My Thoughts on I Became the Terminally Ill Character in My Friend’s Academy Novel
Okay, let's dive into "I Became the Terminally Ill Character in My Friend’s Academy Novel." This is one of those titles that immediately grabs your attention, and after spending some time with it, I've got some mixed feelings. It's a completed story, but the translation is still ongoing, so keep that in mind.
First Impressions
The premise is definitely intriguing: our MC transmigrates into a friend's novel as a character with a terminal illness. However, it seems the "terminal illness" is more of a life-force-draining ability, which I found to be a clever twist. The initial chapters had me hooked with the MC leveraging his knowledge of the original plot to survive and train. I was ready for a fun ride!
What Works Well
What I enjoyed most were the characters. While they might not be the most complex, they form a charming group. I can see why some readers became so invested in their story. There's a certain addictive quality to the interactions and the humor that stems from the characters' strong archetypes. The MC's internal commentary on the tropes, both subverted and played straight, adds a layer of self-awareness that I appreciated. It’s clear that the author is having fun playing with familiar fantasy elements. Also, the early focus on the MC finding ways to overcome his weakness through knowledge and training was pretty engaging.
Areas of Concern
However, the novel wasn't without its shortcomings. At times, the plot felt a bit cliché, and the school drama could be a bit much. I can see how some readers might find it juvenile or even emotionally stunted. The MC, while trying to be cunning, sometimes comes across as naive, and his actions can feel inconsistent. It feels like the author tries to make him a "good guy" without actually giving him the agency to be one, leading to some frustrating moments where he sits on the sidelines. Plus, the humor might not land for everyone, and some might find the dialogue and insults a bit too tame.
Final Verdict
Overall, "I Became the Terminally Ill Character in My Friend’s Academy Novel" is a mixed bag. It has moments of brilliance and genuine charm, particularly in its characters and trope subversion. However, it also suffers from cliché plot elements, inconsistent character actions, and potentially juvenile school drama. If you're looking for a lighthearted, trope-filled academy story with a self-aware MC and a focus on character interactions, this might be worth checking out. But be prepared for some tonal inconsistencies and moments that might leave you scratching your head. I'd give it a solid 3.5 out of 5.
