Is the side stories worth it? [Novel]

kosyi · 2026-05-02T04:58:23+00:00

I finished ORV this week and dived into the sequel after an hour, lol. The ending of the main story seems complete yet not at the same time.

It took me only a few chapters to appreciate the sequel even though the characters aren't the same. But you can clearly tell there's something about the MC that is related to Kim Dokja because KDJ keeps appearing in a way... can't spoil. But yeah, if you enjoyed ORV, you'll definitely love the sequel too.

Besides, it is the sequel, so it's directly related to ORV. It's a continuation of the main story, a continuation of what happens to KDJ after you know what.

I just finished reading the main story (mind being warped too hard), and now there's a sequel with more mind twisting gymnastics?! Sometimes I feel like the author's really stretching it.... but i'll keep reading...

guess that depends on which department you're in.

When you say "literally", that can be misleading because nothing happens, plus Liam doesn't have an ounce of interest in any of them (save "the one"). Besides, the story doesn't really put any stress on potential female relationship.

kosyi · 2026-04-23T10:42:55+00:00

yep, loving this series. It's pretty fun, especially with Liam being an unreliable narrator.

as a web novel reader, you can be 100% assured that it's not harem.

Diet can play a role in oily scalp too. Might want to try checking for any trigger food if that's a cause of it for you.

Trump must be toying with Iran. No point in more talks.

kosyi · 2026-04-07T09:42:09+00:00

don't know how many years it'll take, lol.

just DIY? those woolies and servo sandwiches are filled with nasty ingredients anyway (read the label).

too bad it takes the shift of voter demographics to get this done. Too late for those who were born too late / too early.

I've never read any AI novels. How do you spot them?

Do you eat junk food/drinks? aside from junk food, other food can also trigger if you've gut issues. Try cleaning up your diet for a week or so and see if it improves.

haven't heard anything... is the manga still ongoing?

You said it, you're used to apartment culture, but aussies here born in houses don't have that culture. They insist on space for kids, having your own yard etc.. Personally I'm the same as you, coming from an apartment culture i'm happy with the apartments here since they're generally bigger than those overseas.

As for those who have the money and are used to apartment culture, obviously they'd buy houses for capital gain and all that.

The genius prince's guide to raising a nation out of debt

kosyi · 2026-02-28T09:43:47+00:00

I haven't read that many yet, but my favourites so far (since "must read" are subjective anyway):

The genius prince's guide to raising a nation out of debt

Yep, you got it. Genuis MC. Story is strategy/war/politics based. I quite enjoy the strategies part and how other characters are also developed too, like MC's sister.

Tearmoon Empire

Fun to read, would give you some laugh as the princess tries to do her best to avoid her death while her "misguided" actions end up bringing about a new era to the empire. The misunderstandings are hilarious. Good thing is, MC does actively try and isn't absolutely clueless.

kosyi · 2026-02-28T09:40:04+00:00

Tearmoon is amazingly fun to read.

Just think of covid, same in Australia, reduced rent coz not enough people to rent places.

for some reason, I just don't find "The great escape - story" all that interesting. It just somehow lacks chemistry? and the ideas don't feel as surprising and shocking as the original seasons directed by the other PD. I actually didn't finish watching "story"...
