This MC is everything that is wrong with Japanese MC. Brainless pussified to the extreme and apologizes for everything. It is a chore to sit through and read this through this awfully terrible written character's eyes. The god that resurrected him should have thought better and just let things be, maybe then this novel would have ended on the prologue.

The story and the comedy is top notch cant say anything cause I laugh my ass off. If you see the illustration you may get what 36 year old ossan. The pace is somehow fast and the MC is brave enough to burn a noble and become friend still this scene is funny. The development was soft. But the genre not reflect it. Just read it for your free time. It's easy to read.

Sorry for my English but this novel really turn from ok to bad because of protagonist contradict his characteristic too much and his s*upidity hurt my brain. (Prob as much as my English skill going to hurt your)

Protagonist seem to lack common sense, first of all he know that his male "friend" can't control his s*xual desire, but he let him get near his crush anyway even though he already saw what was happening while they were hunting a dragon. Maybe because he want a benefit from being with... more>> him, but then he refuse a noble daughter even though she's rich and by just playing with her, he can get his dream house in a matter of time but "no" cause she is annoying.

Then it come to his relationship with his crush, first of all. What's wrong with him!?
It's not like he has any moral standard or anything. He just keep thinking about s*x and other perversion.
He has no problem seeing women get r*ped because he understand "her perversion", he has a gut to buy hooker, he has no problem flirting with dark elf, and yet he can't make himself to flirt with his crush.

He risk his life to obtain that house, but he gave it away for s*upid reason, even though he can benefit from staying there. Since he want to learn how to make youth potion, he can live with teacher and ask her anytime he want, he will also have additional study time.

I feel like protagonist goal is pointless, from his position now, he can acquire everything he want in just 1 chapter, House + Wife and children, it would be better if it's a story of protagonist trying to protect what he earned. But no he just blow every progress he has in just 1 chapter for s*upid reason. <<less

This is terrible, people dont realize they are reading NTR until it's too late. The author should have made clear that it's that kind of story. I really wish I didnt spend time reading this. The parody of the isekai genre falls flat.

Since I cant find this while logged out I assume this review got censored.

The MC looks practical and obedient to his own rules. He doesn't want to complain and always apologize to his comrades. In almost two years of reading the series, the MC has developed a lot of Rules in his life. The number one rule is 'Thou shall s*x to a virg*n woman and not a sl*t one'. Well I guess, in the end he ended up with someone he will put his d*ck to her v*gina. The story seems not following the real flow of the LitRPG such as killing Goblins and making a name and title. The MC is ended up being friends with Goblins

Hate it or love it. If you're ever bored with nothing to do or youre looking for a story to turn your brain off and read then I can only recommend this one as its been fun.

Its basically a twist on the classic tropes and bs you'd normally see in isekai novels but I think its done pretty good by bunkololi (that or im reading in to it too much). Our MC Tanaka has some problems with his looks, perception of the world and a dirty mind that makes you... more>> feel that the monologues are disgusting and over the top at times. However the world he is transported to is also mad. This story will definitely filter you fast if its not your type. This novel is s*upid as hell but it was like a breath of fresh air. Sure it feels nonsensical and frustrating due to how crazy the charcters are, but you could tell it would be like this from the start. I dont know at what point in the story it was when I found myself just wanting to mindlessly consoom more and more of this novel until the end of time

Spoiler

In one of the early volumes I was surprised, thought it was some cuck-sh*t novel, checked this website to confirm the tags (that used to be attached) at the time and it had the ones I hated but theyre all gone now 👍🔥🔥 Read on and all was good but it did carry a weird NTR vibe.

Maybe the WN progression or ending is dogsh*t as some have claimed in the reviews, dont know anything about that, but the Light novel version is still being written so I hope we arent trolled by the author haha. <<less

Love it. LOVE IT. This is not your dense_as_rock MC that every isekai MC sh*t who doesn't realize that a girl love him. Although he's a bit closet pe*vert but it's funny on it's own way. Also, The awe-struck storyline and great illustrations really makes me love the story even more. Highly recommended this series to everyone who want to read the isekai genre.

