This story is a lot of fun. The writing isn't a beautiful masterpiece, but it doesn't need to be. The characters are fun and unique, each with their own personalities. Give it a read if you're in the mood for a light-hearted story!

The writing is good, the characters are varied and fun (even though I hate that the little sister ends everything she says in "bro" when she's talking to her brother) and the writing on the combat scenes is top tier.

I really like that the MC was like "oh well that happened" when he got female character from randomized appearance and even laughed about it with the first character he met in-game.

For those looking for transgender vrmmorpg story, this story is not it (at least from what I've read until now). This is just a slice of life about a guy playing female character in VR with his soon to be fiance (she isn't playing, but I assume will join later, or just hasn't been mentioned) + his little sister and her friend.

A fun novel with entertaining characters. MC is overpowered but fair, and it always leads to some random entertaining high jinx. The novel is also good ad beeing romantic without crossing 'the line'.

I enjoyed the novel and want to read more😉

Around a 4, (Made at Chapter 43)

This story is a lot of fun.

Plot is basically non-existent, but that's fine. Umbra Frontier Online is just one of those types of stories where it is just characters doing stuff. In this case the MC and their friends and family just playing a game and having a good time.

The characters are fun, its over the top in the correct places, and the humour is good enough. For an overall enjoyable story, its also pretty short (at the time of writing this review), so it shouldn't take too long to read through it all.

So synopsis, this, or one of the other reviews make the story seem intresting enough, give it a try.

Edit: Maybe the author went back and fixed up the errors or something, cause it seems like the early chapters I was complaining about are better now? Dunno. Haven't really re-read up to chapter 28 to confirm, but the initial ones are 'fixed, ' to my consideration at least.

Spoiler

No clue what retiisi was reading, but there's a lot (and I mean A LOT) of grammatical errors littered throughout the entire story, no matter what chapter you're on. Misspelled words, incorrect tenses, extra words that don't fit the expressions used, pluralized words that should be singular and vice versa... It's one thing to "not be perfect, " but this is just kind of absurd. Just a once over with Google Docs' spell check would catch most of the errors with only a few false flags.

Maybe the author's ESL or something and I'm just being a jerk, in which case I can only apologize, but... it's a lot to have to overlook. I'm not going to rate it, but I'd definitely knock off a fair amount just from how much the grammar forces you to almost rewrite the story as you read through it instead of helping you move through it.

[collapse]

The story is pretty laid back. A mostly casual romp through a VRMMO with a fairly intricate backstory where the main character inadvertently finds a lot of exploits by playing in a way most people wouldn't.
