## My Thoughts on *I Obviously Just Want to be a Minor Character* I dove into *I Obviously Just Want to be a Minor Character* with a healthy dose of curiosity, given its intriguing title and the xuanhuan tag. The premise of an overpowered protagonist trying to lay low in a school setting is a trope I usually enjoy, so I was eager to see how this story would play out. ### First Impressions Initially, I found the pacing to be a bit of a hurdle. The early chapters felt somewhat slow, lacking that immediate hook to truly grab my attention. The absence of a pressing threat or significant conflict in the beginning made it a little challenging to stay fully invested. It felt like the story was taking its time to set the stage, perhaps a bit too much for my liking. ### What Works Well However, once the story found its footing, I began to appreciate its strengths. The protagonist's characterization is definitely a highlight. I enjoyed his cautious nature and his self-awareness, especially his humorous observations about the typical "saintly" MCs often found in similar stories. His acknowledgement of his own moral grayness made him relatable and added depth to his actions. The lighthearted tone, balanced with moments of genuine emotion, made for an enjoyable read overall. I also appreciated that the harem aspect wasn't overblown, even with multiple interested parties. ### Areas of Concern The initial slow pace remains a significant drawback. While the story does pick up eventually, the early chapters might deter some readers from continuing. It requires patience to get past the initial setup and reach the more engaging parts of the narrative. Also, while I didn't personally mind it, readers seeking a deeply complex or philosophical story might find this one lacking in depth. It's primarily entertainment-focused, which isn't necessarily a bad thing, but it's important to manage expectations accordingly. ### Final Verdict *I Obviously Just Want to be a Minor Character* is a decent read, particularly if you enjoy lighthearted xuanhuan with a cautious and self-aware protagonist. While the slow start might test your patience, the story does offer a satisfying and entertaining experience once it gets going. Just be prepared for a more lighthearted adventure rather than a deeply intricate epic.
