Review Detail of HooliganReader in The Domineering Glutton Of The Future

I’m currently at chapter 153 and I have to say, what you expected at the beginning is what you get. And in case y’all haven’t experienced the beginning, all I can say that it’s CRAP. Though the story does improve a little further in, it still isn’t a very good read. The crappiness in the beginning is the MC being so naive and impulsive when some random dude egged her on, she just took a bet without knowing what she was getting into which erked almost every reader of the novel. I think from then on the preconceived judgement has been formed and so the critical side of me has been unleashed! The crappiness later on is as follows: 1. The Mary Sue-ness of the story. I’ve always been all for Mary Sues (I don’t really like it when my MC isn’t OP, so that’s saying something) but this MC, sigh I don’t even know what to say. She is simply lucky in every way and just randomly knows how to cook stuff (which leads to the next point). Her unfounded golden fingers/ abilities is what makes the Mary Sue-ness so unpleasant. It’s illogical and random. Her character is low-key white lotus-ey too. Everyone (who hold some semblance of power, mostly male) who sees her sees that she somewhat “different” and finds her “interesting” and I mean EVERYONE and the most ridiculous part is, even what she does is normal and seems like nothing much, they be like ooo my interest is piqued! BLUGGGEEHH! It’s because every other person you’ve met have brain holes!. It feels like a 13 year old writing a Wattpad story here URGHHHHH 2. There is no proper character build up and clear backstory. Most of the cultivation Mary Sue novels have some backstory where she’s an assassin/ doctor/ poison master/ special forces commander or for those interstellar/ modern day ones where the MC is probably a Film Empress or world renowned chef or something. But based on what I understand from the backstory (as of Chapter 153), she is either in her late teens or early to mid twenties in her previous world and her occupation is an orphan. That’s all we know about her. Which is so stupid because for some odd reason she knows how to cook all kinds of nonsense. Wells at least we have a reason for her childish temperament and kiddy retorts 3. The banters between characters are so stiff that it feels forced. What’s there to add. Whether it’s between “brothers”, between owner and pet or between leader and subordinate their interactions are so unnecessary and try hard at being funny/ witty. Think scripted interactions between two hosts. Also, the MC and side characters feel touched at the most ridiculously normal actions. BRAIN HOLES. 4. The romance is SHIT. I get that love at first sight is a thing for Mary Sue novels but this…he fell in love with her because he saw a calm light in her eyes when she was held hostage… the fudgeeeee? Then he became obsessed it was like he was possessed. The worst part is, he knows she’s a minor (I think by our age range she’s like 8 years old and he’s like 21 but at the same time since she’s “developed” it’s a grey area) and he’s super lustful and forceful towards her. At least she’s reacting in a normal way. I mean I’m usually ok with age gap (the not legal kind) and forced romance but I need a little something to work with a least. This….sigh 5. The antagonists are SHIT. They are (mostly) drop dead gorgeous sluts who are arrogant, entitled, self absorbed and lustful. I’m not dissing them, this is exactly how the author wrote them. They for some odd reason took a look at the MC and decided that she ain’t shit and needs to be put in her place. They’ll try to entice any handsome men around her and are faceslapped in a ridiculous way after they have lost in a childish banter with the MC. Absolutely RIDICULOUS! 6. The interstellar era is so backwards and the people are ridiculously dumb. Sigh, with their ridiculously futuristic technology, they couldn’t figure out the cause of gout? They can compress the necessary nutrients into a capsule but they can’t add some iodine in it?? As for the dumbness of the people Exhibit A: when cameras were rolling, these FAMOUS (like super duper famous) female celebrities can’t even pretend and just have bij fights and showed their ugly sides on camera. Like…? SIGH. EVERY one of the bij antagonist is just for the author to contrast how pure and elegant and cute (honestly can one even be elegant and cute at the same time) the MC is. BLUEGH! 7. Ingredients plot holes. The author even needed to find oil and salt for the MC. How the hell did sugar come about? Side note who the hell knows how to manually process oil? Apparently this MC with no background whatsoever. There are too many bad stuff about this novel I don’t even know why I’m continuing on. But on a positive note, the concept of the story is very very interesting and the overall flow of the story is quite decent. It’s just the characters, the romance, the interactions, the brain holes….S-FUDGING-IGH
