   The early survival storyline was very exciting, and the main setting was a university where there were many interesting interactions between the characters. The main characters helped each other, but the female lead was the highlight. I'll write more about the rest after I finish watching.

   As the title suggests, the book was quite unique at the time in the post-apocalyptic genre, utilizing national resources. The protagonist also has his moments of brilliance, making it worth reading.

   It's a low-fantasy Western fantasy drama, but later it leans towards palace intrigue and power struggles. I really enjoyed the process of exploring real history from the protagonist's perspective. It was written in great detail and the foreshadowing was very well done. The content included political struggles, changes of monarchy, and religious development, with complex power relationships. You can tell that the author put a lot of thought into the design. The characters are also quite realistic and three-dimensional. The protagonist is a stubborn and unyielding person who is constantly resisting and even seems a bit reckless. In addition, there are many supporting characters with varying degrees of depth and who leave a lasting impression. Although it's a romance channel, there are almost no romantic storylines, so you can probably watch it as if there's no couple.

   The female protagonist is very career-oriented. It's a book from a few years ago, but it doesn't feel too old-fashioned now. I'll reread it and write a proper review later.

   The world-building is fresh, incorporating many elements. The female lead is intelligent and worldly-wise. So far, the initial impressions of her entering the workplace are very good. I'll write more after I finish watching it.

   The Bloodstained Clock Tower mode is similar to other dungeons I've seen, but it's quite rare to find one where the entire book uses this mechanism. The dungeon storyline is quite exciting, and the game has other design elements as well. However, the romantic storyline is incompatible with my character, and I couldn't resolve it despite multiple attempts, so I gave up on it.

   Oh, my homeland I've never seen before! Those damned kidnappers! I want to go back to my home planet! [Crying emoji] One of the best things about the infinite flow genre, in my opinion, is that the author emphasizes the power, anger, and resistance of women. Having been bombarded with bleak narratives that only depict suffering without addressing its resolution, I'm usually quite apprehensive about similar preludes. However, this one is safe to read; there aren't any unpleasant moments.
