Grammar: 2.5/5 (formerly 3.5/5)

Story: 3.5/5 (same)

Writing: 2/5 (formerly 3.5/5)

... more>> (Updated ch44:

Yeah, it devolved quickly into a very confused piece of work. Author very clumsily swaps between perspectives and people. There is no indication as to when the changes happen so it can get a bit frustrating jumping around with no one view point really completed. The translation team seems to be having a hard time making this readable at this point, and honestly I can't blame them, it's the authors fault for using really unstable view points. I was Enjoying it immensely until about chapter 40, then things just started getting messy. I don't mind when things stagnate in a story, I just push through, but when things get messy I just give up. I'm hear to enjoy a story not a puzzle.)

Far from the worst thing I've read, but far from the best. The grammar is tolerable, though awkward phrasing and wording is almost guaranteed to be found in each chapter. Not really a problem with the author, but a blip from the translation team. Still, a decent job and nothing the really detracts from the reading experience except for the momentary pause wondering what would be a better way to phrase or word something.

As far as the story goes, it's nice, but not anything new or ground breaking thus far. Can't really say anything else on this, seriously.

The writing is fairly well done, nothing is dragged through the mud with too much detail, nor is it really explained enough. The descriptive scenes could use some more flavor, but it's understandably difficult to do that with a translated work. Over all I'd rate this at a 3.5/5, with some hope for the future. Once I've read the entire thing I'll probably come back to finish this review. <<less

This is a fairly good novel. There are no cliches so far so it is an fairly interesting read, I personally dislike the normal beta japanese MC thats all on the rage. The main character gathers a harem of yanderes of all flavors, which is probably the most interesting part about this novel. The main character's powers as a dark magician warrior is fairly interesting as well. However this novel suffers from some set backs which would probably be fixed by an editor if it ever became a light novel.... more>> This novel has dry periods where the plot crawls as slow as a snail, also the author likes to have multiple chapters dedicated to side characters which are probably the most boring portions of the novel. I feel like the author has no idea to write at times so he just writes himself into a circle.

I would rate this series 4/5. Its interesting enough to read whenever its update however I would never constantly refresh the page and stay up for hours to wait for a chapter. <<less

Well, I have read many of the negative comments on the page and I can resume their feeling in being that "They don't have patience" and "They are too used to how Light Novels are".

With that outside, let's give the most objective opinion I can give.

Kuro No Maou is a pretty good novel with interesting development, multiple different and complex characters, and a great variety of abilities and powers.

It's a more darker and tragic isekai than your average, with characters dying and being seriously harmed from right to left, so... more>> a reader must be prepared to find out a favorite character can be suddenly killed a few chapters after its introduction.

The romance takes a pretty important role in the development of the story and multiple characters, being most of the time the conductor between the characters and their decisions, especially in later chapters.

The story also has a variety of ideologies which makes it quite common for characters to change their stances from one point to another, making friends enemies and enemies into friends.

It Mixes everyday life events, adventuring, Monster hunting, War, politics, and many others.

The world-building is an important element too in the whole novel, with multiple chapters dedicated to the explanation of different topics not directly related to the events on the story: These can be chapters describing historical facts, side characters personal stories and monologues, world elements like magic, construction, technologies, religion, etc.

The Protagonist and its companions begin being quite weak, here there is no cheat MC, and the power level of them grows slowly since there are no shortcuts nor convenient power-ups. The Strenght of the characters is grown with hard training, multiple efforts, and obtaining powerful equipment. So its best you don't go expecting a overpowered main character who defeats everyone in his way, you will get to see far too many looses before a win. And its quite normal since he confronts the strongest enemies from the very begging in the story.

This gives the novel a really slow pace in the developments of the principal events which makes it a long experience.

Kuro no Maou is a great story with a big universe and story elements. So it's recommended to tackle it with patience, hard will, and time.

I don't recommend this story for those who are too biased on the model of the Light Novels (They are shorter stories with a more direct and fast development), those sensible with harsh story elements (multiple deaths, r*pe, torture, etc.), and those who are only interested in the MC perspective (KnM introduce and develops multiple characters to a deep level, making it quite normal for multiple chapters dedicated to their stories and their perspectives). <<less

I understand the author's intention of making things real here for the MC and make him work his ass in order to not fail again. But repetition of the losses and the consistent sidetracking takes away the interest of reading his work. First of all, no one likes a loser for a protagonist. Just look at the Manga Major for example. It was pathetic. He wins the small battles but he always lost on the battles that matters and this novel is the same as that. Second, why change the... more>> POV to the people considered as the total a**holes of this novel. It just don't make sense that the author wants us to connect with them. That's just bullcrap! <<less

At the beginning of the story it is quite cruel because of the human experimentation and the escape of Kurono to another continent.

