    Wizard: Knight's breathing has ended on May 30. The aggregator site only has the final chapter (C666) today.

    The first few half of the work was fun.

    Then it got unfun.

    I will now attempt to swallow the last 13 chapters.

    There are always some gags that I found disappointed to be unable to translate from Mandarin Chinese to English.

    Such as 核平, MTL as nuclear level but it is actually a play between nukes (核能 he neng) and peace (和平 he ping) and turns it into "achieving peace by force (nukes)".

    世界和(核)平 suddenly has a funny vibe.

    Then there is the dig at Amazon's AI store run by Indians, 靠人工的人工智能, MTL can't really help but 人工智能 means artificial intelligence, 靠 means rely on and 人工 actually means manual labor and can also mean man-made ie artificial. So the joke is "an artificial intelligence that runs on human labor".

    God, like dissecting a frog, jokes' not funny any more.

    I have a confession.

    I always thought the handle bars joke with horned girls means blowjob.

    It took me a while but I did found out that it could also apply to doggy style somehow.

    I dunno, still feels weird to grab em by the horns whilst fucking her from rear, a tail grab maybe.

    Grabbing the horns while doggy? I feel It might be disastrous for her back and neck.

    And out goes the third work.

    This time because the character interaction is off plus the cheat that MC got is vague as nine hells.

    "The Strongest Body"? What does it do? Apparently it is just the No-Fatigue cheat from the JP novel and MC can endlessly grind to increase body strength.

    Second problem, the MC i sbland and everyone in the work is unlikable, starting with MC "best friend" who is a rotten human being through and through.

    When MC showed imrpovement and even excelling in class, the guy was the first to show hostility while others are just envious of MC.

    Dropped the fourth work.

    Same issue with third work but amplified.

    Long story short, it is the typical familial drama from a large clan. Made worse when MC mother was forced to commit suicide to save her son.

    Well, the chinese novel that I am binging on does lives up to its accusations.

    Samey faceslapping interaction, samey lines and samey everything.

    The thing has a total of 705 chps and at chp 314, the repeating patterns are killing me.

    Oops, forgot detail. Edit : well multiples as i began typing LOL

    Brother
    HANDSOME, MEGA ULTRA RICH family, and smooth talker. AND CONNECTIONS bc duke family, cousin clan to royal one. THAT BTW, the 2 families very close/happy. Is popular in capital.
    Finally also friend with MC at beginning, by taking him a random nobody walking on the road, in his rich carriage to the sect examination => he doesnt disdain "weak"

    So yeaaaaaah~ as author needed a reason to not have him overshadow MC
    author used the good idea of "yang root" (can't have sex) :ROFLMAO:
    Tsuru

    And truly works.
    similar to successful
    NU virtual white emperor
    Troll MC and goofy sidekicks

    Also sometimes there are jokes about yang root. Like : "i did sectmission to help teach foxwife, she tried to flirt and i ran away, i was so angry, am i that kind of lecherous villain !?" (MC whisper other: Pretty sure he just angry bc he couldnt)

    Idly listening to this


    and A Day In History's documentation of crimes against humanity brought different but same feelings.

    Different because the former is fiction while the latter is actual history.

    Same because bad things humans do are bad.

    If anyone ever doubt about quality of chinese novels, or to prove the fact they got hundreds of masterpieces/highquality works in WN form and unknown to the majority (as they don't get "manhua" adaptation unlike manhwa)

    this series is an example : https://chapmanganato.to/manga-nz990408
    (saw the raws yearrrrrs on uukanshu before it had manhua)

    W.h.y the fuck THIS series had manhua
    compared to the hundreds of randomly dropped interesting novels before, is crazy

    Dude is the manifestation of "the turtle and the hare"
    FOR REAL
    "Never give up
    or the low talent protag winning vs sect-geniuses

    (also not disliking the series itself though as the arc with the beautiful young/old photo girl is nice for example)

    I had given chance to some works that I previously dropped (and can still find, those that I forgotten I take it as fate) and reread some.

    All of them always ended up dropped again.
    I can skip tens of chapters forwards and read and still not like it.
    I can read for very far, thinking that the author has finally got it, only for the ball to drop and I quit.

    Welp. Also happened to me, in the period when i rushed looking through the uukanshu pages
    collected 20 series
    only to have 19 be dropped

    Though luckily didnt really have high expectations from them. More like throwing seeds randomly hoping it grow.

    Its less about "loli/lolicon" entirely
    but more like : I dont want to be annoyed by media complaints / laws / platform not allowing JP highschool girls
    (though indeed a 50% of reason about "loli")
    Tsuru
    Tsuru
    For example. Quintuplet anime VN. They are highschool girls. Hence 15-18. Its illegal for lot of countries/global-sale
    Sono hanabira. Clearly they are first year highschool. But disclaimer they are 18.
    Thx to this disclaimer they escaped Gigantic buzz drama. AND could have Steam sell their game to whole world.

    Days ago for example. Another buzz about "loli"
    Khyle did their own "take" on a prev meme about chara custo (about badonkers)

    Clearly a joke. 2D. Not about age but height (coughTatsumaki).
    But nope, still buzz
    (Khyle preemptively predicted it : "increased online harassment")

    I must say though, I like the Zero Punctuation theme song than the new one from Second Wind's Fully Ramblomatic.

    Not much a fan of hearing synth music that goes dong dong dong.

    .......Heck pretty sure some past animes also had this kind of music/song
    ......In fact. EVEN THE 2 FIRST SECONDS. MEGA SURE there was a .......(damnit had flashback just now but couldnt remember) anime that had a anime beginning identical.

    Dropped a new work in chp 9.

    The reviews are right, MC is an indecisive cunt; flipping between laughably Nagumo Hajime and having Jimmy the Cricket jerking off into his ear.

    I like negative reviews. I love them. I venere them.


    Unlike, "positive ones".
    Female urban romance CN NU having positive reviews : "its wholesome" "its sweet"
    =>25chapters in. FMC have 5+ men trying to get or r-pe her (among them the best friend of ML). ML have 7+ young ladies trying to get him (among them the best friend of FMC)

    Never again.

    well, there's your problem in the first place. i've read maybe one or two that didnt have rapey MLs, crazy male antagonists and unrepentant cockroach assholes obsessed with one or the other leads.

    I have 63 rrl novels bookmarked in my rss reader (don't count other sites because they, like SH, have me follow one specific feed like my reading list instead) (counting completed, deleted and dropped) and I'm all caught up on them

    And the obligatory nationalism in a Chinese novel.

    Even in the post apocalypse, the hatred for Nippon is real.

    Liked I said earlier, I like physical violence and I am capable of tanking chinese nationalism until a certain extent.

    I also enjoy the MC to keep his mouth shut and kill when needed to. 苟道 aka being methodical and cautious is fine, being a complete spineless coward is not.

    And I already kept to not reading unfinished castrated works as well as only attempting when author has 100+ chps.

    As to why I keep tanking shit works? Because I want to find the spark that Bear Wolf Dog and Get Lost once had, both of them already lost it in my eyes.

    You have better luck googling : the chinese translation of : 10 recommendations where mc is ruthless
    or : similar novels like bear wolf dog

    That and using duckduckgo search engine
    There are some webpages having a vet chinese readers giving real on point recommendation + review/spoiler/flaws

    I am so fucking tired with MCs turn from melee monkeys to yeeters.

    Once they find the grace of ranged, be it magic, dao or nuclear warheads, them fuckers be yeeting and no more ORA! ORA! ORA!
