This Alpha’s Pheromones Are Exploding

Description

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

Qiu Jin transmigrated into a book once again.

Last time, he transmigrated into an omega with pheromones that could make people go crazy. This time the heavens were merciful and finally had him transmigrate into an alpha. Moreover, it was the sexiest alpha in the entertainment circle.

Unfortunately, it was a cannon fodder.

The main gōng in the original book was Ji Shenxiao, an aloof tyrant CEO. He was alpha to the max. His self-control was so strong that no matter how omegas tried to seduce him, he would remain unmovable like a mountain. Until he met the protagonist omega shòu, which activated his second vein and turned him into the fiercest gōng dog.

And Qiu Jin was the cannon fodder alpha that competed with Ji Shenxiao. Arrogant and despotic, he tried to forcefully take, and grandly lost. He challenged the protagonist’s bottom line again and again. In the end, his gland was destroyed, and his family fell into destitution.

In this regard, Qiu Jin expressed that he would not be a toxic alpha male, so protagonist you go scram. However, humans could not defy the fates, and just when Qiu Jin was striving to become a high-quality alpha, the pheromones that made all the alphas go crazy in the last world came back!

At that moment, he saw the protagonist gōng suppressing his desires till his eyes were red, and his pheromones went out of control.

Qiu Jin swallowed: “Bro, let’s talk this out…”

The alpha squeezed the back of his neck, his voice hoarse: “But I prefer to do it directly.”

Love rivals become lovers. Alpha becomes omega.

I'm sorry but, it doesn't really make sense to transmigrate him into an alpha and then out of a nowhere this bit*h becomes an omega.

I only wanted to read this because I'm tired of weak and beautiful omegas.

Honestly, everything is just the same now..I want something NEW please! 😭

MTLed the entire story.

It's a pretty good romance. MC & ML slowly fall for each other though ML is the first to confess. MC is extremely good at acting, good at cooking and was a singer in his previous life, so is good at singing as well.

There's no angst or drawn out villain scenes. Basically, the villain gets sorted out on his own, the potential villains become great friends haha. It's pretty sweet.

Best part - No forced marking/ r*pe using the excuse of 'in heat/ estrous'. Even though MC's scent... more>> is supposed to drive everyone from ALL genders into a hear frenzy without fail, the ML bites himself hard and keeps biting until MC's heat goes away! Basically, he LOVES and RESPECTS MC! He is possessive but not too much. He only puts his feet down in movies where MC has intimate scenes. But otherwise it's a simple and cute love story between two people who admire and respect each other to the core. <<less

The beginning and end of this novel were decent, if only the frustrating and meandering middle portion of the novel were cut out.

At first MC is a sassy independent character, but somewhere in the middle he loses his brain and turns into a damsel in distress, needing to be rescued by the endlessly patient ML over and over while the author chases word count. I lost track of the number of times ML showed up in the nick of time to rescue MC from the predatory antagonist, only for MC... more>> to friend-zone ML. There were a few times where MC practically delivered himself into the antagonist's mouth, with no sense of danger whatsoever. Quite careless of someone who used to be a cautious omega.

Poor ML, he's wasted on this dense, apathetic MC. Even the side characters notice something's up, only MC remains willfully ignorant.

MC does a full 180 and regains his sanity once they finally together 90% of the way through the novel, but at that point, he's already too far gone. It's impossible to redeem his character. Let's not mention the numerous plot holes in this novel.

Spoiler

For instance the antagonist made some legendary drug that can change an Alpha to an Omega, yet nobody else seems to know what it is.

Somehow this antagonist is MC's former best friend from his previous transmigration who crossed over 18 years prior to MC yet somehow knew the exact moment MC transmigrated into this world despite having no contact with the original owner. But don't worry, some random ass person comes out of nowhere to deal with him before he disappears, never to be seen again.

Also, the fact that MC changes into a completely different persona yet none of his friends or family think anything of it.

Or the fact that sometimes ML finds MC's pheromones irresistible yet at other times is unable to perceive them because of his pheromone disorder... Which is it?

[collapse]

Alas, at least the side CP is cute... <<less

I MTLed the next dozen chapters and I gotta say I'm impressed.

Our MC has transmigrated before, and in his last life he was an omega. This time he is an alpha, a scummy celebrity who was sexually harassing an omega.

Immediately, he stops his behaviour and apologizes, and works to improve his image. On one hand there's a subplot where the omega is wary and doesn't quite believe the MC has changed, before slowly realizing the guy has improved. On the other hand there's the relationship between our MC and the... more>> ML.

I appreciate that the MC's omega pheromones take a while to show up and we spend a lot of time with him as an alpha. The author slowly sets up a relationship with the ML that evolves naturally instead of immediately bringing out the pheromones and creating a 'lust at first sight' situation.

