pluviophiliac's manga / #darling shapeshifters(139)

this is so good!!! edit: lmao, this guy is seriously funny. his apathetic, indifferent personality fascinates me. and this story’s PACKED with other intriguing characters, too! in case it wasn’t already obvious, i especially love cale!!! he’s such a cunning savage, lol. i’m very much looking forward to future chapters and to find out where all this is going. <33 edit: can’t believe this is all the commentary i’ve left thus far. what an embarrassment… this is HIGH. QUALITY. WRITING. and despite my lack of depth in this poor excuse of a review, just know that it’s absolutely worth the read!

broooo, this is literally SO. FUCKING. GOOD. my god, way better than i thought it’d be! i’m amazed!!! actual comedic GOLD, at that. thank you, dear creator, for this wannabe-evil-dark-mage-transmigrator-blessing-in-disguise or whatever. either way, i’m living for every second of it. <33

i’ve been obsessed with these plot lines lately, lol. hopefully, this one in particular won’t disappoint! edit: my god. i’m not even past the prologue yet and i’ve already been swept off my feet, sheesh. i’ve got chills, bro!!! this is bound to be incredible and i’m so ready for it. fuck meeee if i’m not weak for overpowered MCs. edit #2: welp…not too sure how i feel about it now, to be honest. i’m not particularly fond of such fast pacing for stories within this genre… (not unless it’s realistic and relevant progress which makes sense for said story.) plus, he’s way too overconfident. confidence is nice, but arrogance is another ordeal. i do love me some strong and powerful characters, but it feels as though he’s relying on his past lives a bit too much for my liking. said notion would’ve be fine if he wasn't acting so damn arrogantly with such little experience. an outsider’s reliance would’ve actually been preferred at this point in time given his history, skills and innate characteristics. he has little-to-no combat or teamwork experience and it shows. i get that he’s ‘proud’ or whatever and wants to grow stronger quickly, but man… just chill out a bit, lol. focus on mastering the skills your teachers are trying to teach you instead of letting your greed and impatience get you into trouble!! anyway… oh well, lol. i’ll be sticking around nonetheless! i’m only on chapter 16 thus far, after all. still lots of room for improvement! i really want to like this story, and i mostly do, but it is what it is. i’ll be anticipating some nice character development, if nothing else! i'm still giving this a five star rating, so that enough should be able to speak for itself, haha. edit #3: ohhhh, nevermind. i understand now, heh. anyway, you keep growing on me more and more, little ranker boy!!! we shall have to wait and see what happens in the future… but i’m enthusiastic about it. ;)

this looks epiiiic. consider me excited! edit: wowza, this dude really is a powerhouse. my only complaints at his point in time are the following: why the hell does he keep talking to himself as much as he does? i don’t mind it at all as long as it’s either required or generally realistic, but he’s literally explaining things to himself that don’t need explanation. the other thing which kinda bothers me is just how effortlessly he’s creating skills. he’s not even trying… which means there’s little-to-no room for character growth at this point in time. he’s just doing everything perfectly. i find that a bit bothersome and tedious. don’t get me wrong, i looove overpowered MCs, but this just feels… out of place. it’s like he knows things he shouldn’t be able to know. usually, if an MC’s this powerful, said MC would’ve usually worked their way up to the top—whether it was in a past life or a current one. i know this MC did reincarnate, but i don’t know… it just doesn’t feel all that fitting. but who knows? perhaps i’m missing something here. anyway!!! i’m loving the story regardless. i’ve stumbled across quite a few stories with similar plot lines in the past, and i’ve always ended up being ‘converted’ later on either way. i don’t expect things’ll be much different this time around! especially since i’m already enjoying myself. i’m excited to continue reading!

well, it’s pretty decent! i love tsundere males. <33 probably would’ve LOVED this manhwa if only there were proper english translations out there… it’s been awhile since i’ve (properly) read translations of such poor quality, so that’s a shame. maybe one day there’ll be better ones available!
