This is a hard-to-put-down slice-of-life/transmigration/drama/tragedy/psychological/romance series. The hosts of each world have been mistreated from anything ranging from a bad relationship to extreme ab*se, and the MC helps them relive part of their lives to help them have a different outcome and help them overcome their traumas. In a sense, it's therapeutic to the hosts.

This series won me over at the end of the first chapter. It has some spine-tingling twists as well. The MC takes the scum gongs and dumps them in the tr*sh—hard. These scum include a variety of unpleasant people, and the MC works to protect his hosts from them. Some of these characters strongly resemble the abusive or unfaithful MLs which can be found in a number of other series, both BL and non-BL genres. There's no need to worry about this MC getting it on with his target or falling in love with a jerk, unlike many other series. Here, the ML is actually a good person and not a nutjob.

One of these scumbags is a racist, and this character trait was used to destroy him. This is a Chinese series that includes racism as a bad thing! I've never seen this before. He gets punished beyond recovery.

There is character development, and the main characters have their own pasts and personalities.

The settings are interesting, and the original plots of each world have been thought-out well.

My biggest complaint is that the system used is too OP and goes beyond the minimum to help the MC, which minimizes any tension or suffering he may experience. He even helps the MC with day-to-day things like making a snack. The MC is plenty capable on his own, so why does the system have to get involved? I understand that this behavior is essential for the story, but it weakens the drama and suspense.

The tension could be better, but I like the psychological aspects focused on so far. It really adds depth to the story and pulls sympathy from the readers.
