Reviews of As A Cardinal, I Don't Do Overtime by Southsky Star - Webnovel

As usual, a good premise ruined by stupid tropes. The premise started good until the mc met a woman named Ace who "just so happened to be a Saintess" and who "just so happened to be deeply attached to the mc the first time they met." After that, it started going downhill faster than a cheese in a cheese race. After which, she met a similar flat character named Heidi, a woman who is so dumb that she fell just by stamping her foot towards the mc, whereby the mc "coincidentally" grapples "a soft flesh." As I quote, "Then, a rush of strong flowery fragrance, which smelled like fresh flowers blooming in the spring, rushed into his nose, followed by a mass of soft flesh crashing into him. He subconsciously pulled Heidi into his arms." Mind you, he was already at a very high rank in terms of strength, but due to stupid reasons, he was unable to react appropriately. Long story short, if you like the aforementioned development, then this garbage is for you.

consistent story, the characters are kinda charming so far I guess. my only gripe is the obvious plummet in translation quality after a pretty decent first few chapters.

is there harem or not??????? 😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱🧁🧁🧁🧁🧁🧁😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱🧁😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱

Story was entertaining until the out of order chapters. I can handle rehashed plot at the beginning of chapters, I can handle pronouns being inaccurate… But those out of order chapters are unreasonable.

At first, it was pretty interesting. Afterward, it got boring. I only read around 30 chapters. Also, the translator or editor didn't bother to fix the main character's name sometimes.

Awful translation and the 9-5 thing gets annoying after a while, he's not forced to stop working after 5 but even if he's in the middle of a battle he won't even care about others or fight if it's past 5 and it's pretty ridiculous, don't bother reading it. .............................................................................................................................................

Not a bad novel … except it seems like it is Machine Translated. There are issues with characters having both pronouns, the grammar is terrible, and the flow of the writing just seems abrupt acter Ch40. The idea that you have to spend anything to read a machine translated novel seems quite fraudulent.

In the synopsis it states that the mc's name is Morn and that he has been in the Orthodox Church for 10 years, but in the webnovel it changed his name to Monn and he has only been there for 2 years. Also, the vampire race became bloodsucker race and kind of does a back and forth with that. Some names change as well. For example, Alma changed to Elma. And the different stages of cultivation / strength have some name change as well. It would be nice if there was a guide to tell you what thise stages are are and have at least a somewhat decent idea of how strong they would be with said level of strength / cultivation. A lot of these simple things get me confused when there's not enough information to back it up and names keep changing. The currency should also be explained in way so that we, as the readers, know how much an everyday item is worth as compared to salary and such since this is a different world plot. That being said, it does have a decent over-all plot to it and is enjoyable to read. It just needs some more background information and regular information to actually stick and make sense.

Review at 40 chapters in. The story itself seems to be developing well. The translation quality is where this novel suffers greatly. Different names and terms used for cultivation levels, names, places, and random tense changes often ruin the flow. Expect MLT with little to no editing.

Story is decent, not much suspense but it's good as a slice of life. The translation quality is disgusting. Although the sentences make sense, the Names, pronouns, and even chapters are mixed up. Characters have their names and pronouns mixed up several times in a couple of sentences, my brain needs to work really hard to figure out what's happening. Clearly there's no editor working on this

should have been good but the update really is frustating ... wish there were link for raws or mtl, i dont mind reading it ... ...

this is one of the better "mildly silly" novels. although nothing ground breaking here, the author keeps things fresh and fun and as of chapter 200 im still enjoying the ride. sort of a mix between silly guy that can do way more than average, gaining power/friends/influence, people being "amaze" from his powers. but MC is never 3 steps ahead, so it doesnt feel like a god in a mortal world type story. basically an extremely solid casual read with some humor mixed in.

Nice novel, although grammar needs to be work on. I couldn't understand half of the time because I didnt know if they were female or Male. The race went from fighting goblins to gnomes to goblins to dwarves then back to goblins, so it was quite hard to understand who they were fighting with.

Great overall book With interesting characters and story but is completely ruin by the terrible translation between giving characters different names randomly mid conversation using the wrong pronouns chapters out of order and completely just saying the wrong names of the enemy race like itll go from them fighting goblins to them fighting dwarfs in two Different paragraphs But they are still fighting the same eNemy its really ridiculous

Translation is completely horrendous. The names and pronouns changed randomly and became incredibly inconsistent.

Attention to anyone who doesn't read this novel yet. Don't read it for your own sake. This book translation is so bad that it jumbled the name around and error in every paragraph . Other than that Mc and story is not developed at all. It plain and nonsense From someone who read to chapter hundredish .

Great book lovely world building and characters but translation makes all of this nearly unreadable from using the wrong pronouns for characters to just blatantly changing characters names despite talking about the same person to have chapters out of order its a great read but the people responsible for this translation and stuff is pathetic

again another MC who can kill people without remorse just another 1 dimensional character and even worse he is taking care of a child just grabage

So engaging and hair raising! I lived the twist seeing how the characters reacted, It was all amazing I absolutely love this author and I think the I was in love by the 5th cheaper haha hopefully they make more books id love to read !

.....................................................................................................................................................

No matter how much I think about it and no matter how much I read, I find that the story is not worth wasting time on. The biggest reason is the hero's personality and lifestyle, not exploiting his strength and the various situations for his health.

5/10 overall Would be nice if it was only 1 main lead and not 50. Same thing applies to side characters as well Lol lol lol lol lol lol lol

Although uncreative in the department of World Background or Character Design, It seems like it will have a unique Story development, and the Translation Quality is well done. Hope this one gets translated at some point.

if i could give it 0 stars, i wouldnt hesitate. the translators killed this gem. 0 stars all for the translators and webnovel for killing this novel.

This is an interesting story. I wish I knew Chinese so I could read the raw version. The translation quality is atrocious and makes it very hard to enjoy. Character names change randomly I am still not sure what is the true name of the church or the city.
