/ Fantasy / Advent of the Three Calamities
概要
[From the Author of Author's POV...]
Emotions are like a drug to us.
The more we experience them, the more we become addicted.
The hardest part is not letting them consume us.
But it's already too late for me.
I've already been swallowed whole.
***
I had no knowledge of the game.
I was meant to have died.
And yet, I found myself in this situation.
A game I had never played before. A character I was unfamiliar with, and... A world that seemed to want to swallow me whole with every move I made.
What the hell is going on?
...and who am I?

レビューを書くHonestly only 16 chapters and I'm already hooked. The novel is a bit strange and hard to understand at the start but when you start to understand what's happening you also understand how great the potential of the novel is.The author focuses on an entirely different path compared to his other novel, we start with an mc already at the top but weak, he reincarnates in an unknown body without any memory, so he doesn't know how to cast any spell and use mana but he's freaking good at emotion magic whose power depends on the understanding of the emotions.It's way better than any other magical novel cause here we don't have a bunch of elemental or conceptual spells that are just dumbed down and spammed but we really understand the intricacy of the spell by feeling the emotions alongside the mc.The author is doing an incredible job at conveying feelings especially by playing with our empathy like a boss.Making me even doubt who the saddest between the mc and me when he cast a sadness spell 🤣.Anyway the mc is thrown in disarray at the very start, without any anchor and knowledge about the world and he's in a difficult situation cause he's placed at the first rank of the academy. Very different to Ren who tried to look as lackluster as possible while being strong when here the mc needs to own up to his rank with his meager strength ...very interesting concept and story, great writing as always , and the world background seems intrigiuing.
ネタバレを明かすThere are not a lot of stories these days that can hook you since start. Good stories have become rare these days. But here I am hooked since prologue. I love the theme of novel which is mainly focused on emotions so I know for sure that it's gonna be a thrilling and blood pumping roller coaster of emotions. MC feels a like person and most importantly human, a real living HUMAN like all of us. He isn't someone who was like. "Oh I died but nah I got transmigrated so like all other Mcs my job should be avoid bad ending and og protagonist and go my way by avoiding death at costs as well as making a lot of strong connection all the way." He behaves how anyone of us could have behaved.He goes through all phases of regret, denial, reluctance, partial acceptance. He doesn't wanna live there he wanna go home where his little brother is. He loves him more than anything even more than himself. So another merit is, he isn't a cold blooded murderer but a sane and principled person. I also love the duality of his character He is mentally broken and sane at the same time. He has suffered by a lot of negative emotions in his past life and is mentally vulnerable but at the same time that's his strongest trait. He is mentally strong because he has already been exposed to all kinds of negativities to extreme. Every chapter is like he is walking on a thin line between sanity and insanity no one knows when and where will he trip. Whether he will loose himself in dark abyss or will be king of its king is still a mystery? So if you wanna know 😜 do give this a try.
I don't even have a single amount of doubt that this will become one of the best novels out there and I am 100% recommendating to everyone and money things to expect from a guy who made me love web novels and is a masterpiece creator. Thanks man, truly from my bottom of my heart. I read you novel first to discover about web novels. you really did change me. Love you, Author, Die heart support to you.
Okay so it's finally review time. I have read "The author's pov" when only 200 chapters were out (the pain while waiting aside). so been a while. I saw Author has a new book so I was just in search of satisfaction like TAPV and honesty i didn't think it could be better because Ren was just really great. But. I am currently over 200 chapters in This novel And I have to admit yes it's better and I see a lot of similarities between Julien and Ren like their funny character it's not bad because we remember our Ben dover this way. I feel this novel is better because this novel made me feel emotions other than satisfaction. Tears came in my eyes several times ( let's blame it on my fever) You learnt how to make us feel the emotions better author. It's really great.. The character development is just really amazing tothe point that I fell in love with Delilah because she's just different than those three immature children who are suppose to be the "calamities". I am supporting Julien and Delilah ship. Hope youend this novel With a great ending like The author's pov. And the pain of waiting for the chapters is really painful we readers getting Pain +0.1 Xp every second. At last Good luck Author, never feel discouraged we are always here supporting you. You are a amazing writer. And chocolates for Delilah 🍫
So far the book is really good. The writing quality of the book is really high and good. Considering who the author is, I don’t doubt that this book will be amazing.
