What if the villain was smarter?

by Caileo

Rating: 9.0 / 10.0

What if the villain was the smartest one, but he has to face many MC with standard trope powers, like chosen ones, reincarnators, regressors, etc.? If you're ever wondered, then this might be for you. The art is gorgeous.

The art and flow of the story is really good, only if you ignore the MC's illogical actions at the start

MC is a villain through and through, not the kind who is somewhat moral. He's cunning, smart and strong, but the way the story started off is kind of puzzling to say the least. He's a transmigrator but somehow, instead of questioning his transmigration, he accepts it in a heartbeat. Similarly, he accepts his system suddenly without any thought without thinking about the motives of the system. Like many other isekai/transmigation stories, neither the author nor the MC put in any effort into making his transmigrator status meaningful. It's just there without any point. Why exactly does the MC want to go against the "Heaven's chosen"? Why does he know exactly what to do without even thinking much? Why is the system built to rob the "Heaven's chosen"? What motives do the MC or protagonist have? I know it's quite unlikely to squeeze so much information at the start, but the author could have just planted these questions and answers at the start and gradually address it. But nah, the author didn't even do any of that, so we just had to close an eye and pretend that the MC is "just a villain". I think it would be better if they introduced him as a agent (like Su Lv xia) whose role is to be a villain.

What's great about this story is the unexpectedly good pacing and decent depth of the side characters. Unlike lousy stories where the side characters exist for the MC to show his Mary Sue abilities, the characters are decently fleshed out with their own thoughts and loyalties. Also, they quickly recognise that he's powerful and don't rush to their deaths which is really refreshing. The pacing is not rushed, nor is it unnecessarily draggy. It flows well and the art is superbly drawn. Both the characters and background are well drawn and nice to look at.

Overall, as long as you ignore the lack of explanation as to why the MC is behaving the way he does even though he is a transmigrator (likely from earth), it's an interesting story.

nothing groundbreaking but very entertaining

(read till chapter 30s)
a direct comparison would be "History's strongest senior brother" the novel not the manga or smth.
Its a wuxia world where the protagonist (villain) plays as the villain in storylines of multiple heroes who act varying levels of cliche and entitled, transmigrators, reincarnators everything.
HSSB is the most direct and frankly an even better novel, it goes much more in depth and is more realistic in terms of characters in this manga the characters just fall for the protag (villain) cause hes just that cool.

Theres other loads of novels where the protag is the 'villain' in a world of multiple heroes, like 'you cannot afford to offend my women'.

(edit after chapter 44, + reading the novel)
okay so this manga adaptation does not do the novel justice. a side effect from the manga structure itself i presume.
Each manga chapter while long, it adapts 2-3 novel chapters. And it skips over a lot of details. The main point of this story, as implied ofc, is how other characters will respond to the mc. It's never about whether the MC himself will succeed or not, cause that was never in doubt. Even in the previous timeline (i.e. timeline where the mc didnt transmigrate), this villain was the last boss, he wins every single encounter even in the last life without the system in place. This guy's the real deal.
And the manga adapts his plans and journey.
And while yes that is a part of the story. the main part really is how other characters react to being trapped in his web of plans. They get a lot more development in the novel that the manga simply lacks either because of poor storyboarding and naming (believe me the explanations are sorely lacking in the manga why things work the way they do) or having to condense multiple chapters into a few frames, completely missing the original context.

A lot of the explanations about the system make much more sense when taking the novel into context. The point values are almost secondary and him stealing the protagonists' fate value is also not because he can't kill them otherwise but because it would be inefficient.

Regardless, read the novel if the manga interests you because it expands upon a lot more things.
My original rating does not change however. It's a solid 8/10, very entertaining but its not something that will shake your world.

The art is very beautiful, of course.

Oh also, the translation is sorely lacking for the novel almost seems like MTL but that's another topic.

Interesting Story

by imblad3

Rating: N/A

This story focus on MC who is a fated to be badass villian that crush all kind of "fated Male/Female Lead".
Hoping the art quality can portrait the story properly.

Story is nothing new. But the Pacing and the Art is superb.
If Solo leveling makes everything right for "urban dungeon system novel".
This is the equivavelnt in "culitvator evil system novel".

Good translations all around, interesting start

by logan3

I've enjoyed all this manhua's translations by Mangabaz, Asura, and Maple Leaf Scans/UnderDogs Scan so far. I appreciate their work and efforts.

As for the manhua itself, the MC has transmigrated into a world where he's originally intended as a stepping stone for the world's protagonist. Even though he is stronger than the protagonist, he cannot kill the protagonist due to their high, innate luck (or heavenly fate) stat. Instead, he must slowly find ways to reduce the protagonist's luck/fate while raising his own, until the reversal is high enough that he can take direct action to eliminate the protagonist. This process is where the comedy, drama, and action come in. The art, so far, is fantastic.

As of the time of this comment, we're only 15 chapters in, so we'll have to see where it goes from here!

Seem interesting, just chose the right translation.

After reading up to chapter 6 i feel that it might be a really good manga just go with AsuraScans translation not Mangabaz, mangabaz clearly have no one who speaks native english to proofread their translations, just wait for Asura to catch up with the chapters.

Levciathanscans is good as well.
