Description

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

A lightning strike transmigrated Zu An into another world. In that world, he was known as the tr*sh of Brightmoon City, but for some reason, he was married to the gorgeous and highly talented daughter of the Chu clan?

What? I’m a transmigrator but I don’t have any talent for cultivation? Why are there so many people out for my life? And most importantly of all, how in the world did I get on the bed of my sister-in-law on my wedding night?!

It was a nightmarish starting point for Zu An, but fortunately, as a famed keyboard warrior in his previous life, the world gave him a keyboard in this life too so that he could turn things around. Through his trolling and flaming, he shall stand atop the corpses of his burned enemies and rise to the top of the world!

I almost dropped this many times because, to be honest, it was riddled with many issues

HOWEVER it was just too damn funny and entertaining, I really like the MC f*ck all attitude and not taking cultivation too seriously. I'm tired of cultivation story where the MC is just a cultivation machine and goes into too much detail about every single little thing. In this novel, the story focused more on the interaction of characters and factions, basically politics full of interesting characters that have their own agenda, they all trying... more>> to outwit each other with schemes instead of just skinner box RPG grinding of beating monster and get exp for level up and repeat.

Strength still matter, after all, might make right but even the strongest character (at the current moment, idk when he will get power crept or if the MC will ever leave the current place to go to a higher realm or other bullshit) in the story is tied by rules and have to play along because his power is not absolute so the story becomes a lot more dynamic and fun than just people throwing punches at each other and see whose fist is harder.

In a lot of ways, this reminds me a lot of Against The Gods (big harem and a lot of chasing skirt, often times the MC is weaker than the girls but then it will flip later) but although they are similar their strength and weakness are the exact opposite. In ATG the cultivation is a lot more fleshed out and the MC progression makes more sense while in KI cultivation is just the vehicle to progress the story and the characters and the politic is the focus of the story so it is way better than ATG where in most cases everything is black or white and the MC is never wrong and most conflict is just people throwing punches at each other and sees whose fist is stronger then if the MC lost he will barely live and escape then came back stronger and he will find new stronger enemies that are evil and rinse and repeat. <<less

pretty girl get tricked by some bad guys to consume aphrodisiac, MC luckily was there to pick her and run then get some f*cks.

repeat the above plot, MC/pretty girls keep being tricked to drink aphrodisiac every single time.

[collapse]

this author has a huge mental problem, both of his novels repeat the same above plot. Skip all those garbage chaps then this novel is passable.

It was a very good read at first but I dropped around 500ish. The novel went downhill real fast after the MC unseal his D and it went straight from a troll novel to a pure harem one. Its kinda cringe as every girls that the MC meet for the first time ended up falling for him with the same reason "he is unlike other man".

One of the thing that I think the author f*cked up was touching taboo relationship, lad srsly almost f*cked his mother in law smh.

The first 200~ or so chapters were great but it just starts going downhill from there.

The MC is (a) impotent due to a magic seal, (b) is stuck in a marriage of convenience with a cold woman and (c) has a "system" that gives him points whenever he gets people angry.

He pissed people off in various different ways, including flirting with the beautiful women he meets. This upsets them and all the people around him. He also misrepresents his relationship with them as being romantic to upset everyone, a... more>> refreshing contrast to a normal MC who with try and clear up the misunderstandings.

This was all really fun to read.

However, later on, he removes the magic seal and also gets his wife to fall in love with him. At that point he starts perving all the girls around him instead of just flirting, all the other girls start to fall for him for real, any new girls fall for him instantly too.

He also starts cheating on his wife while denying it and proclaiming that "she is the only one for him", despite him being open about it before.

He also NTRs another man's fiance. In fact, despite all the other girls, he's only slept with three of them. His wife (less than a dozen times), his wife's maid (only once under drugs) and the other man's fiance (at least a few dozen times). It's pretty obvious the author has an NTR fetish and is just writing out his fantasies at this point.

Check out @kkgoh review for more details. Looks like he dropped it around the same time as me. <<less

One of the novels where ML keeps saying "I need to keep a low profile" and goes and does something s*upid. WN writers think that their readers are s*upid and cannot remember stuff from just couple of chapters ago. My patience ran out in the last arc. It seems the writer ran out of ideas and kept adding things just to add to mayhem. Fight after fight after fight. It is just endless.

