The Ancient Mermaid Transmigrated to the Interstellar

Description

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

After his accidental death, Ji Mingjiang woke up again and found himself a deep-sea mermaid with amazing fighting power. Through a period of half-month worth of effort, the powerful Ji Mingjiang finally became the deep-sea overlord who tore the giant squid’s tentacle with his bare hands and slapped the great white shark with his tail.

Unexpectedly, when he woke up again, he transmigrated for the second time from the ancient age to the interstellar era.

Without having the chance to bid farewell to his subordinates, Ji-former-overlord-Mingjiang who has lost his territory again, really wanted to destroy the dog system : )

After getting in touch with a few mermaids from this era, Ji Mingjiang discovered in despair: Mermaids, a race that was once hailed as the overlord of the deep sea, have now become pets that are weaker than cats and dogs and are warmly praised by the keepers for being able to swim two laps in the sea every day.

Ji Mingjiang, who doesn’t want to face reality: Don’t look at me like that again! ! !

Fortunately, before he was about to be driven crazy by the meticulous care around him, an eccentric man picked him up.

After finally not having to face the keeper’s exaggerated praise all day long, Ji Mingjiang felt that this overly pampering attitude was definitely not suitable for the growth of a creature like a mermaid. To change this deeply rooted view that came from nowhere, Ji Mingjiang decided to start with himself after much thought. So he turned on the live broadcast, trying to prove that the mermaid race is really not that fragile, and then…

Ji Mingjiang swam in the water at high speed for over an hour in an attempt to prove that mermaids have really good endurance.

Barrage: “My God, the cub is suffering; how is his tail?”

Ji Mingjiang turned on the live broadcast during lunch, trying to prove that the mermaid’s appetite is really not small by eating five bowls of rice in one sitting.

Barrage: “It’s fine if Leiden doesn’t give you fish, but how can he force you to eat so much? Does he think everyone can eat like him!”

After finding that the previous live broadcasts were ineffective, Ji Mingjiang decided to make a bold move. He turned on the live broadcast during his daily sparring with Leiden, trying to prove that the mermaid’s fighting power is really strong.

Barrage: “Call the police; even if it’s His Majesty, it’s illegal to abuse mermaids!”

At first I thought I already read this because it was so familiar, then something happened that was new so I assumed that particular moment was just similar.

No.

I have never seen a novel that so heavily copied from other stories, not only ideas but straight up whole situations and plot points. I spotted at least three different novels they have copied from, and I've only read around 40 chapters. If I could remember the titles, I might have contacted the original writers to make them aware of this.

It's no wonder... more>> that the story is so mismatched and makes limited sense, the writer blatantly copied everything they liked from other authors to assemble whatever the hell this was supposed to be.

To give you a rough idea: Interstellar setting, people have mental power, a xianxia sea of consciousness, need mental counselling similar to esper/guide settings, and people are spiritual beastmen... but not really, because the beast basically lives in their sea of consciousness and isn't really them, it seems to be more a form of possession, or maybe it isn't, no one knows because it changes several times throughout the story.
Then you have mermaids, space dragons (yes, space. dragons.), mechas, wars and conspiracies, military operations, cartoon villains, virtual (mecha) fights with rules that keep changing whenever MC needs to be OP...

That should be enough to show what "mismatched" means in this case.

Characterization is very poor as well, it shifts around, is full of inconsistencies, and half of the characters seem to be mentally disadvantaged.
Everything the writer didn't copy shows why they had to do it in the first place – they are bad at writing.
They are even bad at copying, because what they copied doesn't work together. At all.

One star is still too much for this. <<less

MC dominating the ocean floor was a two week trial period from the system and more interesting than the "official" transmigration. Though MC being an op merman with super strength and speed was interesting, I liked how he kicked the villains' asses, but the rest of the story was a little... dull. It didn't really go anywhere. There were parts of the story I didn't like. Like ... more>>
Spoiler

The fact that Ml's adopted older merman brother was tortured and held captive for 10 years and it only took MC and ML a short while to rescue him was (ノಠ益ಠ) ノ彡┻━┻ and that was where ML had suspicions but no credible proof. Since ML is known to be a bloodthirsty lord, him not doing anything but search for proof is the opposite of that description. I'd expected him to infiltrate and torture. Plus no romance til MC officially turns 18 which was 2 years away in the story and put in the extras. The romance was meh but I did like how there was no clear cut traits that showed who was the bottom and who was the top. MC was quite powerful, beating ML in a holo mecha fight. 🤣

Anyways, this review is more for my record than anything else. Though the premise was promising, the story was tepid. Finished it in mtl but would not re-read it again <<less

