you have all these awesome powers and not even bothering to experiment its limits? why not try practicing on the moon or outer space or among the asteroid belt?Īnd seriously, not talking to anyone? how can you live your life? if he used his telepathy then sure I can understand but NO! he didn't use squat, what if he has a question he just thinks of it and the teacher just assumes the questions he is asking by doing a russian roulette?
if the MC was a reincarnator I CAN UNDERSTAND HIS LAZY MOTIVATION-but. for someone so "powerful and OP", the MC doesn't show any interest on his own abilities: why not check out mars and see if you can terraform it? oh wait he wants to be low key and all that BS crap he's spouting. no motivation and all the interesting plots is left in the "early days when the MC was still below 15 years old and demons were rampant". Although in this case, the series probably doesn't deserve much better. So while it's in readable English, I wouldn't say this one is translated with the diligence I prefer to see. There were also blank footnotes on foreign-language terms that the translator apparently forgot to go back and fill in. I assume "Star City" and "Songhai City" are the same place, but I have no idea. It seems a little inconsistent on some of the finer details of the world, too, though I suspect some of this is on the translator's part. It isn't even very consistent - he puts himself at the center of attention "just to move things along", and, sure, that will move things along - in the direction that is least aligned with his stated goals in life. He can be summed up with "everything is troublesome and I just want to stay low-key." This can work for a straight-man to a bunch of crazy supporting characters and wild events, but that lack of enthusiasm otherwise tends to be infectious to the people reading it.
Wang Ling also just doesn't have much personality. In other words, it keeps the story from getting more interesting. And giving the protagonist the ability to modify people's memories? I don't like it - it keeps the plot from ever moving away from the status quo. I didn't see that here, except for a plot point taken from One-Punch Man. Of course, there are many series these days featuring overpowered characters, and the good ones have all sorts of good ideas to compensate for that lack of narrative tension. But this webnovel seems even less suited to running storylines. Personally, I prefer to read something with an ongoing storyline, so I tend to get tired of the disconnected chapters of a gag manga before long. You may not want to read a gag manga though. The manga of course benefits from being able to do visual gags, but it undeniably comes off better in a direct comparison. But in comparison, it's far less punchy - there was never anything that made me seriously crack up in what I read of this webnovel, but in Saiki Kusuo I had a real proper laugh in just the second chapter. more> derivative of the manga "Saiki Kasuo no Ψ Nan", so I went to look that up for myself, and I have to agree. I saw many comments stating that it was very. Like the character Lotus Sun giving a school speech. But I wasn't able to feel much enthusiasm for "The Daily Life of the Immortal King".įor a comedy series, several chapters seemed more like uninteresting filler, without really landing any good gags. A modernized world with cultivators out in the open, with products and advertisements, like spirit swords made by Nike - I thought that was a pretty fresh take. At best, I'd say some parts of this are kind of funny.