This novel obviously isn't for everyone, but if it is for you, then you'll 100% love it. I would rate the first roughly 300 chapters 5 stars. After that, it starts to go downhill. I don't think that the chapters after 300 are written badly, but it doesn't feel like they fit in with the story. For me, Keyboard Immortal is supposed to be a light comedy novel that you can relax and enjoy without thinking too much. That's exactly what it is for the first 300 chapters, but it... more>> changed a LOT in the chapters after 300. A lot of people felt that the story was too slow paced. For me though it got too fast. The romance progresses way too fast. The heroines go from indifference to pretty much f*cking Zu An. It makes no sense. It becomes way too frequent and just gets annoying. It just doesn't fit in with their personalities.

This novel is probably the most hilarious novel I've read on here though. I would highly recommend the first 300 chapters. <<less

Caught up to the machine translations.

I really liked the novel at the beginning. It was comedic and honestly great entertainment.

I couldn't resist so I went to machine translation, (which by the way, is probably one of the best ML I've seem in my life).

Here's a spoiler for something I dislike. Everything was okay but overall I feel a drop of quality.

... more>>
Spoiler

Author replicated the dungeon trial scene. He made Zu An live like 50 years in the trial... Like bro I don't give a crap about this. It would've been fine if this didn't take 50 chapters along the way but it did. This trial drove me nuts. He went into some kind of illusion for 50 years to get some kind of supreme manual...

I'll keep this updated...

4/5 <<less

This story is just my cup of tea, self aware cultivation novel with lots of loud laughing from me. I enjoy stories where there is lots of dialog and less detailed explanation. Because I can ENVISION the actual fighting myself.

It's funny. It made me laugh a lot.

The translation is done by wuxiaworld, so it's decent.

These reasons made me give this novel 4 stars, though this might be a biased and overrated review.

... more>> There are quite a few problems with this novel.

As someone already mentioned, this novel is supposed to be like a gag manga.. So if you take anything, ANYTHING at all about it seriously, then you're definitely gonna rate it as a terrible novel.

Why?

The basic premise of the story is in itself a gag. A keyboard warrior (troll) get struck by lightning and transmigrates to a cultivation world with a 'keyboard' system.

The rest of my evaluation contains spoilers

Spoiler

The MC is way too forgiving towards his wife's family members especially his mother in law and sister in law.

The sister-in-law's actions are similar to Dugu Xiaoyi from otherworldly evil monarch. She's a bully, through and through. Pampered brat to be exact. The actions that the author glosses over as an act of innocence or cute pranks are truly atrocious. She deserves a good beating though she's less irritating than annoying young masters or young miss' who are way to prideful and treat people from lower clans or commoners as ants. A guy from another clan who used to be bullied by her exacts revenge upon her during a match, but the MC cripples him. The girl has always been nice to him, at least compared to the rest of the family. So somehow we just brush this off.

The nagging mother in law is a annoying af. She's emotional and s*upid. No man could stand how she acts. The MC's reaction towards her verbal abuse is really hard to swallow considering how decisive he can be at times. He even tried to kill Snow with his dagger at least once. So it's not that he can't be ruthless towards women either. It's just the author giving him a character that's not stable. Sometimes we see him almost exploding towards the mother in law's abuse. Later the author justifies his timidness to the lack of human rights in the society as he's a 'drafted son-in-law'. So his timid actions 'naturally' converts to 'wise' and 'thoughtful' actions.

The author tends to abuse the words prodigy, genius, dashing, etc etc a lot, just like other cultivation novels. But he makes it funny at times, though most of these events seem 'similar' to what we have seen in way too many novels. So it feels unoriginal even when it's funny.

Now another thing I hate about this story is how the MC only ever gets a girls through accidents. He can't even sleep with his wife properly. The author needs ridiculous excuses like treatment for life threatening situations using 'essence' or woman who might die due to aphrodisiac etc etc to get the girl into the MC's harem.

Since this is a gag manga, I really shouldn't stress this.. But I really feel like I should say this. The cultivation system is absolute tr*sh. It's not systematic or well thought out.

The world building is terrible as well.

The author makes the rune masters a replacement for scientists and makes them responsible for bringing modern scientific inventions into cultivation world.

It is a great comedy novel. There is plot, harem in the making (large), and an interesting cast of characters. So far the story is a breath of fresh air and something I would recommend.

The only downside is that MC seems to make similar mistakes a couple of times even though there are people who warn him about it already. Some of that is needed for the comedy so for me, it is a minor thing. His attitude of dealing with some problems until the last moment can get annoying... more>> at some points.

