    It's alright. The plot feels a bit simple and the writing is just average, but it's sweet and not angsty. The TV series adaptation is very faithful to the source material, and it's very enjoyable to watch. I've watched it several times. However, the detective plot is a bit simple and the ending is rushed.

    It's great! A hilarious and absurd story! Very humorous! The male and female leads are definitely heterosexual (BG), and there are no non-BG couples. However, people with very high aversion to certain things might not be suitable for reading it? After all, it includes a series of settings such as female-to-male transmigration, male-to-female transmigration, and rebirth.

    It's alright. I don't like the writing style. It felt slow, but I managed to read it. The second half was quite good. It's a pity that the ending was too rushed. It ended very suddenly... Overall, it's still sweet. It's a mutual relationship without misunderstandings.

    It's alright. The first half is quite humorous, but the second half gets a bit dry, and the ending feels rushed. The plot is also quite simple, with some logical issues. If you don't have high expectations, it's watchable. The romance is smooth sailing with no angst.
