Another shameless author rating his webnovel with 5/5. Do you like weak to strong MC? Do you like contants struggles and almost impossible fights? Do you like Caterpillars? No? Thats fine! If you said yes to most of them or none, check out this novel, know about a very unfortunate otaku reincarnating into a caterpillar and being constantly toyed by a sick god. Experience his constant struggles to go on the top of the food chain, with a lot of ridiculous reactions and sick comedy, and a well developed and intrincating System!

This story is a true gem and clearly beats many of the stories in the upper rankings. The beginning chapters had some glaring issues such as cringe due to the nature of the MC and some of the dialogue (very chuuni); this issue becomes moot in very little time. This can be attributed to the excellent character and world developing skills of (PancakesWitch); as the story progresses and the MC gains confidence, the dialogue between her and other characters steadily increase in it's quality. Another glowing point of this story is that the MC feels real, she is no hero and doesn't randomly help others for no particular reason. In saying that, the MC is really naive in the beginning and as the story progresses, her attention to details increase and more thought is put into actions. If anything, Kireina fits the role of anti-hero best, She is no goody two-shoes and certainly no villain either; whats interesting here though,is that as Kireina grows her family and gains things and people she desires to protect, the more she is willing to do to protect them and become stronger. An excellent example of this is her willingness to eat people, in the beginning she is apprehensive to do such a thing but eventually casts aside that apprehension in favour of the benefits. Another really strong point of this novel is it's world and how it expands. The world in this novel is really unique with quirky ideas such as the snowy mountain walls and the astral road. In nearly every chapter the reader is introduced to new and fantastical races with many unique creatures that aren't an archetype of an existing earth creature. The world building is really stellar in this novel and really utilizes the 'show don't tell' rule by having much of the exposition being given in side chapters by minor characters which give us this information by comparing common sense to the situation in cases where Kireina often breaks it. This effectively provides lore and also indicates not only how Kireina views this world but also how the world sees Kireina. Overall, this is an excellent novel and many of the wrinkles are only present in the first few chapters and these are ironed out. The release schedule is excellent with a new (and long (*v*)) chapter everyday with the occasional rapid releases. Solid characters which don't feel overshadowed by the MC and an excellent ever growing world. 5/5

This book is great, while the genderbender protagonist at the beginning threw me off a little bit, the plot and action afterwards throughly captured my attention. Great fight scenes mixed with character growth (literally and emotionally). Also the authors naming sense for skills and monster is top notch. Love it.

Let's start by saying that the protagonist is a gender bender. He is a perverted protagonist and very unsure of himself. He has no social skills and is very stupid and is not at all charismatic or intriguing. If he were to make a similarity with another character he would be similar to the hero with the spear from the shield hero. Basically a complete womanizer. The grammar is great and the style is excellent too. The world is almost obsessively inspired by other works, there is nothing wrong with that being the case, they are simple tastes and writing ideas. The characters evolve well so to speak, but certainly we could do better but also worse. All in all it's a great story to read if you like these stories and a protagonist with these tendencies. If this is not the case, I advise you not to even go near the opera, because it will make you spit poison.

Author is pretty experienced with writing a good story, and generally very creative. However I just don't understand the need for the MC to be a male at first, and keep reminding the reader that he is one, even though I don't think it matter much. other than that, great story! Thank you for writing it:)

