After the Succubus Became a Fake Young Master That Everyone Disliked

My Thoughts on After the Succubus Became a Fake Young Master That Everyone Disliked

This novel is a quick and easy read, perfect for when you want something light and fluffy. I went in expecting a fun, low-stakes story, and that's pretty much what I got. It's definitely not a deep dive into complex world-building or intricate plot lines, but it’s a pleasant way to pass the time.

First Impressions

The premise definitely grabbed my attention: a succubus becoming a fake young master? Intriguing! I was hoping for some clever schemes and maybe a bit of chaotic energy, but the story leans more towards a relaxing, slice-of-life vibe with a focus on romance.

What Works Well

The romance between the MC and ML is definitely a highlight. It's sweet and relatively low-angst, which is a nice change of pace. The MC's carefree personality also adds to the charm. He's not overly ambitious or dramatic; he's content to just be himself and let things unfold. The side characters, like the doting family members, are fun and supportive, even if they don't get a ton of screen time. I especially enjoyed the comedic undertones throughout the story. It never took itself too seriously, which made it an enjoyable experience.

Areas of Concern

While I enjoyed the lighthearted nature of the story, I did find myself wanting a bit more depth in certain areas. The world-building, particularly regarding the succubus origins and the fantasy world, felt somewhat underdeveloped. I also felt that the premise had some wasted potential. The "real young master" situation is glossed over pretty quickly. The MC's lack of agency might not appeal to everyone. He's very passive, letting the plot happen to him rather than actively driving it. Some might find this relaxing, while others might find it frustrating. For me, it was a bit of both.

Final Verdict

After the Succubus Became a Fake Young Master That Everyone Disliked is a decent novel if you're looking for a short, sweet, and easy read with a focus on romance. Don't expect complex plots or deep character development, but if you're in the mood for something light and fluffy, this might just hit the spot. I'd give it a solid 3.5 out of 5 stars.
