Description

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

Kim Dokja does not consider himself the protagonist of his own life. Befitting the name his parents gave him, he is a solitary person whose sole hobby is reading web novels. For over a decade, he has lived vicariously through Yu Junghyeok, the main character of the web novel Three Ways to Survive the Apocalypse (TWSA).

Through Junghyeok, Dokja has experienced secondhand the trials of repeatedly regressing in time, in search of an end to life-threatening “scenarios” that force people to act out narratives for the amus**ent of god-like “Constellations.”

After reading 3,149 chapters—long after all other readers lost interest—Dokja finally resigns himself to the story ending. However, he receives an enigmatic message from the author, stating that the story will soon be monetized, before his surroundings suddenly go dark.

He swiftly realizes that fiction has become reality and he is now living through TWSA. Although he is the singular omniscient reader of the events yet to come, his success in the scenarios is not guaranteed—but perhaps his advantage will empower him to step into the protagonist role that never suited him before.

After reading this far & reading the reviews, I can understand the vast different pov of readers. There were times I felt intrigued with the plot, theories and characters, but there were also times when I felt like skipping, stopping or even dropping the novel. But one thing I won't forget is the moment that I've decided to continue reading this novel.

Most of the important explanations were given past the 300 chapters mark, which imo, explained those questions & frustrations raised by most of the readers who'd stopped reading early.... more>> No one should be forced into reading a novel with 500+ chapters which they're not interested in. However, calling this novel a plagiarism of many other similar theme novels is unjustified. Theme is the boundary that categories similarities. Parts that are similar, do not always mean that they are copies, at least, not for this novel.

***Below contains spoilers***

When passing the 150th chapter, I'm just like those unsatisfied readers. I had started questioning the purpose of the scenarios, the purpose of the characters and even the purpose of the plot. Is there even a meaning for this novel to exist? But after 400+ chapters, I realised that I was just like the characters in this novel, questioning the exact same thing, searching for the end even though knowing quite well that the end might not be what I desire. This feeling just gave me a sense of deja vu, as if I'm doing what I'm reading. The faint crossover of the world of the novel and my reality. I hate the theory of "all go 'round in a circle" which explains that there is no single point of beginning or end in the wheel of the universe. I feel suffocated when learning that everything is just going forth without a clear direction. Then what I've fought/worked so hard for, is there even a meaning to all I've done so far. And all these feelings and questions were written in this novel. And I share a surprisingly large proportion of understanding with the characters regarding the "end" despite the suffocating feelings still remained. The feeling as if I have gained the "omniscient reader viewpoint skill". This is why I feel a familiar yet strange attachment to this novel. Instead of bridging, for me, it's more like blurring the line between fiction and reality in my world, as if I was reading my world, which is precisely the plot of the novel. Yes, I hate explaining this in an endless loop too but there's no other better way of explaining this except for the reader to gain insight by themselves when they reached a certain degree of understanding.

Above is a long-ass paragraph of explaining the 1st point of my interest in this novel. 2nd point would be the "probability" used. Everything happens due to probability. If it had reached a threshold, then it occurred, otherwise it'll just continue raising its probability. It's like 2 sides of a coin. When you wish for the head, you'll keep throwing the coin until the "probability" of getting the head surpassed that of the tail. When this happened, it strengthened your belief, when in actuality, the probability of getting either a head or a tail is the same. When the repetition of coin throwings resulted in a surplus of "probability" in getting a head, you stopped throwing as this is the conclusion you desire. I really like this theory as if it's to mock most of the "facts" that we had learn so far, are they real or they are just an existence of probabilty, in our case, made/decided by humans. Where the truth lies?

3rd point is the characters. Many novels failed to explore the depth of the secondary charcters and often had forgotten about the "extras". This novel did a good job in giving the back stories and development for the characters other than the mcs. I like how the the MCs are divided into a reader, an author, and a character. This is new and fresh while the 3 of them got equal importance to the plot development. And also the novel showed some practical sides of characters like how selfish and greedy or coward they can be despite being the mcs.

