like the slow pacing (rating this 9/10)

Personal rating: 9/10. i get the criticism about this being too slow but i really like the slowness of the story. it’s shounen ai, yes, but i feel like the romance is a side plot and it works for the story. i loveee idol stories (read Debut Or Die and I Became The Youngest Top Idol if you like this story yall!) and so im used to them just having bromance and no BL.

One thing this story does that most reincarnation stories (both the female and the male ones) don’t do is a focus on the person MC replaces. Usually, the person the mc replaces never thinks about what happened to them, but this one really cares about the person they replaced and wants to do them justice. I love that, and I think it’s bittersweet.


one complaint i do have is that i think this story has too many side plots? i mean, maybe the author is going to tie them all up together in some way later on but for now i do think the author is detracting a little from the main plot. either way, this is a bit of a nitpick.

i love all the characters, especially the main MC and the og guy he replaces. wish there could’ve been a way for them to interact, but alas, he is long gone. ;-;

    Agree, I think it’s slowness is actually really good. It focuses on the other aspects besides romance.
