Review Detail of Yumbrella in The Legendary Tale of the sadistic Pirate Hestia

It's been a while since I have reviewed a novel, so pardon me if what I may have written might seem not understandable. First of all, let me start by saying that this novel is unique. Unique not in the sense that there aren't any pirate novels or any mc with sadistic tendencies but it was surprising to see a novel that combined both of these genres, and I have to admit, it's a pretty nice combination. For those who want a short concise opinion, I suggest you read the novel and give it a go. chances are you will probably be heavily impressed. For those who won't mind a long read, ill put in my thoughts on this novel in a bit more detail! First and foremost I want to compliment the writing style of the entire novel. Its sticks out very much from the standard webnovel novels. Rather than following the light novel style, the narration feels a lot closer to the westernized style of writing. Another plus for me was the smooth transition between the first-person and third-person points of view. these mixed use of pov does indeed IMO help a lot in increasing the overall immersion of the novel. The use of emotions was pretty much amazing. Sometimes you do feel in sync with the emotions of the protagonist. Talking about chapter updates, This area is indeed a major weak point of the novel. Although chapter lengths are indeed pretty much above average or in fact on the longer side, the guaranteed release of one chapter per week isn't much. But I did see a much better chapter release schedule this week, so that's good news. Now the world's development is phenomenal and the fact that almost every place that Hestia and her gang visit have been made into a map and posted on the discord channel ensures that it's easier to understand what's happening where. The story is pretty good. It is engaging and does get better as you read more. The genre here isn't exactly my cup of tea but id say it isn't a story you would feel much bored about. But do remember about the fundamental fact that Hestia (The MC) is REALLY a sadist, it is not a figure of speech. So those who are here in for a story of "sunshine and roses" protagonist who saves lives and spares their enemy, will not be exactly pleased or amused(but she does spare some of them so don't come to torch me if she spares some dudes). I love the detailing in the novel as well, whether it be describing the beauty of Hestia, the majesty of Cerberus, or the loyalty of Lucas and the rest of the crew, the great attention to detail and explanation sometimes immerse you far more than you could imagine. But one part I do find unsatisfying is the action parts. Yes, Hestia IS meant to OP but sometimes it makes the fights seem a bit bland. Other than a few instances, usually, it is just Hestia one-sidedly beating someone to death (tbh I should have expected as much when the MC is a sadist) The characters are amazing, every single one of them has their own distinct characteristics, personalities, and morals. Tbh in the 40 chapters that I have read, I didn't see any one of the crew ever breaking from the character. The emotional use is amazing and sometimes you will feel the emotions the characters are facing. And the MC is really unique and it's fun seeing her having fun with the gang. Although yes it is yuri and harem, I don't feel it to be the main focal point of the story. all in all, it's just the story of a wacky captain enjoying with her crew in all sorts of adventure half the fun seems to be in discord with all of them world maps, and with the ability to talk with hysterics, what more could you ask? and the character arts are amazing as well. So IMO this novel is definitely something to put on your reading list, may or may not be your cup of tea but ill encourage you to give it a try as it might surprise you as much as it did to me