Finally, there are some really good plots that are worth reading. 3 scenarios that I value are:

1. First scenario. It has some cliche parts like how participants are required to kill in order to live. And I've forseen the crazy humans massacre scene and also the utilisation of other organism. But one thing that interested me was how real that kdj intention was to not saving more people when he could have saved more.

2. The flag war (king of absolute throne). This scenario is interesting with the introduction of "prophet" and the planning and encounters with opponents.

3. Peaceland. I really like the idea of showing different pov of MCs and other extras. At the same time, giving more insight regarding the "disaster" and "outer gods/beings".

Despite the good points, the novel still can't escape from the cliches and plot holes. Like the parts I genuinely hate was the damsel-in-distressed plot where kdj was repeatedly being kidnapped/sacrificed, urging his companions to rescue him. Plus, the childhood of kdj is another big cliche. And just like other low ratings had mentioned, I'm disinterested in how the world seems to be revolving around the kdj (plot armour). However, we often forget that, if the coincidents and luck did not revolve around the MC, is he/she still considered as the MC, the centre of the novel? Most importantly, it is not how the MCs are standing in the limelight, but, if they make sense in that world. According to this novel's theme and genre plus the plot, it's acceptable and understandable. Just that, although I can understand, doesn't mean that I like them. Just like the subway line, it operates not to entertain, just that, it's needed for the world to function. Same concept, those blant repetitive scenarios and characters are needed for the plot. If these cliches are the foundation for the plots to progress, so be it. I still hate them tho, almost killing myself to read the repetitive fights between MCs and those stubborn & obsessive constellations.

So, it just comes down to the percentage of your liking. My opinions and review will definitely be biased as this novel has a special place in my heart. However, I have tried my best to be as objective as possible when writing this review. I personally think that this novel tied up its loose ends pretty good. The deprivation of momentum and ideas was evident at certain points where the scenarios seemed to be stretchy and abundant. I have even skipped to the last 2 chapters to have a read at the "epilogue". Although it seemed like another plot hole to me, but due to the nature of this novel, I understand why it had come to that conclusion.

Hope that this review will provide some helpful insight/info to potential readers who are deciding whether to pick up this novel or not, and for those who decide whether to complete the novel from where they'd stopped reading, and also for those readers who had finished reading the last chapter and are looking for some pov of other readers.

One particular quote from this novel that I favour is, "... Reading the same story again back from the start will allow a reader to experience a different understanding/interpretation of the very same story... although the words remained the same... The overlooked gaps, the overlooked characters, and the overlooked vision might surface with rereading... " <<less

I love this novel so much

The character development is on point, no romance, no harem, just some relationship that's not too much

Yes KDJ seems like he is just lucky, in truth he is actually smart and skilled to be able to do most stuff he need to do

... more>> Oh and also, if you think KDJ only can do something with the novel, think again. The novel is just there to help him and a lot of stuff rely more fo skill. I recommend reading till the end.

Coins give a big part even in the mid to end, seems not much but I mean, late game needs better skill

Less stat shown in late part because they want the reader aka us to try solve it ourselves

Antagonist hmmm, they're good enough to kill the co but kdj outsmart most of it

In a place where god-like constelation and imagination exist, will dead be the end? Probably not. It's a book, a book have end but not every story have the same end.

The restrictions is the point of the novel, they are in a scenario and must complete it. It's like a ticking bomb timer because most scenario have time limit.

For the ending and stuff, it's clear enough to understand <<less

The plot got too repetitive for my taste and too tiresome to read. The most common situation involved some prediction of the future in which the MC is gonna die. This happens several times during the middle section of the novel. One death prediction after another. Early on, MC gains the ability to come back to life. The consequence of death never seems present. He dies, comes back to life, and dies again. These scenarios occupy so much time yet the end result is always the same.

