He’s Pregnant with the Major General’s Fish Cub

Description

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

The little prince of the Empire suddenly became a mermaid. Since the fish’s tail appeared, he had been hiding it carefully.

Until he was hit in the head by a book, he foresaw an unknown (fake) plot—

In the book, he was gloomy and vicious. In order to obtain the throne, he didn’t hesitate to hook up with the youngest and most promising major general of the Empire and ruthlessly abandoned him after his success. Later, he was driven off the throne and locked up by the vengeful major general. He not only exposed his fishtail but also conceived the major general’s cub?!

Little prince: ??? He wouldn’t be with him even if he was cut into fish fillets!

Later, he really became pregnant with the major general’s cub…

———–

Yue Zhan was the youngest and most promising major general of the Empire. One day, he could suddenly hear the voice of the little prince and found that the other party seemed to have been ‘reborn’.

Little Prince: tr*sh Yue Zhan, even went as far as treason, bah.

Yue Zhan: ?

Little Prince: That Dog Yue even dared to lock me up and also grabbed my fishtail!

Yue Zhan: ?!

Little Prince: Ah, I won’t really have a baby, will I?

Yue Zhan: What? You’re really pregnant?

4 stars: A funny twist on the transmigration-into-novel genre featuring an interstellar mermaid mpreg romance that never takes itself too seriously (well, until some of the interstellar war stuff at the end of the novel, where it gets kinda boring with 90% told-not-shown, but more on that later). Was originally feeling this as a 4.5 or even 5 star until the last arc, where it ended up getting bumped down half a star due to the aforementioned summarizing issues. Both translations are good.

The shou MC is not actually a transmigrator... more>> into a novel, although the way the story proceeds is quite similar—instead, a book appears out of nowhere and hits him on the head, and he discovers it's an x-rated story with him as the protagonist detailing his grim x-filled future being pursued by multiple obsessive gongs and caught by the most obsessive one of all. The book is unfinished but mysteriously updates over time, so he does his best to avoid all the pitfalls and drama while also making connections with currently-unknown people who are destined to become assorted powerhouses in the future. And, of course, he does his best to not fall into a relationship with the cruel gong ML, who turns out to actually be not obsessive and totally not cruel and who can, for whatever mystifying-to-the-gong reason, hear some of the MC's thoughts when they happen to be within close distance of each other.

Comedy ensues as the ML keeps overhearing the MC's mental monologue blathering about being a main character and having a protagonist halo, and he ends up thinking the MC is a huge chuunibyou, while also being weirded out and suspicious about how the MC knows so many people he's never met before and has these weird fantasies that they're going to become bigshots in the future. He starts to become interested in the MC and eventually attracted to him while at the same time being very "... " about the little prince's delulu nature, mentally overhearing the MC's constant fantasizing about how the ML is going to lock him up and xxx him until he's pregnant (which in actuality is the MC reading the book's updates).

In the meantime, the MC is weirded out by how the ML doesn't seem to be hell-bent on imprisoning and Stockholm-syndroming him and instead seems pretty considerate toward him, and starts to wonder if the ML is reborn and going through a wife-chasing crematorium phase. Which the ML also overhears and basically facepalms. Yes, it's all pretty hilarious.

Shenanigans and side-characters and mishaps abound, between the MC's eventually-revealed mermaid heritage and related powers, military treachery, political maneuvering between the royal family and other galactic powers, etc. But none of this is particularly heavy or dramatic, being that it's all comedy and ways for the MC to avert disaster despite nobody taking him seriously as the pampered and disregarded little prince, only for people to slowly realize he's actually pretty smart (thanks to the foreknowledge his secret book offers him). To his credit though, he's a more interesting MC than many other interstellar-prince-MCs, having slightly more of a rounded personality beyond "earnest shou"—he's not above stepping on people who have it out for him, doesn't forgive those who treated him consistently badly, and isn't above an occasional bit of mischief.

