PROBABLY. Maybe not but probably.

I think if you listed the character's age in the first panel, it might have more impact. I knew some people who were 28 (or older - even one who skipped classes due to his fiftieth birthday) in college...

As an aside, that was based on a novel, Mrs. Frisby and The Rats of Nimh - and the author was allegedly forced to change the names of some characters before it went to print, because the villains were all based blatantly on (rat) versions of people he worked with at The National Institute of...

It varies. "Good" is subjective, so going for "memorable" is a better goal. Technical elements can make it good or memorable - or get in the way. Humor can make it great - or make it just a slapstick joke. Tension is important - regardless of whether the tension is mortal fear or something more...

Both by strict definition (Other Place) and common usage (Reincarnated or regressed to another place) you're description above qualifies. UNLESS you don't want it to. Without the reincarnation/regression element, it would more accurately be "portal fantasy" but with it, Isekai. Again, unless...

Do you have at least five forum posts? I believe that is a requirement as well.

I've rarely encountered it by choice, but my wife has listened to quite a few audio novels with this as an element. The only title I know was "Saving Nora" - though it had a common theme in the "stories focused on mothers:" the mother had a multiple birth in her past and did not know of one (or...

In the early chapters (she got better later ... and the enemies got more intelligent... and then it moved off to their kids being the focus) of a webnovel my wife was listening to ("Saving Nora"), the MC suffered from this. Often slept for days or weeks after a mission. It was the only thing...

Then again, I have a scene that will probably play out very differently by the time I get to it (50-60 chapters I think), where a dead MC meets an ancestor.

Depends on specifics. I usually enjoy plotting it out, but depending on the specific acts involved, sometimes struggle with it at the actual time of writing.

Discounting Isekai, depends on the need of the story. I have an MC doomed to die once his arc is complete in one story, and two key allies have already perished.

I would keep it. You can always "Legend of Huma" it later (in the 80s, TSR Hobbies put out a series of novels set in the Dragonlance game setting, and they all referenced a great hero of the past, Huma. When Richard A. Knaak wrote "Legend of Huma" as a standalone book ... he ignored most of the...

Literature existed for ages without art attached, it will continue into the future that way. Don't sweat it. If you feel something MUST have visual representation, search Google Images, Bing Images or Pinterest for one or more graphics that look close, see if they are Copyright Free (if they...

It could have been a redemption arc if it hadn't been so abrupt. Instead, it's just him being a fickle little SOB, like he always was, always being the right hand to the true power (Qui-Gon first, then Obi-Wan, then The Emperor, then he tried to make Luke his second, and when that failed, he...

It can be kind of sexy, never says "no" and always begs for more...

Closest thing to a unique "eye skill" I've seen anywhere is Raistlin Majere's visual curse in Dragonlance - he sees the worst parts of the future of anything he looks at ... just the effects though, not the actual future. So most buildings are falling apart, most people are aged and decayed (or...

They're very selective about what they allow. Some smut seems to get a pass, but they come down hard (pun intended) on most of it.

Seems excessive, expensive, and effective. I approve.

I suspect this varies between online communities. May be more true at, say, SpaceBattles or Royal Road than here - and some sites like Honeyfeed would probably prefer the anime style. I would do a search for "Copyright Free Art" with a specific theme, collect a few images that felt "right,"...

I think the "(Beautiful Female)" notation strongly implies that she must be.