I won't say anything lengthy (?) as I just finished it just a few seconds ago so I'm still merely on the height if my emotions. I just felt kinda bummed on the people doing the review without even reading everything. How can you give a proper review when you don't even know the end? You can just say it isn't to your taste in some other platforms and not in the review section though it would be nice if they put an edited version of their comment after they... more>> read everything and they still don't like it then it's justifiable. But anyway, this novel just highlights what a reader really is, it might be one of my delusions in sympathizing a character from a story but I really liked the premise and the theme it gives us "readers" (especially the FOURTH WALL lol you get it?). It's a long read honestly and I don't see Kim Dokja as OP, if he is then things would be too simple, yes he did have advantages but it was later explained in the latter chapters about all the whys and hows and whos, it's kinda confusing towards the end and yeah some loopholes do exist.. But even so, it's still great fot me.. And I think the author wants us to utilize our imaginations to further complete this novel. Aaaand that's it. I love this novel. Give it a go, until the ending. <<less

Also the romance game sucks like I didnt expect anything. The cool and novel writing girl that MC meets got so popular author decided to off the author girl then girl our writer here intended MC to choose since chp 1, decided to send her into his brain where she will read his entire history cause the MC is too much of pu*sy to tell her his tragic past so she can be the ideal girl more than the novel author girl in story

A wholesome novel. The plot is surely something you will enjoy a lot. I will just say one word. Recursion.

Other than that, it's very pleasant to look how characters grow affectionate to each other and how hard it is for MC to keep up living in the world that he knows the end of. The relationships are well made and feel truly realistic. The growth of MC doesn't look like that of munchkin as he is not the main character of that world, even though he grows really fast.

The novel... more>> might get slightly boring in its later parts. The ending is something extremely simple and predictable, but at the same time shocking and puts you into confusion. Overall, it makes the story even better.

This one is certainly worth reading if you have a lot of spare time. Just be prepared for a lot of chapters. And some of them may be boring, but in the end you won't regret that. <<less

I dislike novel that went with time loop as a means to end things. It's a clusterf*ck with no clear end and beginning. I just read the last 100 chapters or so just to end the series, since I do like the other arc.

[collapse]

Overall it's a great story. It's not the deepest or profound, but it does have the right dose of action/adventure/friendship mix. I like how it incorporated various deities and legends. While reading, it feels like some deity/figure are stronger than they should be. I am not the type that fuss about power level too much, but I do wish there's more explanation why it feels like most deities power level feel stagnant before the MC start his adventure.

Like other Korean novel, there's no shortage of sasuga MC-sama moment. Thankfully the rest of the crew have their own mini arc and could contribute to the story.

Ignore negative reviews that didn't read at least past c200, because most of their complains (lack of foreshadowing, plot armor, characters without character etc.) are resolved, or largely reduced in the later chapters. I acknowledge some flaws of this novel, I also don't think it's the best one I've read, and I also think it's flawed, but despite this flaws, I've really, REALLY enjoyed it.

(All spoilers are marked, so don't worry about them)

First, I will start with some flaws.

I hate how this novel throws out some of the... more>> characters after their story arc has ended. They literally get pushed in the background and don't have almost anything to do. One of the examples is
Spoiler

MC's mother

[collapse]
, who when she was introduced was one of my favourite characters, but after her story arc has ended, she almost didn't appear at all. The novel later on acknowledges this problem, and explains why does it happen, but I don't really like that explanation.

Second is the lack of descriptions. I don't know if it's a common thing for all webnovels, or if it's just this one. (ORV is my first webnovel I've read). It annoyed me really much, especially when character's appearance isn't described, so I imagine hey my own way, and then 200 chapters later it says "she tied her ponytail".

Third is predictability of some events. Not all, most not actually. But after some time, when the situation is explained, you can predict what the MC is going to do. It isn't really that big of a flaw, because it doesn't happen many times, and usually even though you can predict it, it's hard to really predict how is he going to do it.

