This was my first QT type story and at first, I was really happy w/ it. I read the first three arcs in one sitting and was happily waiting for new chapters. But as I read more arcs, I realized....I didn't like the MC or the fact that there was clearly no character development and honestly very little romance, which has made me drop this.Honestly... it's not bad. But it's not very good either.For the most part, the writing is way too simple and basic (altho the translation is amazing!) and the characters are VERY two dimensional, sometimes even one-dimensional. There's also barely any description, so it feels like I'm reading a story taking place in a blank screen. And the comedy is meh and the romance is barely there - it's a very LONG story and I get that it'll take time but idk, I'm too bored of basically reading the same plot in every new world w/ barely any progress in either the MC or the romance.The MC has a very mysterious past, which has made her be a very unfeeling and selfish person w/ basically no morals - making her able to kill anyone w/ no regrets or w/ no feelings toward anyone beyond boredom and contempt. And that's fine and all, at the beginning, but she remains the same. Right now, I think it's at Arc 12 and I realized how bored I was of the MC's personality - she brute forces everything so she doesn't have to struggle nor actually plan what she wants to do, and she doesn't even care that much to complete the mission. And the "villains" (aka usually the world's original FL and ML) are so s*upid and basic it feels like the MC is an adult playing a game against little kids and steamrolling over them - I don't feel anything beyond flimsy amusement in her winning and idk about you but when I read stories I want to actually care about the MC and her journey and root for her.Like I get she's OP, but it has to be done right. Maybe her OP-ness wouldn't matter so much if this story were shorter and had fewer arcs, but there's only so much I can read about the same MC brute forcing her way thru the world she transmigrated into and counterattacking while barely romancing the ML if he's present. It would be much more entertaining tbh if we at least had some character development - I'm not asking for her to change completely, but at least maybe she starts caring about other people slowly, making friends and whatnot, and caring about the ML beyond just 'liking him'. But no, she remains the same unfeeling, immoral character until now 300+ chapters in and I'm tired and bored w/ her.Also... this story isn't for the faint-hearted or those that like their MCs to retain some goodness. I'm of the latter sort, but I can stomach the MC's lack of humanity for some time. But even her disregard of humanity gets boring and honestly stale - if she doesn't care about other people, why am I supposed to her about her and her story?? Her selfishness in the end turns me off, and I really dislike how she disregards everything and is too lazy or unfeeling to even be interested in anything other than her own desires.However, if you're into MCs like this one and don't care about character development too much, then I guess you'll enjoy this story. The romance tbh is kind of boring as well, I actually enjoyed the FL being the one in control of the relationship tbh, but since she doesn't feel anything beyond "like" for the ML the romance and 'love' btwn them feels hollow and fake. So idk, I wouldn't read this for the romance tbh.
