Likeable MC? Yep fo sho~
Hateable villain/ML? Also yeah (Abihiko you're about to catch these hands) !
Crazy detailed and absorbing worldbuilding and plot? Oh hell yeah. Buckle up we're on the angst and redemption train boi
(I also am not-so-secretly hoping for smut, though I know it won't be for a long time since this is slowburn. But I'm a pervert and my brain is permanently in the gutter. PLS AUTHOR :3)

I am not the usual consumer of BL novels, and of Romance novels in general, but the adventures our lovely Neko log emperor kept me reading together with an adorably friendly author.
Write comments and I assure you she will answer.
The strength of this novel are clearly its characters and the world building. I admit the author made some questionable choices when it came to certain elements, but such instances are rare and they don't distract from the overall plot.
The characters have depth, something I can't say of the majority of novels. They act in a rationale manner and their agendas are clear. They drive the plot by their actions and are driven, neither being too active, nor to passive, a typical vice you encounter in many novels. Events don't feel random. They are the logical consequence of past actions.
They are not characters, but persons in the truest sense of the word.
The other strength is world building. The author sets the story a clearly ancient Japan inspired world, which is unusual as novels with such a setting are rare.

Honestly, I don't read BL stories. However, this one is GREAT. I love Nekohiko and Kataji's interactions with each other.
Also, don't let the 'long' paragraphs and sentences fool you. The writing style is simple, quite wordy yet reading is a breeze. There are seldom, if any, dull moments.
The worldbuilding is great as well. I'm easily-absorbed into the world and it's fascinating.
I don't know, I'm still yet to find a flaw here, so it's 5* to me.

Excellent world-building and plotting. Some of the best I've seen on this website.
At first I wasn't sure about the pacing but, on reflection, it really suits the themes of story, and I can see what the author was going for. Stick with it, because the author really hits their stride by the second arc.
I really appreciate that the author puts content warnings at the start of chapters, and the aroace representation is great.
I hope the author returns some day. :)