The ML is a tad generic but without all the red flags that typically accompany being an interstellar military officer in a BL novel—which is to say, he's not a robotic ice cube who is only soft toward the MC while also being extremely jealous and possessive and manipulative. He is of course famous as a warrior and respected and held in some awe, and does tend to intimidate people, but he comes across as more of a semi-serious *black lines* kind of guy, one who isn't above teasing the shou or trying to cajole him while frequently being confused or taken aback by the MC's behavior versus his thoughts. Any jealousy or possessiveness he displays isn't particularly toxic or his defining characteristics, and there isn't much of either—it probably helps that he can hear the MC's thoughts fairly often and so he knows the MC isn't interested in other guys. He ends up being quite devoted and doesn't manipulate the MC in any kind of gross way that I recall, and with the mpreg stuff he actually not only takes care of the MC, but doesn't end up jealous of his own child and treating said child like an obstacle or rival. (Well, until the kid grows into a teen in the extras...)

Anyway, the CP's dynamic was both fun and hilarious in turns as they sus each other out and, after assorted twists and turns, eventually fall in love. They end up pretty cute together, and it was nice how many side characters supported them. Although many of the future-bigshot people end up getting left behind by the plot, the majority of the side characters were funny and interacted well with each other and the CP

On another side character note, I really appreciated that there was a pretty a**hole character who treated the MC and many others like expendable garbage, who did a 180 in treatment of the MC after learning new information and began to fawn on him, but the MC didn't hold with any of that and coolly kept the other character at arm's length for the rest of the story, as did others.

Spoiler

It's the emperor, Scott, who treated the MC poorly all his life because he mistakenly believed the MC wasn't biologically his son, and he only changed his tune when he later found out that the MC is a mermaid and actually his blood relation. He then began to try to ingratiate and weedle his way into the MC's good graces, and the MC was like nope nope. Later on, the emperor finds out that his beloved mermaid princess was still technically alive but asleep and tried to get info on her, but the MC again was like nope nope. And later still, when the mermaid princess MC's mother wakes up, she's pissed that the emperor treated their son like tr*sh, and also she realizes she'd been infatuated with him for his face until she realized he was actually really s*upid, and had too much ambition for his teeny amount of brains, and the whole business with cheating on her and marrying someone else and etc., and so she was no longer in love with him and in fact didn't really feel anything about him anymore.

He tried to ingratiate himself to her too after she woke up but, like her son, she was like nope nope and refused to see him. This lamewad pulled all kinds of stunts to gain pity or win praise from his son and his former lover and failed on all accounts, and to their great credit, neither the MC nor the mermaid princess were d*cks to him—they were indifferent or cold to him or ignored him, and when they did tell him off, it was coolly and much-deserved.

The extras even mention how he eventually died alone because of grief. And you know what? Good riddance. He wasn't a great emperor (pretty much everyone else ran the government and defended the empire) and not only was he a crappy father to the MC, he was also a crappy father to his other children whom he knew were biologically his own. He wasn't exactly over-the-top scum of the earth and he wasn't exactly a villain, but he was by no means a good person and got what he deserved. I lived in fear as I read that the MC was going to go soft on him and start to pity or want to reconnect with him, but thank god, the MC had no real feelings toward the guy who never treated him well and tried at the first opportunity to marry him off to secure a military advantage and also remove the MC from the line of succession.

[collapse]

The last section of the novel loses steam and ends up being a bit boring because it goes from cute, funny banter and interpersonal relationships-showing and comedic ploys to outmaneuver trouble, to giant barely-described space battles and rather dumb interstellar politics summarizing, where suddenly the zerg are introduced as a threat after no mention of them for like 50 chapters and there are traitors and hidden identities and etc, including—

Spoiler

—shady people appearing out of nowhere in the middle of galactic turmoil making big claims who really ought to be treated as a threat or at least with suspicion but because of Plot Dumb aren't kept under lock and key and military observation but are just sort of allowed to be without supervision or under guard on a vulnerable medical ship, despite both the MC (who is the crown prince of the empire and sort of an advisor/accepted part of the military chain of command) and the ML (who is the literal major general and appears to be supreme commander of the military despite the story specifically mentioning later that he has military superiors) harboring suspicions about him. But the guy claims a really fantastical-sounding identity involving being a clone of the ML's ancestor who, after being sealed away centuries ago into an alternate dimension with the zerg while nobly battling them, was captured by the zerg and had his brain preserved and consciousness transferred into said clone, and somehow he managed to miraculously escape and just so happen to end up injured and unconscious in the Sea Kingdom.