Seeing there's 100 chapters out now I think I can make a proper review . So here it is : [Those who don't want to read all that here's a TLDR:⤵️ It's a amazing novel that is unique and sucks you into its storyline with the plot, forshowing, jokes and interaction with the side-characters (It's a novel that you'll not reget reading)] •The overall story is great and I like that it's different from other novel around transmigration and the 'Extra category'. • The power system is unique and well explained and you can see the me struggling, failing and overcoming unlike in other novels which just say that 'he practiced and was able to achieve it',Here we can see the mc struggle and how he is an outsider to this world. • Now about julien(mc), I like the way author has put together his personality and his emotions (lack there of sometimes) and how these emotions are his powers. From what I've read till now and expecting from him, I can say I'm excited for the future and how he'll overcome his wall of being an outsider. • This novel also does a amazing job at make the side-characters feel real and not just sone pcs like we get in transmigration novels. •(Also I like the dynamic that we have between julien and Leon and would love to see more bromance😏 Between them ) Now about What I expect : • I know l'll sound dumb but l'd like if there is more world building and we get more story's outside of just the academy but I expect that we will see that in the upcoming chapters. Overall it's what we expect from Entrail_Ji: a great story with good upload schedule and I'm excited to see about the future chapters.🎖️
ALL BASED ON MY OPINION if you don't agree that's you. Writing Quality -The writing is similar to that of translated novels. It makes the story feel slow and the pacing dragged on sometimes even boring. I find myself skipping paragraphs that don't involve the MC or something that has to do with the side quest. At times I find myself feeling like dropping the story because of the writing but I want to know more of what happens so I stay 😥.If the author got their writing inspiration from translated novels it's understandable but I'd recommend that you to practice your writing and study other writing styles from different authors in no way am I trying to bash the author in any form. I just feel like if he improved his writing it would make a huge difference. Maybe get an editor too if it helps👀 Also the dialogue feels awkward sometimes. Story development-👀 The arcs have been interesting so far but like I said if the writing was better I'd actually have enjoyed them a lot. My favourite arcs by far were the acting arc and the prison one. The other arcs for me felt a little boring and dragged on for too long for my liking but I think it'll get interesting especially with the introduction of the other emotive mage and the gods of the world let me not forget the memory of him entering Delilah's memory. What can I say I really like lore especially when it's well written. I hope I'm not disappointed. Character design-🙂 I'll start with our MC he's an interesting character and feels complex but... #Leon og mc😑- In my opinion out of the entire main cast I feel like he's the most well written character so far and at times even better then Julian. I feel like he has a lot of potential in the future and he's actually my favourite. #Aoite😐- She at first for me felt like a copy of the fml from tapov but with a bit more pride. I like her character but I don't like how the author writes her. I can see the vision but she feels like all the fml characters I've seen in every novel/anime and manga I've read...I guess I just wanted her to be unique all on her own. In simple terms her character doesn't feel solid. #Kiera😒- Probably why I actually like her character design. Her character is actually solid. Hate her or like her but she's well written and has so much potential for future arcs especially with the secret Julian is keeping from her. She's my second favourite character. She just feels so solid with nothing missing. #Delilah🫥🤖- She also feels like all the other fml characters I've read about with the only thing making her different being her love for chocolate. I honestly feel like the fm teachers in tapov were way better written then her because they had more character and where solid individuals. Meanwhile Delilah feels like a robot that likes chocolate ...at most times. Her internal monologue is not bad because u can tell she's actually a childish person especially with her back story which makes sense but to give her a childish form 🙆😭I didn't agree with that writing choice at all but there must be a reason you did that 🙂↔️😭. I just felt like she could have been more you know, but maybe in the future she will be. But with that said she's my second fav fm character. #Evenly🧍-I'll be honest I didn't like her when she was introduced and I still don't like her now but my dislike for her has decreased. But like someone said she's basically an NPC now and she's 1D that's all. She's 1D and the worst written character so especially if she has an important role she'll play in the future. #Atlas🤗👹- Solid character. I've seen very little of him and he's a way better written character than Delilah so far and he's arguably becoming my favorite just because of how well written he feels. I recommend HOW TO WRITE FANTASY CHARACTER ARCS BETTER THAN 99% OF AUTHORS by Jed Herne on YouTube too. Well written fml characters from books I've read so far are the poppy war, red rising, shadow slave, Percy Jackson I forgot the rest but you can study how they are written if you want. Brandon Sanderson too according to my friends I've yet to read the mistbone series. Let's also not forget Avatar toph, Katara, Azula, Ty Lee etc has a large cast of fml characters that you could study. Updating stability -Not bad. World building-I love world building it's my favourite genre after found family. I'm rating this on the places we've been so far. Academy- ⭐⭐⭐⭐ not my favourite place to be but it feels like a safe haven for our cast since it's the only place that hasn't caused them any trauma. I hope it gets destroyed 👍 Prison arc- ⭐⭐⭐⭐ I honestly loved this one. It was small but the arc was enjoyable especially with how it ended. Author I can't wait until Julian is hated 🙂↕️ The acting arc- ⭐⭐⭐ Also my favourite arc especially with how Julien was written, but it didn't do a lot of world building. Can't wait until he loses control but this time make it longer I love how you're giving us hints that he's going to lose it.And I don't for one second believe that Julien found himself it was too easy especially with the hell he'll have to face. Necromancer arc-⭐⭐⭐It was in a different city which I liked but the world building for me felt separate from the story. Mirror arc- ⭐⭐⭐ I feel like you could have done so much more and explored more of the mirror dimension but I'll understand that it's only because you have the exploration saved up for later. Dora the explorer who??? It's Julian the explorer now. Anyway this was my least fav arc but hey we got owl mighty so there's that ....🙂↔️😭 Priest arc- ⭐⭐ I hated this arc because why did Julien have to lose his memory 😾 I was shaking in my boots praying that no one finds out that he's a fraud 😩😥 Author I was sweating and it also felt unnecessary maybe it'll be explained in the future but for now 🙂↔️ Anyway this is my rating after chap 243. I'll come back for later chapters 🐱✌️ and see if my rating has changed.
