My Thoughts on How Can The White Cabbage Dig Up The Pig
"How Can The White Cabbage Dig Up The Pig" is a completed oneshot web novel that lured me in with its cute title and misleading tags. I went into it expecting a lighthearted Shounen Ai romance, but boy, was I wrong! This story is a tragedy through and through, so buckle up for some angst.
First Impressions
Initially, the story does seem sweet. We're introduced to a world of Ancient China, with the promise of blossoming romance between the main characters. The early interactions are filled with teasing and bickering, and the protagonist's cheerfulness is immediately apparent. I thought I was in for a fluffy, feel-good read. The initial chapters were charming, and the writing was solid enough to keep me invested.
What Works Well
The author does a decent job of building the relationship, even if it's a bit rushed. I can see how some readers were drawn to the characters, even describing them as cliché but well-written. The initial lightheartedness is effective in setting up the later tragedy, making the contrast all the more heartbreaking. The plot moves at a brisk pace, which is understandable given the oneshot format.
Areas of Concern
While the plot had potential, I found some of the character motivations questionable. The "love at first sight" trope felt a bit forced, and the characters' actions sometimes lacked a believable foundation. Also, the silent suffering trope got old fast. I was left feeling frustrated by the lack of communication and the stubbornness of the leads.

Final Verdict
"How Can The White Cabbage Dig Up The Pig" is a mixed bag. If you're a fan of Chinese tragedies with a focus on self-sacrifice and misunderstandings, you might enjoy this. However, if you're looking for a lighthearted romance, steer clear! The title and initial setup are definitely misleading. I'd give it a 3/5. It's not terrible, but it's also not particularly memorable. The plot is okay, but the characters are not well-developed, with questionable motivations.
