Initially, I genuinely believed she would find some sort of connection - whether romantic or platonic - with characters like Taishu, the crystal man, seaweed creature, zombie, Chinese vampire, little devil, or even her whip, Fa Tian. However, the novel surprises by not tying her to anyone, which I found quite exhilarating.
There's no designated male lead; Taishu is more of an antagonist who battles her relentlessly. Among them, the bond with Fatian feels the closest to affection, though it's more like a brotherly love than anything else.
I was on the edge of my seat when she finally gained the strength to hurt Taishu, even if it wasn't for lethal purposes. Overcoming their conflicts and breaking free from constraints was truly a triumph for her. **End of Spoiler:**
The author clearly conveyed the protagonist's worldview and reinforced her principles throughout the story. This novel taught me valuable lessons about perception and reality.
**Spoilers Resuming:**
The ending left me satisfied, as NingShu transformed into a different, more innocent version of herself. Her interactions with Fatian were heartwarming, as he unexpectedly matured and became a protective figure, akin to an older brother. The ending felt genuinely fulfilling.
**Final Spoiler:**
Zheng Qing, you've got me conflicted with your storytelling! I hope your character experiences some difficulties with his sibling in the afterlife. **End of Spoiler:**
Definitely give this book a read; you won't be disappointed!
This interest seems to have originated during the first arc when he discovered FL's distinct identity after the original soul returned. I had this sudden realization, "Oh my, he knows!" My excitement reached new heights when they met again in a different body in a subsequent arc – my ship sailed full speed ahead. However, I've come across reviews stating that there won't be a true romantic storyline, which leaves me a bit disappointed.
Furthermore, when she learns about the impending demise of the "world" she believes she originated from, her first instinct is to abandon it rather than finding a way to contribute or protect it. It's particularly surprising, considering her previous displays of patriotism during war missions, solely because she considers herself part of that world. This inconsistency in her sense of belonging and loyalty is deeply off-putting.
The main character's personality is thoroughly unlikable, marked by hypocrisy and multiple standards.
Positive aspects:
- The translation is exceptional.
- Ning Shu's inner thoughts are captivating, showcasing her growth from vulnerable to strong.
Negative aspects:
- The novel seems to have a strong anti-woman sentiment. Almost every female character aside from the protagonist is portrayed negatively, often subjected to violence, including sexual abuse. The only sympathetic women are those Ning Shu possesses. Moreover, the moral stance of the story keeps shifting. In one arc, Ning Shu empathizes with the plight of the female lead, but in another, she victim-blames the FL for not reporting her abuser. This inconsistency hits close to home, considering the #MeToo movement and the reasons many victims don't report their abusers, especially when dealing with powerful individuals. Additionally, the portrayal of law enforcement as ineffective in rape cases further exacerbates the issue. Ning Shu's disgust towards the FL's love for her abuser after he killed someone she cared about feels misplaced – more like a resignation to her situation than anything else. If even her loved one couldn't escape, what's the point?
- The general arc displays casual racism, which deeply offends me as a black reader. The constant derision of the country girl, the main character's lover, based on her skin tone is unbearable. While I understand the necessity of villainous characters in this genre, Ning Shu's judgmental attitude doesn't help. Furthermore, the other characters, excluding the MC, are portrayed as one-dimensional and foolish.
- The novel tends to let male characters off the hook more than women. In the Princess arc, the prince is a despicable character, a rapist and abuser, yet the narrative focuses on his appearance and supposed kindness to Ning Shu rather than acknowledging his abusive nature. The story implies that the princess's mistreatment is her own fault if she wasn't interesting enough. Similarly, in the Death Soldier arc, Ning Shu's job is made harder due to the FL's actions, despite the prince's predatory intentions. The prince is portrayed as a comical figure, but ultimately, the FL suffers, and no significant consequences befall him. This treatment of the FL and Ning Shu's enabling behavior reminded me of Serena Joy from "The Handmaid's Tale."
In conclusion, despite the story's promising aspects, the toxic portrayal of women and the Madonna-whore complex paired with sexual violence as a punishment手段 are deal-breakers for me. I can no longer continue reading something that consistently angers and frustrates me, even if the translation and humor were enjoyable.
Initially, the MC is portrayed as someone who spent most of her life in a hospital, lacking social skills. However, throughout the story, she transforms significantly, becoming a sponge that absorbs knowledge. Although she struggles at times, her determination shines through. Each arc introduces a new challenge, often featuring morally reprehensible characters, like the rapists in one particular arc. The MC not only avenges herself but also ensures justice for both women and men, making her retaliation impactful.
The purpose of these arcs seems to be to expose the flaws in the clichéd, annoying characters, both male and female leads, who often exhibit victim mentality or believe they are invincible. The MC serves as a counterbalance, pointing out their shortcomings and challenging societal norms. For instance, in the sadomasochistic arc, the father's justification for his actions highlights the double standards and victim blaming present in the story.
What I appreciate most is the absence of a traditional male lead and the MC's unwavering commitment to her cause, despite her ambivalence towards the role. She constantly strives to become stronger to survive and seek justice, regardless of the personal cost. Overall, the novel offers a compelling narrative with a strong, intelligent protagonist who defies stereotypes.
If you're curious about its contents, consider checking the tags; though the story may deviate from them, every detail has its purpose. This novel is ongoing, so who knows, we might be companions for another two decades!
Some readers might complain about the main character's perceived harshness. Reality can be tough, and it's not always fair. The character focuses on facts and struggles with emotional entanglements, which some might view as a weakness. She only interacts with those obstructing her goals and maintains her independence. It's not her fault others stumble; fools often learn through experience, or not at all.
As I've not reached halfway, I believe she still relies on knowing the future, but I hope she evolves into a strong, happy individual, not someone easily swayed. Keep reading, and remember, there might be moments of confusion, but there's drama too.
Lastly, there's no romantic involvement for her character at this point. Enjoy your journey!
My suggestion would be to read it chapter by chapter, skipping over the parts you find unappealing, and if the repetitive nature starts to lose its charm, feel free to take a break and come back to it another day.
The protagonist undergoes a profound moral evolution as she matures, captivating readers with her growth and independence. She values freedom above all else – the freedom of her body, mind, and choices, even in the face of societal expectations. Although romance plays a minor role, her understanding of love's complexities comes from witnessing its tragic consequences in her various lives.
However, the portrayal of humanity as universally virtuous may be a point of contention for some, especially given the author's choice to elevate humans as the pinnacle of intelligence and resilience. As a hamster supremacist, this aspect might be less appealing, though others may overlook it.
In terms of translation, while this web novel from China initially had potential concerns about nationalism or subtle racism, these issues are relatively minimal in this particular story. There are a few minor aspects that could bother sensitive readers, but overall, they should not detract significantly from the narrative.
To sum up, the story is an engaging and thought-provoking journey with well-rounded characters and a focus on personal growth,尽管它在某些观念上可能具有局限性。
