Pleasing Start-Over

Description

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

Qiao Chen was mysteriously transmigrated to the interstellar era. As an adult from his original world, he was forced to grow up all over again in this new one. Now, out of nowhere, he was requested (forced to take on) with the inexplicable task of jumping from world to world to save the high general’s soul.

Throughout his journey, Qiao Chen finds that these worlds and bodies he’s jumping in and out of are his previous reincarnations. Whether or not these all culminate into coincidences or a predetermined destiny, there’s things that must be done while completing the main task:

-Avenge his past life

-Take revenge

-Fulfill past regrets

-Realize those lost dreams

-Make up for past failures

Since God has given him these opportunities to rewrite his fate, why wouldn’t he be pleased to start-over?

I just want to say though, the translator did a great job of it but these stories always make me wonder how the MC would have ever succeeded if he didn't have an 'almighty system'. for me, It's a time-killing story; something I can leave in my guilty pleasure box.

I don't need to be heavily invested in the (lack of sensible) story line.

I can read on secure in the knowledge that the MC always wins and is OP as shit

... more>> i can enjoy the nice and satisfying face slapping.

and Even though the plot is thin and exaggerated to the high heavens, the translation is good and it can wash away my unwillingness to part with any story that preceded it and was just so nice: it didn't want to leave my brain. (I started this after I finished 'Heroic Death System")

i rarely write a review because english not my language that I speak but for this storie I tried

1: I don't know if I can say I love or hate this storie.

2: the MC storie is very interesting and touching in every world and how MC wants to change his fate.

3: but I think the meeting between the MC and ML is forced and something missing.

4:and the r*pe scene not my dish too....

sorry for my possible spelling mistakes

I haven't done any review before but here we go...

I really enjoy QT stories and OP MC and a good face slapping so I don't find any issue with that in this story, I really like it and the translator just does an amazing work (ꈍᴗꈍ) ♡

Why I don't give five stars then?I really, really, reaaaaally hate the fifth arc, I was just so f*cking angry

  • The ML just destroys de MC militar career because “he didn't follow his orders” bullshit
  • The author ‘tried’ to write a light BD*M without research, awful
  • In that arc de ML is just so horrible, I like reading possessive characters but this one was SO BAD (and believe me, I've read pretty possessive ML's and MC's the difference? They were well written)
  • This one was far beyond my limit, I will still read the next arcs because the other arcs were amazing and I really like them, so I will the author another chance (in the notes, the author said that the original ML will be back because of all the discomfort with that ML in the fifth arc so... I'll read the next arc as soon I calm down
    [collapse]
I'll act as if the fifth arc didn't happen, and I'll still read the novel, 'cause I really like it

The other arcs are really good I hope the author can go back and write the other arcs as good as the first four ✧\ (>o<) ノ✧ <<less

FOD is one of my fav and bcs of that I almost read every bl transmigration. But yeah, some is not really my style. I prefer one faithful love rather than harem. And ofc I don't like when ML hurts MC. And this novel is really good. Not really complicated like FOD. This is more simple. And I really like when the MC can be independent but also not refuse the help by ML.

A ~meh~ story. The ML falls in love at first sight, and gives MC full support so that the MC has no troubles enacting his revenge. The satyromaniac ML has some weird fetishes, and feels awkward reading them...

The stories are not that amazing either, just so-so, like the usual run-of-the-mill quick transmigration stories...

An okay book to spend my spare time with. Though I was interested by the premise 'fixing bad fate of their previous lives', it got bland overtime with the same type of antagonists who cook up the same type of evil schemes every single time.

The more steamy scenes are meh; mind you, I love dubious consent in fics, but the ones here are just... eh, so-so.

Absolutely love the MC though. An apathetic person that gradually warms up overtime? Yeah that's my kind of sh*t alright ???

I suspect author periodically smokes and gets stoned. About this later.

Started this after the other novel - Cannon Fodder Cheat System. And if you read both, you can see that they are 1) very similar; 2) one is like the draft of the other (CFCS written later).

I rated this with 3 stars for one simple reason, it's not entirely bad novel, it has some interesting ideas, but it's definitely not thought through and lack in lots of departments. It's very raw at the beginning with little potential later, it also... more>> feels kind of long and short at the same time. Now some thoughts on it:

STORY:

    • A bundle of things. Rushed things at first (maybe it's their first novel ever?). I tried not to think how some things contradict each other or how illogical/non-practical some things were. It was obvious author's imagination galloped like a wild horse here and there and they started to correct themselves later (not really). But the basic idea is to plug in MC to their device that sent him to worlds where he should find general's soul and bring it back. The reason - his brainwaves are most close. But later we find out it's not just traveling, but living through his reincarnations. Basically, his goal is just general's soul, but since he knows that his previous reincarnations had a bad ending he focuses to avenge himself too. To achieve the goal he was equiped with a "system", yet it's not a separate smth, everything is like a program in his head, which helps him achieve better characteristics. Not mad at this and don't really care, especially when some things are toned down (e.g. Psychic mind control in first Arc, later mentioned that it doesn't work fully controlling ppl, just weak-minded etc.) or there are plenty descriptions of talent and hard work (paintings in Arc 4, when MC gifts it to temple, mother, creates business around it etc.).
WORLDS:

