When Mally Mack died, they thought that was it. No more life, no more boring desk job and even more boring existence. Imagine their surprise when they find themself in the manhwa they finished three weeks before. As the villainess, because can't it get more cliche than that?
Well, screw that. Step one: practice life and death mushroom magic. Step two: build a new body with all the ideal specifications. Step three: put your soul into that new body. Step four: fake your own death and run away. The trappings of nobility? No thank you.
Wait. Why do all the main characters keep joining their adventuring party?? Aren't you all supposed to be at a light afternoon tea??
A/N Warning: this has a VERY slow start so buckle down before we get to the action, first we gotta get through the shoujo half of it before it goes shounen. Additionally, I have a discord up, so if you enjoyed the novel and have questions to ask, go ahead and join! https://discord.gg/hJAgYv9dXv
this is one of my favorite active (🤞) stories right now, I actually feel interested in all the main characters, and their interactions with mally and his secrets are just so delicious!
it's been delivering very well on the transgender and autism tags, a lot of mally's thoughts and actions rhyme with my own really nicely :) even the story itself feels a lil trans in the shifting from shoujo to shounen! And the mushroom body is really really great. It's not everpresently front and center, but there's a lot of small ways it shows up and brings to life the idea of living as a mushroom in a meat world.
the isekai stuff also feels refreshingly calm and focused?, with less emphasis on the things a litrpg isekai might be interested in even as the story goes shounen. Mally's knowledge of the other characters isn't able to predict their every move (worse, really (in a fun way for us)), and there's still time spared for mally to enjoy picking up and reading a few books.
i love it all so much get reading if you like gender f**kery 👍🍄ty for writing this shrooms :)

The story is well constructed and captivating, the MC mat seem a little "naive" at sime times, but the entire plot is really good and manages to hold your attention.
Mc's entire past is very mysterious and well crafted, MC thinks all the time that they are hated by everyone but it becomes very clear that's this is just they way of thinking, you can find this out after you read the story, his magical mushroom power is also super incredible and has a great potential to be explored

I recommend reading the story before taking any of this seriously because I am super burnt out from reading crappy, unrealistic yaoi.
1st chapter is more of a prologue: if you read the summary, it'll throw you for a loop. The characters mentioned are named after roman emperors for some reason, which to me is kinda dumb because Caesar was a last name not a first, but it's not my story and I only read like two chappies. The writing's not bad, but it feels like it has too much white space and not enough details. You get the sense that there's some important event going on, main character arrives... it wasn't very memorable, to be honest. The stupid roman names are getting to me.
Whatever. 5/5 for the writing, would not read ever to be honest, if you like it you like it, blah blah blah. Throw tanukis.
