Description
Links are NOT allowed. Format your description nicely so people can easily read them. Please use proper spacing and paragraphs.One day, Japan was transferred to another world.
Because of its poor food production and previous reliance on imports from other countries, Japan faced a food shortage crisis. To slow the effects of starvation from its populace, the Japanese government declared a state of emergency. The Japan Air Self-Defense Force explored the surrounding area and found a land mass about 1000 kilometers to the southwest―the continent of Rodenius.
Japan was able to resolve its food shortage after entering into diplomatic relations with the Principality of Kua Toine and the Kingdom of Quira. However, at that time, another country on the continent, the hegemonic Kingdom of Rowlia, declared war on Kua Toine and Quira.
In light of this new crisis, how will Japan respond? A survival story on a national scale!

- The military: Just like GATE, it's all glory and no tears. Get a small ship into a big meeting. No shit. Shelling all around the world without even concerning how will you refill those bullets. Firing SM-3s without even realized that you don't even have license to manufacture such things. Go full 'magic sucks, our weapon best' with one-side battles, no casualties, even though the opponents has law-bending thingy? Soldiers never complain, never bad, you are good, everyone is bad, best performance, no error, it's all fun and games that you go around and shoot everyone that you are ordered to? What about logistic? What about planning? Tactics? Strategic gains? "Oh sh*t we have around a bunch of ships coming what are we going to do?" "let's slam a bunch of missile that we have no reserve left, never call the 7th Fleet for help. never even bother laying a fast minefield that we are superior against them, and fire a bunch of expensive torpedoes into a bunch (again) of antiques from WWII? Fighting tactics? No, just go boom boom. Everything is so boring that the action scene, I just want to skip and see the result. No losing or stalemate, just winning. Coping, to be exact. And yet someone around there still said that the author knows about military, but as far as I saw, his knowledge is just like a bunch of wikipedia headlines and newspaper stuff, incorporated with flawed logic in modern warfare combat tactics and operation. And he doesn't even know what the JSDF has in their storage to do the job. What a nonsense.
Overall, a bad read for me. It's too shine and rainbow, s*upid logic and execution, poorly developed, lacking too much, a lot of issues more, and copium is everywhere. 2/5 is because the character is at least, likable a bit, if not to say they are pathetic as the story.There are some interesting tidbits in between arches that make for a more compelling reading, but the main meat which are supposed to be the "battles" play out exactly the same. I came here expecting "Risk, the novel" with politics and war or something like that, instead we got "Dragon ball Z" applied between countries (obviously Japan is Goku haha). I don't mind the "logic" between the countries and the "reasoning" of how Japan runs their international relationships based on their constitution (although I know jack sh*t about it so the author could be pulling it out of his arse and I would be non the wiser) for setting up the stage it works well enough. But outside of the "Maou" arch and some individual short stories like visiting the enclosed island in a chopper and the romance story between a JSDF commander and a middle aged lady from fantasy land I find that the battles are kinda bland. Couple of "oh shit" moments sprinkled here and there to break the monotony but still, they feel too superficial and lack substance to mark the difference. It's a nice power trip fantasy but it gets fairly repetitive quite fast... still I am enjoying it though? hahaha.
The world Japan found themselves in seems interesting and have many secrets to be found, including some that's quite close to Japan themselves, in addition to the usual isekai things like otherworlders shock and react to new OP people plop down in their world - but this time it's an entire country with comparatively much higher tech.
Too bad the author don't seems to understand much about politics, economics, or military - aside from something one could quickly glance from wikis.
Battles seems to be the main way Japan (and the author) show off their power, but they're shallow and bland :
When there're air battles/strikes the skies would be clear, sea battles on calm open seas, attacks would "evaporated" their targets in single shots or "broken in half" for ships (a bit beliveable early on with Japan's modern tech against mediaval - Renaissance era ships and some WW2 era tanks later, less so with WW2 era planes/cannons against magic ships that apparently can explode in single hit with normal shots and bombs), while attacks from the "less developed" sides would basically means nothing, such as wyvern's fireball directly hitting modern attack copter and both copter and pilots seems to be completely fine, or a more-or-less Victorian era artillery directly hit a WW2 "Japanese" tank and couldn't even scratch it. There is one occasion with some semblance of armies using terrain to their advantage in the "hollow moutain" that's basically a very huge and wide cave, but it's just an excuse for the story to use Japan's tank against enemy tanks without both side's planes swooping around.
The pre-curpstomp "hubris speech" also feels the same for pretty much everyone : "We are stong!" *their own armies getting blown up* "Oh no!". Seriously, I barely simplified it.
One moment that stick out to me and made me realize how shallow the author's understanding of military stuff is comes from, ironically, a submarine part, where a WW2 era sub got attack and sunk by Japan's homing torpedo.
I'm not an expert, and my "understanding "of this tech comes from the game Cold Water, but homing torpedoes have 2 stages of pings : regular "searching" pings and more rapid "homing" pings when they found and heading for their targets.
If the story had shown the sub's crews (from the country that still trying to develop working homing torpedoes but yet to have one) hearing the pings, wondering if it is trying to search for them, then realizing that it indeed does when they notice the pings get faster and closing in on them, the dread from that could easily add much more life to the story and give the readers some interesting tidbits about how homing torpedoes work. But the story only had the torpedo pinging regularly, and while the crews did shown fear, I felt much less dread reading through that part compared to a Cold Water clip of a sub trying to hide, run and dodge homing torpedoes.
Don’t get me wrong it’s a good novel to read but I also want to point out a notable flaws in it. - Japanese in this novel is too nice. It’s actually disturbing how they are so nice it felt like this is a propagonda novel. - The disparity between each country technology is too weird. Some country is using biplane while the other felt like they are in middle age. - the filler chapter is Sooooooo Longggggg it felt annoying. but overall, it’s good if you have nothing better to read.