Overall it is good a read and an interesting cultivation novel give it a go it will make you laugh. The translation managed to keep the comedy flow well with the story. (4.6 rating) <<less

☆☆☆☆ - 4.6 thus far

Shameless - Like Bai Xiaochun (AWE) or Meng Hao (ISSTH), this guy becomes more and more shameless in his own way, mooching off the backs of women, even though he has his own aptitude.

The premise was hard to accept at first, however, it grows on you and it picks up much faster around CH 30.

Some reviews are saying it's not funny, but I literally LOL'd in real-life a few times. The women are capable and interesting enough to make you want to play sides, but... more>> unfortunately are described as overly beautiful too often. <<less

Personally speaking, I find this novel quite entertaining (for now atleast). It does have it's frustrating moments, but the comedy comes back in a few chapters and makes it light again. I'm not familiar with Chinese comedies, so this feels new to me.

There is a fanfiction that uses a similar system to earn rage points, except it was poorly executed.

Keyboard Immortal has face slapping elements and angering people with words, the cultivation is still quite low. Maybe it has to do with the protagonist being in a small town.

The story has many funny moments that will have you grinning from ear to ear

The translation done by Starvecleric is not bad, but the grammar needs a closer look. It is either missing words or their incorrect use.

satirical novel. The special ability, so to speak, is to troll others and get points that can be used by the MC to obtain rewards.

The quality of translation is also pretty good so far, no complains there.

Banged through this in 2weeks, so addiction factor is there.

Simply put there’s a lot of good payouts and the plots are more complex than other novels in these genres.

Cons are that there’s like 5dialogue in a chapter and the rest is what the characters are thinking after each word. This becomes boring at some point, so I personally started just reading the dialogue boxes only or skipping that chapter all together.

As terms of cultivation complexity this is more like a soap comedy than cultivation. Some stuff is almost s*upidly uncomplex.... more>> For example pill refining here is... we know only one, one other pill refiner in the whole world apart from MC. Makes zero sense, but after reading a lot of these I almost prefer this compared to mandatory pill refining tournament every other chapter.

The novel beats 80% of books in the genre at least. The slow pace in some chapters will be your biggest issue with some of the chapters being mothing else but people saying goodbyes as MC leaves for the next area <<less

The novel starts with a bang but then wents down hill once it crosses 150+ chapters. I gave it another 100 chapter thinking ut will get good again but disappointed. Initially MC gave an impression of truly smart and intelligent but then suddenly turned to a ret*rded kid.

Fights are boring. And the gag is really good at the beginning but then loses its charm and is no longer fun.

The storyline too becomes repetitive and apat from a few characters the rest are bland. The Harem too is dissapointing as in... more>> case of most xianxia novels.

Writing : 4/5

Story (concept) : 4/5

Characters : 1/5

World Development : 0/5 = 0

MC : 2/5

Update stabilty : 4.5/5

Plot armor : -5/5 (THICC)

s*x scene : 2/5

Overall - 2* <<less

Liked the start of the novel in which the MC makes his harem slowly and also the same with his strength. but after he got exposed for having the cultivation that the emperor wants, it just went down hill from there... MC makes s*upid decisions even though he was portrayed as smart before. new harem members are shallow and makes no addition to the plot in any way. the comedy became boring as it didn't change much.

I will read further but as of chap 500~ it's not looking too hot.

I wanted to like this, but the biggest problem of this novel is how forced the plots are, and the illogicalness of the character decisions in this book. Though it is also a harem story, so it isn't a big surprise considering most harem stories are generally written bad. I wanted to keep reading to find out MCs true back story and the chu clan, but I gave up. I got too fed up with every character in this novel

Seems like your typical cultivation novel, except that MC is the biggest shit-stirrer. Strong point is comedy and whilst the MC is shameless and sharp-tongued, he is cunning and exceeds at trolling others.

Be warned though, whilst the early sections story was essentially a satirical cultivation story, it has slowly dropped in quality and has become a parody of itself. MC becomes a caricature of himself, becoming more and more impulsive, lustful and idiotic. Everything that happens you can find in other standard cultivation novels. Jade beauties, potential betrayal at every... more>> corner, nearly every male character hates him and every female character loves him... etc. Not to mention the obvious plot armor as he takes on more challenging opponents but still stays around the same power level. <<less