Leaving the holy war throughout the continent, and permanent rancor for the crusaders.

Kurono's natural ability is black magic, that is the basis of all his power and growth in power.

... more>> However, what most attracts my attention is that Kurono has the super ability to TRANSFORM girls to yanderes. (Unconsciously with his acts).

First with the fairy, then with the witch, and then with an angel. (Willing to perform an inhuman act for love xD)

If it's worth reading, I recommend it. <<less

This story is worth checking out. The main draw of the story are it's characters and world building, with tragedy on the side. Most of the characters are interesting and their interactions even more so. Torture disguised as experimentation and Yanderes are basically a cheat for making an interesting setting. The writing is quite good in terms of the Yanderes and despair, but is a bit lacking in other areas. This leaves long stretches of relatively generic isekai fantasy. I suggest you try it out and see if you find... more>> it interesting.

I suggest you read from one tragedy point to the next in continuous blocks, because the long stretches of mediocre parts pass quickly when you read them in bulk and allow you to get at the nice, juicy despair. <<less

A refreshingly harsh variation of the standard 'summoned to another world' formula.

Kuro No Maou features a fairly standard japanese light novel Protagonist, Kurono Mao who gets summoned to a different world in the middle of being confessed to. What he sees when he wakes up however, is not a mission to save the world from disaster, a Goddess with cheat abilities for sale or a benevolent kingdom, but a kind of cruelty unique to humanity... The story follows Kurono as he tries to deal with that cruelty in an attempt... more>> to live comfortably.

As a result, this story has a more or less 6:4 split between slice-of-life-ish arcs and more threatening war and survival-related arcs.

Without spoiling anything, outside of the characters directly surrounding Kurono, the world makes a surprising amount of sense for a japanese LN/WN. Be it the glimpses we get from country politics, religious actions and especially personal motivations and actions of the side characters, everyone is simply following their own world-view without too much needless ill-intent or good-natured support...

The only sort-of exception to this is that Kurono seems to have a Yandere-attracting or creating aura to the point that even his equipment is yandere, and that when a girl falls for him their dedication to him immediately maxes out.

On the negative side of the WN, the actual writing and story flow is less than great; There is a lot of needless switching of perspective even in the middle of chapters, and there are quite a few strangely placed or even unneccessary chapters that tell the story of side characters. Sometimes it's used well - To explain the disposition and actions of the enemy commander for example... But most of the time these chapters just seem to be thrown in randomly and break up the flow of the main story...

It also doesn't help that the story flow itself is on the slow side.

All in all though, this is still a head above the general 'Isekai' harem stories simply by virtue of allowing for a world where the line between good and evil really should just be considered a question of perspective. <<less

Good for its genre and the yandere harem is very welcome. Overall its good but I'll list the issues, because if you can get over these few issues than the novel will be great for you, some of the issues may even be a plus for you depending on your tastes.

in relation to Tragedy:

Spoiler

Fake Tragedy, Main chars are generally immune and its just death all around him, in fact the mains have a good helping of Deus ex.

to MC:

MC is both underpowered and overpowered. His true enemies are so far above him its one of those, I won't even kill you scenarios, but he's overpowered when compared everyone else.

[collapse]

Also unfortunately classic Jap MC, though he is okay with killing for the most part.

Completely agree with Ren Chao. This novel is s*upidly long. It takes, for Kurono, on average, 30 chapters to finally defeat something. The drawn out sequences in non-combat situations also gets tiring. First it's cool to have a detailed explanation or long thought-chain, because there is a lot to explain in the beginning, however it doesn't stop. For example, Kurono and another Character exchange 4 sentences, yep that's 2 literal chapters of thoughts, overanalyzation and too much internal dialogue for you. It's like the author is Sisyphus, trolling the viewer.... more>> He rolls the boulder up the hill, at the halfway point looks down, smiles at you and lets the boulder roll back down. I love the story, I really do, but when I can already tell by the first 5 sentences of a chapter that I can skip it, then skip five chapters ahead to find nothing really happened, it feels underwhelming. Not to mention that we're on c545tl and kurono still can't beat a rank 5 monster without literal divine intervention and his companions. I want his training to finally mean something, like actually for him to start to rival apostles. Every battle feels earned, but also feels underwhelming, because at the end of the day he always gets either saved or carried by some other party. I want him to finally do something, for those trials to finally pay off. I'm not saying that he should become Isekai protag #628940 and just go *bing bong monster dead*, but it's so frustrating not seeing any improvement on his part. His weapons keep evolving, but he just doesn't, every fight is still the same drawn out struggle where in the end he gets his saved by some divine intervention amount of luck or some other party, as if he was still stuck in c120. The only fight that made me say 'finally' was with Ludra. Still though, after that, we were back to the same formula. The only major event in the entirety of the novel since the escape is the fight with the 7th and it's aftermath. We are literally done with 1/12th of Kurono's mission. After 545 chapters. Either this gets canned (I hope not, I really do love this novel) or it'll be finished after another 10 or so years. Overall though, I really like this novel. I want more of this story, I just wish it would move faster than it does currently. <<less

