When my curiosity got the better of me in the afterlife, I ended up reincarnating with several things I wasn't supposed to have, like my memories. But I got a second chance at life, and I wasn't going to waste it. Making a nice home in a dungeon, adopting an abandoned girl as my little sister, for someone who died alone, poor, and full of stress, I had everything I wanted and all the stuff I hated were gone.
But while my back was turned, immigrants and refuges?! Land management and negotiations?! Why are you making a country in my backyard?! And everyone wants me to be the leader?! And while I desperately tried to get peace and happiness to my new life, now someone wants my admin powers?!
The story started off pretty good, but the main character, despite being one of the strongest people in the world, can't resist s*xual assault for fear of causing a scene, letting people grope her constantly. Reading this story leaves a bad taste in my mouth, and the fact that the author wrote a couple dozen chapters before starting this feels like a bait and switch for initial good reviews.

The main character is erratically different chapter to chapter (though is honestly mostly just a high powered doormat for everyone) The characters in this series show next to no consistency over time.
It's a tiresome read that I wish went somewhere. The dungeon crawling stage of this was neat but it's just kinda gotten worse over time.
The author doesn't really seem to know where he's going honestly, and has very blatantly added things dozens of times to try frantically fixing plot holes mentioned in comments. (It is to the point you can predict the next chapter sometimes based on the top comment of the prior one)
Also the author has some weird yuri fixation. He shoehorned in a few scenes then kind "tehe, can't stop myself from added them now and then!" When it added literally nothing to the story so it was just awkward and weird.

I was honestly very invested in this story. The beginning up till before the character started running into other people was really interesting. Unfortunately, the MC is a weak character who apparently has never once interacted with a single person in their life or previous life as they turn into a worse than an introvert fool who lets anyone do anything to her because she goes brain dead. With the numerous interactions the MC has had, you would think that at least there would be a tinge of intellect in the character but nope, it does not exist.
Characters are all 2D and honestly not very interesting to remember, only character worth remembering a bit was Alicia though, I got very uncomfortable reading through some of the interactions as it was almost on the level of a pedo. She's 6 by the way.
Another issue is that I cannot decide if this is a slice-of-life or not. It definitely switches to that genre a lot. The only reason a lot of the chapters are long is because there is so much unnecessary details put into the story. I started skipping through the latest chapters as it just got very boring, that and realising the MC is not developed at all.I don't have any complaints about the grammar, its OK.

Bwahahahaha! I finally caught up!
This is a nice story! It's quite well-written, has good plot progression and does an excellent job mixing drama, tragedy and battle with lighter slice-of-life moments. The best part is, the protagonist is this lovable doofus who is such a do-gooder she willingly goes out of her way to help others, even if she knows she's being manipulated into doing it. Those kinds of pure precious snowflake protagonists always warm the cockles of my heart.
The story does bog down in the 30-45 chapter range, primarily with Scarlet going kinda OOC when receiving some s*xual harassment from the local nobility. Also, this arc had some nice yuri content, but the story shied away from it instead of leaning in. Personally, I'd like to see this develop into a full-blown yuri story, but that's just my own biases talking.
I think there should also be a bit more focus on the perspectives of other characters. Quite a few big social upheavals happen in the later chapters, with old prejudices being challenged and new nations being formed, and I'd really love to see the impact this has on people other than Scarlet. It would add depth, y'know?
Yuri and character depth. That's what this story needs more of. Well, it's still a fun read, yeah? Thank you, Author, for writing such a great story. I look forward to more, and to whatever future works you create! Keep up the excellent work!

Oy author, why did you ruin the story?Huh, why did you ruin it? Here I was hoping to find a nice isekai story where the MC is super dashing and plays with beauties all day like a proper vampire, but instead what? You make him get groped by some nobodies that he can literally obliterate with a single tought, but doesn't do it bcs "I am scared of getting caught". Like, it's medieval times who would care for some thugs, also he is wearing all black, how are they gonna know it's him. If you just want to make him into a woman entirely atleast say it in the description and don't waste our time.

I finished getting caught up, And I am for the most part in love with the story and how it's progressing. I initially read this thinking it'd be an awkward and badly paced fantasy story like you tend to see. Within the first chapter, I was in love with how the MC was acting in the reincarnation section
The MC going through Dungeon floors is probably my favorite or second favorite part of the story. I like this worlds version of Vampires where Blood Sucking lets you get skills from the victim. The Sun is actually a deadly existence. You might be thinking " What do you mean deadly existence? That's one of the most notable things of Vampires!" Just about all the stories I've read with Vampires in them will not have things that make Vampires iconic. We haven't seen the MC react to Garlic yet though.
I do like the when the MC comes out of the Dungeon for the first time and makes friends with the Fuzzballs. This is probably contender for my favorite thing. I do wish we got more of the MC starting to explore the world slowly by slowly.
I think this story will excel in places that aren't full of people. So large cities and countries wouldn't be ideal. I think the MC tending to stay more in places like the Dungeon that she made her own kingdom! That and also Small villages. I also think it'd be good if the MC doesn't go and get massively famous for much longer at least. I think it'd be best if she was thought to be a regular girl. Lastly, I am hoping the MC gets a little Kingdom creator on us and start's making a Kingdom in the dungeon or have her start taxing anyone trying to enter and it eventually just becomes known that she owns this dungeon.
I do enjoy the story and am wanting this to get a lot more attention soon.