And they believe him because he looks similar to the ML, with several paragraphs devoted to suddenly telling the reader how crossbred human-alien hybrids and mixed-race humans are the norm in the interstellar era but the ML is super rare and beautiful because he's of specifically pure specifically Chinese descent, and so because this suspicious weirdo also looks pure Chinese and similar to the ML, everything he says must be true even if both the CP thinks it's all pretty sus. Sure.

[collapse]

The problem is that these grandiose battles involving multiple fleets of starships and armies of mecha and clashing galactic powers are summarized in a few paragraphs (or even just sentences), interspersed with the ever-present and increasingly-annoying peanut gallery of starnetizens making s*upid commentary. And while there's all this supposed warfare barely perfunctorily described, that means that there's less or no fun stuff with the CP or other characters because they're not the focus; at most, they also basically comment on the battles or are involved only in summaries of a few sentences. What little fun stuff there is, is still fluff and fun, but there's not enough compared to "surprise" vicious ambushes and "epic" hard-won victories covered in the span of three sentences.

It doesn't help that the ML is a major general and basically the sole commander of the entire galactic fleet and apparently doesn't take advice from or have counsel/strategy meetings with any other generals/admirals/captains/anyone else in the military (despite it being specifically noted much later on that he does have military superiors and somehow isn't the total supreme commander despite acting like one during the war), and so the supposedly ingenious strategies he employs for which he is lauded by the empire are... uh... they read like they've been written by an eight-year-old, like "and Yue Zhan was super smart so he wasn't taken by surprise and instead surprised the enemy by attacking them unexpectedly and wiped out all the zerg in the area!"

Look, I could easily suspend my disbelief and inherent overly critical nature about the CP being shipwrecked on a deserted planet only to be captured by secret enemy forces unaware of their identities and then used as guinea pigs for experiments by a reluctant sympathizer doctor who insists that they be allowed to wander freely around the military complex because their happy mental state is "necessary" for the "experiment", and other such silly plot points because the narrative is consistently light and fluff and the characters alternately take advantage of the situation while acting clueless and end up getting into trouble, and the story was still showing, not telling. But the war stuff is written much more seriously in generic summary and my suspension of disbelief is gone, as is much of my enjoyment.

I ended up skimming all of the war stuff after a while and just reading the tiny character interactions, which basically meant I read the equivalent of one former chapter after reading like 10 chapters.

And this isn't really a spoiler: there is no climactic end to all this space battle stuff, it goes from a supposedly-climactic one-on-one battle straight into a 6-month time skip in the same paragraph and practically in the middle of a sentence to the point that I thought it was exaggerating/a turn of phrase like when they say it took half a day to mean it took a long time but nope it was legit a full six months.

There were a few cute scenes and then suddenly another 6-month time skip to the war suddenly being over. Literally, it's all this buildup and generic summary about intergalactic space battles for chapters and chapters, then it suddenly skips six months and has like half a chapter of characters talking, and then skips another six months and everything is over and the fluff resumes without ever mentioning the zerg again or addressing any kind of fallout or aftermath.

Only the fluff doesn't resume—it largely suffers from the same "told, not shown" as with the war stuff. You know the whole mpreg mermaid baby egg plot point that's pretty much the basis of the whole novel, highly anticipated and with the entire story revolving around it? Yeah, this doesn't even count as a spoiler, the egg practically hatches off screen because it's not even a scene, it's a vague description, and the baby has a token physical description and then is barely featured except as a background prop with an occasional token mention of how cute it is.

