I wanted to read this for a long time but after reading reviews and comments i always postpone it so this time I'm just gonna jump into it without reading any comments on home page ( and of course i read comments under chapters since that make novel more interesting)
This is not my story. its meant simply to spread This stiry to this particular service as other places might feel particularly scetchy or usafe for some.
I have read all the chapters and i must say this is one of the best books i have read and i have been reading for a long tim evan if its not your story and it is to get recognized it deservers five stars
FYI: This novel's original translator is YamirMoon from Reincarnation Palace, where they release 5-8 chapters a week (I think, at least that's what their schedule says). If you'd like to support the translator, please do check out their website.
The original novel is a Chinese novel published on Qidian called 万界之从巨蟒开始 (lit. Ten Thousand Worlds Start From Giant Python), by 香蕉气吁吁 (Banana Panting)
As of the writing of this review (1/11/2021), there are 446 translated chapters on the translator's website, and the original novel on Qidian has concluded at 649 chapters.
In the words of the Chinese author: This book will have no shape-changing, no evolving into dragons or flood dragons, only evolving into mythical snakes, no harem, no eating humans, and will flow like a slice-of-life. (本书不化形，不化龙也不化蛟，只会变化成神话中的蛇，不开后宫，不吃人，走的是轻松日常流)
OK, actual review:
The novel itself starts with the MC being reincarnated as a humble little snake in an alternate world very similar to earth called the Blue Planet (only changes seem to be some country names and the habitats of some animals at first.)
As MC grows larger and stronger, becoming an actual mythological snake, the world goes through progressively more sci-fi developments, evolving into a full-on kaiju novel at around chapter 200, which eventually develops into wormholes and interstellar, etc.
MC doesn't have many character interactions, but the author recycles characters in a fun way, so you'll see some characters again after tens to hundreds of chapters.
Like the Chinese author said, it's a pretty light read without many heavy elements. Slightly repetitive, since MC just grows in power hoping to reach his goal, but you'll see fun things on the way.
It's good binge material, especially since it's so long.
Writing: it's translated, so there are some problems but nothing major.
Stability: the story has been completed, so no new updates.
Development: there are some annoying time skips, and pacing sometimes runs wild, but the overall plot is excellent. The only fault is that the last three chapters (647.1, 647.2, and 648) break it all and leave you sad.
Character design is fantastic. You can see MC's journey from human to serpent. One can grow to appreciate even minor characters like Squirrel or Giant Turtle, probably it's just me, but somehow I could never really care about secondary human characters even if they are attractive.
World background is really extensive and complex. The only thing one can fuss about is a complete lack of reason or diplomacy between superpowers. Later on, countries just want to slap each other because yes.
