Personally, I thought that it's just another cliche shounen story after reading the synopsis and compared it with Battle Through the Heavens. Though, it's no harem and the romantic subplot is pretty good. However, there might be something special on its story that it actually caught my attention. Thus, I started reading the novel, I won't be able to give any opinion yet as I'm still in the early chapters of the story. Nonetheless, I could say that the story is pretty interesting and surprisingly entertaining.
Stellar Transformations Promotional Video
To be honest, I am quite unfamiliar with the novel until I stumbled upon on the promotional video for Stellar Transformations uploaded by the popular Chinese anime translator group "HaxTalks". The animation sequence really looks dope especially the fight scenes. Though, I believe we need some more scenes in order to comment on its quality but the first thing that comes into my head when I saw the video is Soul Land anime adaptation.
According to HaxTalks, Stellar Transformations anime adaptation shall premiered last September. However, it has been confirmed to premiered on December 2018.
