The novel has an interesting approach to the mob-to-hero format but with the "little-girl" magical girl trope. It's bogged down by the Leaf Studio's sh*t MTL translation often with mistakes in names and pronouns e.g:

I'm pretty sure it isn't supposed to be "Magical Girl Clara" but something like Kara or Klara instead as it's supposed to be a similar / in-reference to the kraken.

MC'S name (squirrel or whatever) keeps changing between chapters. So it's confusing.

Nightmer is supposed to be nightmare.

The MC we're introduced to at the start isn't even human at this point and wants to be a manga artist yet always fails at everything they do. (Reminds me of a certain grad student magical girl.)

I enjoy the novel because even if it has a bunch of stereotypes and references in the story, it frames these concepts through a new perspective that other novels often fail to do.

It has the cringe "just got a girl body and I gotta pee" trope and making embarrassing situations for MC so it might be a bit of a turn off for those that don't like that stuff (including me).

Honestly the novel is full of these tropes and character archetypes, like the flamboyant men and alcoholic cute girls, yet it's somewhat plausibly explained why some of these exist in the world instead of "haha funny muscular man in heavy makeup" which I appreciate.

Spoiler

The MC literally has the Kamen rider transformation belt. Maybe similar to a mix of Kuuga and Zero-one?

So far it hasn't bored me even though it's similar to a lot of other magical girl novels. It just has better writing and believable characters. <<less
