Hasami Tatsuro and Yashiki Ai, two ordinary teenagers, experienced an earthquake while on the way home from school.

The earthquake cracked space and transported the two to another world.

Landing in an unknown forest, the two initially began to grieve. However, unbeknownst to them, a system had installed itself into their bodies, granting them the ability to gain skills and statuses.

Hasami Tatsuro obtained the “Level Eater” skill. “Level Eater” allowed the host to devour others’ levels/skills and make it his own.

Yashiki Ai obtained the “Valkyrie” skill. “Valkyrie” allowed the host to obtain and use any offensive skills from different classes, without the need to specialize.

With their cheat skills and teamwork, they managed to venture out of the forest and explore the new world.

This is a story of two ordinary kids.

This novel is great with a power couple and theres no relationship drama or any harem whatsoever, just MC and his waifu, romance starts early, MC isnt dense, they get physical, they get op. only downside personally was their motivation to get stronger was to go back to japan and finish school and live a normal life when they basically strong enough to be magic and martial gods, I simply dont get it. I get going back to earth to see your family or visit but going back so you can finish 2 years of highschool? Then work a 9 to 5? MC has enough magic to fight dragons and create new life and thats what you wanna do?
Spoiler

of course their motivation changes to saving planet earth eventually but their initial goal s**ked imo

When I read a JP novel, I want two things:

  1. The MC is not a beta (beta = scared of girl cooties, self hatred, cowardice and/or suffers from JP moral deficiency that falsely equates killing and mu*der)
  2. The plot is at least good enough to kill time with.
High standards for a JP isekai, I know, but this novel does deliver at least that.

Premise

The novel starts off when Tatsuro and his long-time girlfriend, Ai, is transported to a different world. Of course, they want to get back to Japan. So far nothing... more>> special. Wanting to go back to Japan has been done before (see e.g. Arifureta). Mildly interesting is that it's a couple that get's transported. It's usually a truck-kun casualty or an entire class gets transported.

What to expect

It's non-harem isekai. Typical of isekai, there are a lot of RPG elements, including levels, stats, etc. Up to this point it's mostly drama and slice-of life with some romance fluff and battles. Sometimes-funny jokes is usually mixed. In the first two arcs, it's exclusively monster battles. In the third arc, some plotting is revealed and there are some human antagonists. I expect that to continue. The pacing can be a bit slow at times, but that's a matter of taste. As far as I can tell, there isn't any plot holes. Don't expect the author to win the Nobel laureate for literature anytime soon, but as light reading it's not unsatisfying.

Characters

In general the two MCs are well rounded. Tatsuro is definitely the brains of the outfit while Ai can be a bit air-headed with the occasional flash of brilliance. Neither of them are betas. You're not going to find Tatsuro's nose exploding or running away to the next country at incredible speed when Ai proposes something naughty. Ai supports Tatsuro and he consults with her as any good couple should. Neither wants to kill people, but will if necessary. That's honestly refreshing when comparing with most JP novels - especially isekai.

Spoiler

After Tatsuro kills a bunch of bandits, Ai insists that they kill the leader together, which they do.

[collapse]

The side characters is a bit flat, which is understandable since the interactions with them are limited. You get the feeling that they could be better developed if reintroduced.

Translation

Translation by Nocturne is excellent while that by Soafp is sub par to say the least. Note that both seems to have dropped the novel. I'm currently reading the raws.

Recommends

If, like me, you want JP fantasy with a non-beta MC, I'll give a few "turned into anime" that I liked:

  • Arifureta - Naugumo Hajime (Isekai/Harem). MC is pretty ruthless. the characters are good.
  • Mushoku Tensei - Rudeus Greyrat (Isekai/Harem). A classic. More plot than anything else.
  • Black Summoner - Kelvin Celsius (Isekai/Harem). Battle junkie. Some things I don't like, but overall OK.
  • The world's greatest assassin... - Lugh Tuathan-de/John Smith (Isekai/Harem). Ruthless MC, but he cares for the girls.
  • Banished from the hero's party - Gideon/Red (Fantasy/Romance). Mostly drama/fluff/slice-of-life. Real imouto wants to turn it into a harem though :-)
  • Konosuba - Kazuma Satou (Isekai/Comedy/Harem). Note the guy doesn't actually get anywhere with his "harem" and to be fair he really only goes after one 14 yo girl, so no wonder.
  • Redo of Healer - Keyaru/Keyaruga (Fantasy/Harem). Not for everyone. The MC is a literally insane rapist with brainwashing power.
There are some more, but I'll stop here. Thanks for reading. <<less

Rating 4.5

I admit I'm biased due to how much I like the couple here. It's a bit sappy iirc and they act their age at times. But it's so nice to find a JP story that tries to treat romance seriously. The story itself is a bit above average for your standard isekai. There's nothing ground breaking here, but I don't have much to nitpick about either.

This series actually reminds me of another early couple story that ended a while back. The name eludes me, but here's hoping that this... more>> series keeps getting translated. Wish there were more series like this.

Found it - Isekai ni Kita Boku wa Kiyoubinbode Subaya-sa Tayorina Tabi o Suru

Oh, and I saw one review complaining that they didn't have a goal? They don't bring it up all the time but they clearly had one from early on in the story. It might be pretty common as motivations go for this kind of story but it works.

What a 'nice' romance. ;) <<less

the prologue was discouraging since there already a couple. Now that the pairing is settled I thought it focused on another approach. But its kinda dull as an isekai it has no goal or reason for the both of them to keep going might say the MC is doing it to protect his girl and get stronger but is that all? What about the girl shes also a MC says both of them are Protagonist. It tries to be fluffy but the way its written is disgustingly weird. The way... more>> that the story is handles surprising good but the Plot (was there even a plot). Lets say it just lack the motive or excitement to keep on reading it just lacks plot. Its a good story if you dont have anything else to read. <<less

This seems like a really good isekai for once. Not too many cliches. The author has a good imagination for new monsters, and the fighting is interesting. The MC isn't dense, there's no harem.

However, the author decided he's gonna make his characters the type that absolutely wont kill a human being. When he tried to write himself out of the hole he'd put himself into it was pretty bad. It seems to me that Japanese authors write their protagonists either as way too disgustingly nice. Or to be completely psychotic.... more>> There's not many in betweens. These two are the disgustingly nice. <<less

After reading 18 chapters, I can tell you the MC is not very bright, he maxes fire magic when in the forest and uses it instead of maxing earth magic, he can’t use earth magic without gathering stones, they are fighting bears, instead of taking the levels completely, he takes the levels of few of their skills and leaves other skills and their levels in tact, he maxes fire magic to the peak of the world which is LV10 and yet he still can’t one shot a bear? Honestly the... more>> girl is a better MC for me, also what is stopping his from creating a sphere of water and using it to drown the bear? Omfg man, I quit <<less