    • Author tried to put out different worlds, they like to give their worlds a simple notion, main theme. Descriptions aren't deep though.
    • CFCS actually repeats some of these worlds, like interstellar and mechas, they even started almost the same. Many are right saying this is draft, I'd say CFCS took it to a better level.
    • The stoned part. I don't know if there are gonna be similar worlds, but boy I think while writing interstellar music (3rd Arc) author was stoned. Maybe the idea was good enough (music and spiritual power go hand in hand), but the execution was really weird to imagine. Many things weren't explained properly and they felt rigid. But when it got to concert and dolphin part, boy have I laughed my ass off so much.
CHARACTERS:

    • MC. The root of author's problem imo is lack of descriptions and feeding the imagination. I do wonder how characters look like just for the sake of starting point. Because on top of some smudged images you don't really get anything. His character is pretty simple, stoic, cunning, and strong.
    • ML. Domineering, strong, a bit obsessed. Arc 1 spoils things a bit, but later it's revealed that his behavior have depended on a 'good will' program pre-installed, which later was removed. Though ML continued to be rouge and not likable. It's that type of overbearing that is over the top.
    • I'd like to mention that for many their relationship might be forceful, but unlike first Arc, where MC fell hard in love, actually, MC knows his target, that it is the same person and he could lure and love him openly (he had no reason not to), that's why he openly flirts in his own way. Especially knowing that goodwill program was turned off and their felings are sincere he dives right in.
So after all what can I say. There are novels far worse than this one, far more ridiculous, but despite some nonsense I still find it readable. The main problem is (and maybe will be) that it's stuck in times when author shows potential stuff and later switches to something not that impressive. So it's a weird combo, be warned :) <<less

I read alot of Quick transmigration/ System administrator novels and this is my favorite genre, but I must say I only rate it 3.

It has good plot in arcs but I must say the plot and ending of the revenge gets short after MC and ML find each other and more like showing how possessive/Jealous ML is or the smut kind of scenes.

The other thing that made it rate it 3 was the romance, I know ML must be attracted to MC and all but their romance is very fast... more>> paced, like after meeting each other 2 times they jump straight at it and do it.which made me feel the book gets boring after a few arcs.I wish ML would've let MC had more freedom in decisions and not influenced by ML. And I wish they wouldn't Jump at smut scene when the arcs just have started, that made me feel like they are just attracted to eachother and no deep love, sometimes.

Overall, if you want a quick read in this genre and no deep plot and possessive ML I suggest you reading this, good for killing time and quick read. <<less

I read any novel with system. For my opinion, its have a good story. But something made me just give 4 star when I read.

First, MC like a God. He can manipulated people mind so its make everything so easy for him.

Second is ML always love MC so easy.

I dont think this novel dont have much reason for make them play on the bed after a few meeting.

But, over all, all the arc have a good story

Just from the first few chapters you can tell that the plot is rushed. I mean 3 chapters in and they are already doing it, even though MC and ML have only met once/twice. It's just too „unrealistic" and very questionable. You can't even say that it's love at first sight because ML was like „carpe diem" and MC just „Sure". I'm not even kidding. This is exactly what happened. So just by this you can tell that the plot (or the first arc at least) is completely nonsense and... more>> abrupt. <<less

This novel is still okay, although some plots are really similar to FOD.

But, some things are not explained well. For example, what happenned to QC (MC) body in the first world b4 he got transmigrated? I really want to know that.

If youre only reading to pass time leisurely, this novel is okay.

So, I loved both ML & MC. The story is about how, MC a orphan is asked to rescue a famous army personnel who was in coma n his souls are lost in time n space fabric.

MC is apathetic doctor, who accidentally transmigrated, so he has been doctor for two life. And because of his unique brain wave he can travel space time to collect General (ML) soul.

And during all arcs he discovered it was his past lifes, and then he decides to change his sad ending, while recovering soul.

I like the concept of 'multiverse' hopping, but the longer I read it the more I feel like I'm doing a chore. The breakneck pacing might be the biggest culprit, and whilst I like the MC's apathetic personality; most of it doesn't feel like him after arc 1.

It's plot has multiple holes imo, so it's best to not think much when reading. Just enjoy the one-shot like stories, but still; pacing. if you're working with a multiverse like story, if the pacing isn't good then it's not going to be... more>> enjoyable. No matter how fun an MC or concept is, if execution isn't well done then it's not going to be a fun read. <<less

I enjoyed it. I liked how so many of the arcs were set in the interstellar period. This is a very classic QT novel with a tiny semblance of interlinking plot.