Title: An Unforgettable Epic of Transformation - "Epic of Caterpillar" "Epic of Caterpillar" is a web novel that has captured my heart and imagination like no other. As an avid reader of online literature, I've encountered a wide range of stories, but this one stands out for its exceptional storytelling, unique premise, and the profound message it conveys. In this review, I will delve into the reasons why "Epic of Caterpillar" is a must-read for anyone seeking a transformative literary journey. At its core, "Epic of Caterpillar" is a tale of personal growth, resilience, and the extraordinary journey of a seemingly insignificant creature. The author's storytelling prowess is nothing short of extraordinary, immediately immersing readers in a world of wonder, adventure, and profound self-discovery. The story is so captivating that it becomes almost impossible to put down. One of the most remarkable aspects of this web novel is its unconventional premise. The protagonist is not a mighty hero or a mystical being but a humble caterpillar, a creature often overlooked in the grand tapestry of life. The author's ability to breathe life into this unlikely hero and make readers care deeply about its journey is a testament to their narrative skill. The transformation of the caterpillar, both physically and metaphorically, is a captivating and inspiring narrative arc. The world-building in "Epic of Caterpillar" is deceptively simple but remarkably effective. The author creates a microcosm within the story, focusing on the caterpillar's world as it navigates the challenges of nature. The level of detail and vivid descriptions bring this miniature world to life, making it easy for readers to empathize with the caterpillar's struggles and triumphs. The characters in "Epic of Caterpillar," particularly the protagonist, are beautifully portrayed. The caterpillar's journey is a metaphor for the universal human experience of growth, change, and self-discovery. As readers follow its transformation, they can't help but see reflections of their own lives and personal development. This relatability is a testament to the author's ability to craft characters with depth and resonance. Moreover, the character interactions in the novel are portrayed with subtlety and grace. While the story primarily focuses on the caterpillar's solitary journey, the occasional encounters with other creatures in its microcosm add layers of depth to the narrative. These interactions underscore the interconnectedness of all life forms and emphasize the importance of empathy and understanding. The thematic richness of "Epic of Caterpillar" is another of its many strengths. The story explores profound themes such as change, perseverance, and the inherent beauty of transformation. It serves as a poignant reminder that growth often requires resilience and adaptability, and that even the smallest of beings can embark on epic journeys of self-discovery. The pacing of the novel is superb. It strikes a perfect balance between moments of introspection and action. This balance ensures that the story never feels rushed, allowing readers to savor each stage of the caterpillar's transformation and internalize the lessons it imparts. The author's ability to maintain a sense of wonder and anticipation throughout the narrative is truly remarkable. The prose in "Epic of Caterpillar" is elegant in its simplicity. The writing is concise yet poignant, and the descriptions are vivid and evocative without being overly verbose. This simplicity adds to the charm of the story and allows readers to connect with the caterpillar's experiences on a deeply emotional level. Additionally, the accessibility of the novel on the webnovel.com platform enhances the overall reading experience. The user-friendly interface makes it convenient to read and follow updates, and the ability to engage with other readers through comments and reviews fosters a sense of community among fans of the novel. It's a platform that encourages readers to share their thoughts and interpretations of the story, creating a collaborative reading experience. Character development in "Epic of Caterpillar" is a true highlight. The protagonist's journey from a lowly caterpillar to a magnificent butterfly is a metaphor for personal growth and transformation. It is a joy to witness the caterpillar's evolution, and its experiences serve as a source of inspiration for readers as they reflect on their own life journeys. Furthermore, the novel carries a profound message about the beauty of change and the importance of embracing growth and transformation. It encourages readers to see the potential for greatness within themselves, even in the face of challenges and adversity. "Epic of Caterpillar" reminds us that transformation is a natural and beautiful part of life, and that we, like the caterpillar, have the capacity to emerge from our struggles as something magnificent. In conclusion, "Epic of Caterpillar" is a literary gem that deserves the highest praise. With its unique premise, heartfelt storytelling, relatable characters, and profound message, it offers a reading experience that is both heartwarming and transformative. I wholeheartedly recommend this novel to anyone seeking a deeply moving and inspiring story. "Epic of Caterpillar" is a testament to the power of literature to touch the soul and remind us of the profound beauty of growth and change. I eagerly await each new chapter, eager to continue my journey alongside the humble caterpillar as it unfolds its epic transformation.

This is hilarious and I really like the characters and their development especially the main character and how he gets used to life as a monster and embraces it and the world setting like how gods and their descendants make up the realm and how there was human supremacy and the system balanced their growth with the monsters have the ability to evolve. Overall love the story ❤️

I got into this series late. not yet at ch. 1000 but as Pancake kept writing, the quality got better and better. excellent character development and supporting cast. Can't give a perfect score, but excellent quality and will continue to read. the degenerate part of me kind of wants to see a more submissive Kireina but that merely me being scum.

I am not too far in just yet. If you have ever read Re:Monster this is extremely similar. Instead of being reincarnated as a goblin the mc is born as a caterpillar. He can eat anything to gain skills and starts building up a base of monsters. The writing can be pretty chaotic especially when some of his skills are active and there is a bunch of internal conversation.

You should make it so she becomes a different race. Since she can now evolve. Pity she can’t become a dragon or sum tho. Non the less tho. Her kids will be more different if she were to have more hehe Some reason I like it when she has kids 🤔 maybe cuz there uniqueness.. yes that’s it

Overall I think it's great but the one thing that irks me is that it's kind of hard to notice all the wives since she has so many. Well, I haven't really caught up to the updates but for now, it's just hard for me to even remember their names. I hope that the author does do a better job of assimilating characters. I honestly barely remember half the wives because their almost irrelevant.

well honestly I didn't even read any of your novels but here I am writing this review, because I only wants to say bro you are amazing how can you write so much(no of books and chapters) even though you didn't get that much popularity compared to hard work you have done, maybe it's a Hobby for you if not or even if it is then I was really overwhelmed by your constant hard work(except break) and patience because everyone doesn't have it. Lastly appreciating your work THANKYOU (now I am goona read it)