*keum* I may have binged almost 300 chapters in one day and called off work once I found out you wrote a new novel. Butanywho, it’s an absolute masterpiece in the making again. I’m just very existed to see where you go with this one. My favorite piece of this is the dad jokes and the emotion xp level ups for comedy. Please dear god continue the comedy with how dark some of this is. It’s a breath of fresh air. ILY do great again and have fun ❤️
The writing quality is excellent (even though there are only 3 chapters right now), the work also has potential like the previous one, knowing who the author is I know it will be a masterpiece so I totally recommend reading it and finally believe me You might like how the story develops so give it a chance. Thank you author for developing a new novel, I had been waiting for months :)
I don't have a shred of doubt about this novel becoming one of the best in coming times. The only advice I will give you is that to not rush it like the end of "The Author's POV". Back to the review: This review is being written as of chapter 50, I will make a new one when it have more chapter in future. -Our main character is a likeable one, especially his wicked sense of humor and his taste in food. -Side character are fleshed out as well, each having their own unique personality. -The world building is not done yet so we only know two-three places but with how good the intro to them was I am sure it will be amazing. -The plot development has started in recent chapters only as the earlier one were intro to the story. -The pacing is good enough not too fast, not too slow. -The power system is being explained as the story is developing and I am liking it very much, as this Indicates that there won't be much info dumps (Author definitely learned from his mistakes when he started TAPOV). All in all it's an amazing novel which will on the trending list in no time. The only think I ask you is to give is more chapters, two chapters a day aren't enough make them at least 10 a day.
Yeah no.. I thought this would be a dark story but yikes, chessy lines, amateurish writing. I felt like i was reading a diary of a 15 year old with some fantasy elements. Main character is beyond edgy and dialogues are out of the place.
This novel should be up there in the top 5 instead of current place. Everything bout this novel is perfect..
What a masterpiece, from the writing and the narrative to the plot and characters. Everything is perfect 👏 The plot heavily relies on 'Emotions', from Mc's character and his development to his powers. It's one thing to write about emotions like anger, sadness, fear... but to make the readers feel what the Mc is feeling is another thing, whenever he spins that wheel, i get really nervous 😅 I love the world building and this world's history that's slowly being unravel arc after arc. Right now, there are so many unanswered questions, and that's what makes it even more interesting. a unique, new, and easy to understand power system. Another positive point is that it's a 'multiple POV' novel, so the characters are all fleshed out and have their personalities, I still don't know who the female lead's gonna be , fortunately I love them all (of course Delilah have a special place In my heart 😁) Did I mention how amazing the writing is? the narrative, how the author changes the POVs so we can see the events in other characters' eyes and thoughts, the dialogs and monologs, their inner thoughts, and ... (I really loved that 'Theater arc' ) Finally, I love Julien as a protagonist, If you feel like you don't like him, read the first 20-30 chapters. That's when some important character development's happening. Don't hesitate to do yourselves a favor and read this masterpiece 😊 have a nice read 📖
The goat is back with his second top tier novel. What's more it seems like it will even surpass The previous work. I hope it does that's how great expectations I have. The character builds amazing though we don't know anything about the world itself. MC is likeable and relatable somehow. I hope his main powers will continue to be emotive magic. Just imagine how cold and cool scene it will be where enemy is prepared with his Cannons and all kind of weapons. people are holding their sords tightly and ready to face you but then you come and your presence is enough to break down their all mental barriers. I bet it will be amazing. Thanks again author for your work.
