but the more you read it, the more you will realize that the story is going nowhere
as some other reviewers say, the author is dragging the story for too long
there are too many unnecessary internal dialogue and redundant explanations i mean, we're almost 60 chapters, just taking care of a single small fry villain? seriously? and that villain is so s*upid, so 1 dimensional, that we can't sympathize at all with his acts then, 50+ chapters later when we thought it's finally gonna end... BAM!! another small fry villain and 3 other villains showed up.... just finish with one before introducing another bad guy, for god's sake!
brickprotagonist, there is probably an entertaining story, a plot worth following. But we spend too much time on the slice of life aspect of the story, or should I call it slice of adventurer life? Basically, thebrickprotagonist goes on adventures and gets involved in troublesome situations, chapter after chapter. The author puts a lot of effort to make a giant rabbit hunt fun, way too much effort. Describing events of the hunt and... more>>- Author has done good work in setting the story.
- Translation is also good enough matching with the story.
- The story will definitely make you curious.
- MC is decisive.
Cons:I really apologise for being snobby about this. I am really grateful to all those fan-based translators out there, who work hard to get people like us to enjoy the fantasy and adventure of these Novels. I also apologise to the translator for my complaining.]
Despite ALL the bad I have listed, the shear fact that the plot is good, the world is built ok, the monsters are interesting, there are lots of chapters; all this makes the novel a solid read that even made me continue to read the MTL of google translate on the raws that are 1900+. Good:
- side quests, stories, attention to the little things around the character, everyday activites, mindless filler chapters; these all give a real sense of 'months' of time for the story, so you can really feel that a lot of time has passed with the MC, not just one day or one month passing and being written. You don't read time flowing, you feel it. It is easy with 60% filler/world building.
- lots of world building
- progressive plot; like most CN/JP authors, the plot is 10x more impressive than the MC.
- the battle setup of the MC is unique and refreshing, but mildly irritating when his forte is magic and he uses melee.
- monsters battles are interesting, it's very similar to running through the Witcher 3, except instead of Geralt, you have another impotent weeb.
- lots of chapters, good updates
- the story is interesting
- firm enemy, the MC sucks pretty bad so despite being powerful, his ability to handle any human enemy at his level is very low, so it feels like he is only very average.
- MC doesn't use any tactics so his chronic incompetence in the novel feels very justified.
- it is very satisfying that the author has avoided most cliche romantic moves that identify a JP protagonist in a crowd of random MC's. BAD/What the author could work on:
- lengthy conversations in moments of 'urgency'. Often these situations feel like an afternoon tea party with casual conversation, then finally doing something...
- speeches longer than a politicians in the middle of combat while exchanging blows; in one on one this can happen, like DBZ battles, but what about group-f*cking-battles? What about your team mates who are getting f*cked up the ar*e while you are discussing the price of fish in Norway over a cup of tea?
- battles that should be short sometimes take far too long... OK the MC has OP stats and can fight for a long time but no one, not even A rank adventurers can fight for as long as some battles picture (~ch500 raws the dudes are battling for hours. HOURS. This is when you consider the distances, and other actions that occur in the background before everyone arrives)
- Random food talk filler that just doesn't make sense as it doesn't enhance characters... it's just too deep for what it is.
- cliche jap MC cringe moments: Bollywood grade self sacrifice, relationship insecurity galore, fem lead gets annoyed when another girl gets close to her MC who she has a barely existent and un-progressive relationship, reiterating things said multiple times in different chapters... c'mon, this BS is just unnecessary lengthening of the story. None of these build character and when reading you can just jump these paragraphs. It's all saying rather than showing, so the worst way of building character. OP MC vastly undervalued. MC just accepts anyone f*cking him... the opposite of CN MC... Ray takes 10x the f*cking but only returns 1 f*cking and embraces the other 9 like it's a gift. Complete opposite of classic CN bandit MC.
- Absurd adventurer world -> forced to start at F rank and treated as tr*sh. Dafuq?