The translator did a good job. I just want to say that up front, and it's why this review got two stars instead of one. It would have been three if they hadn't used the phrase 'made him can't help but...'. This is grammatical nonsense in English. It doesn't work. Unfortunately, the author... did not do a good job at all. A lot of this story's plot concepts are identical to other stories by other authors, as has been mentioned before in the reviews. The average npc intelligence is extremely... more>> low, with blatantly obvious things being 'somehow never noticed', but to be blunt, the pc intelligence isn't much better. It's a very bland candy novel, with no substantive content. I strongly suspect that the author is very young, possibly early teens, and poorly educated. I wanted to beat some brains into them from the start, where they had humpback whales who lived almost exclusively at extreme depths in the ocean, didn't need to surface for air, and apparently eat squid. There's slight relief at one point, where at least one of the whales is called a sperm whale... but I suspect it was the translator's typo. At least sperm whales actually DO eat squid. The 'bad guys' (I can't even bring myself to call them villains) are so incompetent and s*upid that in anything approaching a believable portrayal... they'd have choked to death on their thumbs at an early age. I made it all the way through because it's so simplistic that skimming is all that's necessary. <<less

its not a slow romance but actually it deserves a romantic subplot tag-so I added it. Im not sure why it hasn't been mentioned by anyone but the romance here seems forced or nonexistent. Like yeah, we always knew who the ML is but there wasn't really any romantic development mentioned throughout the story. Then out of nowhere right after MC turns 18 ML discovers feelings and so does MC and they get together simply after. I think the author had ideas of multiple elements they wanted to add... more>> to the story but didn't know how to make it properly flow and expound on each element well. After looking back to the whole story it feels poorly put together... considering how a big part of the novel was supposed to be changing the perspective of humans and even mermaids themselves into understanding the true capability of the mermaids. You would think at least this would be done well, but no its mostly brushed through....

Its okay to pass the time its not the worst it just feels choppy and the romance disappointing.

I loved it, everything is interesting, the synopsis found the story a bit dubious, but it is quite immersive, detailed without many holes that cannot be explained, ... more>>
Spoiler

because it is precisely the holes that are the mystery that the MC has to discover. I thought it was perfect, very cute so far (cap24), no toxic love or love at first sight, the MC is not s*upid or naive, much less rushed to solve a problem that he doesn't even understand the causes, nor rushed to blame someone without having all the information, even if you suspect the barbarity that humans may have caused to mermaids. In summary, I hope you continue translating, and thank you for translating. ♡

This one was a relly interesting novel, the plot seemed carefully planned and written. Every aspect seemed rational and every consequence has its respective cause... I really liked it.

The only thing I would say against it is that there were some mistakes in writing names, ages and description of scenes, though they appeared once in a while so it wasn't that bad. There were also some points that didn't make sense but since they weren't part of the overall plot I just ignored them... (Like whales living in the... more>> deep sea and not needing to go to the surface for air, or the airship that had just travelled through space suddenly having a window where the outside scent could get in, or the rooms that have sound insulation but you could still be heard if you talked through the closed door...)

Now, this next point it's only personal but I would have liked more romance in the novel, I understood that since the new body of the MC was underaged it would be a slow romance but I thought that we would have a time skip in the story and we would see some development. The time skip happened but at the end and the main story finished with the MC's 18th birthday and only in the second extra chapter was the much expected romance.

Until that point I wouldn't even have considered this story BL...

But appart from that I really enjoyed the story, I was pleasantly surprised by the way the plot developed. <<less

I really enjoyed reading this with these fun characters and went on binge reading the whole novel!

The only thing that's unfortunate is that there are a few parts of the novel which they could've expand on but wete instead brushed over.

... more>>
Spoiler

For example:

  1. Him going to military academy, literally only mentioned he graduated from it and that was it. Could've had more where he came in and shocked the masses right?!
  2. Changing up tge mermaid facility. I really wish there was more scenes with the development and changes in the young mermaids.
  3. The whiff of any potential side cp was brutally destroyed by essentially turning all side characters into passerbys! I wish they had some side couples cause although I love the main one, side ones can be fun too!

These are obviously just some of the moments in the novel that if extended some more would breathe some life into the other characters and the story world.

Waiting for the full translation but I like it so far? Though I sense there is won't be romance anytime soon? I mean the description said there's something in the 90 chapters and I'm already at chapter 50 with NO Romance between the ML and MC yet. But the MC keeps it interesting somehow so... meh.

System BL, interstellar, mermaid bl, merman BL, military ML, Emperor ML, MC heals ML, transmigration, reincarnation

The MC is strong but the rest of the characters are annoying in their treatment of him. I'm seriously getting... more>> annoyed with all the other characters except for the ML and MC.

The MC does play holographic mecha fighting games like in other interstellar BL. Which seems to be his only place of freedom to show his strength at this point.

I don't like the torture that the mermaid big bro kiro (?) Is going through while his brother hasn't been searching for him? Except it's mentioned that he did a wide search and even searched bas**ents and into the ground of those big families when he first went missing. <<less
