When Did I Become Unbeatable? - Recommendations

OudeRodeOgen says...

Both mc from each story is a simpleton, getting misunderstood and making misunderstanding, both of them are op as well, the only difference is that whenever the cultivators from Am I Invincible manhua saw the mc they will kowtow immediately but in Above Ten Thousand People the mc gets underestimated when they first see the mc.

Both MC lacks common senseBoth think they are weak because the system told them soBoth are weak and overpowered at the same timeBoth get heavily misunderstoodPretty much the same thing honestly

both cause misunderstanding and have op mc that causes the main plot revolves with comedy

The plot is similar, the MC is similar. Both MCs are clueless OP who think themselves as weaklings with no cultivation whatsoever, while it is the contrary: they are very OP, have many precious god-like artifacts, have many strong followers (many followers the MCs unaware that they are very strong). Both MCs also have extremely good luck where events always turn out into their benefit (the misunderstandings), even without the MCs realizing it, which makes the story hilarious and fun to read.

I feel like both stories take advantage of Chinese and Korean culture where the people often communicate indirectly, where they make assumptions, always try to guess what other people are implying. In the stories, their assumptions are wrong. Thus, making the stories hilarious. I've read "Am I Invincible/When Did I Become Unbeatable" until chapter 50, and "Above Ten Thousand People" aka. "Above Myriads" chapter 95.

They are almost the exact same plot. Someone from another world that has a system (although the system disappears in Cultivation Bigshot) that makes everyone else think that they are gods among gods despite them being mortals. They are the very definition of Overpowered MC

Almost the exact same manga. There are a couple of differences - such as the existence of backstory behind the protagonist, the existence of a quest and upgrade system, and a wife the protag has forgotten about in when did i become unbeatable.

Apart from that both are stories about cluesless protagonists who have been reborn or transfered into a world of cultivation but think that they themselves are unable to cultivate while everyone around them sees them as peerless experts of cultivation who have already surpassed immortality and have become something greater.

Both are highly funny comedic mangas but i found that big shot has better pacing and is less random in terms of progression. Apart from that they are similar not only in setting but even a lot of characters and events are similar from one story to another.

The premise of both stories is pretty much identical.

A person who is a mortal is mistaken by everyone to be an extremely powerful "senior" who wants to pretend to be mortal

Very similar concept of the protag being reincarnated/transmigrated into a fantasy world - although one is more magic based while the other is more on the cultivation and martial arts side. In both series all the world natives sense something incredible, unfathomable, and ridiculously strong from the protagonists and gain tremendously from interacting with him - even though the protagonist himself thinks he's a regular human and doesn't intend to help as much as he does. The "clueless op protagonist helps his friends and changes the world as he does" is a good comedic trope present in both stories.

The main difference apart from the worlds is the existence of a romantic partner in when did i become unbeatable, as well as a quest system, and the fact that there's an actual backstory present in when did I become invincible. However having this additions doesn't necessarily make it better - I personally enjoyed the devil's lackey more, but both are good and funny.

Both MC don't understand their power and influencer over the world. 

Overlord is a bit darker and character driven 

Am I Invincible is more comedy driven with a Leveling system.

Both are transmigration/reincarnation stories set in a martial arts/cultivation world. There are many differences between them in terms of pacing, plot, romance, power system, ect. but there are a couple of similarities.

Both stories have a "main" romance partner/wife character

Both stories have a quest and upgrade system which means both protagonists increase cultivation using the system and not through traditional methods

And both stories have the system provide quests which cause the protagonist to teleport to a different place and undertake small story arcs

These are both good but evil emperor is much better and a much more coherrent story in my opinion. Although if all you want to do is laugh, when did i become unbeatable may be better in terms of the consistency of funny moments.
