Tokyo Life Starting as a Child Star

I was initially impressed by the writing quality of this new author. The system simulation section of "The Kidnapped Natsuko" was indeed excellent; it could easily be considered the best novel I've read this month. But then I checked and realized it's by an experienced author, He Feng!

If you don't understand the plot and you arrange for the protagonist to cross-dress, you might please some people's tastes, but you'll also annoy others. Perhaps I belong to the segment of the audience that the author has abandoned. Since you've chosen to be gender-bending, then goodbye.

It's still a problem with the subject matter. The protagonist's character is locked into the role of a "child," which means that this kind of book is destined to be unrelated to most well-known movies, at least most movies have adult protagonists. Watching the protagonist, a child in his early teens, navigate various social situations is both funny and bizarre.

The beginning was alright, but it got increasingly boring towards the end. The title clearly starts with "child star," yet it keeps focusing on that role, and it gets more and more absurd. A dozen adults, mostly stunt performers and martial arts actors, fight an eight or nine-year-old child and get instantly defeated.

Is the author a younger sister? For male-oriented content, there's no need to give the male lead a cute personality (this is important). The satisfying aspects of system-driven wish-fulfillment stories are also misplaced. I recommend watching an anime called "Want to Become a Shadow," where the style of showing off by the Shadow Master is what men enjoy.

I don't know how to describe the ending where the main character is 10 years old.

Or was it intentional? What about the Swordsman Chronicles? What about the main storyline? You're just writing random nonsense. Or are you trying to reduce the book's popularity because it's so high? 😅

It's that familiar feeling of stomach pain!

1. The protagonist's simulated life, powered by cheat codes, was even incorporated into real life by the author. 2. This author writes about stock trading. There are female characters with ambiguous relationships with the protagonist in the early episodes, but the ending turns into a single female lead. Those looking for a harem story can skip this. 3. The later plot was rather weak.

The protagonist has no ability to determine the direction of the story in The Sims; he is simply led through a CG sequence by the system. The most ridiculous thing is that the system then hypocritically gives the protagonist's behavior a score, without knowing what it is based on. The basic premise is flawed, and it has a touch of literary sensibility. Its strength lies in its mature writing style. If you don't mind this system that's all show and no substance, then it's perfectly readable.
