Ugh. Couldn't make it past 10 chapters. It's basically just a straight post of a MTL, and the grammar is exactly what you'd expect. The poster (NOT translator) basically just says 'deal with it' in the comments when people complain, which they do with almost every chapter. It does not get better.

Storywise, the MC is a dick, and the dynamic of the MC's friendships makes no sense either by western or japanese standards. So the interactions of the characters are silly, stilted, and so brainlessly derpish that the... more>> reader can't possibly feel anything for them.

This is bad MTL of a poor story written on a cliched outline. <<less

UPDATE: ~20 Chapters Later (Ch.32)

The story is still chugging along somewhat leisurely, our MC is growing his harem bit by bit (and actually being physically intimate with them), and setting up a base of operations, but translations remain MTL-stiff and in need of an editor.

One main thing to note is that there hasn't been much of a peep from the PoV of his friends up to this point, and that once again, if you're coming in from the Manga, this is the WN version that has a notable difference... more>> in initial development.

I'm tempted to downgrade it to 3-Stars, given how slow the build-up remains to be, but that's probably my bias from being spoiled a bit by the manga version giving a bit more even viewpoints between his side and his friends' sides. For now, I'll keep it at 4-Stars. Will update once again after another 10 or so chapters.

---------

I like the story, but it feels a bit stiff and stilted at times. I'm not sure if it's due to the translator or an extremely rough origin source. That said, it's quite readable. It could use an editor to help smooth the flow.

One thing to note, for those coming in to read it after reading the manga, is that this is the WN original. Quite a number of story elements have been changed almost from the start, and I suspect that the manga differences were based on whatever changes were made between WN to LN.

With that said, the reason I am giving it a solid 4 for now is that it's a bit different from the usual Isekai story. The MC isn't some pathetic pushover with the density of a neutron star, has some actual balls in taking the initiative in intimacy and action, and most importantly, his fellow summoned buddies don't hate his guts or try to push him away when it turns out they have some special abilities and he didn't (yet). At the same time, he isn't blatantly trying to force a change due to his OP'ness, nor is he trying to force typical Japanese ideals on the world. He's adapting to the world and taking the differences in culture in stride.

Those things alone already put it well ahead of many other typical Isekai novels, where it takes an act of God for the MC to notice the feelings of those around him, much less act on them, or where the MC is instantly booted from the party after being transferred due to having no skills, or where the OP MC just forces changes or spouts their "this world is EVUL! MUST change the system nao! Down with s*avery! Down with Nobility!" spiel.

Whether it becomes 5 stars or 3 depends on the plot and how it progresses. At the time of this review (Ch.11), the MC and his girls have only started their adventure. I will add to, or change, my review after giving it another 20 chapters, since they're all pretty short. <<less

This is... Not that good.

The MC and his pals get summoned to a fantasy world as heroes, but the MC is just a bystander caught up in the summoning, fairly basic plot. The MC himself holds a pretty severe personality that values feeling 'indebted' to people in really high value which is a tad irritating but it's interesting nonetheless. Then the MC gets immediately hit by the random teleportation item that someone was trying to use to assassinate the heroes.

Now, at this point you would think that the story would... more>> be something along the lines of 'the MC traverses dangerous wilderness's to return to his comrades to make sure they repay him! On the way he buys s*aves since he doesn't want to die' wouldn't you? NOPE. The guy gets teleported to what we can only assume is god's personal laptop and clicks a link that makes him completely f*cking invincible. Each person in his harem falls in love with and has s*x with him immediately, there's no emotional payoff whatsoever. I guess it's better than having a beta MC who can't even think of sleeping with a woman but I'd like some emotional investment please.

And speaking of emotions, lets talk about the heroes. They all have a breakdown when they think the MC died. Which is nice, a lot better than them being all 'hehe useless boy died POOOOOOG'. But it just feels... Cheap. We have not had enough time with these characters to feel anything when they cry over the dudes death, especially when we know he's currently an OP god and plowing the hot s*ave he bought. In general the plot moves way too fast to build up any personality or attachment to any of the characters, 'oh this hero girl (not the ones summoned with the MC, they were summoned by a different country. Because it's much better to add a whole new set of characters instead of improving the ones you already have) had a crush on the MC and now she's crying because she learned he died' and it's like I want to sympathise with you but this story makes it physically impossible for me to care!

On top of that, the MC's thought process is incomprehensible. The dude visits the kingdom that summoned him, acts like he's a demon, doesn't tell people he's okay and f*cks off. EXCUSE ME?! And that's not even the worst thing he does. I cannot feel anything about the story or world when the MC treats it like a f*cking joke!

Now I just want to put in a bit about the manga. It has the exact same problems, and it is unnecessarily h**ny. Half of the pages are camel toes, ass shots or just straight bare tits. HOLY SHIT. It is borderline smut, which just makes it worse since IT DOESN'T EVEN HAVE THE PAYOFF. AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA.

Okay, I'm done. It's barely 2 stars for at least being unique in the way it f*cks up. There are better things to read on here. <<less

Well im at chapter 67 and quality of translation is much better then first 30-40 chapters and I prefer this version then manga version in manga I feel kyosai is beta and baka protqganist but here I feel he is alpha and a bit dens and stubborn but much smarter amd decisive (my honest impresion)

Both kyosai and hese friends feel more alive to me and in here we have more past of kyosai and his connection to everyone reveled to us.

I prefer this version of the story then manga... more>> but if you cant beare translation quality you can go for manga but I feel like its heavli censored and made to look stoopid-funy. <<less

It's not bad, its rather average, but it's unspeakably cliche I'm to take a star. At the very least it's alright to read if you like watching his stats enter interstellar space. It doesn't deserve 1 star, but it doesn't deserve a 4 or 5 either, the story is a bit hard to understand, and something is seriously wrong with the MC, I think he hit his head but it's not properly explained.

Read this in between things worth reading, and if you dislike any of the tags ignore it.
