Description

Resurrecting after death seems to be a good thing. Resurrecting in another world after death doesn't seem like a bad thing either... But resurrecting in another world and inexplicably being switched into a female body... well, that's hard to say it's a good thing. Resurrecting in another world and being changed into a different body, and also becoming extremely weak! That is definitely a bad thing! Our protagonist was born a man, but due to a mistake made by the King of Hell after a drunken night, his grand plans were instantly shattered. With this delicate daughter's body, how can he fulfill his ambitions? With just his fists now, how can he survive in this otherworldly realm? "If you want me to save the world? Fine. But first, give me back my body—!!!" And so, she embarked on a journey to reclaim her original body...

Not bad at all. Though it would've been better if the main character wasn't incarnated into a reality managed by demons... Bla Bla Bla Bla Bla Bla Bla Bla. This is a fine review, you agree with it... O0~ your mind is being affected by my words~ Nobody expects surprise hypnotism in the review section!

Now let me first preface that I gave 5 stars not because it's amazing, but because it is doing exactly what it stated, and it's doing it perfectly. I may not like it, or connect with it but, every thing has a reason that if you paid attention is made apparent.
First off I believe the author should change the stories title to, [Devastating Beauty] both literally with the main characters martial art skill, as well as with their appearance. If you want to get fancy with it and play to the current trend then [Devastating Beauty: A Martial Artist Path Of Reclamation].
I also believe the synopsis needs to be re written since it is incorrect. Or atleast phrased incorrectly and giving the wrong assumption. A it needs a paragraph break, and b it doesn't do the story justice.
Now bellow is a spoiler which is my counter to the absolutely stupid review made by Sable99. Author if you see this please read it and give me your opinion on if I am close to being right or not.
Okay read this, A. The author clearly states that the MC has the [Fate of a Women] this doesn't just mean being a women, but a heaven toppling women that makes anyone stupid just by looking at her.
Yama said her previous life names and while I don't know chinese mythos I would bet money that those names are peerless beauty who are don't to be empire destroying. He also mention how one of the past lifes may have been a primordial goddess.
So don't put modern perspective on it and calling MC a man who was a transgender cause technically, it was a female begging to be a male in her next life, got it, and then turned into a women in the end. Full circle dude.
Yea he may not have memories of his past life but like Yama said, his very soul remembers what it means to be a WOMEN (bold because I mean more along the lines of the metaphysical concept of women, and to emphasize my point).
Also transgender means that his base male body was changed to be female. But it was not, instead his soul was inserted into a female body

I very much wanted to like this story. Everything about the premise of the story sounded great. I like gender-bender as a genre. Overall, the story is competently written, very readable, and with no spelling or grammar errors. So far, so good…
Unfortunately, there are numerous problems with the story. First of all, it is mis-tagged. No gender bender tag and no “male lead” tag. Why the latter? Well, the protagonist is clearly a transgender man stuck in a woman’s body. However, he is constantly misgendered by everyone around him, even the author. This is kind of played for comedy (more on that later) but it really comes off more as horror and really makes the story uncomfortable to read because who would want to suffer through that kind of experience?
Additionally, almost everyone in the story is an idiot – especially the MC. This is almost certainly intentional on the author’s part. I am sure the author is deliberately trying for comedy here, asking himself “what would be the stupidest thing the characters involved could do here?” and having them do that. Unfortunately, this makes it very hard to empathize with any of the characters, or to suspend disbelief. A world in which everyone is doing the stupidest possible thing at any given moment is just not believable or immersive, and I cannot care about an MC this dumb and self-destructive.
The “idiot ball” extends to men, of course, and so almost every man he meets immediately becomes a drooling idiot rapist who has to be beat up by the MC. For comedy, apparently? I dunno but men in this world seem to be almost universally irredeemable scum. Yes, this includes the MC, starting with his interaction with the very first people he talks to.
Finally, the comedy, which I’ve mentioned a lot so far. It’s bad. I never really laughed at anything that happened. It was all too sad, or horrifying, or just so unbelievable I couldn’t connect with what was happening. It wasn’t even on the level of slapstick. And – it’s constant. Every

★ 1.0
The story reads like a poorly done translation into English of somebody else's work rather than an original story even one written by a non native speaker.
Many character names aren't consistent across chapters, There are even points where it appears as if characters are given someone else's name.
Many other common examples of mistranslations found in such stories are present throughout
On to the actual story the synopsis doesn't match the content and so it doesn't really deliver on the premise.
The story relies on the tired and overdone trope of a main character unable to express themselves beyond shouting and a cast of supporting characters incapable of listening to bumble along an unstructured path. This is made worse by a language barrier between the main character and cast only ever used in an attempt at humour that more often than not misses the mark.
World building is none existent with relevant countries, social structure, technology and magic given a passing glance at most only when necessary in the moment to progress the plot. If the story wants a character to be able or unable to do something magical they just can with no structured framework of how it all works. Anything introduced is nothing more than a throw away moment barely if at all relevant down the line.
Enemy schemes are simultaneously simpleminded and convoluted. A bad guy is bad because he's a bad guy and despite being in a position to easily achieve their goals they take a roundabout method with no rhyme or reason involving those throw away moments.
