I always try to read at least 10% of the novels before reviewing them, but man, I just couldn't make it..

The read kinda feels like one of those japanese isekai novels where the plain MC is op from the start yet refuses to solve his problems and ignores them until they blow up on his face.

I'm disappointed because I got baited by the synopsis and at the end of the day the dude didn't even want to make an idol group! A random pimp (literally) on the street pushed him into buying the shady idol agency! 

I'm dropping it because I know where this is going, can't ignore the red flags.

made an account for this, Very nice, even if I usually don't like cultivation stories, the interaction John has with the world he found him self in is hella interesting. Keep it up!

This is fun, lighthearted, but dipping into serious. We are given background to the issues that are obtained from millenial cultivation. 

Characters are cute, they seem to progress, so it's fun to read about them.

It kinda makes me blink the fact that everyone is connected in some way, but can be excused with fate and karma. 

I kinda want to see more impact made to the world, John has the mind and potential to change everything, which brings concequences, I want to see that.

Anyway, I love it, well written, very few problems in grammar or spelling. And fun to read all around.

Consistently fun to read. Though, I would hope for fast time travel, a bit of time skips at some point, so as to accelerate this awesome train.

One of the best this site platform had to offer. Isn't angst-inducing, but more of a lighthearted family slice-of-life. Don't be goaded by the synopsis. It's not full-xianxia or cultivation power leveling, but Mr. John's return to his earthly life, and his try on idol-making and dealing with karma and family. Cuz it's a damn rare slice-of-life.

A very relaxing read that had me binging throughout all the chapters. Read especially for those who want to taste something different aside from usual cultivation troupes.

tl;dr:  I expected:  a cultivator running an idol agency while his friends/sect/lovers try to get him back What I read felt like: some dude with convenient powers themed to be wuxia/xianxia-esque interferes with peoples lives and some of them end up as idols.

If you just want to mindlessly read something and the summary is to your taste, this is fine. Not bad, not great, maybe good if slice of life is your jam. Though, if you care a bit more about the narrative, then read on.

Technical aspects of writing were well done. No egregious spelling or conjugation errors that threw off the flow to bother me. 

The premise is interesting and plausible (within the setting), but the execution is just shy of being clearly labeled good but qualitatively a notch or two above being bad. 

The biggest flaw is the inconsistent portrayal of the main character. He is represented as this individual who ended up rising to achieve the Dao, is super OP, has all these insane powers, and was willing to offend anyone, but still gets caught up in stupid little problems? 

Worse is he "snuck out", but the summary clearly shows someone see him leave and "escape". He also has people he cares about and loves, but abandoned them to end up just running an idol agency? Again inconsistent. Also, he has time travel within his power set, so couldn't he go visit Earth, then travel back and roll back time to replace himself as soon as he left? 

That isn't to say that I dislike the story. The characters are interesting with clear desires and actions to achieve them. That counts for so much in storytelling and narrative that it makes the slice of life aspect to this enjoyable (and I generally can't stand written SoL). 

One aspect I didn't like was how by chapter 45, we had a very small world. I don't mean we hadn't travelled throughout the Three Kingdoms and seven continents, but that everyone was related. Like sure, that does happen in small towns with 40k people or less, but when you are talking about a place like Tokyo, then it's very unlikely. 

You could have this be due to diegetic reasons (such as karma and all that jazz), but it just seems unnecessary? Maybe it's just me, but 45 chapters in, I'd expect more than 6 principal characters that actually contribute to the story.

Well-written story. There's nothing to say, the character development is very good, a lovely story. Along those references..

It was good up until the author forced a frustrating drama. I thought this was supposed to be lighthearted. This is the kind of authors I hate. Forcing unnecessary drama. It was great until that point.

Despite this story's popularity, It still feels underrated. That's just how good it is.
