Fantasy Workshop: Starting with Making Yukari Dolls

I feel something's off. After the "Moe Girl" series, the novels Fox wrote on Cat Station feature cross-dressing characters, but the protagonists' personalities are almost entirely devoid of male traits. It's not gender reassignment, but it's more like it is. It completely lacks the feel of the original "Moe Girl" series. After reading the "Finding a Master" series, and then reading this one, the protagonists of the two series have almost identical personalities. However, the change in writing style might lead to poor results. I quite liked that witch's story on Qidian before, but Fox said the results were dismal.

Endless Shennong, come out! 😡

Purple Maid almost made me lose my composure. The author still seems to enjoy suppressing the protagonist's combat power. When using puppets, the focus is either on quality—few but excellent puppets, stronger than the main character—or on quantity, with a large number of cannon fodder repeatedly harassing the protagonist. In the end, the protagonist's puppet, which is supposed to take ten years to develop, is just as low-star as those hastily made scraps. My suggestion is, instead of playing with a puppet, go fight. You're pretty good at boxing, why bother with puppets?

I don't know why, but reading Fox's new book doesn't give me the same immersive feeling as when I read Master's Abode and Moe Girl (maybe it's due to the length, and the world-building isn't as detailed as before, so it's less appealing?).

Can anyone tell me how this article is doing now? #(Seal)

Is it just my imagination? Although it's very retro, the protagonist's status is inexplicably high, unlike Yuuki and Yami whose morals dropped so quickly (the weak uke aspect). It's a bit like a master's mansion? But the status aspect has changed to that of a young master who went from starting from scratch in the first half of the Moonlit Night to becoming a second-generation Moonlit Night master, not afraid of getting into trouble. It tastes a bit strange. One thing is that I haven't read enough chapters yet. I'll savor it again later.

Did the author ever work as a puppeteer? Some of the writing is random and based on assumptions[1]. References [1] Reader 1483301390192214016. (May 17, 2023). Dilong. Qidian Chinese Website #(funny)

Is the protagonist really a puppeteer? It seems like the puppets aren't involved in the fights at all; everyone's just throwing punches.

Holy crap, the author is an old fogey! I read his books ten years ago.

This description feels like it's from 15 years ago.
