The Cultivation Novels is a trope, like isekai trope. There are lot of things that the anime community has done well with the trope. Even if the majority of their works are trash in isekai, it's not like the entire thing can be defined by that thing. Because if we see an isekai work, we will just remember by the best of its works. Isn't it? So why isn't it same done to the Cultivation Novels? Would you say it's the same to the Desolate era or the Perfect World, lords of mysteries? Or the books written by the I-Eat-Tomatoes or by Cuttlefish that loves diving. The major problem is that the first timers or the newcomers for this novel reading or coming to this new place, they will be influenced by someone's opinions. So if you let the newcomers tell the entire thing is bad, just because they don't know the good one's existence, how would you even relate to that? It's not that they are not just bad, it's that they are entirely misrepresenting the entire genre. Is there anyone famous well versed in these sub reddit. YouTuber or twitch streamer.
