I came from the manga, and I honestly wish I just stuck to that.

The general premise is quite generic with an OP main character trying to actively sabotage his reputation, but hilariously backfires instead. The area where the story falls short is that none of the background elements are ever expanded upon. The vast majority of chapters are self-isolated and have little to no consequence on the overall plot. Reading this feels like reading a bunch of loosely connected One-shots; Or to be more accurate, it is like reading a... more>> 4-koma series in novel format. It's fun for a couple of laughs but it just drags on with no real "rising action".

The Manga-version fleshes out a lot of the bland story elements, most likely because it is based on the Light Novel version instead of the Web Novel version which this translation is based on. My honest opinion is that you should read the manga (or LN) version and be satisfied with that, because the WN version is not worth your time. Rating: 2/5

In regards to the English translation: the first few chapters on NU have terrible translation, being either MTL or just bad. The current translations are "acceptable" but also sloppy/lazy. Lots of typos and sometimes confusing translation that distract from the general flow. It is "understandable" so you can slog through it, but it definitely could use some work. Rating 2/5 <<less

A very fun gag manga novel. When I say that I literally mean it. As the other reviwer says, it plays like a 4-koma gag manga with the same punchline. The good news is that his actions does build up the more he accidentally shows 0.000001% of his true power.

If you can handle a little goofy novel, give it a go. If you think it might be boring, then I suggest you try reading it's manga adaptation. Otherwise, it's a nice read if you like silly interactions between over-the-top (personality-wise)... more>> characters. <<less