The main story then ends and the extras begin. Each extra focuses on a different character or event so the writing is better again, but if you were hoping for cute parent-baby dynamics, don't hold your breath as the baby continues to mostly exist in the background or as a prop for token meng. (Though one of the extras is about the baby grown up and finding his own romance.)

Sadly, several of the extras suffer from the same told-not-shown syndrome that plagued the end of the novel, though because they're all short fluff extras, it's not as glaringly bad. The last couple extras also neatly address a couple of glaring plot holes, as if the author realized, "Whoops, totally forgot about those things, um, here you go!" Unlike other stories I've read though, these extras felt like the short cutesy extras at the end of a manga addressing forgotten or glossed-over things, and the last one did kind of tie everything together and explain some things that had actual foreshadowing way back when. So they felt like less of a tacked-on afterthought and more like real extras.

Spoiler

Specifically, they address whatever happened to/with the "original novel" that the MC relied on for a good half of the story before it stopped updating with a confession from the author that they had made up a lot of stuff and it wasn't historically accurate, and also briefly address how/why the ML can hear the MC's thoughts when he's nearby—though this bit was a couple of hand-wavy sentences, at least it happened in a cute scene and at least the ML actually finally confessed to the MC about it, so I'm moderately satisfied.

Mind you, there's still no logical (or illogical) explanation for why the book appeared out of nowhere in the first place, but given how silly the majority of the novel is, I'm okay with that just being a for-granted plot device, the same way characters transmigrate for no reason, have psychic powers for no reason, acquire systems for no reason, or are reborn for no reason.

[collapse]

So overall, the story was a fun read and I enjoyed it quite a bit until the last arc where it slowed way down and I almost lost interest but doggedly continued reading for the tiny crumbs of fluff. It's worth your time if you're in the mood for something funny and lighthearted, as long as you're aware of the last arc's issues and pacing. <<less

I enjoyed it, most of the characters were silly and hilarious.

The story is fast paced well considering the chapters and the theme, no drama the conflict with the antagonist were partly told, partly summarize. It's good for a light and fun read.

I like that there's no scheming family members except there's an idiotic father.

Because of the comedic undertones you may gloss over the darker tones of the story just like

Spoiler

like how of an irresponsible father and lover the emperor was, the pursuit of immortality and it's damage it cause to people and the inhumane practices of humans in pursuit of their greed. It shows also how a broken family affected the children especially when they're neglected. The emperor's treatment and dying alone was well deserved he was so greedy, silly, idiot, timid, incompetent, and overestimated his capabilities. He destroyed his supposedly family for a throne he didn't deserve and wasn't suitable for him.

All in all it's a fun read just for enjoyment <<less

This is a pretty short and light hearted novel about the young prince MC who suddenly became a mermaid one day and was startled to find that a prophetic book fell out of the sky.

The book foretells the future of his tragic fate with the handsome young general ML, with whom he has had little contact prior. Nevertheless, this doesn't stop MC from thinking about all the R-rated scenes from the novel every time he comes into contact with ML.

Which ordinarily would be fine, except...

Spoiler

ML can read his mind so he has no idea why the prince is always thinking some crazy pe*verted thoughts around him?! He's obviously not a criminal or a clothed beast so why does the prince always think things like that?

Centuries later, they discover that the novel was actually a danmei fanfic one of their great great great great grand nieces wrote about their relationship.

[collapse]

It's short and sweet if you're looking for some uncomplicated fluff. <<less

As everyone says, it's indeed a very fluffy novel. The misunderstandings gave me second hand embarrassment that I almost cannot read on as I kept laughing and hiding. This is one of the novel that the age difference was suitable, necessary, and acceptable. Yes, the MC is really cute, but depending on the person, he can be really annoying, judgemental even. Of course, it's only in his inner monologue and he was never outwardly rude nor personally malicious, so he's a proper human. But ML can hear his thoughts. It's... more>> very funny but if it was a different person, MC would be punch the light out of him, at least for me, if someone kept jumping into conclusion about me, I would end them in annoyance. So really, props to ML. He was the older one, and it really shows. He was mature, understanding, and reliable. He was tolerant of MC's antics even though sometimes MC sounds like a fickle scumbag in his inner monologue (as he assume he have plenty of fishes, and he would remember how the him in the book would seduce these guys, not that he would himself.)

