Description
After transmigrating into a novel, Shen Jiangling became the vicious male supporting character with a tragic end in a danmei novel with the classic domineering president trope. He looked at the black card in his pocket, thought of his loving family, and stated that whoever wanted to be the vicious male supporting character can do it, he didn’t want to anymore! On his way home after finishing the act, Sheng Jiangling picked up a dog that was in a sorry state. The dog was particularly reserved, and it took him a lot of effort for the other party to warm up to him. Unexpectedly, when Shen Jiangling brought home a close friend’s golden retriever to temporarily look after, the reserved dog stared at the golden retriever for a long time. Then, he suddenly transformed into the villain of the novel, staring at him fiercely. “You have me, yet you still want to raise another dog?” Shen Jiangling: Excuse meow? What godly development is this?

My Thoughts on The Dog I Picked Up is the Villain
"The Dog I Picked Up is the Villain" promised a fluffy, lighthearted read, and for the most part, it delivered. It's the kind of story you can dive into when you need a break from heavier plots, something easy to digest without requiring too much brainpower. However, while the initial charm is undeniable, I found myself grappling with some repetitive elements as the story progressed.
First Impressions
The premise is undeniably cute: a transmigration into a world where the protagonist ends up adopting the villain as a dog. The blend of comedy, romance, and supernatural elements certainly piqued my interest. The early chapters are filled with adorable interactions, especially as the ML struggles to reconcile his domineering CEO persona with his canine form and burgeoning feelings.
What Works Well
The novel truly shines in its dedication to fluff. The romance between the MC and ML is sweet, bordering on saccharine, and the family dynamics are heartwarming. The MC's gentle nature and the ML's devotion create a relationship dynamic that's easy to root for. I especially enjoyed the comedic situations arising from the ML's jealousy and protectiveness, particularly when expressed in his dog form. The story avoids unnecessary drama, offering a peaceful reading experience that prioritizes the characters' happiness. Additionally, the swift resolution of conflicts with minor antagonists was a welcome change of pace, preventing the plot from getting bogged down in drawn-out revenge scenarios.
Areas of Concern
While the fluff is initially appealing, it can become repetitive. I found the plot somewhat lacking in substance, relying heavily on the central relationship without developing significant external conflicts or deeper character exploration. The MC's initial naivete and low self-esteem, while understandable, occasionally felt overplayed. Moreover, the ML's transition from villain to "wife simp" happens quite rapidly, which, while humorous, sacrifices some potential for nuanced character development. The story also felt longer than necessary, with some sections feeling like filler that detracted from the overall narrative.
Final Verdict
"The Dog I Picked Up is the Villain" is a decent choice if you're specifically seeking a light, fluffy romance with minimal conflict. It's a pleasant escape, but its lack of depth and repetitive nature might not appeal to readers seeking a more substantial story. I'd recommend it with the caveat that it's best enjoyed in small doses, rather than as a binge-reading experience.
