Too many Unecessary Clichés and Tropes used here, so yeah, not worth reading much. Had a lot of hope for this but the author did well destroying that in the first 20 Chapters.

I rarely write reviews but this whole story was a massive disappointment. Going into this I thought it would be really good due to the amount of 5 star reviews and the concept of the novel however I was quickly disappointed. There a three main issues that I have with this novel 1. The author has a weird grasp of economics, the way the currency was setup up had problems from the beginning however these could be overlooked until the author decided to start adding USD conversion at which point everything went downhill. For perspective the author claims that maids in the MCs family get paid a relatively high wage of 1 gold a month. However the author later says that 1,000 gold = $10,000 (1 gold = $10) meaning that the maids make less than 1/560 of the average monthly salary in the US. This could maybe make sense if the MC was in a third world country where labor costs were low however the MC is the son of the richest family in the world and obviously does not live in a poor area. I got past this point however and kept reading, however shortly after when the MC introduces chess it is priced at 100 bronze per set which would be $0.001 per set. You can buy ramen in most gas stations for $1 meaning 1 ramen noodles container = 1,000 chess sets. Make it make sense. Again this would maybe be fine if the author didn’t bring up the amount the MC made in USD repeatedly. 2. The MC tries to implement modern social practices that do not make sense in a medieval setting onto this world (e.g. The MC tries to force all the house staff to work a maximum of 8 hours per day and no more, great thought except it makes no sense in a medieval society where work hours are determined by sunrise and sunset) 3. Cringe / Cliche. Everything seems to always work out perfectly for the MC with little to no effort, MC follows reincarnator 101 on steroid template to make money using modern ideas but has an AI that does all the work and creates perfect blueprints. What really irked me though was the MC just straight up giving away the soap recipe to other people because he didn’t want to hurt their business and wanted everyone to live peacefully and happily. Verdict: Had and has potential, author should rewrite what they have an try again. Would not recommend reading until the author makes some edits and fixes some of the biggest issues specifically the currency.

Reincarnated To Evolve My Bee Empire

"Now, go forth, my mortal champion! Conquer this world—or else!" I lived a painfully average life and died by a stupid, stupid accident, but a goddess interfered, giving me a second chance in another world. There, I became royalty—the lazy kind with almost no obligations, free to live in peace and luxury for the rest of my days. Sounds like a dream, right? In reality, it was anything but—because I became *BEE* royalty. A Drone Bee, doomed to die of old age in 2 months! (A humanoid bee, thankfully, but still a bee in all the ways that matter.) The only way to increase my lifespan is to develop and grow my bee colony—a deadly task in a vicious world like this one. There are murderous insect monsters, colossal beasts trampling the earth, other civilizations, natural disasters, and the bitchy patron goddess who absolutely hates me. But as long as I have my brains, my bees, and the powerful genes my system gives me, my Bee Empire will be unstoppable! === For those who want to know more: This is a wholesome comedic story, but it has some dark moments. The focus is on kingdom building, survival as an empire, and interacting with MC’s beautiful bee wife and adorable bee daughters. The bees are all humanoid (see pictures) and human-sized. However, they are still bees in their ways of life and mentality. Although there’s a system, real growth comes from putting effort and time. Nothing happens in an instant in this story, unless it’s trouble. MC acts like an idiot sometimes (oftentimes), but he’s not actually stupid-stupid. When it comes to strategic decisions, he uses logic and reason. Even if you might disagree with it. Also, there will be no smut (ecchi is a fair game), incest, NTR, harem or BL. === Discord is up! Find it at -> https://linktr.ee/Garessta Updates: 2 chapters/day, right after the reset (with a 5% chance of running late). Reply to author's pinned review if you have questions. Also, although I realize the futility of this aim (at least right now), if this novel reaches top 15 golden ticket ranking (and stays there for a few days, obv), I will mass release 10 extra chapters! (within 30 calendar days)