I was also really surprised that there is another small subplot I didn't see coming, about changing society and the way it trivializes harassement of omegas, claiming omegas are just being 'too sensitive'. Normally I don't like social justice in the stuff I read because I want escapism, not to be preached at. However I found it was handed very well in a way I haven't seen other Asian webnovels manage.

As a whole the story is well-written and really a hidden gem. <<less

Personally, I didn't dislike most of the novel, but there were just some parts that felt off to me. Maybe somewhere between 3.4/5 or 3.9/5.

There are: Tons of cringe-inducing and embarrassing moments, including but not limited to: ... more>>
Spoiler

MC pulling the ML's underwear off, MC staring at ML's private parts, MC walking into ML jacking off, MC accidentally thinking that he had f**ked the ML, and more for you to explore!

Why make the MC transmigrate into an alpha just for him to turn into an omega though? Honestly, besides that and some weird things about the "villains" and how fans react, it's not a bad novel. There are lot of things it could certainly improve on, mostly just the execution of some supposed "kyaaa!!!" scenes (the whole ML helping MC crap) and the whole Alpha into Omega thing (yeah I'm sorry it just didn't really work out for me) (basically just a lot of plot holes). In whole, the romance is (mostly) fluffy and cute to read. The side characters have some depth (though not much) to them. The ML is not terrible, but don't expect a lot, just your typical domineering CEO with personality to the point you don't get bored or hate him, and yet he isn't particularly memorable or special.

Ehh, it's honestly not my type of novel, but it's not bad, i'd say. Sorry for the bad English and have a nice day. <<less

3 stars but will wait for the full translation to read again and rate. I do agree with others, the story dragged.

The idea that MC swaps from A to O seemed interesting, but I wasn't a fan of it put into practice. Seemed forced. Would have rathered him just be an O from the begining.

The ML is okay, no complaints but nothing extraordinary.

The translation was fine but a word of warning, it's broken up into 2 to 3 chapters. Chapters 66-70 of the translation is only chapter 23 in the... more>> raws. I understand the need to break up chapters and I appreciate the translator's work, but it really bugs me when they number broken up chapters sequentially like this, instead of putting something like; 23.1, 23.2, 23.3, etc.

MTL was ok, some parts were kind of confusing so I just skipped them. Might be worth it to MTL though, at the rate the translation is going it won't be done for 4 more years. <<less

To be honest, when I read the synopsis and saw the number of chapters, I wasn't expecting much.

And I was right to do so.

I feel like this is an author's first work, the kind when you read a really good book and want to impulsively write the same genre only to find out its hard writing.

That aside, the storys okay. If I could describe it in a few words it would be "There for convenience and unnecessary ". Basically, some elements in the story is there for convenience and other... more>> elements is just there floating in the backdrop.

As for the main characters, they're 1 dimensional. You'd think a person who's lived two life times going onto his third to be mature but no, the author decided to make the MC similar to Xiang Xi in the later chapters.

Now, the side characters have some development but its not that great. To be specific. Some of them don't show up for 10+ chapters and then they suddenly turned over a new leaf.

The story isn't bad but the elements that make the story stand out too much for me to ignore. I think I did pretty well holding out until chapter 78.

That's it.

3/5

Enjoi and Adieu! <<less

MTL completed to chapter 81 (cub raising extra), readability 80%.

I must say that author might have misunderstood of how film/drama shooting works.

To take one perfect scene, director may need to take various angles and prepared certain props, thus continuous shoot like one describe several times in this novel won't happen.

For example, the cutting head shot, it was done in one take to describe how awesome MC acting, but if you think logically, it can't be done in one take at all. From the time knife/sword scene to the prop head... more>> fell down, these might need several shot to be made into one full scene.

There were several of these 'super shot' in this novel, while it's okay to read, I found it rather odd.

***

I thought that it'll get down to the darker part considering how bleak MC experience in his previous life, but it's all cheery and beautiful.

A pity there's no explanation about the only antagonist who transmigrated together with MC to this life. It's like he's gone after one incident, leaving no trace at all. <<less

MTL'd and it went pretty well.

I guess I quite liked it, I like that it wasn't your usual rebirth where the original protagonist becomes antagonist or the person who reborns alongside you is the male lead.

I am however disappointed that the author chooses to retract MC's physically strong, confident, tough persona (which were what made me like him in the first place) into somewhat meek, maiden-like.. It sucks that being an omega is almost always tied to femininity and fragility.

MC is also.. BIG SIGH - super oblivious to romance. I... more>> just kept facepalming whenever he interacts with the ML: "oh but that's cuz we're friends / mutually helping each other"....