There's only one scene that was used as comedy that I didn't like.

Spoiler

It was when the 'mermaid egg' that the emperor was incubating for years fell and broke. The emperor cried, 'his egg', and momentarily lost composure as he broke down and cry.

Yes, it wasn't the real egg as MC is the mermaid. Yes, the emperor was such a scumbag and a neglectful father (pls add that he thought MC wasn't his real child. Idk how he treat his illegitimate child tho). Yes, the emperor is such a useless monarch.

But really, how could anyone laugh when someone breakdown and thought his child just died. He incubated that 'egg' for 23yrs thinking it is his son. The netizens didn't know, so yeah they can tease about the emperor crying for his egg (the meaning of slang intended) but I'm kinda disappointed that MC and ML, who knew the situation, was acting embarrassed for the emperor's reaction just because it was public.

Idk, maybe the author wanted the whole thing as his karma, or at least the start of his karma as he would later discover MC's identity but I really just don't agree with the comedic tone of the scene. It's like laughing at someone who just got miscarriage and shaming them for their reaction.

Please, before reading make sure to throw or keep your brain out, and Don't read this if you're searching for 'realistic couple' or any realism.

Onto the review!

The whole thing is really cute, albeit a misunderstanding galore (don't worry, the misunderstandings are rather cute and funny and leads to the pair getting closer). The protagonist is actually cute and the ML is good too (nothing too unique, the usual interstellar general but friendlier and less scary).

... more>> The overall dynamic between the two of them is cute, very cute.

Best to read this after reading many bullshits with love triangles and generally everything that gives headache.

  1. 5/5; very cute, very funny, funny side characters.

I think it could've been a better story... The novel's funny and entertaining but it stopped being all that when it mocked a father's love. I understand that the previous generation is at fault, particularly the king but what the queen did was a big nope for me and how the author dealt with that issue was so tasteless to me.

... more>>
Spoiler

she was suppossed to be best friend with MC's mom, but what kind of bestie would steal her friend's child from the father who loved his son and just watch calmly as the real child was ignored by the father in place of a fake? It was depicted as the joke of the century in the novel but I couldn't help but imagine the 'what if' if the MC grew up as an imperial crown prince with the full support of his doting father and the sea kingdom. The two sides could've made up much sooner and the dispute between them might be unnecessary.

And to think that it's all because of a deluded idea of a supposed best friend. If she really thought about MC's or her friend's sake, she should've return the egg to the sea kingdom if she thought the king was at fault, but she deliberately deprived an innocent child of his father's love and just watch as he was ignored by the latter. In any other novel, she would've been that fake best friend who stole the queen's crown, the child and the glory for her family from her bestie.

Just think about it, she became a queen and gained a grand conferrence ceremony, the status and wealth for her declining noble family, and the glory of the queen which could've belonged to her best friend, but she was able to watch calmly as the supposed crown prince was ignored by the father who would've loved him so much. When I read the king's pov, I think it was a mix of his possessiveness of MC's mom, his love towards their unborn child and his inherent weakness when he was still a powerless prince... But it was true that he loved the mother and son so much. They'd be the perfect example of a baka couple who only have eyes for each other (and MC) if their love story ended happily. It's a pity that the way the author wrote and joked about it was so tacky. But this novel's mainly comedy, anyway.

[collapse]

All in all, a real best friend would've tried to mediate and untangle the misunderstading between the two lovers. I feel that they would've made up if they understood each other better since what I noticed from the king's POV is that the MC and his mom might have the same habit and personality, so they're both spoiled fishes who are easily coaxed by their lovers. Then, the sea princess could've helped him to the throne if he really wanted that crown with the support of the sea kingdom or they could've lived as a normal but loving family of three. But no, the queen just has to be selfish and watch as the couple broke up, be the wife of her best friend's ex, conferred as a great empire's queen and stole the baby MC under his father's nose. I'm sure that she didn't even care about MC that meticulously, from how the MC grew up implied. <<less

A cute story. Both the MC and ML are adorable. At first I thought the MC was a noble and elegant person but as the story progresses the little prince starts revealing his true nature - CUTE !!!!

