I Decided to Not Compete and Quietly Create Dolls Instead

Description

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

Apparently, this looks like the fantasy world from the Otome game that I used to play in my previous life. “I”, Altrea, am the lively rival character who challenged the heroine again and again until she/I received painful backlashes.

Like only chasing to have the engagement canceled in the Magic Academy, even breaking and taking over the Duke’s house. For all this eventful stuff, please just give me a break! Or should I say the heart of the game’s heroine is too scarily impregnable! Living differently with the game’s knowledge? Dating the love interests in real life is super troublesome, so I refuse!

And so my main priority is to definitely not get involved. I will absolutely not go to that academy. I will go to a different country. Living as a Magic Doll Master in a new land is the best way to live.

Eh- The Mystic-eyed Doll Princess? Queen Mage of the Netherworld? Even though I seriously tried my best, I have changed class into the last boss. Why!?

Wait for a second, It’s a misunderstanding! Stop, forgive me-.

While I really liked the first half of the story, the end was not what I expected. It went for a super weird turn, so I can't give the series a good score, but the first half was fun to read, so it gets a 3.

I'm giving this a four star review purely because of how interesting the dolls are -- that's it.

The plot is definitely different from the usual "reincarnated villainess" story, which gives a fresh new idea for this category and I don't mind how the world building lacks details. But, sad to say that the MC is not at all that intriguing, honestly.

The MC is normal, sure, with a bit of self conscious issues that any person can relate to, however, that's about it. Like other people have said in their review,... more>> I agree that the MC lacks a quirk to make her likeable as a protagonist. Also, the way the author writes the story by jumping from one event to another and only gives out necessary information to why she has this and can do that, doesn't help make her character all the more likeable from the way it's been written, it think.

However, the one thing that does capture your attention throughout reading this are her dolls. They're more interesting than the MC or the "capture targets". I'm more interested to their character development rather than the MC's.

Honestly, they're really cute and would recommend this only for the dolls. <<less

Pretty common beginning, but the story is really interesting, I like how the MC is clueless about her OPness, and how cute she is yet brave but not s*upid, im really looking forward to the next chapter. Sadly the update take forever T.T

An interesting concept which could have been further elaborated, however, the author fell short overcomplicating the plot leaving it appearing rushed
Spoiler

- when they actually spend years on it -

and unfinished.

It is in reality completed and a little messy but worth a peruse.

Spoiler

WARNING - Though it is tagged as such it generally doesn't stick to the traditional tropes associated with tags and thus may lead to disappointment if the reader is expecting a true isekai, or otome game feel.

I really like the story, it's very interesting. The author and translator is doing a really good job, keep up the good work! (When you have time available.) Do not push yourself too hard, I know we all have our own lives outside of reading & writing stories.

Putting that aside. I would like to note one thing, in Volume 1 chapter 12 part 3. I noticed you used the term "Visual interference magic"... That is obviously just illusion magic. Lol. You don't need to be complicated, call it... more>> like it is. I prefer just being literal in meaning for words. Lol. <<less

Being male I know I'm not a target audience of a shoujo novel, but I had hopes I'd at least find it interesting up to some point. The point is about chapter 5. I was able to read seriously till chapter 10 and skimmed through a dozen more of chapters. Well, sue me for not noticing Slice of Life tag. Slice of Life rarely has interesting world, adventure and typically no plot at all - there's just nothing that could had kept me interested. I'm not rating it since it's... more>> my fault, but imo it deserves about 2 stars. <<less

I love how Alty is friends with the dolls. No matter the plot for the otome game doesn't continue, it still progress on alty's path to become a doll maker.

Its cute and adorable to see her being dense about other ppl. I can expect more of this novel.?

I've finished reading this novel on Syosetu, and... yeah.

... more>>

... it's weird as heck.

Have you ever feel like reading story where the end is actually not an ending? Yup, that's it.

Instead of 70-ish chapter, this novel should have prolonged the later arc (ch50++) and retell everything with slower pace, maybe until ch100 or something. The later part seems rushed... no, scrap that. It's indeed rushed too fast that it left bad aftertaste on the reader.

And the worst thing is, that later arc is actually the best part of this novel because it can be called a "Revelation Arc", yet author just went "hah let's shorten it into mere 20 chapters" instead of explaining the details and preparing a proper worldbuilding for the next 50++ chapters.

....... I still can't get rid the bad aftertaste eugh... How do you remove your rating for this novel?

One part of me want to give 5 stars but that ending just dropped my mood. <<less
