Description
Links are NOT allowed. Format your description nicely so people can easily read them. Please use proper spacing and paragraphs.Apparently, I, a popular doujinshi artist, had died due to pushing myself in finishing up my new summer release.
So I was called by a masochistic fat god, who’s a fan of my work, to reincarnate into another world. And due to this fat god’s preference, my body’s now that of Lily the Succubus, a character from my work! And my power’s proportional to the times my books have been ‘used’!?
Nonono, that’s weird you know?! Hey, Butagami! Let me hit you, dammit!!

- Premise:
The protagonist is a Japanaese ero-doujin artist who dies and gets reincarnated by a god, who is a fan of his work. The only catch is that he is turned into Lily, the succubus protagonist of his latest doujin, and her power level is proportional to the "popularity" of his works, making him (now her) extremely OP. Then she becomes an adventurer, gets a cute dog-girl companion, and goes adventuring, same old, same old.-
- Setting:
More or less your usual, adventure-friendly isekai world. You have your adventurer's guild with receptionists and quests boards, monster-drops, nice veteran adventurers, rude male adventurers who exist to be stomped later on, all of it inside a medieval kingdom with nobles and a magical school. Same old, same old, again. The metaphysics are also nothing ground-breaking. Magic is element-based, and it follows the Nasuverse idea of there being true magic (aka.: instinctual reality-warping magic) and magecraft (aka.: formulaic magic based on chants and magic circles that anyone can learn so long as they have some aptitude, and exist to emulate true magic). Other than this, the metaphisics are not particularly well-defined, and while there are skills, there are no overt LitRPG elements.-
- Characters:
We have our protagonist, who is, despite being an adult man in the body of a teenage girl, somehow still completely lacks common sense or self-preservation instincts. Her power levels are all over the place: at one moment, she boasts that she has inexhaustible magic supplies, but then when the plot demands it, she runs dry and collapses to create drama. She can conjure literally any item, magical or otherwise, she can imagine out of thin air, yet most of the time she only uses it to create beds or normal clothes. Not only that, but she can use spells that literally freeze enemies in time, yet she bothers to kill an enemy that doesn't even seem that dangerous at a glance by creating a tiny little sun and dropping on it, something that, according to her, would erase the mountain if it when out of control... only for the enemy to shrug it off. In other words, she is simultaneously incredibly broken, yet also completely vulnerable and useless at the same time. The side-characters are even less defined, with only one or two common traits; Arisa, the cuteness-obsessed clumsy mage being the only slightly memorable one, and she is barely a side-character. The MC's companion, Urania, is a loli dog-girl, who is conveniently smitten with her and doesn't mind the MC siphoning her life essence by kissing, something she periodically has to do because she is a succubus. Otherwise, she is just a cute girl that solely seem to exist as an ideal love-interest for the MC, with little to no personality to speak of. In other words, the side-characters are woefully under-developed, and mainly exists for plot-convenience.-
- Plot:
This is yet another driveless isekai story. The MC has absolutely no dreams or goals from the very beginning, nor are there any external forces or threath urging her forward, which in turn makes this into a completely passive story where the MC is just going with the flow without ever considering her options or having any opinions of her own. If anything, she is so passive that the author, using the hands of the local guild master, periodically has to forcefully push her and the plot forward, first by forcing her to team up with Urania, then by forcing her to go on an expedition so that the veteran adventurers can gauge her abilities, and then by forcing her to attend the local magic school. If he didn't exist to push things forward, there would be even less plot going on, and unfortunately this only further reinforces the MC's unwarranted naivety and complete lack of drive (or character).-
- Final Verdict:
If you are looking for a naive, passive, and allegedly cute OP loli having an adventure in a fantasy world... well, there are better options out there, but this one is readable, I suppose. Aside of the inconsistent power-levels and every element of the story being, for lack of better words, anemic, there really isn't any big, deal-breaker issue with it. It's just mediocre, and unfortunately wastes much of its premise. It's okay as a light read, and since the chapters are really short, you can probably read the entire first volume in an hour or so, but nothing to write home about.-
- Like mentioned in other reviews, Lily has little to no downsides of being succubus. The life essence theme is a pretext for yuri scenes. The problem is that it doesn't work very well. Lily's a loli succubus, so don't expect any... le*d/succubus worthy developments.
Spoiler
[collapse]
- She's too OP. The author tries to qualify this by claiming her abilities are "sealed", but this is never explained well. We don't know what Lily's actually capable of at full, and she's so strong that it's boring. There isn't any tension or chaos to spice up life, and any attempts at doing this from the world building/setting with her circumstances as an OP magic user in the world is extremely lackluster.
- Same old trope of "hiding my powers but doing a stellar job at failing at it/being too busy showing off as chaddess". Once again, we have a reincarnated adult individual who retrogresses to a mindset of a chunni/kid who doesn't understand the concept of consequences....*facepalms*
Thanks to being OP and a succubus, it seems like this story is aiming to be a bit of slice-of-life + yuri + the whole "I'm gonna be an adventure trope", but it feels like the author is confused on where he wants to take his story.There are some mysterious circumstances regarding her birth and possibly an evil, twin succubus sister making her way into the story, but it's a sideplot/sidethought left to die. IMO there's some parallels/inspiration from Fate/Kaleid Liner Illya and Chloe with Lily's character design. The loli succubus, life-essence yuri kissing, and the OPness, but it's a shame since there isn't any of the same badass feeling or floofness. Plus Chloe's more of a succubus than Lily, and IMO, I would rather read about her evil twin.
For instance, the gap between between the guild rank up exam and the noble request was just jarring. At one moment, Grim's and Fyne's party were confirming that Lily is a pure magic user/sorceress, and then at the next moment, she's going off to take the rank up exam to delay her admission in the magic academy. Where did the crap with Ada and the tutoring sidejob come from?
There's a point in the story where the MC gets her arm blown away by her employer's kid. Her response "Taint no big thing" the kid doesn;t even get reprimanded.🤦♂️
She gets forced to go to a magic school, and is harassed by nobles, and even her primary teacher tries to have her killed.