About the MCs parent, I love how they didn't whitewash the king. In usual Danmei, the father regrets and then the family reconciles but here that's not the case

... more>>
Spoiler

so the gist is the mermaid princess comes onto the humanland to concieve a heir and ends up falling in love with the prince. Later the prince tells the princess that he will have a fake marriage with a noblewoman to inherit the throne but she will always be his first family and priority and asks her not to leave him. By this time liya (princess) had already laid a egg (yinuo) . So she is disgusted with him and breaks up. Panicked the prince steals the egg to have liya change her mind. This ends up in revealing the liya's identity as a mermaid and she captured by the prince's fiance. Liya escapes after killing the fiance but she had already been tortured and suffered from a huge wound on her tail. Later she falls into eternal sleep due to trauma

[collapse]

Spoiler

the prince finally regrets it and then enters into a contract (white) marriage with queen delan to exterminate his fiance's clan and raises the egg for 23yrs as a sideffect he often gets cold stomach and poor health. Unknown to him queen delan (liya's best friend) exchanges the egg when it was still 5yrs old. Liya had once told her that their were people who were hunting mermaids. Queen delan was worried that the hunter was actually the king. So she raises little yinuo in stead of liya

[collapse]

The king tries to blame queen delan for seperating him and yinuo. Yinuo cuts him off by saying that if it wasn't for him liya would never enter into coma. So he himself is to blame here

They don't reconcile till the end. Later liya wakes up but even she was quite annoyed with the king and let alone reconcile she dosen't even agree to meet him. The kings spends rest of his days in regret

About the royal family yinuo had three royal siblings.
Spoiler

the eldest princess :

She was born to queen delan but she has a different father, it's not the king. She flees away from the kingdom to become a star thief

The first prince and princess lily :

They were born from a one night stand. They don't have a close relationship with yinuo but still care about him as a family. The eldest prince wants to inherit the throne but later decides to become a idle prince because being a king is too troublesome. Princess lily wants to follow her mother's example and make a harem of handsome boys for herself (the fanfic author is her descendant) . She has face blindness and always ends up falling in love with yinuo at first sight only to be told that he is her brother.

Hiii guys, I'm the translator of this novel. I'd like to also leave a review cause why not ahh. This is a funny, feel good novel with a veryyyy cute MC. MC sometimes can act s*upid but he's still soooo precious and is smart too ahh. No real heavy plot, everything's fluffy and easily revolves so don't read this novel thinking we'll be reading something intense, no, it has very great world building and everything but it's very fluffy with no angst at all.

Also the ML is the biggest green... more>> flag ever. He actually participated in his chil'sd birth and later even. He loves his child too and doesn't think his child is a by-product or something. He actually cares unlike so many mls ughh.

I love Mc's and Ml's relationship with friends and family. They are all sooo good ahhh. Except from Scott, almost everyone has a brain and a heart and not maliciously bad.

Spoiler

I personally don't like Scott. He cheated on his wife, had was in 2 boats at the same time too and him being the reason why she was soooo severely injured so no, he doesn't deserve to have the son of his Li Ya whom he injured. And I'm fully on Yi Nuo side for not forgiving him as he was the reason why his mother was soooo severely injured. Also love Queen Delan for taking in Yi Nuo instead of letting that Scott take him cause one day Yi Nuo would know that he was the reason for his mother’s injury so its prevents unnecessary pain. Scott really loved Li Ya's kid only but none of his other kids really. Its like an obsession. Like you have so many children, be fair man!!!

A hilarious lovestory between a meraid prince MC and Major General ML

The Prince is ignored by Father king since born cause he thinks little prince isn't his son.

