Stacking My Abilities by SmallFries

So did he pull it off?

of course japanese novel story go around with power of friends even that is some bullshit.

I can say that western authors have image of perfect novel but it's unreachable. They want make thing more realistic and live but often overload with it and ruin all. They almost always make too much drama, inner mc drama and moral choices, power system description, romantic (just every second novel have half of content is romantic), etc. If author want make different pov, they put it in every possible way, like they can't describe emotions other way except direct char saying "i'm feel ___". Maybe it's happen bcoz authors growth on world famous classic fantasy and sci-fi and want to be next "classic"... However in western webnovels i see more new ideas, unluckily most of them ruined by "realistic".

Chinese authors use one setting with little variations, they don't need focus on power system and common worldbuilding things, they can write about worlds, organizations and persons more freely, but this shared setting include all cliches so they forced follow all cliche or this setting will break. Chinese authors make mc's thoughtway more straight, they almost never make their mc's self-criticism in dozens chaps and so. And surprisingly it's look more liveish sometimes than western endless moral drama and endless reasoning amoral actions. Chinese webnovels is readable bubblegum at most, but most of my top 5 is Chinese.

Jap authors just make some lighthearted stories with alot of slice of live. Mc almost always have 0 ambition or so dumb so they can't change their goals, like: "You have power to wipe off entire world, why you keep go to school? I must doing the right things!" or "You transported another world, why you still respect Jap laws? It's right". World around mc always go with mc's viewpoint (mc want calm live and world extremely friendly). I barely can't read Jap novels bcoz mc and friendly world, it's so forced that become annoying.

Korean novels main themes is games, society and personality. Games aspect like cultivation - have one face for all novels. Society aspect about cooperation, command work, government and corps. Personality aspect about description actions reason, mc's thought and char grow. These stories very balanced except game aspect, a lot of game. Korean novels are good, but there aren't much masterpieces, only commons. After reading dozens of them it's become boring.

And last part that always need to be in such comments: i'm not talking about absolutely all novel in the world, but about most of them, at least most of readed by me.
