Well what would you do if you were a malnutritioned kid that has already spent almost all his energy mining for the past couple of hours when you get attacked by a more well-fed and physically stronger *****, would you fight back?

"The author couldve wrote a better situation or just not show the backstory" That's called self-censorship. It's also called poor storytelling. It's not a matter of realism, it's just how power imbalances work regardless of the type of power. A backstory showing the MC being at the bottom of the societal ladder is not a bad thing, it's very common, especially in xianxia novels, where personal power + power of backers = societal status. And in those situations, one has to bend if they don't want to break, if not bending was a viable option, they wouldn't be at the bottom of the ladder, and there'd be a lot less variety when it comes to possible conflicts the author could use to drive the MC's growth. Back to that quote from you: The former suggestion for what the author could have done shows that you're looking for a "everything goes well for the MC, nothing bad could possibly happen" type of wish fulfillment story. The latter suggestion, meanwhile, shows you don't care about - or perhaps actually don't want - any character building for the MC, the lack of which is a key trait of self-insert stories. For a self-insert wish fulfillment transmigration novel, go read something like Isekai Smartphone. No cuckolding the MC there. Or if you're into that, I've got other suggestions for hypocrites like you.

Did you just say that the author shouldn't give a backstory? Which mushrooms did you consume to say that?

Bro its survival of fittest and adapting to environment does not means cowardliness and here he clearly states that he feels world is against him so it is just he is cautious and here it gives some more realistic feeling.

too early to judge, you don't even know the reasons and the consequences. The path he choose is still path of a protagonist, but not the cliche type where he easily gain power.

He is spineless because he got his ass kicked. He was also almost dead due to another choice. The mc is a narcissist who is impulsive, he knows/thinks he is the main character. He, like the average wuixa or xianxia protagonist, could not take the bullying. So he ran away to get a better life like wuxia main characters. He gets shitted on by the world as it grants his wish to be special. So every wrong choice he makes would make him fight organizations or individuals with greater strength than himself. The missions are also brutal since you could easily fail them as well.

Very ironic due to the fact that you are using an edgy profile pic and name which seem very familiar...I got it! Naruto the anime/manga which has a ton of doujinshis where the protagonist is a cuck. You are a pot calling the kettle black then 😆. By better situation do you mean edgy very lucky main character who even if they did something stupid would turn out to be good in the end. The backstory of this main character is that he is narcissistic and impulsive, also stupid. He thinks he is the mc therefore he should be lucky. The world then slaps his face because it enforces the rule "treasure is associated with danger" on the mc. Even yellow treasure mission could almost kill him, it is very easy to fail as well. But I guess you only like bland wuxia main characters rather than characters with a personality. The personality even fits in with the novel.

Point is that naruto is a cuckold of an mc to the point he is just called Boruto's dad. That is where the irony lies. To be honest, your reply to them left me speechless, that was honestly one of the most stupidest replies I have ever read in web novel. Realism? The reason they said that was because the author made the mc more real than the blank main characters you like. You don't like it when the author gives the mc a flaw and personality? Fine sure, but you were dense in your reply. The backstory was there so it establishes the character and it did. You probably just skipped it cause all you want is the same super-duper power fantasy with those Japanese washboards of an mc, which is very ironic. Then you said they get off to netorare and that they should read japanese novels instead with the cuckold mc. Pretty funny considering many wuxia and xianxia power fantasy are just cold japanese main characters with more realism, oh wait lol. Power fantasy Japanese novel protagonist do not back down from a fight, which means they are not spineless lol, and you saying we get off to netorare indicates that you yourself are getting off to netorare, after all you are basically reading the same thing except that it is in chinese fantasy setting and more realistic. Tbh I barely read any Japanese novel and mostly read Chinese ones so it is very funny when you said that. After all the only difference between them is that a lot of wuxia and xianxia novels use realism in the main characters, like the main character gets colder due to all the things he experienced in life, unlike the japanese main character in most power fantasy novels which mostly stagnate. Tl;dr it seems you are the one reading Japanese novels and therefore by your words, you get off to netorare so go read your cuckold fat main character. Most wuxia and xianxia novels incorporate some realism unlike power fantasy japanese novels which barely have any.

Exactly like your reply. You say that because they like and are okay with realism, they like netorare then and they like japanese novels with cuckold mc? Wuxia and Xianxia novels use realism while power fantasy japanese novels don't kinda ironic. In fact yours is even more far fetched than mine. They are okay with realism but whats with cuckold mc and netorare? In fact netorare and a cuckold mc does not use realism or hates. Wuixia and Xianxia novels use realism as well, the japanese power fantasy novel does not like using realism and logic cause like you said it is fantasy and you never gone there so why not just place a washboard character.