Little prince suddenly gets enlightened by plot God through a book and knows people and situations that he needed to deal with and take control of. ML can hear MC's thoughts (only his), and is fascinated by how the MC reads the smut book where ML and MC are continuously "playing". Eventually, the ML gets "affected" by the MC's inner monologue and is... more>> attracted to him

The plot is genuinely exhilarating. It doesn't disappoint because everyone gets HE (except for the mom Li Ya)

All in all, it's a good read <<less

MC and ML are very cute. They are hilarious.

Only thing that bother me is how the father was written and his ending.

Spoiler

I think Scott honestly did love the egg, he held it for 23 years and even ended up with stomach problem. He ending was kinda disturbing like the other review said.

I also dont agree with the part where the fake egg was broken and the author made that into a joke. Wasnt funny at all.

All the parts involving Scott was altogther very uncomfortable to read. His parts were very dark comedy.

MC is super cute and he sometimes comes into the most unexpected conclusions. ML is also cute and he's a whole green forest. The story wasn't heavy and enjoyable till the end. The families are all adorable (with the exception of Scott). I loved extras! But, there was the mind reading ability left unanswered. Why could ML read MC's mind? Is it the same reason as the cloud? Otherwise, it was pretty enjoyable!

Cute read to pass the time. Very fluffy and no angst. Misunderstandings are comedic and resolved very quickly and easily.

ML is a total green flag and dotes on MC. MC is a cutie coquettish tsundere. Their relationship progressed very quickly!

Binge reading this until I got crossed eyes. The story starts as confusing, with no background on aboslutely everything. Like how did MC suddenly becomes a mermaid. However, the loose ends slowly get wrapped up and the ending is perfect. Def a nice read!

I love slow burn so much but unfortunately this is not it. That didn’t mean I found this novel boring, because as much as I love slow burn, I love fast romance too.

Perfect length and not stretched out. I probably would have gotten bored of the chapters were 100+. This is a great, light-hearted, (and thankfully, completed) novel I’ve ever read in a while.

Pretty fun and cute story without being too s*upid. Although there are wars and some dogblood, the whole novel has a light and warm feeling.

The world building is OK. I like the whole setup, that they did not transmigrate but were led around by a "book from the future". Most novels, where MC learns that he might live in a book is using all the knowledge to scheme and gain power... our cute MC is still trying to find out what is true and what not and find... more>> the little historical parts between all the smut...

The side characters are not 2d but most are not fleshed out completely. It is enough to like our dislike them.

MC and ML are both likeable, not s*upid and have great interactions. There are a lot of misunderstandings at first but the "book" is solved about 50 chapters in.

If you are looking for deep scheeming and intrigue, move to another story. If you want a easy read, feeling wholesome and a bit fluffy without the braindead MC, this is it.

I would recommend to read. <<less

This is my favorite of all merman interstellar novels I've read so far. MC is cute and funny, sometimes a little silly but has strong learning ability hehe. While ML is green flag from start to finish. Their relationship is very cute and funny too.

When Yi Nuo realized the book was a fanfic I died laughing. All along he'd been deceived and Yue Zhan never did those things in their past life. In fact there's no past life at all. 😅 But fortunately it served as their matchmaker and also helped our silly Yi Nuo in other areas than the papapa so I guess all's well that well ? 😂

[collapse]

I also love the other side characters except the emperor. The other royal siblings were fun characters too. The extras were also really good ❤️ I'm so happy there's extras 😭. The secret of the mind-reading gets revealed in the extras too. I feel everything was tied up neatly. This novel is 10/10 for me with wholesome, cute couple and great characters. There are some fight moments but they're usually wrapped up quickly. So it's a mostly relaxing, fun and quick read. <<less

This is actually a really fun novel. I'm usually skeptical when is comes to mixing different ideas together, i.e. Mermaids and interstellar mecha fights, but the author makes it work.

