What Happens When the Second Male Lead Powers Up Chapter 70 Discussion

  • #1
I think it's nice, truly. A lot of people here are criticising Jesse here as he is not a "strong" MC that novels have nowadays, but I think that his personality makes him quite refreshing. I personality think that strength doesn't necessarily mean that he has to have some schemes or raw power; there is strength in a mature and grounded personality. Jesse is just that sort of character, which I personally like as I feel that he is more realistic than MCs living in the 21th century who automatically have 999 schemes in their heads after transmigrating and treating the lives of people as weeds. I initially thought that he was a doormat character who bows down to a**holes after seeing all the scathing reviews but he honestly isn't one, he's just nice to people who are nice to him (only exception is prolly the crown prince but eh whatever). I think he's just a great MC with a compassionate heart. That's it. I understand the criticism if this was a story with political intrigue but since this is more like a slice of life, it fits perfectly.

I think the biggest flaws so far in this story is just that there are small inconsistencies and unexplained stuff surrounding the foundation of the story, and how the plot doesn't seem to have anything much going for it. In the first place, why did the MC automatically think that someone "regressed" the plot? Won't his first thought be that he transmigration *before* the death happened? Also, the author should have delved more into his emotions of transmigration given that his main priority is to go home.

Overall, I personally like MC's personality as it is refreshing to see a more compassionate and mature protagonist that doesn't cross into being a virg*n-mary. He gets angry and forgives when needed. I feel that his character is very mentally healthy as someone living in the 21th century and as someone with a close bond with his family members. Overall, it's a good slice of life, but I would personally be more interested in the story if the author spiced up the plot.