Fourth, DBZ syndrome of characters. Basically introducing too much characters, so that some of the old ones get forgotten. Kind of connected to the first point, but not really.

That's the more major flaws I have for this novel. There are more, but I don't really consider them that important. But before I start talking about good things, let's first refute some flaws other reviews have brought.

MC is overpowered - not really. He is, compared to normal person. He isn't compared to the world. He's not the only character who knows the future, he isn't the strongest and he most of the time starts fight at a disadvantage. But he often uses his brain to turn situation to his favor.

MC constantly asspulls - At the beginning (for about 100 chapters, maybe a little more, I don't remember which chapter was the
Spoiler

Sixth scenario arc

[collapse]
), solutions he uses to turn the table aren't foreshadowed, that's why people think it's an asspull, but later authors acknowledge their mistake and start foreshadowing it a bit earlier. Sometimes few chapters before, sometimes dozen chapters before.

Characters are cliche and thin as paper - That's kinda true, but also kind of not. Characters apart from few (
Spoiler

MC, second MC, Han Sooyung, Secretive Plotter, Bihyung, and possibly someone I forgot about

[collapse]
) rarely when get their story arcs. They do get it a few times, some develop, while some struggle to stay the same, some have complicated relationships with eachother, and some even straight-up change. But it doesn't happen that often, and even if it does. It's hard for me to think of a character that got more than three story arcs.

But while they don't really have their story arcs that much, they aren't really thin. People think that way because of low amount of exposition. And most of the cliche characters actually have something more going in their head, you just sadly don't get to read about it that often.

Okay, now we can finally talk about positives. And boy, there's lot of them.

First of all, plot twists. They are amazing. After reading you can tell they've been planned from the first chapter. They're really hard to predict (although not impossible), and they've been foreshadowed earlier. Some even straight-up from beginning. I absolutely love them.

Second, (major spoilers)
Spoiler

fourth wall breaks. I won't really explain it, cuz people afraid of spoilers won't even read this, but I'll say one thing. The fourth-wall breaks are really, really well done and amazing. The ending basically implies that you may be MC and not even know it. It's awesome.

[collapse]

Third, ending. I can't really explain anything because spoilers, but the ending is one of the best endings to a story I've ever seen.

Fourth, the action rarely when slows down. It does, but it isn't like in normal books, mangas or anime, where after every major arc you get a little break, foreshadowing into next arc, introducing etc. Here, it goes like this: major story arc ends, the epilogue of the arc immediately starts the next one, and without slowing down you're constantly moivng through the plot. That's actually part of the reason why other characters rarely get story arc, it's because the plot is constantly moving.

I could go on and on about why I love this novel so much, but this review is already quite long, and I wrote it mainly to encourage other people to read it, not to express my own thoughts and feelings about it. <<less

Not the most original concept, but well executed, to the point that the negatives almost feel like "not a bug, but a feature".

I enjoyed the meta theme, the word building again isn't something new but it's still cool, the plot comes together well and there aren't major loose ends, the ending is satisfying, the characters all have a reasonable depth and growth.

Overall the writing, characters, plot, wordbuilding, pacing I would say amount to a 4.5/5, they are great but not amazing; alas I'm not a critic so I'll just rate... more>> it based on my enjoyment which was 5/5, this novel messed up my sleep schedule. Would recommend. <<less

Hmmm how to elaborate this. It's like..... you know how shounen MCs tend to go out of his way to try saving everyone even at the expense of them and their friends potentially being in danger? This MC does not do that nor does he allow himself to get used. The subway arc is an example of that.

I have to say for a 551 chapters I actually for the first time read till the end without stopping. Even went sleepless at one point.

It's such a rich story. You have fantasy, action, bonds, some cool twist, and yes there are plotting armors but there's still something very pulling about it.

Each characters don't just there for the sake of stereotypes but they become a part of the story.

And sure there are cliches but which stories doesn't? The authors (married couple) did a great job in making everything vibrant in... more>> the story progression and characters.

