Description

At first, the Red Dragon Zogre just wanted to make some money. He engraved runes onto yo-yos, creating the “Silver Dragon from Beyond” with dazzling light effects! He enchanted trading cards to summon illusions, making a single “Blue-Eyed White Dragon” card worth more than a 6th-circle spell scroll. He gave Drow a magical guitar, igniting a “Region Invasion” rock music craze. Dwarves and elves now sit in the same room for LAN parties, while commoners and nobles cry over the same TV series. Dragon Slayer Knights? The dragons rented for their promotional videos are all actors from Zogre’s agency! Without realizing it, this dragon, who stopped resorting to violence, amassed a mountain of gold coins. The church accused him of corrupting people’s hearts, but the people chose to stand by his side. Facing the isolated, powerless centenarian pope, Zogre laughed mockingly: “Cultural victory, kid.”

My Thoughts on Evil Dragon: Choosing Cultural Victory to Make Money

First Impressions

Okay, so I dove into "Evil Dragon: Choosing Cultural Victory to Make Money" expecting a lighthearted romp, and that's pretty much what I got. The premise is simple: modern guy gets isekai'd as a red dragon and decides to uplift the new world using Earth's cultural and technological advancements. It's not the most original concept, but the execution is what matters, right? And for the most part, it delivers.

What Works Well

The pacing is definitely a strong point. The story moves along at a brisk pace, keeping things engaging without getting bogged down in unnecessary details. I especially appreciated how the protagonist approaches his situation. He's not some all-knowing, Mary Sue type who instantly masters everything. Instead, he recognizes his limitations and relies on experts, which feels refreshing and realistic. It's fun to see him laze around counting coins while his plans unfold! The world-building is solid, and the characters are well-developed, making the story feel immersive and believable, even with the fantastical elements. The blend of comedy, fantasy, and slice-of-life elements creates a unique and enjoyable reading experience.

Areas of Concern

While the lighthearted nature is a plus for many, it might not appeal to those seeking intense action or dramatic storylines. The focus is more on the slice-of-life aspects and cultural exchange, so thrilling moments are few and far between. If you're looking for something serious and full of high stakes, this might not be the novel for you.

Final Verdict

Overall, "Evil Dragon: Choosing Cultural Victory to Make Money" is a fun and engaging read. It's perfect if you're in the mood for something light, entertaining, and a bit different. The confident protagonist, the clever use of modern knowledge in a fantasy setting, and the well-executed world-building make it a worthwhile experience. I'd recommend giving it a shot if you're looking for a novel that doesn't take itself too seriously and offers a refreshing take on the isekai genre.
