One day, Japan was transferred to another world.

Because of its poor food production and previous reliance on imports from other countries, Japan faced a food shortage crisis. To slow the effects of starvation from its populace, the Japanese government declared a state of emergency. The Japan Air Self-Defense Force explored the surrounding area and found a land mass about 1000 kilometers to the southwest―the continent of Rodenius.

Japan was able to resolve its food shortage after entering into diplomatic relations with the Principality of Kua Toine and the Kingdom of Quira. However, at that time, another country on the continent, the hegemonic Kingdom of Rowlia, declared war on Kua Toine and Quira.

In light of this new crisis, how will Japan respond? A survival story on a national scale!

This novel had an interesting premise, what would a modern country do in an alternative world. But it fails to deliver, first the inconsistency of events.

1. WHY THE HELL IS EVERYONE SO CALM?. In a real world scenario, panic would rain havoc in the streets, crime will go up and everyone would go crazy. Imagine suddenly getting kidnap you would not stay calm in that situation.

2. Japan heavily relies on export, in food, in fuel and many other thing. The moment they get cut off from earths resources, everything will... more>> freeze. The markets gonna go up, people will starve and mayhem will insure.
Spoiler

though they explained it, it would still be insufficient. Even if you have food storages, I doubt it can feed all of Japan and will they have enough resources to make sure everyone receives its fair share. Sound like a logistical nightmare.

[collapse]

3. WHY THE HELL, ARE YOU FREELY ALLOWING INFORMATION TO FLOW OUTSIDE?. Like seriously, you are in a new planet with absolutely technological superiority. Why the hell are giving it away like candies?, it s*upid no retarted to even do it you are in a world we’re you have no allies and no information regarding in this world. So why give you’re only advantages to them, it’s like telling you’re killer that his gun is on safety rather than choking the living day light out of him.

4. And why is everyone in the political table so friendly?, and a LOT more thing that would fry you’re brain.

This novel is nothing more but a popcorn read, where medical warrior vs modern soldiers fight. It’s unlike Gate where it captures real world politics and the course of having something like it. Here it’s basically mowing down grass, no one is ambitious enough to see the benefits of being transported in a non-polluted and resource rich world with almost no military disadvantages.

If you’re looking at Swords vs guns novel then it’s a good read, especially without diving on the murky waters that is politics. But if you’re like me, who like a bit of realism to the novels then this is a hard pass. <<less

It’s hard to say whether this novel is good or not. To say it plainly, it’s like reading One Punch Man in novel form. You knew right away that Japan can win everything easily. But the novel stall its punchline so much you got annoyed by it

Don’t get me wrong it’s a good novel to read but I also want to point out a notable flaws in it.

- Japanese in this novel is too nice. It’s actually disturbing how they are so nice it felt like this is a propagonda... more>> novel.

- The disparity between each country technology is too weird. Some country is using biplane while the other felt like they are in middle age.

- the filler chapter is Sooooooo Longggggg it felt annoying.

but overall, it’s good if you have nothing better to read. <<less

I really like this novel but I hate the parts where the different county’s talk about Japan’s defence force and say things like “how can their navy’s magic cannons hit this far?!” Even though it isn’t magic, I get that they don’t understand it but still it gets me fuming how the different county’s are calling japans weapons “magic weapons” even though they aren’t.

Another part I dislike is when the country’s visiting japan, are amazed with all the advanced city’s and say like, “I can’t believe Japan made all this... more>> using science” or something like that. Thats kinda like saying japan made all that technology even though it’s the work of not only japan but all of japans old world for over 1000s of years. They know japan came from another world but are still saying that.

If they just think for a second, the different country’s are gonna realize japan didn’t make even half of the technology and that’s it made by not only japan but japans old world, not just japan. Well maybe this is just a me thing but whatever. Also sry for bad grammar didn’t really feel like looking it over much.

It just gets me mad how japans getting all the credit for the technology. <<less

I hope MoD include the short story "The Forgotten World" in the translated chapters because there is a hint to the next enemy of Japan, the Annun Lille Empire. Pride of Powers 1 will be the 1st encounter of Japan and Annun Lille Empire and the reaction of the ALE diplomat about the knowledge of Japan about their true national power will most likely lead Japan and ALE into war, added by the events in "The Forgotten World"

The Japan-ALE War will also become a test of strength and reliability of the new Japanese weapons (F3, aircraft carriers, nuclear subs, etc.) which will have a very important role in the defeat of the Ravernal Empire. If the ALE are better users of the RavE's technology than the HME (can use the Flying Battleships in its almost full capabilities) and Japan managed to defeat ALE, there's no doubt that Japan can defeat the Ravernal Empire.

Like GATE, if GATE was written by someone who didn't know about politics, economy, industry, human psychology, modern technology, diplomacy, history, logistics, or even how the military works.

Oh, and the author also wrote every combat encounter nearly the exact same way and then saw nothing wrong with that.

I liked this series as its similar to gate but instead of a gate opeing connecting both world its japan that have been transferred.

As alot of question that people ask. As why japan tried to deploy a relationship with the barbaric country. It is a known fact that alot of asian people still doesn't forgive japan for what they did in ww2 (just read alot of chinese novel and you know what im saying). What im saying is I think this is the most s*upid yet kinda realistic decision that... more>> japan prob make if this happend <<less

as of chapter 17: I quite like this, and the only larger issues I have with it are immersion-based. Examples would be things like worldwide (apparent) spoken modern japanese despite different written languages. Another (very large) immersion issue is the apparent worldwide use of the meter, which was not defined until the 1700's and used the earth's circumference, despite this planet having a different circumference.

EDIT: messed up when making this, so my rating is 4/5

Starts out okay with diplomatic treaties happening between Japan and different races but quickly becomes a Japan Jerkoff contest with how great their military is and how righteous their people are, not to mention how the author alludes to WW2 as just Japan being the Victim of U.S. Aggression and no remarks about how they invaded other countries with conquest as their goal. Read it if you like the usual advanced military attacks third world nation bit, but this just gets boring.

Ever since I watched Gate, I've been a fan of this type of modern military VS medieval army in another world kind of story. The story is told in multiple POV of different countries and their interactions with Japan. I think it's interesting how there's different countries and civilizations of varying levels of technology development found in that world. However, I do question some of the decisions made by the Japan depicted here. I don't know much about Japanese politics to complain though...

Spoiler

For example, during the international conference of the world powers, Japan was invited after they defeated the superpower Papaldia Empire. Here, they only sent their representative with a patrol boat from Japan's Coast Guard as their only escort, since they trusted the host country for the security and didn't want to hurt their host's pride. Unlike Japan, the other countries sent their stronger military vessels practicing "gunboat diplomacy." Then here comes The Eighth Empire representative declaring war on the world and leaving. Later, they come back and wrecked everyone including Japan's patrol boat with their WW2 era battleship and air raid.

Spoiler

Although Japan tries to prevent the outflow of their technology to the outside, it still spreads through books and material imports. There's even a book that shows how a jet engine works.

I still enjoy the story and can't wait until more chapters are translated. <<less