Though arguably it is kinda hard to understand at the reveal of the climax since there's a lot going on. I thoroughly enjoy it.

Minor spoiler, there's two main focus characters at the beginning. The MC (reader) and the OriMC (the character). MC along with everyone in the planet got dragged into a story scenario. From there the MC somehow manage to get through. He had some allies and eventually aggro the OriMC. OriMC appear as the most anti-hero protagonist while the MC is like a selfless protagonist but only to a degree. A huge mystery involves on why the world is as it is and who is responsible behind it.

MC isn't strong like the OriMC in fact he chose to choose the hard road just to get what he desired. I really like how far he became and the bonds he created. The whole story is like a story within a story I find it fascinating.

I highly recommend this. <<less

for me, it is one of the best apocalypse stories written out there. Some pros: 1) the MC isnt invincible, he isnt op like MCs in other stories, he was a reader at first, and he doesnt have talent for learning skills. He grows his strength gradually. 2) content is very deep. Talks about psychological stuff. It's a pity that some readers dont understand. 3) it's admirable how much effort the author must have spent on organizing all the info. There arent any plotholes that I can see, which is... more>> great for such a long novel. 4) the story keeps you captivated, im on 330 or so chapters, and I have not thought of abandoning this novel.

This novel really surprised me. I came from the manhwa which was really fun, and was sincerely surprised by the depth and realism this novel had despite the fantasy genre. The characters are all very engaging including our protagonist, and they feel very tenderly built.

Started off good but became kind of mediocre. (The first 200 chapters is the best part of the story.)

Here were My main problems:

  • The MC straight up went from a calculating person who tried to use everything to survive to a normal beta nice-guy. I felt weird because I really did enjoy the MC in the begining. There was also the fact that NONE of the MC's plans ever failed? Because realistically in a world like this you there is always a huge change of you losing everything and your plan failing. But it never felt like that here. The MC and his group basically breezed though everything until the end.
  • The forced drama of "The original protagonist hates the protagonist and tries to kill him but actually loves him" and Yoo Jounghuk (The Orginial Novel Protagonist) in general. Yoo Jounghuk is like that edgy teenager in school that you would be friends with because you felt sorry for him.
  • There are a lot of abnormally forced cliffhangers, where the author leaves out information when it would be naturally revealed. At least create an excuse for the cliffhanger instead of yanking descriptions out from where they should be.
  • The epilouge. Here is where I go into spoliers:
    Spoiler

    Basically, at the end if the novel, The main character sacrifices himself for his team mates. I was legitimately surprised at this twist as not a lot of authors are willing to kill-off their main character. The problem I had is that in the epilouge the authors basically made a way to bring him back and that is what the characters are going to do. This personally felt like a slap in the face. Because why kill off your characters if you are going to bring them back? I really liked the ending and the epilogue was straight up the authors retconning the ending which I personally really hated.

The reason I'm rating this three stars is because I don't believe that this novel deserves a 4.4. It deserves more of a 3.7 in my opinion. This has reread value though, I would rather read this than one of those terrible Chinese novels.

So Basically:

1-200 were definitely the best parts of the novel (at least in my opinion).

201-300 was when I could see a little quality drop but it wasn't that bad.

301-400 were a chore to read, but it was alright, I guess. At this part the novel felt like a slog and the banter isn't all that fun. It was basically Yoo Jounghuk wanting to kill the MC and loving him. Rinse and Repeat.

401-516 was when the novel got interesting enough for me to not drop it, but it wasn't as good as 1-300. The last 10 or so chapters were really good though, the authors really did something unexpected which I found pretty impressive. As not a lot of authors would be willing to do the same thing.

517-551 these were the epilogue chapters, and this was the part of the novel I really hated. It legitimately felt like a slap to the face. It was basically the authors backtracking the ending/basically them reversing the decision that they made at the end of the main story. It really rubbed me the wrong way since I personally really loved the ending to the main story.
