Young Master's PoV: Woke Up As A Villain In A Game One Day

Its very rare, that a webnovel gets soo good, that you lowkey get so invested, you wait for the next chapters with gusto. This novel is one of those rare few novels.

There's subtle but strong character writing. Samael is an unrepentant scumbag, but when you know whats actually going on behind that mind of his, you can't help but root for his egoistical arrogant a*s.

As of the time of writing this, several reviews have downvoted this novel with little to no explanation for why. And the accounts seem to have been made almost the same day as the novel. So... its probably part of a targeted downvote campaign. I dont get why anyone would bother doing that, on here of all places. I mean novelfire is free, it wont even benefit any authors to do s*it like this here. But oh well...

NOTE- WHILE I LOVE THIS NOVEL, I WOULDNT GIVE IT MORE THAN 4.2/5 AS IT STANDS CURRENTLY. BUT I SHALL BE GIVING MY SCORE AS 5/5 TO COMBAT THE FALSE REVIEWS.

Idk what the negative reviews are about. They're prolly mass review from a single person with multiple alt. I've read almost all the posted chapters and in this genre it is one of the best ongoing novel.

The mc is arrogant and narcissistic, but he has brains when he needs to act intelligently. All his plans are well-thought and laid out bare, so there are almost no asspulls.

Side characters are also amazingly fleshed out. Give it a chance. Or don't if you don't like arrogant MCs.

fight the bombings. Idiots like him do not learn but we who like this novels need to show our support and getting it's review back up is one of the ways.

Honestly, this novel is an absolute gem. I truly can't understand why anyone would go to the extent of creating fake accounts just to spread negativity about it. The story is engaging, the writing is compelling. it truly deserves far more recognition than it's getting. If you are on the fence about this novel, I genuinely encourage you to give it a chance!!!!

This is a High - Peak novel. I read it when there were less than 10 comments in the Comment section so without bias and thoroughly enjoyed it. 10/10 for me. Funny, smart and arrogant MC. Read it without bias. And as there's only 200 something chapters right now it will get better and better in the future.....

Just to balance everything I giving it a 3.5  some trolls are giving 0.5 it's a 3 or 3.5 star novel come on guys appreciate someone's work.

Good translation, good fights and is funny. Have nice ego flex. Nice read 🥵

honestly there's a lot of 0.5 or low reviews like that just to spite the people who actually enjoy this novel? odd but I can see how it appeals to some and doesn't to others, but the type it doesn't appeal to are more on the narrow minded side? 

the novel is slow paced that much is true but even lotm and other big novels are slow paced, I'm not saying it's at lotm level or this that but here's the thing a lot of good novels are slow paced to build the world before diving in, this is the type of novel that stretches to a thousand chapters and more, it gets way better after a hundred chapters but I can see how most drop it before that and simply chalk it up to generic and go back to reading novels where the mc instantly aura farms 🤯 and all the side characters misunderstand and perceive him as strong etc the usual. And I agree, I also enjoy those kind of novels to a certain extent, who doesn't but it doesn't mean this novel is bad either. 

The writing is very good the characters so far have been fleshed out and like I said it's slow paced because it takes it times with character interactions world building and doesn't skim over things much, if in alot of academy novels its "so the mc does a and b and c now he's fighting the boss" this novel describes a b and c fully and then also adds a d before the main thing, so alot of setup basically. I feel like most don't appreciate the fleshing out of side characters, too used to everything being about the mc and the only relevant characters being women and mc who only aura farms in front of them.

Another thing I see is micheal hate and the lily thing which yea isn't justifiable but the author isn't exactly justifying it either it's only people who are taking it way too seriously even the mc himself says he doesn't have time for teen romance drama it legit does NOT matter that much.

And the micheal hate is also unreasonable alot of the times "he's dumb and stupid dum dum why does he hate mc stupid idiot" he was a fucking orphan who gets abused in his house and in school gets beaten up every day? "The mc didn't bully him until he kissed lily" he legit is an accomplice by watching it and not stopping it either remember he's the one who started it by "taking an interest" in micheal when he stepped up for a bullied kid, samael HIMSELF agrees that he was also at a massive fault when him and micheal were arguing (not agree to him, in his mind) before shifting the topic. It's almost stupid cause why would micheal NOT hate him?? Throwing him into dustbins? Beating him up everyday? Taking him to an abandoned building so no one can save him while again beating him up? An orphan whos abused at home? and yeah micheal has his flaws but you have to remember mc actively makes him angry by taunting him and making him get hated more on, and even with all that micheal apologises at the end of the arc when he made a mistake. its just lack of reading comprehension if you cant understand where characters are coming from.

Other than that it's a fantastic novel only held back by the amount of chapters, I see a lot of potential because the author genuinely writes well, but yes each to their own you can't force someone to "have better taste" if someone enjoys harem sure enjoy harem man if someone enjoys singular lead romance sure that's nice too but no reason to call something s*it or mid if you can't give a proper try at understanding or reading it, simplest thing is to drop it if you don't like it but rule of thumb is just to read it till when it "starts getting good" or not do whatever you want enjoy whatever you want but being insufferable without reading properly will always be stupid

Its good but some aspect of it just put it down for me. Some people might not mind the aspects im on about so take it with a grain of salt. At the end of the day you need to form your own opinion so dont take all the reviews to heart since there is a lot of mixed ones. First of all the mc changes so dramatically from his earth self to his current self. I get he is supposed to be a villain but this is just bullshit. Second of all the real mc and lily. The real mc is the most insufferable piece of s*it I've ever fucking seen. Mate thinks life is all sunshine and rainbows even though he is literally being taught BY A FUCKING DEVIL, like how hypocritical can you get. He says evil shouldn't exist in the world blah blah blah and he still gets taught be the devil. Like stfu.And dont get me started on how he treats our mc. He hates him even though he wasn't that one who bullied him. And he only beats him up when HE and Lily cheated. And FUCKING Lily god shes awful. First of all dont date if you dont like him and second of all DONT FUCKING CHEAT. If you like someone else, FIRST BREAK UP WITH YOUR BOYFRIEND INSTEAD OF CHEATING! Then Lily has the fucking balls to try and be friends with our mc. Like ARE YOU FUCKING RETARDED?? And also the story is really slow and the arc where they went to the town with the monsters that were eating the people, God that was awful. It was so dragged out and why the hell did the mc gloat his even plan? Is he a 8 years old? That was super cringe. But a plus side is the mc is pretty cool. The most enjoyable part I think was his 10v1 and whenever he defies expectations like when he beats his sister. Its also really funny so if you like comedy you would like this