This is the most idiotic, spineless, and inconsistently written MC I have seen in a long, long, LONG time.

I tried so hard and got so far but in the end it doesn't even matter...
MC was an ADULT DUDE who ded and went to afterlife but didn't want to follow other souls and entered a different reincarnation room, made himself a vampire, maxed his beauty stats and got the administration rights of that world to himself. Then he became beautiful female vampire and killed lots of big and scary monsters and became level 250+. But this previously adult dude who is sooo strong somehow whenever a human adult talks to him he got scared so much to the point he can't even move. A perverted guy came and gropped his breasts but he was like "wha? Wha? What's happening? I'm scared" DUDE seriously? He's that strong but perverted males can drag him around easily and he can't do anything and he shocked to learn that he is actually beautiful? He's completely different guy from start if so what was the point of keeping his memories author-san?
There was a lot of bad reaction to the point that author rewrite some chapters but nothing changed. It seems that author needs to read his/her own work also it feels like author doesn't even know what s/he is doing and randomly putting some events.

I'd like to give this 4.5 stars but sadly it's not possible on scribble hub.
Don't get me wrong it's a damn good read, superior to 90%+ of everything on scribble hub but it does have problems, but they're not the problems the other reviews complain about. If anything most of the reviews that complain about the MC just demonstrate they don't understand that type of person. He's an aimless person, that doesn't like dealing with people and isn't particularly good at it who suddenly finds themselves with godlike levels of power. So you get a Billy Jack type of character who lets a lot of s**t slip off of him but explodes like a bomb when pushed to far. For the most part it's a pretty believable type. So not really a problem, as you can see the reasoning behind most of the choices he makes even if you might not agree with it.
There are much bigger problems though that at this point seem to be getting bigger. The author does seem to have a problem framing things so the plot goes the way he wants it to.
Early on, you have a situation where the MC ignores an obvious problem till it's far too late so it can be a major focus of the story. He's from Earth and there is no way he could possibly ignore it unless he was raised under a rock
There's also quite few instances where the MC has the tools to easily solve problems but ditches them to come up with convoluted and self defeating ways to solve the problem. Call it "Isekai Protagonist Syndrome".
At another point he kills someone and then comes up with the weakest and most useless idea of how to conceal the crime imaginable. In another he goes to absurd length to conceal who is actually selling soap when it would be child's play to penetrate the deception. Then there is the whole isekai Soap/Mayonaise trope raising its head
The final problem is the "Just where is this thing going affliction for web novels". The chapters in this novel are loooong and that's a good thing, but you have to bare in mind this novel is the equivalent of your typical 300-400 chapter novel. Like most of those novels this one seems to be wandering off into the land of "Who Cares" and it's neighbor "Where the hell did that come from". At the current chapter it's devolving into descriptions of using magic to make things, how to cook foods, how to sew and overly long descriptions of travel. Once or twice to establish the process is interesting. More ? Not so much.
The last of the middle of the novel problems is, rapidly introducing characters, giving them a good deal of focus, just to ditch them

It's kind of fine for the most part, but the writing in some cases feels so forced.
"I'm going to ignore this absolutely obvious logic for 8 chapters and "care" my way through while doing my usual routine for weeks, only having time to "think" 5 minutes per day about it without using any semblence of intelligence to come up with a solution" Is quite common.
It feels like you write this in a similar fashion to how reincarnation novels usually "HAVE TO KEEP IT A SECRET" while repeatedly acting super unnatural, creepy and strange while trying to come up with excuses because they "slip" pretty much every time they have a conversation with anyone at all.
On top of all that, the MC's morals go back and forth on a whim, which is pretty much the same as his/her intelligence - Wasn't the dude supposed to be an indie game designer? Shouldn't he at a very baseline know the absolute basics of how things "should" work in a medieval RPG world and a bit generalized what certain magic schools should probably be able to do? Even when Alicia was obviously sick, the MC never even considered Light/Water magic for their "very high probability" of having healing magic, even when he/she has literal access to a skill compendium to research. ≫Even uses some water healing magic 10 chapters later.
But yeah, except for some writing decisions that feel way too forced or try to project some "I want the character to be this way" style rather than what you feel comfortable writing, this novel is.. Fine.
