One word: amazing! The characters are well-developed, the protagonist is exactly my type—not mindlessly crazy, and the plot progresses very well. I've never seen a story on Tomato that I love so much. Author!!! Why is it gone? I want to read more!!! The ending felt rushed and disjointed, with explanations that seemed cobbled together and lacking character development.
This is amazing! It's the best book I've ever read! Xie Qi, please don't rub it in my heart! The author has created such a great character for Xie Qi—a morally bankrupt, purely ruthless, and purely fun-loving individual! This extreme interplay of clarity and madness is perfectly embodied in Xie Qi! The "brain in a vat" concept is also a first for me. In short, Xie Qi is the best!
Waaaaah, the main character is so crazy, but I love him so much! And there's Anri's loyalty too, it's so good! There's also a gentlemanly side to it, he's so handsome! A handsome and beautiful main character, who wouldn't love him? There's even a mental illness involved, and when I found out that the lady was a man, I was so excited—no, I mean the brother!
I absolutely love the chef in the first dungeon. He gives me the impression of a gloomy, handsome bad guy, who is also elegant and perverted. He enjoys killing because it allows his otherwise tasteless sense of taste to experience fear and despair. Games are the seasoning he adds to his "food," and a fun game is simply the most wonderful thing for him.
So crazy and exhilarating! I was laughing so hard my mouth almost split open when the main character went completely insane, it was so exciting! The aftereffects are pretty severe, though; I wouldn't recommend watching too much at once. After watching two episodes in a row, I feel like I'm going crazy too… Now all I want to do is laugh hysterically and shout "King…"
It's a long story, but it's really good! \(//∇//)\ It's the kind of story where you find it interesting at first, then you keep reading, and as you continue, you discover plot twists, subtle chills, and little surprises—basically, things I really enjoyed! The character relationships are also very well done, and the characters' personalities are incredibly well-developed.
It's great, every dungeon is novel [Learned something new]. There's no female lead, but you can ship them all [Note]. It only has 200,000 words and already has a 9.4 Rating—that's a huge improvement. The protagonist is mentally sound (?), But he's also quite eccentric (including killing himself). The setting of the main world is also very novel, and the protagonist is elegant [Full of joy]. The interactions are great, and he's absolutely in control of everything [You'll see].
It perfectly hit all my sweet spots! God knows how much I wanted to see this kind of charismatic villain—he's not a saint at all! Plus, it's a role-playing game, and the character he plays is incredibly appealing. It's just too little, 😢, not enough, not nearly enough for me to see.
This is so good! I can't wait for today's two chapters. The protagonist is incredibly charming; he's captivating from the very beginning—my beloved chef!!! The other characters also have their own distinct traits: some are timid, some are arrogant, and some are just plain crazy, all possessing super high combat abilities. The protagonist, on the other hand, is exceptionally intelligent.
This seems like a pretty good role-playing novel. It incorporates elements of horror and endless mystery, and unlike traditional rule-based infinite flow novels, it doesn't have as many rules. It belongs to the traditional escape-themed infinite flow genre (I don't know if rule-based dungeons will appear later; if they do, I'll probably revise my review 🍉).
