Description
Wen Ying, frail and sickly since childhood, found his greatest joy in gacha games. One night, after hundreds of failed attempts to draw an SSR, his towering rage summoned a demon. Expecting to be devoured, Wen Ying instead defeated the demon and became one himself. His great-grandfather sent a congratulatory message: “You are the hope of our clan! Strive to become the Demon King and fulfill our ancestral wish! I’ll send you to the demon realm to study.” Wen Ying replied, “I refuse.” His great-grandfather warned, “A young demon in the human world will weaken and die, either slain by exorcists or turned into a specimen.” Wen Ying relented, “…Let’s go.” As an ordinary Mirror Demon, aspiring to be the Demon King was like an underachiever dreaming of getting into Tsinghua or Peking University. Wen Ying immersed himself in his demonic powers, turning them into a card-drawing game. As a demon realm underachiever, to avoid failing his first class test, Wen Ying used his demon tail to hook the tail of a ferocious three-headed Hellhound classmate, signaling him not to challenge his rank. The Hellhound didn’t challenge Wen Ying, but his expression was odd. After class, the malevolent bird classmate explained, “When a demon hooks another demon’s tail with their own, it means ‘I like you.'” Wen Ying exclaimed, “Damn it!”

My Thoughts on Becoming a Demon After Getting Addicted to Card Drawing
"Becoming a Demon After Getting Addicted to Card Drawing" has been quite the rollercoaster ride! The premise alone is intriguing, and I was eager to dive into a world where card games could lead to demonic transformations. I've read a decent amount, and I'm ready to share my thoughts.
First Impressions
The initial chapters definitely grabbed my attention. The concept of a human thrown into the demon world is always appealing, and the MC's progression felt organic at first. I was excited to see how his card-playing skills would translate into demonic power. There's a certain charm to the fish-out-of-water scenario, and the academy setting promised interesting character interactions.
What Works Well
The core strength of this novel lies in its plot and characters. I found the main and side characters to be generally interesting, and the story had a good pace. The author clearly has a knack for creating a world with depth and foreshadowing. The fight scenes are engaging, and the moments where the MC outsmarts his opponents are genuinely fun to read. The "leveling up" of the MC from zero is a compelling aspect, making his journey to potentially becoming the next demon king an exciting prospect.
Areas of Concern
Unfortunately, the translation quality is a significant hurdle. The constant shifting of character names is incredibly distracting and makes it difficult to keep track of who's who. It's frustrating to have the flow of the story broken by these errors. Also, the male lead's personality is a bit off-putting. His tsundere tendencies can be grating. Plus, the relationship between the MC and ML seems rushed and lacks a certain depth. I didn't quite grasp how their feelings for each other developed so quickly.

Final Verdict
"Becoming a Demon After Getting Addicted to Card Drawing" has a lot of potential, but the translation issues and the MC's later character development are significant drawbacks. If you're willing to overlook the translation errors and can stomach the darker aspects of the MC's personality, you might find this novel enjoyable. However, be prepared for a bumpy ride. Overall, I'd say it's a mixed bag with some entertaining elements but also some serious flaws.
