this story starts slow but its a fun read and a break from op mc's and conventional gimmicks which adds to its charm any one looking for a good story should give it a go.
OMG IT'S UPDATING AGAIN OH MY GOODDDDD YIPPEEEE!!!
I get to see Fina, Old Time Tea, Galaxy, Richard, Han Fei AND THE OTHER CHARACTERS I HAVE FORGOTTEN THE NAME OF WOW! I'm so happy I'm going to re-read this!!
The beginning is a bit slow, but soon picks up. The cover of this novel I feel does not do this book justice, but lets ignore that for a second. This book is incredibly well written and has an interesting development style in the book. While the main character is focused upon greatly, he is merely serving as a binding for the story arcs that occur between each character while simultaneously being influenced by each side character that he is introduced to. The author introduces several side characters slowly, with an incredibly heartwarming yet humorous story arc, as the novel progresses to always keep it interesting. Well worth the read, and i reccomend at least to give it a try.
I was initially interested in this novel, and I read to chapter 182. I enjoy reading slice of life system novels. However, this novel took a very weird turn.
When the main character first got the system, the system told him that there wouldn't force him to do anything dangerous. However, all of a sudden there is now a life or death competition against other system holders? Wasn't this supposed to be a slice of life pet store novel? Why did it change so fast?
Normally I wouldn't care all that much about this competition, but the problem is the main character literally has no reason nor motivation to participate in this. The only reason he is the owner of a pet shop is because his parents died, and so he wanted to take over. The reason the main character started capturing this mystical pets is basically, "why not?".
Anyway, this story is pretty slow. The main character focuses on the mystical pets he has 100% of the time, why is kinda disappointing for a pet store owner that has 10 - 30 pets and only focusing on three of them. (So far) Normally in a story like this, you'd expect a lot of cute moments, because well, the main character owns a pet store. However, those are far and wide, nowhere to be seen. The story is extremely slow and repetitive, to the point of annoyance.
However, this novel does have some good comedy. Like when the main character implied communism would be a good idea.
The translation quality of this novel is pretty mid. Everything is understandable, but they randomly change the names of various characters/pets. It's extremely confusing because they literally have two different names for a character in a single chapter.
Overall, the novel is decent, but the fact that the author drones on and on about random stuff really makes this novel too slow to bear. I am unsure why they put a action-plot in a slice of life novel, but whatever.
An amazing novel, instead of going towards the action side of pets, Pet King focuses more on the slice of life and the development of main character and the pets.
With each pet being very unique and having a backstory, the progression of pets is simply wonderful, with almost all pets having complete character arcs, you can expect a more detailed characters oriented story.
The novel is one of the most interesting slice-of-life novels that I have read, it is even more impressive knowing that it was written by a little monkey named π...
Jokes aside this would do very well if it was adapted as an anime...
A good read to pass time 10/10 will recommend.
