Fated villain Review: good trash The Fated Villain is so trash. The MC has so many advantages and privileges that its not even fair for anyone to exist in the same universe as him. Its like watching a chess match where one side starts with all queens and the other gets a pawn with a limp. First he has an overpowered system that basically functions as a cheat code. It tells him everythingfrom future events to secret identities so good luck trying to pull off a disguise or a surprise attack. The system also hands out rewards like candy at Halloween making his cultivation progress faster than anyone elses by a mile. Second his pretty face is a literal weapon. People betray childhood friends sects and their own moral compass just to breathe the same air as him. He seduces a multithousandyearold empress in two days flat reducing her to a love struck teenager with zero emotional maturity or life experience trusting him with her life despite knowing little to nothing about him. not to mention Third his family bullies the entire verse. He can pick a fight with any clan sect or ancient bloodline and his ancestors will just show up and erase them from existence. No consequences no nuance just cosmiclevel nepotism. And then theres the final most infuriating advantage: IQ. The MC is written like a reincarnated Mary Sue who solved quantum mechanics in preschool. Meanwhile 99 of the universe is populated by NPCs who cant do basic pattern recognition. I can count on one hand the number of characters who even suspect hes suspicious and theyre either dead irrelevant or conveniently silenced by the previous points mentioned. Its like watching someone play Skyrim with a ridiculous number of mods installed godtier gear infinite stats and charisma maxed out just to bully NPCs who in a fair world would never lose to him. Despite all this I keep reading. Why? Because its good trash. If you go in expecting depth youll be disappointed. But if you want to watch a walking cheat code flex on the universe while everyone else drools or dies this is your buffet.
