Was interesting at first but started getting boring later on.

Spoiler

I don't like the interaction between Fina and the MC. I feel it looks and sounds s*upid and ridiculous with her s*upid queen syndrome of hers.
Also that snow something cat (the one always talking about castration) is ridiculous aswell. The castration joke got boring by the 5th time it had been said, but there it is said 700 times already.

[collapse]

Anyway, maybe I'm being biased against the novel but it's no where near the 4.0+ rating it has.

It started really good. The characters are unique on their own way. The side-chapters are wholesome. The interaction of characters with MC is a bit hilarious and the elfins are cute on there own way. Still, as you read through the chapters, you'd realize that the arcs are getting dragged, the plots are becoming more and more forced, MC is becoming a bit useless as chapters goes by, he also goes from witty to dull at times. It was still tolerable at this point, then he goes out to get... more>> a parrot. The parrot wasn't bad, yet the MC kept on being immature. It's like the author became an 8 years old, when writing the chapter. It feels like the author just gave up on his covert forced plot and jokes, that he just blatantly wrote what he wants to talk about. <<less

This novel is really good. The MC is shameless, so you can probably anticipate how he'll act when dealing with people. He runs a pet shop and slowly gathers more pets (mostly cats at this stage).

A nice bonus is the educational bits about cats and how to raise them.

I love this novel! The cast is hilarious, from the delusional "disciples" to the wise cracking parrot, I swear I was laughing if not every chapter, every other chapter. The MC is not a lotus nor is a Gary Stu but an ordinary young man, smart at what he does, who wants a stable financial life and a beautiful, wealthy girlfriend that would pamper him. No matter how much the parrot insist, this is not a BL and honestly, the lack of romance so far is no biggie. The animal... more>> fluff and the comedy more than makes up for it. It may not have the in-your-face drama and thrills like other CN but Pet King has its own charm so I totally recommend it. Just remember that all the pets that the MC captures has their own personalities and like human, their own pasts which have made them who they are. Yes, almost 400 chapters and you've yet to learn the purpose of the game, or even what it is and how it works, but so far the journey have enchanted me. This is one of those plots that must be slowly savored over time. It is not for those who wants quick resolutions in 300 chapters and an ending soon after. Fair warning, if you are not in it for the long haul, please do not complain about it. There may not be a lot of character growth as so far when it comes to the MC and the animal crew, or the plot, but IMO the story is engaging. <<less

got up to around chapter 47 and decided to drop it, I feel like its missing something and im not sure what it is. maybe its because im not a fan of cats or maybe there something of the style of reading that puts me off. the translation isn't very good for those not familiar with Chinese culture.

theres one scene where, the king cat says something in English and the MC doesn't know what is being said, but the translation doesn't tell you what is spoken in English and what isn't.

there are also parts where the MC says something in his head but what is said is surrounded by "o" instead of italics or even single quotes 'o' which can be used to show that what is being said isn't being said out-loud.

theres are also a lot of cultural references and differences that aren't really being explained by the translator, for example the fact that people will reveal your address if you aren't being good online. (Thats not normal! and is a crazy obstruction of privacy!)

the story structure itself is also very confusing, often switching to other characters' POV without warning, that we dont care about. the emotions of different characters aren't realistic in fact, none of the personalties in this story feel very real.

there are parts wheres the MC will get mad for no real reason and its super confusing. I also noticed that the story is slightly unintentionally sexist. even girl character ive seen pretty much acts like a spoiled brat except for the children. you also dont flirt with a woman by grabbing their face to look at them. thats what people do for s*aves. but I im not one for being politically correct, so thats gets a pass I guess.

[collapse]

if you can get passed all this then as the the plot itself is entertaining I guess. its wasn't really my cup of tea. I was expecting mythical creatures like with magic and stuff. but the author puts way too much time into the daily goings of the pet store. instead of dragons, unicorns, and phoenixes, you get slightly magical cats... super disappointing. you could go on adventures to keep finding cool pets and figure the mystery of this crazy phone app but nooo. he decides that the MC should be a interesting shop keeper and not once is he curious on how exactly the app even works.

what a disappointment... <<less

Supprisingly good! The story is not just about pets, but much more about mytical beast that give advantage to MC business. The other good thing is the comedy, I keep laughing at how shameless he MC is.. And lastly, it has a lot of knowledge regarding pets.