Tanaka may be OP but there is something every reader should know and remember. He is not an ikeman, he is a ugly Japanese wage s*ave. He lives with the morals and guidence of his previous Japanese lifestyle and everything stops him from pursuing his "dream" which you'll figure out by reading. Tanaka isn't a bad guy, he doesn't even act on his impulses and is pretty fair and generally good. Though his cravings are weird but there exist people who want to eat literal sh*t and derive pleasure from... more>> that so Tanaka is pretty normal albiet a bit weird for his tastes.

Though he is OP he can easily die if he doesn't use his healing magic or simply isnt quick enough to pull and action. He can't revive the dead and he can't fight large armies by himself. Tanaka is normal but given a power which he uses to help and in turn it makes him a better person aka a stronger person. <<less

It's mot as bad as many of the reviews paint it, but it sure isn't good either.

There's reviews that complain about the s*x in this novel the problem is there just ins't any. All you have is the MC thinking about s*x, that he isn't getting. If you are going to get upset about the thoughts residing in a fictional man's head well that's your problem, and you should maybe thinking about lightening up.

Well while the s*x isn't the problem there's plenty of others.

Lets start with the characters. There's not... more>> a single one that doesn't grate annoyingly. The main character is the absolute worst offender. If he can do something s*upid he does. He does s*upid things continuously endlessly and plot armor works it out for him. The supporting characters are all every bit as bad as well/

The plot ? Well there are some interesting scenes and some fun fights but that's about it. The rest is just rough and often painful to read. There's vast sections that make little to no sense.

Bottom line if you like reading the thought processes of a self defeating s*x obsessed guy, you may well like this. If you don't you will hate it. <<less

It’s a kind of a top class dark fantasy that worth reading. Author’s caught quite untrivial thought that not an amount of guro makes book grim and dark, but characters and their deeds. Also strong point is mastery of transforming disgusting moments into farce, that doesn’t incite to drop the novel.

Everybody before me excellently has told what is this novel about.

P.S. Who in a Gods name did put a tag NTR here?! I’d like to watch straight and deep into this person’s eyes.

Netorare means cheating to person in actual relationships.... more>> Not chilling the f*ck out* with somebody before starting dating with someone.

*Excuse me my slavonic memes. Surely you know one certain game about CJ. It was plenty of memes about machine translation of it. Like “wasted” to “spent” or certain phrase to chilling of f*cking that than gained a meaning of having s*x on territory of Ukraine. <<less

Maybe I'm reading a different version or its the difference between ln/wn but one of the reviews proved its spoilers false so far.

Spoiler

I like the adversity the MC faces. He stayed ugly, and that proves to be a hindrance. He was initially found suspicious and thrown into prison despite doing nothing. Nobody likes him at first glance. And I think that's great.

When he partied up, it was basically with a guy with his harem. And that harem was already taken for. There were no initial chemistry with the girls and the MC. That's realistic. After their first mission together, their viewpoint of the MC changes into respect.

That turns on its face with one of the girls when tanaka basically goes spouting cool anime lines to one of the girl when fighting the wyverns and dragon and protecting her.

After she proclaims her love for the MC, she stops seeing the ikeman and actively pursues the MC wholeheartedly. She didn't go and have s*x with anyone else after that.

The other girl basically left the ikeman as well after that and went on the path of being a jpop idol after discovering that she wants everyone's love. She remains is a sl*t.

Afterwards, he starts gets loli harem candidates. But backs off one of them as one of his friend wants to pursue her.

The lolis aren't the problem. His attitude towards killing isn't a problem. It's his monologue that's disgusting. I don't have a problem with him liking little girls but He goes loli this and loli that and it wears you out. He also gives disrespectful labels to the girls in his mind. He also thinks of ero while fighting and even contemplated guro when his allies were being chopped.

What is also annoying is his virg*n fetish. Initially, he was ready to go to a brothel but he didn't have the money. Somewhere along the way his standards went up

NTRs and those that hate or that lucky reader to stumble upon this review!