Started reading this and was like "This is super familiar... have I read it before, or just one that was similar?" So kept reading.
And then was interested until I got to the chapter where
Spoiler

the translator warns that the entire chapter is dubcon. And suddenly didn't feel like reading anymore.

I may come back to it later, since I'm pretty sure I have read it in the past, but for the moment, dropping.

I like this author and I love the translator, so I enjoy reading the novel. It's a carbon copy of Quickly Wear the Face of the Devil but many times simpler and paler. Still quite enjoyable and excellent in its own right.

Spoiler

By "enjoyable" I mean the first two arcs. The rest of them are not good at all.

Imma give it a 5 stars tho, even if the villains are very repeating and all basically brain dead with their logic, face-slapping is life hahahaha. Besides if you have a system that's so useful then put it to use, who's just gonna put a useful system away for no reason, I also relate to MC eith his laziness hahahaha if you have it then use it.

Spoiler

the villains survive till the end of each arc or continue living without redemption

You have to like quick transmigration and OP protagonists.

Tag: OP, world hopping, unbearably tragic pasts, annoying villains

... more>> ML: has a powerfull identity in each world

System: no personality, just a tool. MC can use it as he pleases.

Author's notes:

CP: (Very) OP Shou with a Gold Finger X THICK Thigh Gong

Same soul throughout all arcs: 1 V 1

Translator: Get ready for a fast paced (8 arcs in 100~ chapters fast) transmigration story with plenty of revenge and face slapping.

T/W: Dubcon for arcs 1-4. Depictions of r*pe from arcs 5-6.

My own summary for every arc:

Spoiler

Arcs 1-4 great! (I didn't write a review/summary)

Arc 1. [The Rich and Powerful Occupy the Magpie Nest] chap. 2-13

Tag: modern

Arc 2. [Mech Engineer: System V. System] chap. 14-29

Tag: interstellar, stolen and copied work,

Arc 3. [Interstellar Musicians: Competing with a Musical Genius] chap. 30-38

Tags: interstellar, muscic, war, zerg ?,

Arc 4. [Crossing Over Against a Transmigrator ] Ch 39-52

Arc 5. [Interstellar Military Cadets with Abilities] Ch 53-67

Tag: interstellar

CP: student x admiral

This arc is sh*t and should be forgotten, like it never existed. (Because the author felt a little experimental and made a failed attempt at BD*M with ML's character being overbearing, rapy, sadistic and he completely disregards MC's opinions and dreams)

Arc 6: [Modern Entertainment World] Ch 68-78

Tags: modern, entertainment world

CP: actor x entertainment company boss

ML = screen writer, director, producer, actor, perfectionist, boss of a big entertainment company

Original = bad at acting, sincere, dreams to on day improve and become a good actor, his father is backing him from behind (=part of the boardroom of the entertainment company), died after being betrayed by his idol (who schemed to kill his father, he was also poisoned/ disabled and sold to a businessman who wanted his body.

HE. This story was okay, it included some typical face slapping, a bit of romance and a pe*verted husband.

Arc 7. [End of the World: The Doctor] Ch 79- 91

Original: Doctor family, has a crush on his best friend (?) who takes excessive good care of a junior at school because he is pitiful. That junior took advantage of his good will and managed to get into the originals family clinic without any skill. Because of instigatings from that junior their relationship broke apart (in a bad way). The apocalypse started the junior stole the originals family heirloom/treasure and convinced everyone to throw him out of the base.

MC woke up in a factory, fled incoming zombies. Awakened his high level healing ability. Went to a nut (?) farm/plantage. Thought he would die because of the sudden appearance of high level zombies, but was saved by ML. Wo is a military commander (?). Than entered their base and aspired to be a researcher in order to develop a cure.

Very average with s*upid and anoying villains, and cannon fodder.

Arc 8. [The Prophesy] Ch 92-101

Tags: interstellar, omegaverse, royal family

In order to revenge his original self, MC married the crown prince (was forced to by the queen to give birth to the princes first born, because his high fertility and special energy constitution), who despised him because he already had a lover. During the marriage ceremony he met his 'husband' who was an attending guest: the prince of the south.

ML's family was the originally rightful successor of the royal throne, but because of a scheme his grandfather died early his unkel took over with the promise to return the throne to them once he grew older but went back on his promise. ML (and in the past his father) patently waiting and built their strength on the south military planets.

Through the help of MC they easily achieve their goals and lived long happy lives together (of course married, of course MC divorced the infertile and impotent ex prince after exerting his revenge).

End. Ch. 102-103

MC returned to his original body and was given the money for successfully saving the general. However he was not allowed to see him, he could only wait and hope for ML to remember him.

But after waiting a few days and finding out ML is awake and on his way to his fiance through the news, he decides that that they already spent so many lifetimes together and they didn't need to spent this one together as well. Thought disappointed, he decided to move on and bought a manor on an island intending to live ther for the rest of his life, but surprise, surprise! ML showed up, complained about MC running away and promised to spent the rest of this and all their future lifetimes together.