Slice of life pet store with nothing particularly special. I like the cats but MC has a creepy obnoxious personality and just feels kinda disgusting.

it’s probably supposed to be humorous when he keeps saying he is handsome but it is over exaggerated. There is also just the constant low level creepy thoughts about the women in the novel by various male characters that is just really off putting.

It started pretty well, even with the occasional forced plots and jokes, it was still tolerable. The characters where well written, especially the elfins, snowy, and some customers. Yet, after chapter 200, the characters goes ooc out of nowhere, the jokes are becoming stale, useless dialogues and scenes that exist solely for dumb jokes. Dragging the plot for 13 chapters just for these s*upid jokes. Plots that are written without thinking. Npc's everywhere. Jokes about virg*n, thrift, crossdresser, etc. For MC is written over and over again that it's moronic.... more>> MC is obsessed with woman yet not act on it. Only jokes yet no action. The MC becomes more like an npc the farther you get with the chapters. <<less

Pet king's premise at the beginning of the novel is really interesting. The MC gets a system where he gets to collect OP talking animals that help him run his pet shop business. Ultimately there's some intrigue about other people also obtaining the same system and that they have to eventually fight each other, however I stopped reading when it got pretty boring.

I think the first 200 chaps are definitely interesting and fun to read about a relatively unique cheat system and read about talking pets. The author has a... more>> distinct bias towards cats so avid dog lovers might be put off. The first few OP talking animals that the author gets are all cats. LOL.

There are female characters but absolutely zero romance. Eventually, the story just gets really boring. Certain arcs drag on for pages and pages and are absolutely boring to read. Once that sets in, its time to drop the novel.

4/5 for the unique system, talking pets, general light hearted fun novel. I recommend people give it a read for the first couple hundred chaps which are pretty entertaining. Don't hesitate to drop it if you find it boring because it doesn't get better. <<less

The story is okay. There is progression but really slow at that. The world building is really good and the character each has there own characteristics and isn't all the same with different name only. It's a slow novel and if you like those type this novel is for you but not my cup of tea.

One of the BEST Chinese novel, but not for every one.

The novel has the very ordinary MC, from start to end. He ages around 20 yo, single & not rich. Just the ordinary pet shop owner in the peaceful small city of China. Nothing spectacular. From the very beginning to the never ending chapter, which is beyond all time & space continuum, he is the same ordinary MC.

But his future daughter has the power that can destroy the universe as easily as battling her eyelids.

[collapse]
.

No cultivation, no golden finger, no magic power, no harem, no female MC. Also no enemy.

His 'extraordinary' occurs only once, in the 1st chapter. He downloads the random app and get the beyond-any-expectation pet that can die uncountable times. After that, he the snow ball rolls, slowly and lovely.

Problem of this novel that willmdrive away most readers is that it's so full of hard Science, Philosophy and Psychology. Although well hidden among idiot jokes, but they are there. If the reader lacks such knowledges, this novel is next to the classic thick reference textbook. For example, the arc of Pi, 3.1416. Most readers fail here.

But if the reader has them, you may read this novel twice, or more, like me.

Well, all the texts above are not review, but my feeling to this excellent novel. I only copy them of the Book of Pi. <<less

First chapters of this novel are really fun and touching.

Pity, the story quickly becomes boringly slow. Also, the later pets are rather annoying and somehow seem not useful or interesting enough to read about.

P.S. Crude jokes are really crude here. That was the last straw for me.

I love this novel!! The intricate details of the animals are touching and exciting. It's hilarious although it may be a little dull at times but if you skim over it you'll love this book. The pets each have their own personalities and skills and I just love them! You're always curious about new pets and what their skills and backgrounds are. Haha some parts of it are surprisingly informational about the pets and how it's related to theories in real life. I haven't continued this book in around half... more>> a year but I'm going back to this now that I see this page again.

I recommend animal lovers and mobile app/fantasy lovers to read this. <<less

One of my favorite novels. It's light-heart but warm story. It's related to everyone's everyday life. MC has a small pet shop. He tries to make a living from his business with principles intact. Each arc of his pets is very interesting, touching and well written. It may be on slow side but it has merits why it needs slower pace than other normal Chinese Wuxia. The side plots of his friends/customers are also good. I believe it shows part of modern life style in China which by itself is... more>> very interesting. The author has done a lot of research and transforms the info to very interesting stories.

If you feel tired from normal Wuxia or want to change to something interesting read, this is THE ONE. Pet King is most underrated novel I've read so far. I still don't really like pets to be honest but couldn't put Pet King down. <<less
