I Took Out a Loan, Then Became a Magical Girl

If my wish could come true, even if it meant being gender-swapped into a magical girl and living a life of eight-hour workdays, only two days off a week, a two-hour lunch break, and triple pay for overtime! Faced with the despair of the world, I'd be willing to become a witch! 😭

The exploitation of people in this god-like world is so severe that even the leaders would weep, and the emperors would be utterly astonished. Oswald came here to establish interstellar colonies and was hailed as a savior. Arasaka Corporation was named the most ethical company of the year. Shiro Tsuyoshi came here and immediately became the most benevolent emperor in history.

From what we've seen so far, as a protagonist with the moral character of the early 21st century, despite being influenced by the incubator, it still retains a tiny bit of humanity (I think, but that would probably make it an abnormal individual). However, it is essentially the most morally upright character to date, and the people of this world have a much higher tolerance for despair than those in the 21st century.

It's hard to imagine this is a subject matter within the East Asian cultural system. You yourself can't even do these things, yet you're using them to tempt others. 😰

It's very well written, and it matches my experience as a Cupid.

The plot progresses a bit slowly. Following Kyubey's usual pattern, shouldn't she first make a wish and instantly become a magical girl, brimming with hope, then try to show off only to be proven wrong and become a weakling, constantly hunted down and forced to remain invisible?

This is the first time I've ever really hoped that Kyubey could contract a magical girl in this place. It seems that even monsters have their own worlds where they wish to exist. In some worldviews, Kyubey has even become a saint.

Just as robbing a black market shop is acceptable, why can't robbing others? This is the bare minimum of morality in this crappy cyberpunk world, so why not just go door-to-door collecting protection money? Go to the poorest areas (the rich have plenty of money, but the poor have a steady stream). If they can't pay, just demolish their buildings and sell them to quickly pay off their loans.

The books on the charts used to be all about action and classic romance, but now they're all getting darker and darker. Even a nobody like Gu Zhenren has been unearthed and become popular again. It seems the social environment has changed, and so have the books people like to read. 😵

Unless your subject matter is so novel that it deserves its own section, it's all stuff that others have already written. So why isn't it common? It's hard to guess. The end credits blame the book's termination on people who don't like the plot. Why don't you think about why there are more people criticizing you than praising you? The money spent by readers who can accept WL dying is real money, but the money spent by readers who can't accept WL dying isn't real money?
