Why Does Someone Die in My Student Council Every Day?!

(Ignore the title) BT Clock's novel style is still as lighthearted as ever, but this time it's a heavy theme. From a setting perspective, it's impeccable. The inescapable fate and the defeated rebels perfectly constitute the basic elements of tragedy. In other words, it was destined to be a tragedy from the very beginning. Even before the novel is finished, the tragic ending has already been established; no matter who survives, this student council is destined to be incomplete. It's astonishing how such a vivid imagination could allow a tragedy to be described in such a lighthearted style, to the point where it makes you laugh and then want to cry...

Let's start with the strengths of this work. The sitcom format provides a relaxed reading experience. This innovative sitcom format expresses many things easily, which is a great creative touch. The multi-perspective writing is commendable; it's a very good technique that helps readers understand each character's thoughts, feelings, and goals. A single protagonist's first-person perspective often leaves things unclear, and an omniscient perspective makes it even harder to capture inner thoughts. However, the groundbreaking multi-perspective first-person narrative effectively solves this problem. The writing style is commendable, showing improvement compared to previous books, but the style still retains a strong "clock" feel, from 4 years...

Once the book was finished, nobody read it anymore; it felt forgotten, abandoned. Remembering my doubts when I abandoned it before, I came back to check, and it was already finished. Wanting to see the ending, I read it straight to the end. Spoilers suggest that I'm now indifferent to any kind of review. I initially had high hopes for this book because it showed me innovation I'd never seen before. After reading it, I was disappointed. The pacing was completely different; the first four volumes were so long, but the fifth and sixth volumes shortened so much. Characters who were developed with great detail in the beginning died off very quickly later, completely negating the foreshadowing. In reality, the story itself wasn't that complex...

Warning: This review contains spoilers. Dear Clock Master, I've been hesitant and agonizing over this text for several days. I initially wanted to post it in the comments, but then I thought it contained too many spoilers, and more importantly, some things felt too embarrassing to comment about, so I'll write it here instead... --------------------------------- (The text within the separator is a brief summary of the background and background information) ---------------------------------------- I don't read light novels much. The last time I read one was because I bought a Ki...

First, a shout-out to Clock! I've been reading Clock's books for a year now, like many others, after being recommended them by a certain hentai streamer. A year has passed like this, and I'm sorry I couldn't follow them daily, but I still silently subscribed and let them accumulate before reading them. This book is a very niche one, aside from its outdated tropes, illegal "critical hit" scenes, and the typical school life setting. Wait, is it really niche? It is, after all, most school life stories don't kill off that many people. But there were a few times I saw comments saying I didn't want so-and-so to die. As the second person to die, I'm truly envious of those who survived to the end. The above is the grudge of a minor character. I must say, the most exciting part of this book is...

Regarding the previous book review, I felt there were two issues. First, I don't think this qualifies as an episodic sitcom; something like Nyaruko-san would be more appropriate. Each episode feels like a new story, like Doraemon, right? Second, I think the multi-perspective writing refers to the same event, but this novel feels like a spin-off. Multi-perspective writing is a great technique, and I hope the author tries it. The difference in experience and subsequent feelings about the same event can greatly enrich the characters and foreshadow future developments, suggesting the two characters are drifting further apart on their path of conflict. The writing style of the lizardman section in Overlord was very interesting, I think...

I've been reading Chinese light novels for five years, and this is my first time writing a review, because I've never had more than twenty books in my collection 😝 The more I read, the more discerning my tastes become. I think character design is the most important element of all light novels, and this book clearly does a very good job 😉 By confining the setting to the student council office, the main characters' roles are very consistent, making character development—the most difficult part of ensemble novels—a breeze. The most important characters in the book so far are incredibly compelling 😏 Their personalities are very distinct. Honestly, I initially thought this book would develop into a light comedy with a happy ending, since Killer Academy is inherently surreal, and logic is...

Actually, I've read quite a few similar angst-filled works, including Madoka Kaname: Saya Kanojo, Fate/Zero, or Les Misérables, and other light novels. I feel the best ones are those that make you laugh through your tears. Let me just imagine one, and please excuse my wild imagination: it starts with Zuo Xinyue trying to open the door to leave: "Xinyue, don't go!" Hearing her desperate cry, the last glimmer of hope in her eyes, I ultimately couldn't take that step. I turned back and sat beside her bed. "It's so good you're back, I... Cough cough..." Perhaps due to the shock, she coughed up a mouthful of blood, staining the sheets beside her pillow. I helped her up and let her rest her head on my lap...

The following contains spoilers for my cousin, (.·_·.)ノ Some minor questions about the story: What volume are we in now? I haven't paid attention, but anyway, the two siblings are in this situation. The sister is dead. Is the brother genuinely in love with Xuexue, or is he just mentally disturbed? The sister-torture plot is typical of Zhong Feng's style. This makes me feel like Aurora was born to die. As the story progresses, there are more and more characters. Yueyue seems quite familiar with Keli-chan! Even though she wasn't described before! Keli-chan is cute, but it feels so abrupt! (╯°Д°)╯┻━┻ Suddenly a big… guild leader appears! Hongyu is so afraid of Ye Kongyu! And he…

I've been following "The Imperfect Daily Life Visited by the Goddess of Misfortune" since then, and the author is probably the one I'm most familiar with on SF (a Chinese online literature platform). Both books share a distinctive writing style: concise and exaggerated character commentary, very Japanese-style, especially the clock's inexplicable fondness for using the particle "ma," which enhances the quirky comedic effect. The plots are also quite tight, with each event seamlessly connected, preventing reader fatigue. However, compared to the previous work, "Student Council" feels somewhat lacking. Perhaps because "The Goddess of Misfortune" is closer to real-life experiences, the author can push the details to the extreme, to the point that the reader feels breathless with tension. The structure of "Student Council"...
