Review Detail of ResidentialPsycho in Legend of the Mythological Genes

Review detail

I really had to force myself to read the first ten chapters to give the story a chance. Like with The Strongest Gene, the “science” in this novel makes me feel like I’m bashing my head into a wall. One hundred percent does not equal 100% in this series. If you don’t understand a lick of science, then make the series pure fantasy! Amino acids and the function of turning genes on and off aren’t mentioned. Why aren’t viruses used for genetic modification? Did people from the future forget how to splice genes? Furthermore, if you’re in a clan, then isn’t there a good chance that you are related and share the same genes? Why are there “formulas” and “equations” for genes? I would have thought the translators chose the wrong term and wrote “gene” instead of whatever was meant, but DNA is specifically mentioned in the second chapter. The author’s ideas on evolution are… interesting, even if they don’t make a lick of sense. Pluto returned to being a planet. The complications of pioneering through space and colonizing various habitats with different gravities is completely left out. Also, the author seems to have forgotten about the planets in other galaxies and that everything in space is constantly moving and isn’t going to stay in one place. ….Why are math and the sciences classified as “literature” in this school? Just wtf… If something is going to be sci-fi, then actually make it sci-fi! There is no science to go along with all this fiction! This is a standard, painfully cliché transmigration story where the person from the past takes over the body of a loser in the future. As usually, the MC starts out quite weak and looked down upon by his clan, but he undergoes magical stat-boosting... There is nothing original here. At all. The story starts off with an information dump so heavy, I almost dropped the series in the first few chapters. This is definitely a series that “tells” the story rather than “shows” it. Impressively boring. Without establishing the character or giving the readers any interest in the plot, the MC just cultivates. That’s right—this may actually be a cultivation novel disguised as a science-fiction. As for characterization, there isn’t any. I guess the MC’s trait is that he’s hard-working? He was from our era, but nothing is revealed about his past life. There is no story or character design, and the background doesn't make a lick of sense. I feel bad for the translation team for having to read this. Not recommended.

Yes, without a doubt. I can ignore some plot holes, illogical details, and inconsistencies, but not when I'm completely inundated by them. Your comments don't suit your username, huh?

A dwarf planet. Not a planet planet. There is a difference.

I don't know how to follow a user on this site. If you're looking for quality or honest reviews, my recommendation is to use Novel Updates. They also have much better tags to warn you about the contents of a series. The reviews and ratings there are much more honest and trustworthy. I post reviews on both that site and this one.

The original novels on here don't appear on NU, so we're kinda stuck with what we got.

If you’re gonna choose that name instead of all the other cool names you could have had instead, why go out of your way to be a jerk?

Uh...no? That’s why I abandoned it. I’d delete it if WebNovel would let me. And of course anything can be judged and criticized. The important thing is how nice and constructive you are when you do it. How did you extrapolate all this stuff from my reply, anyway?

Just leave it, honey. It’s evident by his words that his personality does not match his name. He’s either an idiot who doesn’t read your comments properly, or one of those assholes who think the phrase “Nice guys finish last” has anything to do with girls. There’s also a chance he’s both. Either way, he won’t see what you’re trying to tell him. Not worth it.

Even magic and fantasy series usually have rules or logic behind them. It is essential to world-building.

Why do you keep complaining here? You made a similar comment a month ago, which is why this review looks so familiar.

I don't care about your username. Why do you keep commenting to my review when it looks like you're talking to someone else? If you really wanted to argue with someone particularly, you would quote them. This discussion is for the review of Legend of the Mythological Genes. If you have nothing to contribute, then there is no need to respond.
