The Winner of Life Begins as a Shadow

The substitution mechanic is boring. If everything is replaced, and everyone around you is replaced with a stronger person, then you're truly invincible. What's the point of this novel? Don't you ever think about how to grow? And then there's the act of impersonating someone else, living someone else's life, and being with those women while thinking about and remembering them. Doesn't that disgust you? Doesn't it make you feel nauseous?

Why are you fighting Lord Shadow? Why don't you fight Ainz Ooal Gown?

The male lead's combat power seems to fluctuate wildly. In the second season finale, Sid was already touching the soles of a planetary-level opponent. But in this book, the male lead seems to be someone who can't beat anyone and can't afford to mess with anyone. 🤔

Holy crap, I thought you were up to something during the May Day holiday, but you just gave me a huge mess, that's disgusting!

Using too many substitute cards and fusion cards makes it impossible to retain the uniqueness of the characters. I can hardly bring the characters into the original work anymore. It feels like the author is just indulging in self-indulgence and making things complicated. It's so rare to find someone who writes about the power of shadows. Ugh.

There are too many flaws! The fact that everyone knows about the substitute card greatly increases the likelihood that the protagonist replacing Shadow will be exposed. Later, the replacement of the Second Princess with someone who has no memory after her death, in my opinion, is essentially a different person. And the subordinates acting on their own initiative didn't seem to cause any problems! The writing is clearly very good, but the plot is truly awful. Dropped!

It was alright at first, but then it completely went haywire. It kept barking whenever the system issued a task. It was mentioned at the beginning that tasks could be abandoned and the player could live directly in the task world, but I was unwilling to give up the chance of immortality. Also, if you're dissatisfied with the task assignments, you should delve deeper into the task world itself.

The Shadow actually abandons the premise that the world's favorite son can have his wishes fulfilled. What's most impressive is his self-discipline and execution in order to become a Shadow-level user. He was constantly striving to become stronger and thinking about becoming stronger. Even as an ordinary person, he was always learning new knowledge and training.

After reading chapter 133, I feel this is utterly absurd. Devil Fruits are supposed to transfer immediately after the host dies. There's no such ridiculous condition as the corpse turning to nothingness before the transfer. If such a condition existed, the Five Elders wouldn't have imprisoned those great pirates on the sixth floor; they would have simply killed them and had Aokiji or someone else…

If you take good care of Mio Takamiya after she is born in Date A Live, you can destroy a star. Or, once the protagonist has some strength, Mio Takamiya can wipe out the remaining four wizards, find the method to create a spirit, create a female clone, and be born in the form of a spirit. Wouldn't you then have both your wife's power?
