This book is great, while the genderbender protagonist at the beginning threw me off a little bit, the plot and action afterwards throughly captured my attention. Great fight scenes mixed with character growth (literally and emotionally). Also the authors naming sense for skills and monster is top notch. Love it.

THIS IS SOOO GOOD, I love the way you write, looking like re:monster, a novel that I love, congratulations for such a great novel, I hope you never drop it

never seen such a unique novel the world of the novel grows at a good pace the worlds lore is interesting each chapter complements each other the authors implementation of the system was done very nicely BEST NOVEL SO FAR

there are to many loop holes in this story like how mc is to trusting and how his blessing effect can be shared to his subordinates its basically removing reason why he is unique tsk.

The “Epic of Caterpillar” is the only novel written by its author (PancakesWitch) on Webnovel. The MC is a reincarnated human male who died because of a fever. And he was incarnated into a caterpillar! As a previous Otaku he managed to discover that there is a system in this new world. The system is actually in control of the world and its inhabitants. Through his new life the protagonist embarks on a journey to empower himself by evolving with the help of the system. Gaining many strong companions while establishing a kingdom. The novel is heavily influenced by Japanese isekai webnovels, anime, and manga. I’ve noticed many similarities between EOC and many Japanese isekai novels like “Re: Monster; Monster reincarnation chronicle starting after being stabbed to death” by (Kanekiru Kogitsune), “That Time I Got Reincarnated As A Slime” by (Fuse), “The Death Mage Who Doesn’t Want a Fourth Time” by (Densuke), and “I'm A Spider, So What?” by (Baba Okina). The novel main structure is based on the novel “Re: Monster”. The analogy between the MC’s (Kireina) and (Rou) is very much the same. Both are always levelling up, evolving and gaining skills through devouring others. Acquiring tons of followers and obtaining wives and children’s. Doing all of this while building and expanding their own monsters’ kingdom. The only difference is the gender bending happened to the MC. Still I could not figure out the reason behind it or will it be something crucial later on in the future of events. In general the novel has its ups and downs but still captivating and entertaining. I always looking for what next to the MC and all of her followers and wives. Also how far can she expand the kingdom and what will be unfold in the relation with the higher beings. And who is controlling the system

Honestly. I love the concept but the start of the novel is rough. Dialogue screams chunnybu and tonnes of overly convenient scenarios happen one after another. That being said the novel does pick up ALOT after a while and the story becomes enjoyable when the side characters realize they aren't in a low quality shounen manga.
