After Turning Into a Cub, I Became Everyone’s Favorite

The demon race, which hadn’t seen a newborn in a century, finally found their long-lost cub. As a mixed-breed species, Lu Congxing’s bloodline was highly unstable—every time he woke up, he was a completely different creature. The Bureau of Supernatural Affairs told him that the only way to stabilize his humanoid form was to have close contact with a powerful demon with a stable bloodline. Lu Congxing, steadfast and unyielding, flatly refused. He was someone who could punch a ghost to death—how could he possibly rely on acting cute to survive? Especially in front of his sworn enemy! That night, he stared at his own fluffy little paws in deep contemplation. The soft, pink pads weren’t even strong enough to land a hit on a ghost. Steadfast and unyielding? More like adaptable and flexible. Lu Congxing immediately packed his things and moved in across from his sworn enemy, He Zhouyan. With great reluctance, he exposed his soft little belly for some petting. . . . . . As the last surviving Bai Ze in the world, He Zhouyan had always had terrible luck with animals. Yet recently, strange little creatures kept throwing themselves at him, even when he was just walking down the street. Staring at the fluffy thing sprawled at his feet, belly up once again, He Zhouyan hesitantly reached out… . . . . . One day, Lu Congxing, injured and transformed into a tiny piglet, was picked up off the street by He Zhouyan and brought home. On the outside, Lu Congxing played the part of an obedient little cub, but inside, he was furiously roasting this detestable man—criticizing everything from his fashion sense to his character. What he didn’t know was that, as a Bai Ze, He Zhouyan had an unpredictable passive ability: the power to hear the thoughts of all living beings. Looking at the adorable little piglet in his arms, He Zhouyan chuckled and mused, “Hmm… I bet it would make a great stew.” Little piglet Xing: !!!

## My Thoughts on After Turning Into a Cub, I Became Everyone’s Favorite Okay, let's dive into "After Turning Into a Cub, I Became Everyone’s Favorite." I went in expecting a fluffy, comedic xuanhuan, and that's largely what I got. It was a fun, quick read, but it definitely had some areas that could have been fleshed out more. ### First Impressions The premise is undeniably cute: a male protagonist reincarnates as a cub and becomes the darling of powerful figures. The initial chapters were engaging, drawing me into the world of demons and mythical beasts. I was definitely hooked by the comedic undertones and the promise of doting love interests. ### What Works Well The author does a great job of creating a lighthearted atmosphere. The interactions between the MC and his love interests were often hilarious and heartwarming. The fantasy elements were also intriguing, with interesting mythology woven into the plot. I particularly enjoyed the unique abilities and transformations showcased throughout the story. The plot, while not groundbreaking, provided enough substance to keep me invested beyond just pure fluff. ### Areas of Concern My main issue lies with the pacing and the ending. While I appreciated the overall story, it felt like certain plot points were rushed, and the conclusion felt somewhat incomplete. I would have loved to see more exploration of the MC's identity after certain revelations. Did he retain his powers? How did he find a new purpose? These questions lingered, leaving me wanting more. Also, the age gap between the MC and the ML is something that readers may find questionable. ### ⚠️ Spoiler Warning Some readers may find the age gap between the MC, who starts as a cub, and the ML, a millennia-old beast, a bit off-putting. The ML initially acts as a guardian but later develops romantic feelings. ### Final Verdict Despite its flaws, "After Turning Into a Cub, I Became Everyone’s Favorite" is an enjoyable read if you're looking for something light, fluffy, and comedic. The cute protagonist, doting love interests, and interesting mythology make it a worthwhile escape, just be prepared for a potentially rushed ending and an age gap that might raise an eyebrow. I'd give it a solid 3.5 out of 5 stars.