This is the strongest wizard and he gets all the girls...
It's not NTR since the girls were sexually active before they met him
and if you think they can NTR him, he as a virg*n is looking for a virg*n to get his first time and then the ultimate harem will begin!
When the girls start liking him they don't f*ck around...
and if you are mad or dissatisfied because there are girls in the story that don't belong to the MC, then that is too obsessive, and it is a very unrealistic standard...
And did I mention the dude is a master wizard!
He actually has a personality and he is not afraid to show it (though he doesn't want to get arrested by the loli police)
As for the upcoming harem, there are:
Spoiler

Blonde loli thick tighed high noble yound lady succubus (also known as loli b*tch), lesbian imperial knight with big breasts, op loli dragon, dark elf with a bombshell body, legal loli alchemist, sadistic shota flaming witch, sadistic/masochist maid who is afraid of nobles...

[collapse]
the dude is also an amaizing person with plenty of personality!
consider re-reading it if you read it before for too little or if new, this is a great read!

An isekai novel except this time the protagonist is a Ugly Bastard. And no this is not a "inner beautiful" kind of ugly bastard. This guy is waaay uglier on the inside compared to his outside. His inner monologues in later chapters get increasingly perverse and sometimes disturbing, the story is written to make you feel disgusted at the MC.

And amazingly, the MC totally agrees with you. The main conflict of the story is that the MC thinks he is a shitty person and is always cucking himself. You might... more>> have seen the netorare tag on this story, and yeah its basically the MC handing over girls that are throwing themselves at him, to other guys despite him knowing very well their feelings.

And the person he does like "The heroine" if you will... is as much if not a worse scumbag than he is, gives 0 shits about the MC and constantly fantasizes herself getting gang r*ped by other random dudes that are not the protagonist.

Overall, the MC is disgusting and he always is in shitty situations the enjoyment comes from the readers taking pleasure in the MC being in shitty situations.

Its also mainly a comedy. <<less

The story begins with the standard MC dies, meets god, and gets reincarnated with OP power. If that was all it was then it would just be another cookie cutter Isekai that would be worth your time. However, unlike other Isekai stories, the delivery and the MC's personality are what make it more interesting. (tl;dr is at the bottom)

The MC—Yoshio Tanka, simply known as Tanaka in the other world—has an extreme lack of self-esteem due to his previous life. This caused him to never lose his v**ginity and develop... more>> a complex over it; also causing his inner thoughts to become plagued with nothing but depraved s*xual fantasies. (Which, personally, can make you recoil in disgust at the radicality)

Despite his short-comings, he's actually kind-hearted, selfless, and intelligent which causes the heroines to fall for him. But, of course, because of his complexes, he becomes dense and refuses to believe that any cute girls could possibly fall in love with a "busamen* like himself" so he ends up doing nothing to them.

The plot is fairly decent as the author has clearly taken care of building his world, giving the feeling that there is more to it than just what was presented, and has written a storyline that has ties to previous chapters and character's deeds. The storyline planning definitely ties the entire story together well with good foreshadowing but only to a small amount. (It's not quite at the level of GOT with a giant interconnected web that ties everything together but that isn't really something that should be expected of this kind of story.)

The characters have a very much 3d personality that evolves even in side-characters. The MC hasn't had very much character development but with the way things are progressing, I think that he will eventually overcome his problems and pull through.

(The tl;dr of this review) Overall, it's an interesting story that keeps the overused OP MC in Isekai theme fresh. It isn't the best Isekai story out there by far, but is something that you should definitely read if you like the theme with a lot of pe*verted scenes and are able to tolerate being inside the mind of a sexually depraved virg*n wizard with a rotten heart of gold.

VERDICT: Read this alone in a dark room with lots of lube.

(side note and rant—ignore if you want: I think the reason for the poor reviews is because when they read the "harem" tag and "pe*verted protagonist" tag they assume that there'll be a harem gangbang. This isn't a valid reason to judge it poorly since this is how the author wants the story to be like. Not some shitty Isekai copy-paste story. Calling it garbage because you expected the MC to get a girl and be dull clone is unfair to the author. Besides, it's not like the author betrayed your expectations, if you actually pay attention to the beginning then you can tell that it's not going to be "just another isekai" and that the MC has major problems that'll hinder him socially and romantically. That being said, another problem other reviewers had was the extreme nature of MC's thoughts... Yeah. He's f*cked up man. I'd have given 5 stars if it weren't for how royally screwed up he his. But this, too, was shown at the beginning and isn't enough to give it a sh*t review alone.)

