Filthy Black
By 黑色禁药
Description
All of a sudden, the man covered his eyes with his hand and mutedly laugh towards the sky. His smile was inconsolable and despairing. The falling rain had assaulted his throat while laughing before he finally lowered his head and broke into a bout of violent coughs. His eyes welled up with tears, but he continued to laugh. That laughter was more woeful than crying itself… They were never his, to begin with. That gentle smile. That caring look in the eyes. That comfort of embrace… They were never his! Never, ever had been!! He was just a clown! Laughable and expendable! The main character had already made his appearance. His current self wasn’t even worthy of being a substitute. Not to mention, he was dirty and broken. His face was now disfigured. So.… He had arrived at this world, lost his status, and lost his loved ones only to become a vessel―a vessel that temporarily carried the breath of life for another. And he thought that he could undertake that someone else’s relationship.

My Thoughts on Filthy Black
"Filthy Black" is definitely a web novel that leaves an impression. Diving into it, I knew I was in for something dark, and it certainly delivered on that promise. It’s a story that's not afraid to explore some truly disturbing themes, and while that might not be for everyone, I can appreciate the author's commitment to their vision.
First Impressions
Initially, I was taken aback by the intensity of the early chapters. The protagonist faces relentless hardship, and it's undeniably difficult to read. The constant abuse is jarring. However, there's a certain strength displayed by the main character that kept me going, a refusal to be broken that I found compelling.
What Works Well
Despite the heavy themes, the author crafts a world that feels surprisingly complete. The characters, even the morally questionable ones, are fleshed out with their own motivations and backstories. The way the MC navigates the treacherous landscape, holding onto a sense of self amidst constant adversity, is a testament to the character's resilience. I also found the plot, while complex, to be ultimately engaging. The relationships, even the twisted ones, have a strange sort of depth.
Areas of Concern
The sheer volume of explicit content, particularly the repeated instances of non-consensual acts, can become overwhelming. While I understand the author is exploring dark themes, the frequency with which these scenes occur can detract from the overall narrative and feel gratuitous at times. It's a delicate balance, and I felt it leaned too heavily into that aspect, potentially alienating some readers.

Final Verdict
"Filthy Black" is a challenging read, no doubt about it. It's not for the faint of heart, and I would strongly advise readers to check trigger warnings before diving in. However, if you're looking for a dark fantasy with complex characters, a resilient protagonist, and aren't easily disturbed by mature themes, then this might be a web novel that sticks with you long after you finish reading. Just be prepared for a rollercoaster of emotions. I'd give it a cautious recommendation, acknowledging its strengths and weaknesses.