This was my 2 week marathon of reading the novel from the part where manga left of.

I thoroughly enjoyed it. Some may say that there is too much "water", but I didn't find it annoying since I also have decent enough imagination to submerge myself into such details.

But there is one big problem I cannot overlook. This novel started in 2011, but not even a year has passed since Kurono ended up in Pandora. 13 years for less than a year of activity in the world! I don't know how... more>> this uncomfortable for me phenomenon is called, so the closest term I would go is "Blueballing".

I don't deny that there are many novels that become abandoned for various reasons, but this one is still breathing, somehow. That's impressive.

But still. Considering the pace that this story is going at, it becomes one of those novels that make you become afraid that you will die from old age before the novel comes to a proper end.

So I’ve been reading this LN for almost 5 years now. The release schedule for chapters and is sporadic to say the least, but I’m not going to focus on that. The overall story is slow. Painfully so at times, and a real chore in the beginning. The MC isn’t overpowering, but adequately strong enough to call him a protagonist. The story likes to kill characters off just to prove a point that it’s dark and less for plot. The biggest reason why I still read this LN is because... more>> I like that the MC still tries to do the right thing and even in the most traumatic situations, and it’s a nice twist to see that even when he loses consistently. It’s not always entertaining for me to see the MC muscle his way through situations (though he does do this a few times) just to show off how powerful he is. I like that he struggles, loses, but gets better. It’s how often he picks himself up from failure that really makes me read on to see how he develops to the end. There is no real romance if you are looking for that. Overall I recommend this story if you like world building and can deal with a slow but developing MC that tries to do what he thinks is right in the some awful situations. <<less

This is actually one of the better "isekais" out there:

1- MC is not OP nor is given "cheat-like" powers or blessings. While he's not weak by any means, his opponents are literally god-slaying capable beings, so it takes actual work for him to be up to par.

2- People die if they are killed.

3- Yandere's everywhere.

4- Crapstatic world with proper world-building

Im sorry but I tried my best to like this LN but well, it was really really bad. The plot was so s*upid that it makes me want to barf. It started off fine since it was a back story for potential growth of the MC but as the story advanced in the next chapters, it was like the story itself was degrading the value of the MC.

The constant POV changes was so annoying since it was only a reminder of how much of a loser the MC is without... more>> growth and how incredibly powerful the enemy is. The somewhat romantic additive was creative but it gained too many plot holes. Too terrible progress and too confusing goal of the story.

I tried my best to move further but with the MC showing no progress and constantly losing, I got fed up and stopped reading. I mean whats the point of even reading a story with the MC having no growth in any way. I understand if that was the case if it was still from chapters 1 to 20 or even 30 but 70 onwards? Come on!

For fans of dark OP MC DO NOT READ THIS NOVEL <<less

I like the brutality, I like the magic, and I like the world building. It's a pretty awesome story

Stranger: I'm sensing a "but" coming.