Hola. I don't like to write reviews much since my mind totally blanks out whenever I'm writing them but since I'm writing one for this novel, you should just get an idea of how good it is. READ THE CONCLUSION FOR TL; DR. Anyways, let's start. Writing Quality: As a person who was an avid reader of TAPOV from the start, I cannot help but honestly say this was such a huge positive jump by Entrail. Emotions are not easy to portray. Though they are easy in dramas and shows since we can visibly see the characters, it's a completely different talk in novels. You need a concise and perfect writing style to actually make your readers feel the emotions and I must say that Entrail completely nailed that aspect. I have caught up to 285 chapters of the novel, and each time he didn't fail to make me feel the emotion outside the screen that he was trying to portray in the novel. So massive kudos to him for that. I love his writing style and I hope it will improve and stay like this throughout the novel. Stability of Updates: Though one might say there is an issue of consistency here, I must completely disagree. As an author myself, I struggle to write even 1000 words per day. And as someone who writes 2000 words per chapter and delivers two of them normally, I find the stability completely perfect from Entrail. And each time even if there is a break, there is an appropriate reason provided and we get a mass release so I don't find any bad thing in this. Story Development: Without a doubt, till now the story has me completely hooked. Though it might seem generic to you guys with the system and all, it's unique and fleshed out. Each plot has a new mystery and vibe to it that properly develops the story and fleshes out each character. Something so minor that happened in past chapters might be linked in the future and being completely honest, even if you guys find some arcs boring cause of the emotions and such, the payoff is just as good. I'm loving the story so far. Character Design: This is an aspect that is completely nailed to the point by Entrail if I have to be completely honest. He fleshes out each character and their personality so much that they feel absolutely real. SPOILER ALERT: Especially so with Julien's power which enables him to see other people's past and traumas through which he reveals the backstory of a character and fleshes them out so perfectly. World Background: The World Background of this novel is on par with some of the top novels out there for me. With 3 eras and many other small events and the unique power building, this aspect was so well developed. The lore and the connections dating back to the previous eras are really good along with how he properly explains the relations and backstory of each place. CONCLUSION: Overall, I love this novel and it's one of the top 10's for me. The writing quality is so refined and well developed not just compared to TAPOV, but as a whole. Except for some minor issues, the stability of updates is completely normal and I love how the story is developing till now. Character Designs are also perfectly fleshed out with explanations and their backstory, making them feel so real. The World Background is also deep and developed nicely. Thanks to Entrail for delivering such a banger to us. And at last, I would like to say a line said by the author himself: THIS WILL REACH THE PEAK!
(BAD ENGLISH sorry I'm French) as lover of you first work I have to read this one so for now no many chapters only 6 so can't really judge but I feel is can be fascinating I feel like the MC are no isekai, but regressor like one other I know hahaha and was the "villain" so for now the world look classic, but good use of this hope see more the power of the MC look really cool and no only useful in fight but in everyday life, but we see like nothing about so wait for more. Have good day and good reading.
To the Author: I read your first book because of its similarity to The Novel's Extra, and the fact you admitted it was inspired from it (I absolutely ADORE TNE), and I wasn't disappointed. Sure the writing wasn't of the highest grade, it was definitely a few steps above average. Love what you did with what is seemingly a spin-off of TNE, and how you made it your own book. Also the fact you admitted it's inspired from TNE made you seem more likeable as a person. Reading your second book now, and boy am I glad I'm reading it! The premise is absolutely unique despite being based of a common troupe, the characters all have actual backgrounds, and the MC's growth is also pretty nice. If I were to pick out one thing I don't like, I'd say it's that the character are a bit 'too' similar. Sure, it's good to give every character background, but it doesn't exactly make sense that everyone seems to be hiding a secret and some kind of dark past, or just have an overall gloomy temperament. Like seriously, they're all kids. And even if it's to fit the overall dark theme, at least one or two people should still be bright and sunny, no? But other than that, great book overall. I look forward to what more it has in store😁

Hello, author here. I held off on review until I managed to get some things sorted. I’m excited to announce my second book on this platform. Advent of the Three Calamities. If you’ve read my previous book, then you’ll come to find some similarities between the two books. Mostly in the plot twists, and interactions. I’ve taken a long break since my last novel. There were A LOT of things I was unsatisfied with. Hopefully, this book will be better. I hope it is. Thank you for your support!
