Synopsis

(A light System + cultivating goddesses, watching competitors step by step into the hall of fame + passionate and inspiring, a slum girl becomes the greatest in the star region + explosive thrills, an epic tale of stardom filled with blood and tears)

After transmigrating to the future, Lu Lin takes over a once-prominent family on the verge of bankruptcy and specializes in recruiting the “rejects” that other powerful families don’t want:

Bai Xiaoxing, a defective product rated 58, repeatedly surpasses the talent ceiling set by the world.

Ye Tanhua, a Cinderella of lowly bloodline, breaks through the barriers of the bloodline hierarchy with a synchronization rate of just 65%.

Jin Yu, an injured veteran declared to have “three years left in her competitive career,” becomes a “phoenix” that keeps rising from the ashes.

When they carve their way through the leagues from the lowest rung

The armor debris on the C-rank field hasn’t even cooled, yet the dignity of B-rank powerhouses has already been crushed, and the throne of A-rank legends is beginning to crumble!

“Now, who still dares call them useless?”

Years later, when a reporter asks, “Boss Lu, what do you think of people calling you the ‘King of Bargain Finds’ and a ‘recycling center for rejects’?”

Lu Lin looks baffled. “I have no idea. All I know is that Starfall’s fans call me the, Legendary Godfather.”

(This novel focuses on competitive sports, passion, and inspiration. The synopsis may be brief and underwhelming, so please check out the story itself.)

So far, it's been pretty good and quite enjoyable to read, unlike traditional novels where a powerful enemy is suddenly introduced. However, the second goddess seems a bit off. First, my perception of the protagonist is that of a savior, someone who takes the lead, but the protagonist is completely focused on winning over Ye Tanhua, which feels a bit like a simp.

It's a great read, full of passion, dreams, and breaking down prejudices. Although I haven't seen Uma Musume Pretty Derby, some reviews say it's similar; do you think that's a good description? This book is different from Mecha Girls; there are no pilots, and the characters need to work hard on their own. I'd like to suggest some improvements to the chapters about Ye Tanhua's mental constraints.

The protagonist's early struggles and somewhat bizarre methods might displease some readers in the later stages, but his abilities are undeniable. He truly supports his family and forms the backbone of this ensemble piece, far from being a useless character like "Yu Xiaogang."

This is probably the best of its kind I've read. It really has a traditional sports feel; everyone loves a story of an underdog's comeback. But I want to digress a bit. I don't watch many sports, but in recent years I've only followed KPL. My favorite team is E-Star, and I've watched them go from a powerhouse to their current decline.

One of the most inspiring novels I've ever read, and also the best ensemble drama I've ever seen. I think it could totally be adapted into an anime. While reading each chapter, scenes would play out in my mind. If this book ever finishes, I sincerely hope it gets an anime adaptation. The character portrayals are superb; each character has their own story, experiences, personality, will, and transformation. I hope the author continues to write well, and most importantly, write more!

This is a mecha racing novel based on the Uma Musume Girls concept, and the second gray-haired monster is clearly a reference to Oguri Hat's design. However, the male protagonist is less of a main character and more of a tool for keeping the club running. As the club owner, he's only responsible for recruiting talent and making money; training is handled by the club's trainers.

A score of 6 is still too low for me. This novel is supposed to be telling a story, a story about "miracles." Whether it's the protagonist or the supporting characters, they all have their own core thoughts, rather than being mere plot devices. It effectively portrays the characters' emotions, something many novels lack.

While originating from "My Mecha Girls Are World-Class," this book surpasses it. As is widely known, "My Mecha Girls Are World-Class" is considered the pioneer of this genre. This book inherits most of the former's strengths, while its in-depth character development is refreshing, and its thematic exploration and character development surpass those of "My Mecha Girls Are World-Class."

The writing in the beginning is somewhat immature, even directly borrowing from other works. The writing improves significantly later on. The earlier parts are idealistic, while the later parts feel more realistic. The beginning is idealistic and beautiful, with everyone striving and everything seemingly improving.

The character design of Uma Musume is so useful, you know? 🍉 It's a rare female-centric sports novel that focuses solely on sports without a female lead. The main problem right now is that while it's an ensemble piece, there aren't enough developed opponents; only two or three seem to have a future.