And you are correct random stranger! What I hate is how the MC is treated. He's a nice guy, use to people being scared of him, just wants to be a hero an help people, yet despite his good intentions EVERYWHERE he goes people treat him f*cking terribly. If they don't come to some s*upid misunderstanding they treat him like dirt cause of his appearance and the... more>> rare time someone is nice to him they get slaughtered. Brutality. Or mentally tortured! It's like the author goes the extra f*cking mile to make Kurono's be utter shit. Kurono has been tortured in everyway imaginable yet still remains a great guy, but people can't see that and end up treating smug entitled douchebags better than him, like a certain group of adventurers called..I cant remember, I call their party chicken wing squad because I hate them so much I don't wanna remember their group name. Speaking of they are BY FAR the characters I hate the most in the story, next to the people who tortured Kurono first. They appear later in the story and do nothing but make dumb misunderstanding after misunderstanding and insult Kurono whenever they talk about him, despite them knowing NOTHING about him. Seeiously, they don't. They know nothing of his goals, background, anything, and they don't even try asking him because they're so f*cking conceited they think they're right. That, or they know they are wrong and refuse to speak to Kurono about anything because they refuse to admit they are being s*upid! I HATE THEM WITH EVERYTHING I HAVE! You know that a**hole, that group, in every story like this that serve no purpose other than pissing the reader off, and no matter how many times you beg the author to give them a brutal, slow death they still breathe? That's what they are. Like the "Cool Kids" in Arifureta or the classmates of Touka from Abnormal State or the Hero Party from Ankoku Kishi Monogatari. F*ck. THEM. In short, I love this story, but it makes me hate it. Until chicken wing squad dies horribly I'll probably always hate this, they're that insufferable. <<less

You see not everyone has a complete luck like that guy in SMARTPHONE NO TOMONI... even in the RISING OF THE SHIELD HERO has a HARSH experience. jeez

Kuro No Maou gives you the same feeling as the RISING OF THE SHIELD HERO but the HAREM here was exceptional. you see, the 2 girls i've seen so far was FIONA (Although I do not know if she have a feelings for the MC but I hope it is) and Lily (at first you thought you want to protect this little cute loli but it is not. She have a twisted personality when she regained her consciousness or should I say the older Lily.) but this is a good Light Novel so far. Just that this LN has a gruesome environment so if you want a unique LN with twisted and gruesome environment then this one's for you.

Kuro no Maou is a great story, that isn't predictable and is undoubtedly a step up from other harem isekai's.

It is a harem, however things are very different. Everyone is the harem is.. Either yandere or guudere, I'm not familiar with the terms, but basically the romance is no joke. You actually really grow to like the MC, for his reasons and beliefs and struggles, and although he has his faults, he's not dense in the same way as other harem MCs, and his awkwardness is more than understandable.

The characters... more>> are 11/10. They are that good, I have never read a story with such well written characters, in some ways the darker elements of the story are necessary for this, but everything apart from that is done almost to perfection. If you like the idea of a darker, gruesome, nitty-gritty realistic take on the isekai genre with characters that have as much depth as actual people, then you should enjoy this.

In my opinion it's a 9/10, but with my current enjoyment of novels involving MCs that experience suffering, but continue on to eventually surpass it, it's 10/10. Do have some patience though.

If you have read certain spoilers that are affecting your decision on whether you will enjoy the rest of this novel, as it did for me (thanks PercherTM u bastard I had read animesuki to get over that) - for BL:

Spoiler

To those of you worried about the BL, yes there are a few scenes, however the only one that's actually descriptive has an author warning and can be skipped. There are also some complaints below about Kurono and the crusaders, and his relation to them in another spoiler, however that is a misunderstanding, I'll post a second spoiler below to be more explicit about that.

Warning 500 chapters in spoilers, do not read unless you have already read spoilers concerning Sariel in the crusade against Spada:

Sariel is indeed Shirayuki, however Kurono doesn't betray Spada, he simply can't bring himself to kill her.

A good read, however, the pacing is a bit slow compared to other light novels and might put off those who aren't avid readers. The MC gets optimistic by nature but will get beat down by harsh reality over and over. Getting over that and trying to live a somewhat normal life is part of the story and if you don't like "beta" characters, you might not like this story.

Pro

-Many characters with their own personality

-Doesn't break own world's law (e.g. If a story say it's impossible to resurrect someone then... more>> it's impossible)

-Realistic and bleak

-Fleshed out world

Con

-The pacing in the story is very chaotic, the atmosphere also changes quickly

-Lack of character development in the personality sector

-Other than that one certain village, MC rarely has contact with surroundings <<less

1- In general / Plot

Well, first things off. The novel is entertaining, the characters are (usually) not flat, and the plot is just complex enough for you to have a sense of tension without getting tiring nor being too predictable (although some twists have slightly too much foreshadowing on my opinion). The lore of the world is interesting and it feels nice to read about the world.

2- Chapters

As some reviews have said, there are a few villain POV chapters that do not really add anything, and sometimes the plot... more>> feels too slow. The thing is that these only happen in the first few volumes (up to volume 5 or 6). For me it is clear that the author got (really) better as the chapters go on, and at this point, these early ""failures"" do not really matter as there are (at the moment of this review) 17 complete volumes.

