I Became The Academy’s Narrow-Eyes

Description

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

I saw a narrow-eyed character in an anime, and I felt obsessed.
So I made a narrow-eyed character in a game, and then I possessed it.

“Haha, this is embarrassing.”

Hi! I'm the translator for this series and since the original description doesn't say anything as always I'm gonna add a bit to it.

The novel currently has over 3.7 m views and 263k likes on novelpia giving it a rank 1 in top 100 in last 30 days.

The idea behind isn't really anything new. The MC gets too into a narrow-eyed character concept and decides to make a character in role play focused game he never completed. Then spends a bit too much time on customization and gets isekai'ed. Gets... more>> into the academy, meets heroines, etc... hilarity ensues.

Overall fun action comedy with a harem. Decent humor, likeable heroines and OP MC hiding his powers (kinda), so if you like a typical academy novel that's really well writen then it's for you. Just a good read overall. <<less

Ok... First of all be prepared for this

It's a 'I'm hiding my powers but secretly the strongest' plot, but it's one where everybody is just kinda of an idiot...

Every time a new character meets MC get ready for an inner monologue of 'Look at those s*upid foolish half closed eyes, that man with his s*upid attitude and s*upid idiotic smile, he looks so weak and s*upid, no way he'll do better than me on this test for he is s*upid s*upid s*upid' on endless repeat....

Afterwards MC does better, other character... more>> (a beautiful female with some sort of new hair color variation obviously) gets half a chapter of 'could the unbelievably s*upid looking guy with s*upid half closed eyes actually be strong?' but by the end somehow convince themselves it was a mistake, because no way such a s*upid looking guy is strong right????? Though she will immediately join his harem after thinking all that obviously!!!!

If you're somehow into this annoying recurring comedy bit than... There's some enjoyment to be had with this one I guess?...

Another problem is the plot structure, like Reio's review said the 1 day entrance exam is wayyy too long (40+ chapters). It's ridiculous how many character introductions and inner monologues we get in one day of these people's life. What's there isn't terrible but could be structured better had it been spaced out in a realistic way.

Also MC is just kinda of a weirdo who likes to hide his power for teasing people (well, woman really since those are the only real characters besides MC in this). There's no real plans or goal, this is literally the only thing he wants up to c40. <<less

As much as I like narrow eyed characters this novel disappointed me.

Character wise or power systems were okay. The problem was the the writing style and pacing.

40+ chapters all in the same day period and still in the entrance exam for the academy... entrance exam.. I get the need of time to explain all the world settings and personalities of characters, but do I need 2 full chapters of one harem member in her own inner monologue and apologetic speach??

A bunch of harem members being introduced all in one day... more>> again! With nonsensical dialogue and unexplained romantic attraction to MC! All in the same day?!

It was a boring read. <<less

Translation is terrible, and the story is disappointing, including all the personalities I hate the most: tsunderes, arrogant people, and misunderstanding (people?). Everything is treated as a joke, which I get is supposed to be the narrow-eyed trope, but I was under the impression narrow-eyed characters were badass. Anyway, the joking is annoying and everyone treats the MC like shit, which I hate, I don’t get why hated protagonists are so popular, the Koreans and Japanese must be super masochists, as well as the readers. He talks about hiding his... more>> power, but as usual, he just stands out a lot, which makes no sense. All in all just a pretty shitty and underwhelming novel. <<less

Ain't no way, I was just goofing around and thinking of some of my favorite narrowed eyed characters and decided yeah, I want to find a novel or manga with narrowed eyed protagonists, and here I found one instantly, with a recent update, ain't no way man.

I'm also very obsessed with these narrowed-eyed characters, especially the ones emitting a melancholic aura of tragedy yet with a warm aura which makes you cry for some reason whenever you see him/her, and oh my god, when they speak very gentle and lightly... more>> I just peak, and when slightly open their eyes, I just oh. My. Good. Graciousness. <<less

I think most people will either really hate or really enjoy this. Most of the characters have very straightforward personalities and the MC takes advantage of this to tease them a lot. I personally find it hilarious.

I did notice a few translation issues with incorrect gender pronouns, but it was very infrequent. I can only remember noticing it in one chapter, but if I only noticed it once, then it probably happened a few more times that I missed.

I really enjoy the main character of this one so far. It’s a little early but his teasing carefree demeanor is great. I enjoy the humor so far, all in all it’s a promising start with interesting characters.
