## My Thoughts on My Girlfriend is a Zombie "My Girlfriend is a Zombie" is a wild ride of a web novel, and I came away with mixed feelings. It's a blend of genres that shouldn't work but somehow manages to be entertaining, at least for a while. ### First Impressions Initially, I was drawn in by the premise: a zombie apocalypse with a twist. The main character has the ability to control zombies, and he's determined to save his childhood crush who, unfortunately, is now one of the undead. It's a unique starting point that sets it apart from your typical zombie survival story. ### What Works Well The story's world-building is decent, especially early on. I appreciate how the author avoids naming specific cities, instead opting for generic names like "City X" or "City Z," which helps to create a sense of unease and unfamiliarity. Many readers praised the female characters, noting that they have more depth than you might expect in a harem story, even if many of them are, well, zombies. I also found the MC's initial motivations compelling. His drive to save his girlfriend and his willingness to do whatever it takes to survive in this new world are admirable. ### Areas of Concern However, as the story progresses, some cracks start to appear. Several reviewers expressed concerns about the MC's character development, or rather, devolution. He seems to shift from a determined survivor to a lecherous weirdo, which can be off-putting. I also noticed several readers mentioning that the plot becomes repetitive, with the MC constantly using his zombie puppets to fight other zombies. The power scaling also becomes inconsistent, with characters' abilities seemingly changing to fit the plot. The ending is also a major point of contention. Apparently, the story was axed, leading to a rushed and unsatisfying conclusion. ### ⚠️ Spoiler Warning Several reviewers mentioned that the MC's relationships with his zombie girlfriends become increasingly problematic, with some going so far as to accuse him of necrophilia. Others pointed out that the MC becomes increasingly hypocritical, looking down on normal people while simultaneously exploiting his zombie companions. ### Final Verdict "My Girlfriend is a Zombie" is a flawed but ultimately entertaining web novel. It has a unique premise, interesting characters, and a decent world-building. However, it also suffers from inconsistent character development, repetitive plotlines, and a rushed ending. If you're a fan of zombie stories with a heavy dose of ecchi and harem elements, you might enjoy this one. Just be prepared for some questionable content and a disappointing conclusion. I'd give it a cautious recommendation, maybe around a 3.5 out of 5.
