My new favorite cooking manhwa, a chill story with a good mix of comedy and serious cooking, and I like the fact that mc can go back to his original world rather than just being stuck in the new world. Art is also pretty good and very expressive, and I love the tail wags!
People are saying that this sort of personality is unique, and I agree but not exactly in a good way. I love MCs that want to hide their identity and not attract attention, but not to the point of willingly sacrificing another life (not saving someone's child and just staying on the sidelines). I love aloof and not pushover MCs, but not ones that are genuinely lazy, can't clean up after themselves, have no manners and act like spoilt brats. Plus the gaslighting? Man it is so frustrating.
Let's be real, if this girl was a side character everyone would be calling her an annoying bish and wanting her gone. I do feel sorry for what happened to her dad, but it doesn't excuse her current personality since she made herself forget all about it. Plus I dislike golden spoon MCs, no progression and straight to being OP. Ngl I'm still not exactly sure what her power even is lmao. Changing and editing reality or sth?
STILL, I want to have some hope in the story (definitely not because the art is too good to give up on). Her childishness could be what makes her human. I can see how her being smart yet powerless whilst young could lead her to develop such an apathetic and spoilt personality. I just wish to know whether there is any character development and improvement in her personality, because if this continues I might not be able to continue reading this .... So plEase any spoilers?
Bro the MC is such a pushover... I love a kind mc who isn't shrewd and helps others frequently, but this guy is on another level. He gives revolutionary stuff away practically for free, and whenever someone causes trouble (iykyk), he just forgives them like nothing. Even when some adventurers came and rudely asked him for help to make potions to get rid of this monster, basically all the work was pushed onto him, from figuring out the problem, making the potion and even the application of the potion onto the monster. And he wasn't even compensated well for it.
As the MC continues to forgive everyone with a smile, I think I'm the one going crazy with frustration. He just doesn't feel 3 dimensional with his constant happy go lucky attitude
He is a character I genuinely wish the best for, he didn't deserve to suffer like he did in the past
Anyways amazing art and promising storyline coming up, waiting for more chapters!
Why is the rating so low? I've seen much worse mangas with higher ratings than this. Although we are not far in the story yet, this has a great and interesting hook, and the story seems to have a lot of potential. Definitely give this a try!
Read until ch81, I really cannot handle the girls' cringe and delulu act anymore, and the plot is also getting a bit confusing and also slow because the daughter keeps wanting to do stuff with the mc and it keeps turning into side stories that I have no interest in
.. and the red hair girl even worse like they not even dating who's cheating on who bruh... The daughter is also getting jealous of other girls like if you want to be mc's daughter at least act like one.
Overall it is getting old I just wanna know who tf the daughter is why do they have different surnames coz it is kind creeping me out that this random girl came into mc's house and asked to stay with mc. Idm spoilers if it means I dont have to read another panel with the girls in it.
Title was meant to be a question
I recall in the early chapters, it's mentioned that the daughter is his older brother's daughter. She's actually lived with her mother (the older brother's girlfriend), but something happened so she ended up living with MC as she doesn't have any family left from her mother's side. But idk about MC's older brother. He's never appeared or mentioned ever since (￣∇￣")
Oh and there's something wrong with MC's memories as he was transmigrated (kinda?) in another world for so long after getting into an accident. Then he came back to his og world and body some times after the accident. So he couldn't really remember about his past life whatsoever, even after gave his approval of the daughter living with him
Not necessarily an idol story. I just really like this protagonist's personality. How he just does what he wants to do, not overly cold but not a pushover, doesn't sacrifice himself unnecessarily for others but also has a sense of justice and helps others within his capacity. The side characters are also well written and unique in their own way, and they are all so cute mannn. I just want a story with like a similar atmosphere, where you can be happy supporting the mc and seeing how his every little action impacts others around the him in unexpected ways. Little plot twists like how the mc actually helped the side character tremendously by trading away the frozen food balls which he cannot eat really warms my heart in a way yk.

Read the world best engineer. I almost peed while laughing.
Not a single chapter where i wasn't laughing like a maniac
This and the list above are really great reads, can vouch.
Though worlds be engineer isn’t exactly what you’re looking for, it’s one of the best stories I’ve read in a while, competing for first.
Definitely should give it a try, on webtoon is the best since it’s free and you can support the author.
The personality of the FL is sooo inconsistent, one second she acts like a mature lady who doesnt give a shit, then she becomes a bish not in a super bad way, but next she is acting like a baby bawling her eyes out wanting to go back to her world, then she becomes a compassionate person giving the prince life advice right after bawling. Like??? I understand she has some trauma or sth back in her world, and I dont mind any of these sort of characters by themselves, but atp the FL be acting like me during my period with those mood swings frrr. Kinda unrealistic imo, like I thought she hated her old world but her crying due to missing her old world just threw me off, esp with the immediate mood change right after. Cant the author stick with one thing and just go with the super cool dgaf lady that I came here for TAT? And it's kinda sad that she doesn't get along with the characters she created herself. Was hoping for something more, might drop, update me on how the story progresses and whether it is worth continuing (〜￣△￣)〜
Like a normal human being, unstable
Exactly
I honestly can tolerate females most of the time in stories, but this fiancee really just ticks off all the boxes I hate about female characters in stories. Supposed to be strong (original protagonist of the game even) but acts like a weakling, judges/observes ml coz he is "interesting", has some inferiority complex that prob cannot be overcome without mc's help, clings onto and bothers ml for whatever reason, follows mc and becomes deadweight (like who tf goes into a dangerous forest in pajamas), and most importantly acts blushy blushy all the freaking time while with/thinking about the mc. Author/illustrator obviously hasn't interacted with women before.
Overall storytelling also mediocre. Full of plot armour and inconsistencies. Also bad at creating suspense, wow the +0.1 stamina at the last minute was so shocking and the Griffin fight was so intense I almost fell out of my seat. Felt like something a 14 year old could write, just attribute everything to either mc being gaming veteran or just plain coincidence. The manhwa just isn't bringing the characters nor the plot to life.
You took the words right out of my mouth, this is exactly what I look for in stories. The ability to flesh out the story, let the conversations flow naturally and not force the relationships. I thought authors would realize by now that they are just putting their lazy storytelling in the pool of all the other unoriginal action stories, but I guess there's a demand and people are in it for the action hype and forcefed underdog success. Like if you're using the same plot device repeatedly to make the mc come out on top there's basically no substance at all.
It had a unique concept at first, being reincarnated as a demon lord in control of a dungeon of his own, being able to buy stuff from his original world using points. But slowly this concept started to fade away, there was little to no mention of the progression of the dungeon, point aquirement or anything related to the dungeon. It became your cliche, OP-for-no-reason protagonist whose only struggle is not being able to protect his weaker harem partakers. Plus a bunch of romance and "comedy" about mc getting involved with little girls, cheating and prostitution even though he isn't. Really not my type of humor and the appeal has faded for me. Too bad I guess, was hoping for more.