And for someone who came from an omegaverse novel in tbe beginning, he's surprisingly clueless about alpha/omega etiquette and the ML or his family has to remind him of certain things?

I'm also gonna be honest and mention that I literally scrolled past all the paragraphs that talk about the plot of MC's movie. I'm not interested in reading about movie characters/plot, it feels like heavy filler. I wish the author incorporated more of how the MC adapted himself into his film role or just anything that'd let me engage with the story more. Reading these made me think that I'm reading two novels at once.

I'm probably going to regret giving this a 4-star rather than a 3, but I think the original protagonist and ML's brother saved the story for me. I enjoyed their comedic tones that I forget that I wasn't actually satisfied with the story. I also liked that the premise of the story is slightly unconventional.. but MC has let me down. I'll continue seeking for the next manly shou.. <<less

3/5 stars

It was alright. Nothing new or extraordinary in this genre of novels. I do have to say, it really did have the protentional of being so good if it stayed alpha x alpha. The moment he changes abo gender, the dynamic between the ML and MC just becomes stereotypical in a way. In my opinion, that would be because of the way the MC's personality morphs. It may seem subtle to the reader at first, but in hindsight, it's obvious enough to the point where it alienates you from... more>> the MC. It wasn't too terrible, but what slowly started grinding my gears was MC's denseness. He's already transmigrated before as an omega previously, and it's described multiple times how cautious he had to be over every little thing. Yet when he gets to this world, all his caution and critical thinking skills are completely turned off in this aspect. So many moments where alphas, in this case the main villain, are being VERY uncomfortable and always getting in his space. Once is already too much. Not to mention, the way he's in denial towards ML. He clearly states that ML would NEVER mark or do any of those intimate things with those he doesn't feel any 'like' or 'love' towards, but when it comes to their relationship it's just a pure give and take mutual benefit relationship???? I feel like the only character that actually really left the original novel mold was the og protag Xiang Xi.

This is a typical gary stu MC whose only flaw is them being emotionally dense when it comes to ML liking them, and only makes a mistake in trusting others or getting hurt by others especially by a villain just so they can be pitied and then gary stu their way back to flawlessness to show how bAdAsS the MC is with some face-slapping. Of course my main issue about this is that this denseness is their ONLY flaw. Nothing else. It just feels so shallow and like it was written purely for plot reasons with no rhyme or reason. By the time they start shooting the drama, I was already ready to check out. I have nothing against gary stus but usually when written like this it either quickly becomes yawn material or induces high blood pressure in the reader.

In conclusion, beginning with Alpha x Alpha dynamics was great! Comedic, fun, so much to look forward to. If it had stayed this way, with emotional and character growth in between, it could've been truly great! Middle was still okay, and towards the end, just felt like it was dragging on. Sometimes what makes a novel pretty disappointing is having such a great beginning, without following through to the end. These entertainment novels with gary stus lack depth and growth. This is unfortunately, one of them.

Despite all this, I don't think it was entirely too bad, but probably not a reread for me. A lot of people like this, but I feel like the reviews giving such a high rating are inflated and in retaliation to those who rate this mid (to which I've always found strange how people would intentionally rate higher just to 'bump up' the ratings). I would recommend for those looking for something to pick up when there's nothing else to read. <<less

The translator split the chapters into three so basically c103 is actually 1/3 of raw chapter 35.

Moving on, I love the side characters!!! Especially the family, why are they so cute, funny, and loving (especially Mommy Ji), so awesome. Although I feel bad that the doting made the original astray not knowing what is wrong or right. There are parts that are vulgar or rather explicit (not in the way you're thinking, no) considering it's being televised on TV.

To be honest, I wished that another arc would have been done... more>> before Qiu Jin became an Omega again. I also wanted to see the story of the Zombie IP, the blurb was too interesting.

I'm also curious, am I reading too much on it or did Jiang Ming has something to do with that foster brother of his? I wished the author included it in the extras (even if they're not a pair, I wish we could have seen the machinations that Jiang Ming did including the time with his foster home due to the mention of a sister that died??? Like please give the deets.)

Xiang Xi and Li Yiqian are too cute as a pair! I wonder if it's due to my preference of esports haha (chapters 82 - 88). <<less

This was so funny in general, I love all the comedy aspect of the novel. The humor really made it really enjoyable.

Alot of love rivals that get swept aside one by one he.

MC is abit special because he transmigrated more than once already and he's not part of a system. So it was a new experience from Omega to Alpha but that didn't last long. MC basically can do anything, cooking, surfing, acting, dancing, singing, he's an all rounder. He's good at talking and knows how to sell his strong... more>> points well, everybody loves him not the original him who only knows how to flex his muscles.