Like most dog-blooded drama, most of the conflict comes from misunderstood intentions. Most of that misunderstandings are centered around MC and most of it is hilarious. It's not laugh-your-guts-out funny, but the humor is consistent to where you always have a smile on your face. But the real selling point when it comes to the misunderstandings is that the author... more>> doesn't make it feel like they're constantly beating a dead horse by telling the same joke. There's always progression in unraveling those misunderstandings until the truth is revealed.

MC themselves are fun. It actually feels like you're getting to know them. Their personality is that of a cat. They're a cat until you realize how silly they can be. And despite being silly, he's not in a constant state of needing to be taken care of. Yes, he plays mostly as a damsel in distress in most cases, but he's a damsel that will do his best to kick you in the nethers as you succeed and what are you going to do about it? He's hilarious.

ML is literally there because he's along for the ride. Like he got trapped in a whirlpool of MC's shenanigans. At first he tried to fight it, then got super invested, and got attached and will literally beat down anyone that dares to get caught in the same whirlpool. Like an aquatic ant lion.

The plot itself feels generic. A typical, 'oh no, a bad ending!' MC that wants to fight for his happy ending. But the mermaid aspect in the interstellar genre really makes this feel different from the other interstellar stories. New problems and new solutions. A different kind of flare. And the way the plot easily integrate mermaid problems feels smooth to where mermaids should always be part of the interstellar genre.

I do highly recommend and lots of live to the translators!! <<less

It was an okayy story for me. I didn't love it but didn't hate it either.

It was a lighthearted and with a comedic undertone. A bit of fluff oh and I loved MC's baby way more than the story.

Idk but it was too plain and there was no special elements in the story.

... more>> But it was just MC's father's ending disturbed me a bit, it was not to my liking.

MC was ok sweet and childish and a bit Chunniboy. And ML was good (an average ML like other stories) too.

I skipped quite a lot of chapters of the story may be a bit due to I finding it boring and long chapters as well as the transition not being completed, and I didn't liked the raws they were understandable but not enjoyable.

So, it deserves about 3.5 ⭐for me.

U guys could give it a try before skipping it, may be it could be ur cup of tea, so just don't skip a stop based on other people's opinion.

Anyway thanks author for hard work. <<less

I love it. I think the r*pe tag is referring to one episode of technical dubcon where the MC was drugged and entered estrus, but his being a mermaid is a big secret no one else can know about and technically he initiated it... although his consent does not count... but at least it won't be traumatic for him. I mean... its not actually okay, but it is sort of implied that leaving it alone is not an option and a partner must help him through it. The ML was... more>> basically the lesser evil in this scenario.

My favorite quote so far:

"Chasing a wife on the crematorium also depends on the situation. If you succeed in chasing the little prince back after torturing, forcing and imprisoning him... I honestly think he should see a psychiatrist. That is Stockholm syndrome, and he needs to be treated."

The author seems to have a relatively sensible outlook on what is and is not acceptable. Any actual noncon only happens in the book the prince is reading... so at least the ML has forced himself upon the MC <<less

**Spoiler Alert

There's romance, comedy, mermaids, zergs, royals and nobles, star thieves, fluff, comedy, mpreg, small cloud and cat... annnnddd did I say comedy?

Anyways, I laughed many times because of the yellow book and the ML's mind reading, I've never thought that these plot settings would be so PERFECT... I love how only the dirty thoughts were conveyed to the ML (in the beginning) and I LOVE how the ML was not disgusted being fantisized by the MC is such an erot*c novel-style detailed manner... instead he seemed to... more>> get used to it pretty fast (well not exactly, but he ain't against it either). Anyways, I just love this plot setting.

The MC is very lovable. At first, he seemed like an elegant and noble prince but as time goes by, he showed his true colors to the ML (by his thoughts) and believed himself as the only awakened son of the planes. I LAUGHED SO HARD AHAHAHAHAHA

Anyways, I love them. The only complicated part for me was the MC's parents' relationship. <<less

This was okay, it was cute, funny and sweet and every problem resolved itself rapidly. It's definitely a book to spread sugar and though a lot of things happen in the story, it passes quickly to move onto the next plot point.

I really like the relationship between the main characters though, they're both super green flags and complement each other well.
