullets was freaking awesome!

[collapse]

Also, kindly remember that, this novel may be slice of life, but there is a fantasy element in it as well.

Spoiler

Seriously. I should not have been that surprised when it turned out that Curly Hair is an alien and Fang Zhao's hearing is even more powerful than an owl lol

[collapse]

Unfortunately, the opening was kinda... gloss over. The author should've, at least, use chapter one to explain what was MC doing before he reincarnated. Maybe the cause of his death or something. THEN chapter 2 is where he finally reincarnated. I think the pace will be a bit better that way

Spoiler

And, typical of Slice of life novel, the story ended just like *snap finger* that. The conflict didn't mean anything to Fang Zhao himself. It was there just so Nanfeng realized that his boss is a lot more powerful than he looks. And Curly Hair is an alien he should've fear. Fortunately, every questions that I have regarding this story were answered. Even the 'Outsider' folks, that I still feel like it came out of nowhere, was explained. So, yeah. An okay ending

[collapse]

Anyway, real review. 3/5. I cannot give it a solid 4 because of the ending. And I do think that the quality of the story went down after he join the university. But it's still a nice novel overall and you guys should check it out :D <<less

3 is too low, 4 is still passable.

The main genre is slice-of-life. There's not much of the other genres and if you remove it, the whole novel isn't that much.

For people to enjoy this, just focus on the slice-of-life. I could've given this a solid 5 if there's another genre aspect that stands out or romance was a main part of it. I don't really like slice-of-life only novels so from that, you could say that this is still a good read.

It’s a great read.

It’s not about being the best, which the MC is, but just doing your best? Of course, it sets records, but it doesn’t really feel that special because it wouldn’t make sense for our MC to lose. The dog’s cute but I want to see more of MC just being OP. Especially the VR part. What can I say, I’m just a who*e for VR novels. There is no development in the MC, be it in his skills or relationships, but that’s okay. He’d probably feel like... more>> a creep with how old he technically is.

There’s not much of a plot. It’s just him steamrolling everyone. That’s the core essence of this novel, but it doesn’t suck. Oddly enough. It’s well-written and it doesn’t go boring, which is nice. The other characters are meh.

Thanks to the author, translator and editors for their hard work! <<less

Just started and deeply enjoying the novel though I do wonder about why his idiot friend thought what he did was a good idea
Spoiler

his friend who stole 3 songs of the MC to get singed onto a company that he could not get into himself. Sure he might get money now, but later on the company will come and ask for better songs. Whats is he going to do since he only got in by stealing someone else work. Lol such and idiot

I love this novel, and almost everything about it. The mature protagonist, the non violent young masters. The MC gets to do what he wants, not because of the plot forcing him.

The only problem I hated was the ignorance of the future people, forgetting even elementary stuff yet calling themselves the smarter versions of their predecessors.

The main problem I had with this novel was the obsession of MC with past. Always around when they glorify his past friends, having declared he moved on but still coming back, can only like... more>> old technology.

The most triggering thing in this novel is how everybody treats MC like a toddler, giving him advice to not be hauty and arrogant because he's too young. If it's once or twice it's kindness, but here it becomes pointless nagging every two chapters. I just hate how he can't stop it even though it's pointless concern. <<less
