Reviews of I have Nine Lives by KaiokenGuy - Webnovel

I'm going to tell you now that you might want to skip the first 30 chapters atleast because 1. the cat is scared to "die" with 4 lives left to the point of leaving others to die for him. 2. The cat doesn't do any damage or contribute much to the story, we got a gladiator type scene at the beginning mainly for the purpose of killing a likeable character. 3. The story is pretty annoying at parts, this is coming from someone who enjoys SOME 3 star books, I'm not saying to not read the book but for the first 30 chapters it's mostly a prologue with like a chapter of info that isn't very useful after the gladiator scene. 4. If you're looking for a cat that's able to use his abilities efficiently, you're gonna need to skip till around chapter 30, he doesn't use it much for the first chapters, from 1 to 30 he uses it around 4 times, and it mostly explains the uses of the lives but since I said to skip till chapter 30 I'll tell you, the lives work as a game life from Mario, He has limited lives but he spawns above where he died so basically he falls from above after he dies. And just so you don't figure it out, he's supposedly the descendant of a different race of cats from that world so he gets an ability that allows him to go invisible when he walks and breathes in a certain pattern while other cats can use a different version of that ability. Writing Quality is ok but 1-30 is what I'd call a prologue and it doesn't really give information that's useful and the author doesn't tell us those things. Story Development isn't that great, because even if I like different books at different paces this one is a little on the extreme. Character Design is pretty bad, the mc doesn't use his abilities efficiently and he's more of a side character with a bit of personality(scared of dying with multiple lives) and while I do like many genre's chaoticnuetral doesn't work well with a character that's only chaoticnuetral when he's scared instead of a character that doesn't care and knows he can't or doesn't need to do anything. World Background is pretty good, not great but we do get a good amount of information about the world but it's mostly centered around 2 regions and the rest we get in passing remarks. Hope this helped you with reading and don't feel bad about skipping chapters, I wish I did it but I atleast want to help other readers. Have a good day!

it a good story that updates regularly it has a good plot and story I like the main characters and I like how he gets stronger is realistic and makes sense

The story is well written and has a nice start and concept but throws the concept away really fast. Spelling and grammar is not bad. There is a trigger moment in the story that could sirously turn people away, chapter 10 or 11. (Rape then death of an Ally, the first and only true Ally). At first the cruelty and focused mentality nicely depicted the animalistic side of the animal/MC. Kindness where kindness is due, but survival above all else. I wouldn't have minded continueing the story if the MC's moral and ethics stayed in this animalistic spectrum. (He asked AND answered himself that he WOULD abandoned his Ally again if he was at that moment in time again). The whole redemption after like 4~6 chapters later feels like a cop out after the author getting alot of hate I guess. The hate and anguish of the family member to the MC, after hearing about the Ally's death but not the rape, made sense. (I don't care how many sleeping visions you get, I'm not gonna forgive you ever. Fuck some shitty quote or items and shit.) Oh and the whole thing about having 9 lives doesn't matter anymore after like 15 chapters. Our MC is back to a normal webnovel Protagonist with 1 live. He starts acting like a normal person with only 1 life. Maybe later he'll get them back... somehow. But not having it already build in at the beginning, how he can get 'Cat lives' back, would feel too ham fisted to me. The world is ok, animals with wuxia skills and powers. Now the Young arrogant Nobel has an even clearer species advantage TO be arrogant. I had to drop it cause the story was getting a little wack for me. Both wanting to be an Animal Emo Edge Lord and sympathetic hero.
