Hiya, first person to comment. Just over all a fun read. Its been done before, but this is a new opportunity! Ima give you some tips. Ive been reading Isekai for like 14 years now. Been reading and loving it for a long time. I know what works and what doesn't work for nonhuman MCs. Dont make the MC a nonhuman nonhuman, when authors make the MC to different from the way they where as a human they forget the whole reason people love nonhuman MC, the "what if" factor. Keep the MC nice to humans and intelligent creatures. People will always tell you MC is to nice for monster or that its "unrealistic" and I say BULLSHET. If the MC is to cruel or inhuman it makes it impossible to world biuld becuase either the MC only sees the worst of the world or only sees it before what ever is introduced is killed or a hated threat--BORING. Literally I cant think of a single well known and long lasting nonhuman MC that is still around because people actually care about the story. Power kreep can be difficult to manage, just keep the MC smart and strong, make the story about where and what or who is going on. Since the MC is a worm this is easy, he can be underground eating dirt and growing while he explores and admires the world they are in, the MC is our view into the world plays a role in how we see the characters. As a worm he could feed nations and help people via fertilization, he could even be a devastating force of power thru evolution. Keep the MC loose and smart, but not uncaring or aloof. By being loose and smart is keeps the story open and intriguing. If you get him a pet or some loli or focus to much on some kind of struggle or fear-- it becomes difficult to manage where you want the MC to go and show us the world/progress the story(as well as stale). As a nonhuman MC its important you dont change the MCs character to much, simplicity of character can provide an active outlet for humor and balance to provide us readers a sense of familiarity. Like "wow I love how even as a 1000 meter long worm he is so relatable". Not to say he cant be different, just that we want to see him come to terms with himself and come to appreciate his new form. Keep the story light and at heart truly non committed- swearing vengeance or some other spiteful direction is boring and overdone by a ton of terrible novels-it gets peoples attention for a bit then they forget about this book and move on to another story to get there dark and violent fix. Your going to want to keep it light because action or conflict is best done in moderation. Keep the MC a WORM. Nothing is worse for a nonhuman MC to only be the thing we want for 20 chapters! I want to see a fantasy world from an agreeable persons perspective. Dont write the story to make me hate the MC, or hate humans, or hate anything. The mc doesn't have to get involved in every situation either, dont make him needlessly cruel. As a worm you can do so much this this story. Most of the time I never find a story early enough to give it my hot take lol. Dont be afraid to let the MC do monotonous stuff, helps you! gives you time to envision where or how you see the MC next! talk about what its like to love dirt, or how to see, or how to go about the world. If you want and action story Do It. If you just wanted to build a story with an Isekai nonhuman mc Do It. Look up the best nonhuman story I have ever seen , chrysalis or something. Its nonhuman Ant . Named ANThony- the ants all have ANT sneaked in and I love it. Itll take time, but find ways to Wiggle some wormness and love into the story and I promise you this wont be a novel to be forget. But one to be Loved! You can do it!

This review is best read in full. The best novel I have found on this website. The best non-human protagonist I have ever seen in both korean and japanese manga-light novels even! I dont like depressing narratives. Or harems. I dont like antiheroes mcs. I dont like a lot of things that are prevalent in the isekia community. But I love Isekia. I love fantasy. I love how the author includes little tid bits of info about the world--my favorite are peoples accounts of there experiences with the colony. I love how they are ants .never thought would say it but its true. The impartiality and absolute commitment to everything they do is inspiring. I love reading about how they progress. I want to know, and watch how other cultures and people will interact with the ants. Nothing surprises them, you cant bribe them, you cant threaten an individual ant. I love how they go about there business and work. I love how they bring the best out of humans and other species. How they take what you give them and do it more effectively and efficiently. I dont like the Sarah character, as shes rage monster. and no one should hurt the queen . I love how the Queens are so motherly .I love how they are motherly to even other species .Taking humans in and learning from them, enjoying the company of other ruling humans .I just imagine humans loving ants, and little children's playing and swinging on the long legs of the large guard ants. Its so cool watching the colony growing into a true culture of formidable power. I dont want them to be wiped out for some cliched betrayal or some cheap revenge plot or cheap we hate ants cus your monsters. I want thier enemy's to send scouts .To see the lands they inhabit .To see how people love to visit the ants, and the ants not caring, must work! reading this story...It should never end. Truly a masterpiece, will and should make the author millions--if they play there cards right. I suggest you read this story, I just wish there were 4000 ch when I found it, not 800. I love every chapter of it . Just make sure the mc doesnt become a monster at heart. They arent monsters. They are Ant people.
