My Disciple Consumes Too Much

My Thoughts on My Disciple Consumes Too Much

"My Disciple Consumes Too Much" presents a unique premise: a transmigration story where our protagonist starts as... a pig. Honestly, that alone piqued my interest. The blend of comedy, romance, xianxia, and yuri elements promised a potentially delightful read, and while it has its charms, it also stumbles in some key areas.

First Impressions

The initial chapters definitely threw me for a loop. The unusual starting point with the MC as a pig being adopted by an ultra-powerful, ice-cold deity is certainly different. I was intrigued to see how the author would develop this strange master-disciple relationship. The quirky premise and the initial lightheartedness were enough to keep me reading for a while.

What Works Well

The core concept is undeniably creative. The idea of a terminally ill person reincarnating as a pig and then getting adopted by a beautiful immortal is just bizarre enough to work. I appreciated the potential for comedy arising from the MC's initial predicament and the developing dynamic with her master. The story hints at a devoted love interest and a cute story, which are definite draws for many readers, including myself. There's a certain charm in the master being the more powerful, yet somewhat ditzy, character.

Areas of Concern

However, I can see where some readers might find issues. The MC's characterization seems to be a sticking point. There's a fine line between "innocent" and "naive," and it seems the MC might lean too heavily into the latter. A lack of character growth and emotional outbursts followed by immediate calm would definitely be frustrating to witness. The supposed "big shot" master's inaction in the face of obvious threats also feels like a disservice to her character, potentially making her seem useless despite her immense power. This could lead to a frustrating reading experience where the plot is artificially prolonged due to character incompetence.

Final Verdict

"My Disciple Consumes Too Much" has the potential to be a fun and engaging read, thanks to its unique premise and the promise of a sweet, unconventional romance. However, the execution seems to be uneven. While the novel has a lot of good things going for it, the issues with characterization and plot progression might deter some readers. I'd recommend approaching this one with cautious optimism, appreciating the quirky humor and unique premise while being prepared for some potential frustrations along the way.
