SVSSS is MXTX's hilarious debut novel that makes fun of stallion novel tropes and delivers a Very Shippable Ship.
The main character is fully convinced he's a heterosexual man, is a reddit bro and an avid reader of trashy web novels that reads them For The Plot Duh. He transmigrates into the latest stallion novel he'd been bashing into the character of a villain who gets to die a Very Horrible Death in canon. Well obviously he wants to save his own life so he starts treating the protag well and then proceeds to have a 50 chapter long denial about having become the love interest of the novel. The protagonist is a little walking dsm-5 checklist who has huge trust issues and imprints on his shizun like a baby duckling. His main superpowers include not being able to die and crying to get what he wants. You get to watch these two roll around to their happy ending (with the Most Awful sex scene as their first time, I truly underestimated how bad it would be).
And of course there's many viable side ships for those who are picky. First of all reincarnated Shen Qingqiu has a harem of stern shidi and shixiong who Really want to take care of him and is Very Oblivious about it even after the thunderous realization that the protagonist is gay for him. For those of us who are of the lesbian persuasion there is great potential between a demoness who really likes to bully her love interest and The Most Beautiful Woman in the whole universe who happens to be a huge shipper and writes fanfic about the main couple on the side. And lest we forget the MVP of side couples we have the awkward and willing-to-do-anything-to-stay-alive transmigrated author of the novel servant and his demon ice king who flirts in the most awkward demon way possible which comes off as homicidal intent.
Good, funny, great to relax with. Can't wait for the rest of the official ENG translation.
