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.
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
Edit: thanks for explaining the plot hole bit guys, now I understand the story a little better now
Quite a unique story with pretty decent art, only there seems to be some plot holes I don't understand (spoiler alert)
The original skill of hers said that she will randomly receive ingredients to work with every day, so how can she plan out the dishes she will serve for the next 50 days? She doesn't have a choice in the ingredients right? And although "hunter points" were mentioned, they never mentioned what they are used for, which I think is a shame.
This could have been a story about how the mc earns these points, upgrades her cooking gear/space with her points and resources, and become the elusive food truck owner teleporting randomly to people in need. However what we got is the mc begging the spirit to upgrade/remodel the food truck and the spirit reluctantly agrees to do it for her. Like isn't the food truck owner HER skill? Why is she not the one in charge of upgrading, and is instead portrayed as helpless in front of the spirit?
Speaking of which, I get that the spirit is cute but its attitude is quite annoying. "You are not a hunter, you are a food truck owner" like why is it so controlling over what the mc does? What's wrong with a food truck owner fighting? Can she not fight with her truck? Of course she can, seen in the latest chapters. I get that it has the "best" intentions for the mc, but honestly if something goes wrong, the author should just let it go wrong. It only makes for a more interesting story, at least more interesting than a cat throwing a tantrum.
Not sure about the points thing, I thought it was basically exp. As for the ingredients, she makes the menu, tells the truck what she wants to make, that day and the truck gets the ingredient for the foo
She gets fresh ingredients for the daily menu. Basically she decides on the menu and the truck supplies her accordingly. Hunter points are basically currency. It is money use solely on the hunter market mundane stuff is still paid for in reg money. Think of it as crypto currency. I agree with how you thought the story would go I thought the same. As for the her fighting with her food truck she might not be able to? As far ad we have seen the safe zone is set up using the cat's power. The protective barrier could also be the cat's power. People using your power without asking is annoying. Granted it has explained fuck all to her so it can't complain when she experiments. I kinda get it when it was exasperated by her trying to hunt. Basically it signed up for a cooking manga but the owner is trying to make it into a shounen manga.
I'll keep reading because the characters are cute but I really wish they went with her buiding up her business and skills
you honestly lack reading comprehension skills. the ingredients aren't exactly random. whatever menu she wants, the ingredients for that menu will appear, and it could be specific as to what she has in mind. also, do note that this manhwa is originally in korean, the language nuances will be different. it's like saying seafood and that could mean including fish but in other languages it's specific to shelled sea animals.
her food truck business and guild contract, SIS BE SO FOR REAL THE STORY JUST STARTED. she also stated in her conditions that she has freedom to do business in the dungeon independently. the floor 5 story is obviously an arc? like have you never read other manhwas or watched any shows before? bitch be fr.
finally, the cat spirit is a contractor. while mc owns the foodtruck, all the magic and sourcing belongs to the cat. her job is exactly that, foodtruck owner. not foodtruck cook or anything. just owner, because she owned that truck. all the items there belonged to her so having it remodeled would be the cat's powers and freedom. if you're so mad about it, have some common sense that the mc can't remodel it herself unless she purchases furniture from the store.
last note: she didn't want to be involved with the dungeon after her parents died. this is a heavily covered matter in the story. her job is exactly food truck owner and not hunter, so stay in your lane. how you gonna be mad at the dungeon and get trauma over it and then now you wanna risk your life after doing exactly what you said you wouldn't? very hypocritical
I kind of agree on the plot points, but I don't think we need to get steamed up about it. We're all having fun reading a wholesome slice of life story, and someone needed help understanding the plot better. It's all good!
Didn't have to be this mean but ok ._.
Thank you to everyone (including you) for explaining the thing about the food ingredients. I was reading at 3:00 a.m. so that probably led to my poor reading comprehension skills.
Not sure what your second paragraph was targeting, I was pretty happy about the guild contract plot so I don't know what you're on about.
How about your point about the cat being a contractor, while I understand how you see the situation, that makes me bring forward another point: why doesn't anyone else get their skills through a contractor? It makes the story inconsistent since we don't see any other ability users needing to rely on another being to use their skills. This is so why I felt that it was unnecessary to make the cat seem so dominant over the usage of a skill, which should fundamentally belong to the skill user themselves.
I believe that it will be better if the story had clarified more about the cat's motives, and why it is so aggressive when something doesn't go its way. Like I get being upset when someone (the ml and random guy) used their skill in the magic circle which would disrupt it, but was it necessary for the cat to completely kick them out of the protective zone when there was monsters attacking outside literally seconds ago? Without giving any proper explanation (which was given to the readers by the two guys themselves)? The two guys weren't even disrespecting the cat, they were rather praising the cat for its abilities also felt sorry for using their skills in the protective circle, so I found the spirit's attitude towards them overly aggressive and uncooperative, which prompted me to comment about the spirits attitude. If you feel that it's attitude is justified and completely necessary, do feel free to correct me on your part.
For your last note, I understand that the main character has had negative experiences regarding the death of her parents, but it wasn't in the dungeon. It was when the dungeon wasn't cleared in time, and some dungeon break phenomenon occurred. The main character should be more motivated than not to help contribute to clearing the dungeon. Not necessarily a full-fledged hunter, but at least helping clear some monsters with her huge ass truck, while being also in the safety of her truck. You know like driving over all those tiny monsters like they do in the zombie apocalypse plots with cars.
In fact she does exactly that in the most recent chapter, and she doesn't seem "traumatized" by it. In fact she seemed pretty gusto about it, even before the personality change. It seems that you're assuming that she doesn't want to be a hunter due to a bad experiences when it wasn't necessarily specified to be true in the story.
Of course I might be wrong because I am once again writing this at 2:00 a.m. in the morning, so if I am, I would appreciate if you would reply to me with nicer wording next time.ヾ(❀╹◡╹)ﾉ~
What was the explanation for the plot hole?
The explanation was that only non- combat types get a spirit to guide them. I guess the logic is that there's a lot of combat types so they can just learn from other humans?
Oh. I see the explanation now. Earlier when I first saw the post, I didn't see any replies only the edit. I guess the Mangago comment section was flipping out a bit
