My Thoughts on After Transmigrating Into the Book, I Raised the Sickly Side Male Character to Be the Yandere
Alright, let's dive into "After Transmigrating Into the Book, I Raised the Sickly Side Male Character to Be the Yandere." This title is a mouthful, but it definitely grabbed my attention! I've seen a fair bit of buzz around this one, so I went in with some expectations.
First Impressions
Initially, I was intrigued by the premise. A modern woman transmigrating into a xianxia novel and raising the future villain? Sounds like a recipe for some serious chaos and maybe a little bit of reverse harem fun. The early chapters definitely had that cute, comedic vibe, and I was ready for a lighthearted read with some dark undertones.
What Works Well
The humor is definitely a strong point. I found myself chuckling at the ridiculous character settings and the interactions between the female lead (FL) and her "coal-ball" tag-along, which seems to be a quirky and deadly beast companion. The translation seems to be well-done, capturing the original humor and adding helpful notes for those unfamiliar with xianxia tropes. The story also seems to deliver on the yandere male lead (ML) promise, with a possessive and obsessive love that some readers might find appealing.
Areas of Concern
Okay, so here's where things get a little dicey for me. The age gap between the FL and ML is a significant issue. While the novel handwaves it with the "time doesn't matter in cultivation worlds" excuse, it still feels a bit icky, especially since she raises him from childhood. The plot progression can also feel rushed. One moment the ML is a neglected child, and the next, he's inexplicably clingy. Then there's a 16-year time skip, and suddenly, he's head-over-heels for the FL. It feels like we missed some crucial character development.

Final Verdict
Overall, "After Transmigrating Into the Book, I Raised the Sickly Side Male Character to Be the Yandere" is an okay read. It has its moments of humor and intrigue, but the problematic age gap, rushed plot, and potentially toxic relationship dynamics hold it back. If you're a fan of yandere male leads and can overlook some of the more questionable elements, you might enjoy it. Otherwise, proceed with caution. I'm giving it a cautious 3/5 stars.
