Death Progress Bar Chapter C125 Discussion

4.31 Stars

Writing/Translation: 4.5/5

The translation I read is from Betwixed. Pretty good translation. A slightly odd word every few chapters but pretty good. You can tell the translator is good at English, really likes the story and also cares about the quality of the TL.

Pacing: 4.5/5

No issues. There was something interesting going on the whole time.

Plot: 4.3/5

Pretty good story. The first, like, half ish part of the story was the solving of the external issues of the MC while getting to know the whole situation of the family. It was full of mystery and investigation. Along the way, we get involved with the ML and his side of the equation too. Then, after the external threats to the MC get solved, we now start the healing part of the relationship between the MC and his brothers, which I thought was the whole story ahahaha. This is where the hard conversation with no physical threats or danger gets done. This is also the part where the ML part has a lot of danger.

Romance: 4.3/5

The romance is pretty good. I like their relationship a lot. Better than the typical BL. They care a lot for each other, and no one is controlling or forcing the other into the relationship.

Setting/Worldbuilding: 4.3/5

The setting is also a bit better than most surface-level settings. There are underworld politics; the brothers also have some business stuff and modern world settings. We also have a wider variety of places where the story takes place too even though we still stay at a surface level. Amusement parks, police academy, various islands, nightclubs, hospitals, private beaches, various provinces, other countries, malls, restaurants, etc. Some other BLs only take place in like 3 main places lol.

Characters: 4/5

The main characters are so good. The MC is a vibrant, capable, goofy and just a delightful guy who was a policeman in his previous life. He is kind and cheerful. The ML is the underground leader of the biggest legal underground organization in the country and is trying to clean the whole organisation and the people in it into the light. Oh, he was poisoned a long time ago, so his legs are weak and not usable. He is possessive of the MC but also hates how his legs are preventing him from being a good boyfriend. He lets the MC do what he wants but is very good at communication in handling the relationship and also plays the boss and follower role with the MC.

I love the brothers too. They are so different from each other with their own issues haha. My favourite is the fifth bro hehe. They all have their own feelings and situations in the whole mess, good or bad. The Guas are also so fun and a nice, cheerful and lively bunch that hangs around the MC and ML.

Personal Enjoyment: 4.3/5