- Just accepts being undervalued and not being given anything since his rank is low. They are hiring his abilities as an A rank for goodness sake and paying him for whatever his rank is, which is a hundredth his value. MC hates these up tight nobles yet goes with whatever they say when they want a request completed; URGHHH.
- no clear sense of the MC's progression; he uses a weapon he is garbage with and learns skills which don't help him in crucial moments, his magic which is his main card is massively underpowered and underused for what it is meant to be. For christs sake he actually chooses to use his beginner melee skills over his so-called first grade magic skills. He has the option to learn from a massively powerful wizard but gives it up for his garbage melee skills. He could learn how to manage magic he isn't talented in from Grimm, but just doesn't; grimm being talented in multiple rare magic that he doesn't have a forte in (with 1000+ yr practice, but still MC is MC so he can learn a few pointers).
- MC does lots of dumb things that don't fit his character: doesn't care about nobles so he doesn't bother to deal with them, then suddenly goes nuts on them after enough filler has been put in. Doesn't upgrade his own skills, over seth's who isn't involved in some of the crucial fights. MC only focuses on increasing the power of his weapon, not himself. 500 ch in and he hasn't improved his own magic ability. Doesn't bother to buy magic stones to further his scythe when he is literally loaded with countless platinum coins. Doesn't hunt high grade monsters because he isn't at the right rank, when LITERALLY NOTHING IS STOPPING HIM, he only isn't allowed to accept the high rank quests (the monsters are still there! do the monsters not spawn if your rank is too low lol?!). When he leaves the cities he ALWAYS encounters high grade monsters, he literally doesn't search for these monsters at other times. This is mildly annoying, but it is understandable if you consider he is immortal and very casual and is only focusing on his guild rank, but it isn't said anywhere, only implied through assuming the MC isn't an idiot.
- the lack of emotion in the MC can be frustrating
- with all the world building, how come there aren't any small romantic building scenes?!?!?!?! You drink tea with her, look at her eyes, the way she sits, how her clothes suite her, etc, you just have to notice one thing that you like about her for gods sake to show us that there is something there! There is no progression at all~! My money is on it being oh you so nice, then oh lets have tea and kiss, then lets go to your father and get married, then marriage at end of story because romance after marriage is too hard to write. With no progression in between any of that except for those key points. What do you even like about her that makes you think about her? The MC gets distracted by half naked adventurers and still likes her for no apparent reason LOL.
- human enemies and monster enemy ranks vary depending on the situation. An A rank monster is very hard to deal with, but an A rank human is easy to deal with. An A rank human sometimes take hours to deal with, but at other times can be dealt with in minutes. WTF? A B rank monster can be dealt with in seconds, but at other times takes 10's of minutes to kill. WTF? Generally it's progressive but sometimes it's out of control.
- There are only 2 categories in Japan, R18+ and G. The author carefully avoids anything more than characters in bikinis, or anything deeper than kissing to ensure that the story is safe for children of all ages and the workplace. God forbid human romantic interactions in a book where slaughter is a national sport. If s*x was remotely alluded to (a night together perhaps?) this novel would instantly be classified as p*rn, f*cking lol. For gods sake Japan, can't there be more than 5 authors who have the guts to write a novel with s*x in it that isn't p*rn?
- Finally, the most criminal and common offence of Japanese authors: not saying who is speaking. Not expressing how something is said. I cannot fathom how Japanese authors believe this is not important, and do not include it in their novels. Even the translators do not include it, or make assumptions from how speech is written. It's just left up to the reader. Do you only talk to other people in monotone? Just typical incompetence in conveying tone in their work. It really makes you wonder if any of these authors are above 8th grade - what the hell do they teach in national language classes? (why do you not have any writing skills?). I'm sorry for expecting writing skills remotely on par with english authors. I'm also not talking about translations being poor. I'm talking about structure of paragraphs and the actual sentence order and what they convey; this can be seen with google translate. The tone just isn't there.
