My Thoughts on Ore no Negai wa
"Ore no Negai wa" certainly left an impression, especially considering its brevity. This isn't a sprawling epic; it's more like a potent shot of distilled storytelling. I went in expecting a simple isekai premise, but I found something much more thought-provoking.
First Impressions
Honestly, when I saw the synopsis – reincarnated with a wish – I braced myself for another power fantasy. However, the incredibly short length intrigued me. It felt like a challenge: could the author deliver a compelling narrative in just two chapters? I decided to take the plunge, and I'm glad I did.
What Works Well
The core strength of "Ore no Negai wa" lies in its twist. It's a sharp, impactful turn that recontextualizes everything that came before. The story deftly explores themes of greed and consequence in a way that lingers in your mind long after you finish reading. The contrast between the two chapters is also quite striking. One path leads to a somewhat lighthearted outcome, while the other plunges into darkness and cruelty. Both routes, however, effectively highlight the dangers of unchecked desire. For such a short story, it really makes you think about the potential pitfalls of getting everything you wish for.
Areas of Concern
My main hesitation stems from the story's reliance on the protagonist's choices feeling somewhat... contrived. The narrative hinges on a specific interpretation of the wish, and it's easy to imagine alternative wording that could have avoided the pitfalls. It can leave you pondering the "what ifs" instead of fully absorbing the intended moral. The impact of the story lessened as I was left wondering why the MC didn't attempt to find a loophole or a way out of his predicament.

Final Verdict
Despite some minor reservations about the protagonist's choices, "Ore no Negai wa" is a worthwhile read. It's a quick, punchy story with a dark edge and a clear moral. If you're looking for a thought-provoking short story that will stick with you, I recommend giving this one a try. Just be prepared to confront the uncomfortable consequences of unchecked ambition.
