A sibling war story. Or something like that.

Why is it all fanfic? I know fanfic quickly attracts readers. But fanfic will never be original work; it only enhances the perspective of the related mainstream story.

Original stories may require more effort to build popularity, but no matter how bad the original work is, it is your original work produced from creativity, building a fictional world from scratch. This is just a personal opinion - you can ignore it.

Huh? It is an original work. I do have an alter ego dedicated to writing original works.

I think it's just Fic... as in, just "Fiction". Unless OP was really talking about fanfic, cause I can't tell which specific work the OP is talking about in their signature.

It's not the main plot, I'm confident in the main plot. Just wanna know which things I should be careful about.

Would it be incest? I guess we can be very careful around that. Or maybe that's your thing

But the signature you included says otherwise... the fiction is just a collection of fanfics from Naruto, Re Zero, Fate series, etc.

That's true, but hey, just because I have fanfictions, doesn’t mean I won't write an original work!

Are they twins? That makes sense unless different mothers (could be a thing from a noble house) so the MC is a former guy reborn in a girl?​

I am currently writing a a WebNovel. The MC hates her brother because he has everything she doesn’t but as usual, the brother is Prince Perfect (at least to the people) and cares for her.

There is going to be Magical Academy phases, party forming (obviously both in the same party), quests, then demon king stuff.

Gender Bender. Isekai. It's also LitRPG, though it is not major.

It's not the main plot, I'm confident in the main plot. Just wanna know which things I should be careful about.

Thanks it advance.​

You'll need to make the hatred for someone who cares for her believable. If the "care" is siscon care and not good brother care, that would be too cliche. Give both character growth, unless the brother really is perfect and the MC grows to return good sibling care instead of bitter rivalry. Maybe she grows more powerful than him, but that is cliche too. Just my rambling thoughts, take it or leave it.

Well, other than having the wrong tags for your work. Everything is by individual taste. As long as you are consistent with how the characters interact based on their personality and motivations, and how true the tags are, there, aren't really much of a pitfall to fall into.

Also, this has no relation to the OP's thread.

Yes, same mother. The MC is a former guy reborn in a girl.