*busamen = ugly guy; sort of like a derogatory term; the opposite of ikemen which means pretty boy or stud or something of that sort (paraphrasing from what I could gather) <<less

I'll write it in point per point basis to summarize all of the story

1. The flow of story is quite good and the pace is not so fast not too slow
2. The story didnt really describe it's surrounding other than necessary
3. A lot of time I want to slap the MC for his idiocy and in-sensitiveness (90% of the time) (although thats what makes the story funny)
4. The character is consistent, no sudden change to personality or whatsoever (except Ester toward MC)
5. While MC is quite strong, you cannot fell his OP-ness at all. So the battle is quite enjoyable
6. The reaction of the girls toward MC is funny and enjoyable (reall Sophia? As long the face is good you didnt care what's inside?)

The perverseness of the author is making this whole thing into a non sense story. I dont have anything against story of that genre but, it seems senseless to me. The whole thing that the MC is a pe*verted person that always see the whole women populace as nothing more than fap materials was way out in the sense and another is the naming sense of the author, who the heck would name a person a Cyan b*tch? And a country called p**sy? I dont think the MC would get... more>> laid for all he could do is imagining a person as a fapping material and when the woman goes to him he would turn them away, what a load of bull story. Well, it is a lot better than those other stories I read (for the sake of reading) because the manga versions are good and expect the story to be good but there arent any good plot put together in the story. So, a 1 star. <<less

I wonder why with the low rating.

The MC is a pe*vert, but not to the point of degenerate. Ok, his thoughts sometimes can be over the line, but he keeps it to himself and never act upon it.

It's like thinking doing explicit stuff to your crush, but doesn't talk about it to anybody. It's very humane and very relatable, unlike those perfect gentlemen without fault MC in many novels.

To me, this negative aspect of the MC is a plus.

Glad this got picked up again for translations, I find it quite humorous in its adult content. The way the MC acts and the things he says are quite different from other light novels, making it quite refreshing in a strange way.

Spoiler

The MC also has an addiction to urine which gets put into the story in strange places.

Like others, a bit of a mixed feelings in this.

I don’t mind fighting dirty.

I don’t mind an ugly protagonist. I generally prefer to not read them if it’s ugly + obese + harem. That’s just satisfying a population’s secret desires.

... more>> I don’t mind a novel with no plot.

So, I find this novel not bad. Let me make this clear, the protagonist is a mixture between a 36 year-old virg*n and a 16 year-old virg*n. He acts relatively modest and nice like how a normal person should. He’s also more tolerable to things too. But then, you can take that as the 36 year-old part or just a really mature and not h**ny 16 year-old. But he also acts all h**ny and such. Also, I truly do not like how the protagonist handled Chapter 8. It’s not even about being an underdog or being tolerable or being modest and nice anymore. It’s a different issue.
Spoiler

So, some waitress mess up with her service as a waitress to some noble, like bump into him or something. The noble grabs her and basically needs to “teach” her some respect. Protagonist comes and saves the day. He burns the noble and heals him. Noble leaves and come back and uses the waitress to lure him. And what he does is just walk with him. Noble asks him to do something, he does it. Noble says I’ll pay you, and he goes sure. I like money.

[collapse]
Yeah, it’s one thing to be modest and nice. It’s one thing to be tolerable to certain things, like a drunk fight happens and a chair got thrown into you. It’s an accident. It’s one thing to be an underdog. But it’s another to be spineless. I’ll look forward to future chapters to see if he changes. But I really don’t like it as much anymore.

Yup, I don't really like 9 either. <<less

MC wants to do le*d stuff. Criminally so. He even has girls throwing themselves at him willingly... Which he promptly refuses because they are not virg*ns...

He spends volumes trying to do something, then abandons it at the last step because the price is too high. His starting ability could solve that in a heartbeat...

Finally gets the go ahead to woo the main heroine. She gets instantly written out of the story, apparently permanently. She was integral to many things until now...

Meanwhile most of the text at this point is about... more>> what sort of depravity he wants to commit, but has never once done in 4 volumes so far... I have no reason to believe this will change.

Feels like this whole thing was written just to frustrate the reader. <<less
