This is overrated. I got baited to read this by the high rating given for the sake of gender equality.I have read all the way up to chapter 80 so far nothing interesting happen, nothing moves me and I am still unable to get myself attached to any of the character or MC.Not much plot had happened to be honest, I was intrigued because it was a reincarnation story, so I was expecting the MC to use her former life’s knowledge or what not; in fact she did but each time it was done it is rather underwhelming.You could say it is rather fast paced & slow at the same time, the environment has changed tremendously, she’s aged, traveled to another planet, entered another academy yet so far I feel it is lacking in character development. I cannot explicit what it really is but to give an example so far in character development-wise, I care & know about the characters as much as the 5 academies ? Everything in so far I have read are all background noises, unimportant kind of feeling & to be fair main character herself doesn’t seem to care much about anything neither so far; she is getting carried by the current of the events and chooses the path of least resistance. Struggle ? Well... There is some but everything is under the condition MC herself is willing to do.Right now for example Spoiler
she got caught climbing the wall outside (because she was using her former knowledge as an engineer to modify some mecha to earn money) so her credit got cleared and she might drop out of the academy however she is so nonchalant about it & when asked she says she will obtain the 1st place, extra credit so she won’t drop out.
[collapse]How to say this. Well, she is a reincarnated engineer but it is another world yet she doesn’t go to classes. She doesn’t plan ahead it’s just like watching a boat floating on a calm lake so far. I forced myself to read this for 3 days I keep dropping due to low interest and when I read to chapter 80 and realize it’s 80 out of a 100 I felt powerless. I don’t have the patience to remember or wait for this novel to update it was such a waste of my time, I read so far and nothing remotely interesting happened, no struggle, no nothing, again : no plan, just getting carried by the current while taking the path of least resistance.TBH, I have read many novels of reincarnated female recently, binge read them as most are completed now. Me, as a man, I loved them. The character development are great. Some I pitied, I cried, I laughed, I got angry or felt good for the MC. I discovered that I loved those & I didn’t care about the gender of the lead as long as you made me care about them. Of these many novels being more capable than men is often a completely normal thing so I don’t understand why is this the one viewed as the “only one” or “the one” novel that shows female characters are as good as male characters.
