My Thoughts on I Am Overlord
"I Am Overlord" is a completed xuanhuan web novel that I decided to dive into, knowing full well it was going to be a wild ride. And a ride it was. It's got all the trappings of the genre: action, adventure, a touch of comedy, and yes, even a harem. It's definitely a novel that knows what it is and leans into it.
First Impressions
Initially, I was hooked. The story starts strong, with a good pace and an MC who isn't afraid to get his hands dirty. There's a certain charm in watching a protagonist who's both lucky and powerful, especially when he's using that power to settle scores. If you're into face-slapping, treasure-snatching, and sending arrogant antagonists to the afterlife, there's a lot to enjoy here.
What Works Well
The author's writing skill kept me engaged, even when the plot threads felt familiar. The world-building, while not groundbreaking, is solid enough to support the story, and I found myself enjoying the interactions between the MC and his loyal subordinates. The translation is well done, which definitely made the experience smoother and more enjoyable.
Areas of Concern
However, as I progressed, some cracks started to appear. The power scaling felt inconsistent at times, and I couldn't help but feel like the MC was too lucky. While some enjoy an OP protagonist, it did diminish the tension in certain situations. Moreover, the harem aspect felt a bit forced, with the MC sometimes making arbitrary decisions about who he accepts and rejects.

Final Verdict
Overall, "I Am Overlord" is a decent time-waster if you're a fan of the xuanhuan genre. It's not going to win any awards for originality, and the ending is definitely a weak point. However, the engaging writing style and the power fantasy aspect make it an enjoyable read, as long as you're willing to overlook some of its flaws. I'd give it a 3 out of 5.
