Review Detail of LightningCatThief in Super Gene Optimization Fluid

The Good thing about this novel is how well done the translation is. Beides a few minor troubles with the right vocabulary, but that might be because the original uses very hard to translate concepts, there is noting to complain. This is sadly not the case for the rest. Besides the stupid and illogical way the whole power/special ability system is presented, the whole story feels fractured. The flow is broken every few chapters to introduce new characters or motivations to destroy any kind of character impressions you had of the MC. It is literally a transformation from normal 9 to 5 worker, cowardly and meek, to a cutthroat assasin/businessman who enjoys killing, to a zealous cultivator, to a completely brain dead and high on power fool, to a lovestruck ape, to a responsible family guy, adopting useless baggage and carrying her trough supposedly life and death trials, and of course the always important nationalist. After reading more than 40 chapters I have seen many cliches, very few new ideas and there is still not a single positive or negative thing I can say about the MC. Worldbuilding/Background is one of the worst I have ever seen. There are literally thousands of other planets and possible alien races, but despite participating in a solar system wide event there is not a single description of an alien race. In general the reader has to imagine 90% because the author does not describe the places or people. The power system is even more flawed, just an example: Every being across multiple galaxies has the same brain structure and path of advancement, which means they are all human and have grown in the same environment, which explains a lot about this book, Not! According to the author there are different races, and planets which have developed 100s of times longer and use technology thousands of years in the future. Evolution or just the advancements brought by interstellar technology are just not a thing in this novel. Feels like if the British who used their technology to conquer dozens of nations and looked down on the aborigines are suddenly totally overrun and outgunned by a single village idiot who happens to gain the friendship and support of a deserter. At the same time there are many superfluous scenes, which increase word count and boredom in equal measures. To conclude, this novel is incomplete and needs to be reworked extensively before it can be called literature. The concept has potential, but the execution is rushed and majorly flawed. My Summary: An average guy gets lucky and optains the potential and resources to become powerful. Watch how he stumbles his way from an backwards nation into the middle of an intergalactic conflict. Follow him on his path of adventure, learning and personal growth.