Do note that there are some quite heavy moments (gore and r*pe), but they do not feel out of place and, although not always well handled, the treatment is usually mature. So these scenes seem more integrated into the plot, and not just some fan (dis) service.

3- Characters

They are enjoyable in a very "game of thrones"-ish way. Side characters (except minor villains) are well developed. The indecisiveness of the protagonist is (mostly) good for character development, and doesn't feel as being simply lack of planing from the author. One thing that kinda gets tiring is that, regarding the heroines, they all get increasingly predictable, not more than in any other harem genre work, but regardless....

Oh, lastly: there are many yanderes. It seems every other woman is one. Regardless of that, they are well written enough (if you discount the fact that most of them have to, in one way or another, fall for the MC).

4- Others

The translation is not great. Although I do not feel well criticizing voluntary work, there are some big English mistakes and awkward wording in every other chapter, and there are far too many translator notes. Regardless of that, these annoyances do not affect the general enjoyment of the novel.

On a personal note, what I think is the lowest point of the novel as a whole is how easily (sometimes) girls fall in love with the MC, and - up to a point -
Spoiler

how predictable it is that some of them will become yanderes, regardless of previous character development. It kinda makes the whole "psycho allure" of the yandere feel lost, as it is overused and the characters circumstances underdeveloped.

EDIT: Consider yourself warned, there's a major YAOI tentacle r*pe trap scene and the MC makes out with his cumstained lips. I've dropped the novel.

Take Game of Thrones, mix it with yanderes, Legendary Moonlight Sculptor, and r/atheism.

You'll end up with this.

So why did I pick those? First Game of Thrones: there's some noble status in*estuous themes in some situations, but even more than that, there's characters who just die off. The main character builds a relationship with them only for them to

die 50-100 chapters later.

[collapse]

I even faintly recall reading "Winter is coming." at one point.

I'm surprised there is such a thing as a yandere harem. The main character gets one, but is denser the the particle that led to the big bang, and foolishly doesn't pick up on the queues that his companions are psychos. This I found pretty interesting. I think yanderes are a bit more creepier than they are hot, but they are much more interesting than a simple romance.

In Legendary Moonlight sculptor a great tragedy is inflicted upon the main character. You might think "that's where the similarities end right?" No, they don't. There's one MAJOR point I want to make about the author's writing styles: they both focus FAR too much on insignificant, minor characters. There's a filler chapter about too many characters backgrounds. I've come to dread seeing a new character because apparently I need to know everyone's backstory before I can move on. Characters we don't know or care about. I'm currently on ch 307 of this work, and in the past 100 chapters I'd say about 50 of them feature the main character. The rest are filler chapters about other characters or things the other members of the cast are doing. This is basically just an estimate, I haven't reread the whole thing back to that point, but I doubt it's wrong. The current pace of the current translator is about 1-3 chapters a week and it's honestly disappointing checking in and noticing "oh you mean the author wants to retell us the same part of this story from another characters perspective? Woohoo..."

Why is r/atheism on this list? If you've ever talked to a religious zealot, they'll condemn atheism as evil. Similarly, if you've ever talked to a militant atheist obsessed with anti-religious rhetoric, you can expect them to cry about crusades, the evils inflicted using religion as a symbol of fear and greed, etc. That's basically here. It's an r/athiesm perv fantasia in which the religion of the cross goes from our world to take over another world and to do so will purge all non-humans and all their alternate religions mercilessly.

Spoiler

The crusaders come to the small village where the main character lived, and said "What are you doing? Quickly offer all the things of value, then bring us the humans living with you [non-humans] demons. They get to live as s*aves." They quickly kill the surrendering humans and 'demons' without mercy, causing the remaining to fight in fury, but lose miserably. It's also apparent that they torture innocents mercilessly to break them down into emotionless s*aves to God.

Another note: One major thing I don't like about harems is why they decide randomly to have boys who look like girls be in the harem.

Spoiler

It's clear the main character has been written out to be bis**ual, he doesn't care "as long as its cute."

I'm not sure why the author, as well as most well known harem titles cave into this trope. Are they trying to attract wild fujoshi? From what I've known they usually don't read these kinds of LN, so idk why.

The next spoiler is a big, big, spoiler. It's about a chapter that hasn't been even close to TLd yet. But it does help explain the mc's personality and what he is and isn't willing to do.

Spoiler

Apparently around chapter 500, he literally r*pes Sariel.
