If I had to sum up my impressions of this novel in one word, that would be 'frustration'. The story had potential, unfortunately, the author didn't live up to expectations. The MC and ML are two-dimensional on a good day, mostly one-dimensional and at times I swear they're zero-dimensional! Oh, and their relationship is deeply unhealthy. The supporting characters disappear as soon as they're no longer needed, sometimes to be mentioned again briefly (like 300 ch. later). The antagonists habitually display negative IQ. The comedy feels forced.... more>>

Exiled Rebels, who worked on the project, should be awarded heroic honours - they actually translated this 700+chapter monster of a novel (I gave up at around ch. 500) <<less

It started off mildly interesting, amusing even, but deteriorated pretty quickly, imo. The more I read, the more unpleasant I found the characters, especially the MC's family: the mother is breath-takingly selfish, the sister is intrusive and pretentious af, the father thinks the best way to express love is to buy, buy, buy. The worst thing is that we're supposed to find it funny. Sorry, author, there're better comedies out there. ... more>>

Dropped like a hot potato.

P.S. Frankly, even the MC is not very likeable. <<less

As often the case, the beginning was all right, but I lost interest around the middle. I don't mind slice of life stories - if done well, they're very enjoyable - this one, however, feels bland. And while I'm aware it's a work of fiction, I need at least some semblance of realism. The inhabitants of the world the MC transmigrates to are sentient beings, they've been around for centuries, the idea that they need a modern man to teach them how to build houses or cook veggies is preposterous. Though ancient people didn't have access to all the information we literally have at our fingertips, they were by no means brainless or ill-adapted to... more>> their environment. 

And later it feels like the author didn't know what to do with the story, so they introduced another transmigrator (and a bratty one at that). I thought it was going nowhere and decided to drop the novel for good. <<less

Dropped this one very early on due to a strong dislike of the MC's personality. He's technically an adult, but his behaviour and thought processes are those of a s*upid and obnoxious teenager. It's as if transmigrating into a younger body negatively affected his brain. The only things on his mind, at least at the beginning, are food (is he a starving ghost?) and his chrysanthemum, which he protects as fiercely as an old nun her v**ginity. Oh, this chrysanthemum joke - I swear, the author wouldn't be happy if they hadn't mentioned it in Every! Single! Chapter! ... more>>

Unfortunately, there's very little in the novel to make up for such a deficient MC. The rest of the cast are cardboardy - functions rather than well-rounded characters. The pace is snail-like - chapter after chapter of mindless gossip and not much is going on apart from that.

It's not that I like to stick my nose up in the air, but this novel's quality is really... insufficient. Dropped. <<less

You know it's time to drop a story when the villains in it are almost clinically brain dead but you find yourself feeling sorry for them, feeling uncomfortable about the protagonist's cruelty.... more>>

As for the other aspects of this work - the world-building, the plot, the characters - I'd say they're pretty much run-of-the-mill.

Dropped. <<less
