Description
“Leo, thank you for remembering and coming to find me first. I mean it.” “If you’re grateful, promise me you’ll never distance yourself from me again.” Having transmigrated into a villain role in a medieval-style BL novel, Chaeyi decided to survive and build good connections by carefully raising and sending back the main character, Leonard, who would otherwise be destined to kill him. However, it seems there was a bit of misunderstanding during their period of no contact. “Chaeyi, I clearly told you not to run away.” Years later, the once small and fragile boy returned, unrecognizable.

Raised Him to Be Filial but He Turns Out to Be a Yandere Review & Spoilers - Novel Translator
My Thoughts on Raised Him to Be Filial but He Turns Out to Be a Yandere
First Impressions
The premise definitely grabbed my attention: a transmigration story where the MC raises a child who later becomes a yandere. It’s a trope that can be either brilliantly executed or fall flat, and I went in hoping for the former. The European-esque setting and promise of complex family dynamics were also appealing.
What Works Well
I found the initial setup quite intriguing. The early stages of their relationship had a certain charm, and I appreciated how the author built the foundation for the ML's character. Some readers found the characters well-written, with good communication between the leads, which is always a plus in a romance. The MC's obliviousness, while potentially frustrating, felt genuine rather than forced, which made his interactions enjoyable. The story starts off strong and the premise is interesting.
Areas of Concern
However, my enjoyment waned as the story progressed. Several readers shared my sentiment that the plot felt somewhat disjointed. It felt as though the author introduced random events to keep the story going, but the end result was a story that lacked focus. I also struggled with the MC's naivete, especially given his supposed mental age. It stretched my suspension of disbelief a little too far. The ML's yandere tendencies also felt underdeveloped, lacking the tension and depth I was hoping for. Some suggested that the story might have benefited from exploring other character perspectives to enrich the narrative.

Final Verdict
Overall, Raised Him to Be Filial but He Turns Out to Be a Yandere is a mixed bag. It has a promising start and some genuinely enjoyable moments, particularly in the early stages of the characters' relationship. However, the plot becomes convoluted, the characters can feel inconsistent, and the yandere aspect is underdeveloped. If you're looking for a light read and aren't too concerned with plot coherence or character depth, it might be worth a try. However, if you have high standards for your novels, you might find yourself disappointed. I'd give it a tentative 3/5 stars.
