My first time reading this type of novel was quickly wear the face of the devil. I loved it so much I gave this a try.However I feel like they can’t compare. And it’s not only because of the lack of romance or even because one is shounen ai (I don’t care as long as plots good). Is just that the his novel the female lead stays the same. While that doesn’t sound so bad, when dealing with this kind of story that changes setting one needs a bit of adaptability to keep things interesting. In Wear the face of a devil the guy might stay the same badass hacker he was originally, but he adapted to each setting and was treated each reincarnation seriously and choose his battles. This female lead type of badassmes is the type that I don’t like. The type that doesn’t take time to plan but merely struts around insulting everyone without proper reason and being “chunin”. Her lack of adaptability makes it boring even though the setting changes because u can always predict her every move. She’s going to get revenge, break the main leads, make everyone hate her and break the story apart instead of treating the stories like a different adventure to emerge herself in. I don’t know why she’s an author. Ok she doesn’t like the typical story line but she’s still very capable, she can just build her own story instead of being a parasit to society. Quickly wear the face of a devil had characters from each story that the reader could love and the male lead contributed to each story. He valued them so much that when he came back to reality he couldn’t let the worlds be destroyed and protected each world.The male lead was more respectful of the stories that this one who is an “author” even if both of them hated that the usual plot-sama.
