Beast Taming in a Water World: My Pets Can Evolve Without Limit

Since it's free for a limited time, I suggest making the plot a bit lighter. Every time I see a serious, profound, or sad scene, I feel awkward and just skip it. The core selling point of this book should be its world-building of a water-themed world, the various amazing aquatic pets, and the unique skills they possess in the marine environment.

Why is it that the first beast taming in all urban fantasy novels these days is a cat? I'm speechless. Eight out of ten are cats. Are all the animals except cats dead these days? I'm so tired of reading them.

A map of marine creatures? Aren't you afraid the Tibetan fox master will give you a pair of nunchucks? 🤭

The latest chapter is so bad it's off-putting. The protagonist's father is in a vegetative state, and the story builds up their close relationship beforehand. Then, every time they have resources, they bring out their father to "consider" whether to save him, but in the end, they never do. Either they let him get killed by fish, or they risk their lives for him, and then when they have the money to save him, they still don't save him, leaving him to lie there some more. Isn't that contradictory?

While you can't have a harem now, you also can't be gay.

I still can't accept the premise that beast tamers are useless, that taming beasts is everything, and that it's ultimately about taming beasts, not about controlling them.

It's still better than Pokémon, right? Those Japanese/Japanese anime/Naruto/Pokémon stuff makes me cringe; I always feel like I'm watching cartoons. It's too much for a thirty-something like me to watch cartoons.

Here's an explanation of where the "beast" in "beast taming" comes from. It refers to controlling a beast to fight or help. The master can have the ability to protect themselves, but the master and the beast should not be reversed. Otherwise, what's the point of having a pet? The master is like a commander or general, sitting in the rear directing the battle. Have you ever seen a commander or general run to the front lines?

It's clear the author has high ambitions, and the writing style is much better than the previous book. However, the protagonist's characterization is the same as in the first book, which I personally don't like. The author could easily write normally, but I don't know if it's to pad the word count, but they keep writing strange things.

This author is the first one whose names I've found increasingly awful; each evolved name sounds worse than the last.
