Lan Nuo is transported into an animated adaptation of a superpower battle manga. To escape his destined death, he needs to become popular.
It doesn't matter that he's an ordinary person without any special abilities. Like the many manga-world veterans before him, Lan Nuo can pretend to have precognition by watching real-time comments and change his fate against all odds
if only he could adjust the number and opacity of the comments, and if only the original manga for this anime weren't so popular.
What do you mean, the moment I get near the main cast, the whole screen fills with [Aaaaaah] and colorful fan chants, blinding me in real life?!
After finally getting rid of the main cast, who mistook him for a blind man and tried to help him, Lan Nuo gazed at his restored vision and nearly wept with joy.
He immediately abandoned his strategy of joining the main cast to gain popularity and had to try another route.
As everyone knows, although the villainous Demon King is also an extremely popular character, the villain's side is mostly shown through flashbacks to keep up the suspense.
In other words, the villains aren't livestreamed in real time, and they won't be blinded by comments...
So welcome your new big bad, main cast!
Lan Nuo, still seeing comment afterimages even with his eyes shut, thought through gritted teeth.
However, while working with an on-and-off view of the world, giving advice to both sides, and even doing more work for the villains... Lan Nuo painfully discovered something he really didn't want to face.
Why does he have fan chants too?!
Is this the price of becoming a popular character?