I kinda do wish he stay an Alpha because he was already an omega the last life.. I want to see something new, A/A is still possible. Or Let the CEO become an O hmm

ML really went through the motions, went from moody, to obsessive to soft, to pure and sweet warm husband. He has so many sides to him. I couldn't guess his true self till near the end when he showed how much he care and tolerates the MC. He has alot of patience, I would've blown up after witness so many people hitting on and get close the MC. He has the strongest self control I ever seen in an Alpha for sure.

Novel Main Shou is also a fascinating character, he 's really funny and straight forward. Glad he has his own HE ending.

This novel focus on Entertainment industry and it was fun, alot of acting based for MC. Good relaxing read <<less

at chapter 84; waiting for the translator’s update but I’m wondering if the chapters were split up since the total number is said to be 90+ but the storyline is nowhere near the middle.

anyways this is a light-hearted read. So far MC seems to be focused on doing his best to build up his career. ML seems like the typical cold-to-others-only-sweet-to-you type of characters but this could change later? 84 chapters in but I don’t feel like I progressed much

Freaking fracking cute

what I loved the most about it here is that everyone is so mature??? Like there will be pettiness and jealousy but its handled very well that you wont think that you're reading high school students going at it.

and I also like how when one person starts to act ambiguosly the other person is not like "oh he can't like me, im only blah blah" no downgrading yourself! Its like I think he likes me what should I do

and I loved how the og shou protag became friends... more>> with our MC, even though they both started on the wrong foot. And the ogshou protag's extra!!! So freaking cute <<less

It's sweet and is a comfort-read for those who wants to take a break from drama. Still, you may have to throw your IQ out the window when reading this.

There are a lot of questionnable plotholes in this story but I'm just in it for the comfort of having "no drama" lmao. It's very sweet, especially at the end, although I skipped the story about the films that the MC is starring in.

It seems like the author is increasing wordcount, hence the inclusion of the film's story.

Overall, I want to... more>> rate it as a 4.3/5 because it was good, but the additional story from the films in the novel wasn't really interesting for me, plus the plotholes that are too many to point out. <<less

MTLed this all the way... fortunately it's one of those novel that MTL can be easily understood.

It's a fun AO x entertainment theme, just I felt the romance is a slow burn despite having the potential to hit it off right from the start. What caught me off guard was how dense the protagonist is, because given he's not new to entertainment industry (he'd been in the same industry pre-transmigration) I assumed he's quite versed at dealing with people who likes him. I also thought it was AA—that the Alpha... more>> becomes omega is figurative in a sense that if there's two tops, one has to bottom. Boy, was I wrong.

Anyway, it's also my fault for not reading the tags carefully.

If you don't have problems with Mary Sue and Gary Stu charas + tons of dog food + some plotholes
Spoiler

seriously it might be because I read the MTL, but I felt like there are some loose ends on what could've been a great plot. I don't understand why he has the most fragrant omega pheromones that could literally make people commit an or*y on the spot, like a curse, and why that curse followed him to the book he'd transmigrated into, so powerful that the body who's been an alpha all along suddenly became omega, and why he has a crazy stalker who'd follow him to the world he'd transmigrated in. He also pointed out how the plot in the novel seems to be changing but never delved on why that is and whether it should be cause of concern (it literally doesn't matter, so I wish the MC never pointed it out at all). It's as if the author had grand plans for the plot at first but felt tired sorting it out in the end so decided to just let it be

At first, I thought that I would get disappointed by the MC's attitude despite his actual age 30 (but the novel qui Jin is only 21) but I was not!!

And MC is so hilarious. He has 3 lifetimes (2x transmigrated NOT 3x) : original world, world where he was an O, and the another world (novel) where he was an A->O.

The ML is your typical Gary Sue. I like him for his self control and dislike him for being cunning (end of Jiang ming). Also, although he didn't mark... more>> nor force himself to MC yet, he kept teasing the MC, kissing him deeply at the makeup room in the shooting without letting the MC go.. etc. Anyway this is an ABO so it's understandable

I like this novel due to it's plot and well written scenes "per chapter". But a little disappointed with the story of Jiang ming. I don't know what happened to other chara, eg Jiang ming and his brother etc. And MC's story in other worlds are not stated much. Only..
Spoiler

original world where he lived with his grandpa and become an actor emperor at his 30. Second world, where he was an omega and also an actor and has a friend named Duan... (forgot the whole name) which is also Jiang ming here. Duan planned to live with MC in an island etc... but they died of plane crash. And this 3rd world, where he was an A that become an O

ML is gentle and respectful to MC. There's actual consent. And he protects MC against others that are evil.
