Liked SAO's initial premise, I hear? well, here's a perfect fit for you

unlike its counterpart new gate's a bit more laid back, but that's probably because it doesn't star a brooding middle schooler as its protagonist but instead a normal guy who... y'know, acts like a human and isn't a total cardboard cut-out for you self-inserters out there

it actually starts at the end of the 'death game' that you lot always talk about, which is only really featured in flashbacks (though it gets a whole LN for itself later on),... more>> and is actually set inside a fantasy world identical to that same game, only five hundred years later. it's cheesy at times, yeah, but honestly I wouldn't even say you'd have to turn your brain off to enjoy it as the gist is figuring out just what the heck's going on with this world, and what happened to shin (the main character) in the first place - really I liked it just because of how wacky it is when shin keeps trying to apply game logic to actual things; someone'll call him over and he'll just be like... welp, let's take the entire house! to everyone's astonishment. it's still a through-and-through power fantasy, and an average one at best, but a fun read none the less

maybe read the manga if you don't want to dive in just yet, but some of the volumes are actually officially translated and around 70ish chapters are scanlated <<less

The romance is solid but there isn't much focus on it. Everything else is as generic as can be. One of the few times where the manga is actually better, and the manga isn't that good either.

Actually just a reminder or maybe a question too, on shin translation he said that he translated it from the web novel not from the light novel but here in novel updates it says translated from light novel but the chapter it working is from shin translation. Just to be clear shin translation is not a light novel but a web novel translation. I'll accept opinion lols hahaha.

Honestly, it's average. I suggest it for people looking to kill time. The only thing I actually dislike so

Spoiler

far is how the MC is all trying to keep his abilities secret, but at the same time reports that he has killed a super powerful creature or he has wiped out a medium sized army.

Although I liked the story, the pacing feels kind of slow even with the overwhelmingly OP MC and his party. It feels more like a slice of life adventure especially with the lackluster depictions of battles so far. In my opinion, it's one of the novels you would read to burn time. I might redo my review if I continue reading in the future.

Spoiler

I'm at the flashback volume and it feels pretty long.

The story has a very special kind of setting, just like Overlord. The author uses a great amount of time to describe what is happening and why. The MC is calm, and just want to find information in the new world. Some times it can be painful to read through him acting like a 'normal' person while he has the ability to obliterate everything.

Good plot, slow pace. The protag is uncommon; he is very OP but maintain low profile and doesn't unnecessarily make a show of strength. But it lacks the 'x factor' that makes stories excellent and unforgettable, though I'm not exactly sure what it is.

It starts really good by showing how OP the MC is, Then little by little the situation also allow the MC to subtly show off his OPness to common people in that new world. But later on after 2 volumes, I started to feel the progress is lacking (he rarely show off his OPness to people, only those closest to him), the pace is kinda slow (my taste of OP MC is something like ATG, Shura's wrath, Death March) but it's maybe just my personal taste.

All in all, the story... more>> could be a lot more exciting but author decide that MC needs to be extra low profile. <<less
