Banaza was summoned to The Magical Kingdom of Kryrode as a Hero Candidate, however, due to having only the abilities of a regular citizen, he was treated as a disqualified Hero. He, who was originally supposed to be returned to his original world, became unable to return due to the Magical Kingdom’s mistake, and inevitably, had to live in this world.

However, the moment he became Lv2, Banaza acquired every attainable skill and magical ability, and he became a Super-Cheat with Stats that transcend normal limits! Even so, Banaza , who does things at his own pace with an easygoing smile, takes Lys of the Demon race as his wife, and fully enjoys his newlywed life. He then changes his name to Furio and leads an even more laid-back life! However, chaos is in store for the Furio household; on top of a strange pet and four, freeloading Female-Knights, even a Devil and Former Demon King join in. Despite his circumstances, even with his life becoming increasingly chaotic, Banaza continues to enjoy his laid-back lifestyle.

Please enjoy the story of the everyday life of the Furio family, which, with the birth of the twins, gets ever increasingly laid-back. Included is also the story of the man who became a Hero in Banaza’s place!

Hoo, a fascinating slice of life novel with OP protagonist similar to Death March, but unlike Death March where MC still haven't touch his harem yet even after hundred of chapters, This MC having s*x right after getting abandoned by the King and country (Chap 7) and doing the deed with the sexy demon nearly everynight.

Even though he's kinda oblivious to many things that made readers pop the veins on their forehead, but he is natural with woman, truly a Dangerous existence.

Magnificent.

I finish reading most of top jap wn/ln translated, or cn wn (not all of them). They are many novel that I want to wait till 100 chapter before I start reading. But unfortunately, not many novel reach 100 chapter.

So I spent searching for novel that at least without suspense and climax, a novel that doesn't make you want to say cliffhanger!!!! Because this novel doesn't have the cliffhanger, relaxing, no suspense, a little bit of comedy, no tragedy, horror or ntr. After reading many story with cliffhanger or cn... more>> wn that have non-stop enemy coming one after the other, I just wish just to read lots and lots of relaxing novel.

This story is an easy going one. The MC is trying to settle down, but manages to pick up followers over time. The curiosity of other characters draw them to him and thus they find themselves wanting to preserve this new relation. Really the side characters are much more important the MC. Truly a laid back story so don't expect a plot in the sense of a destination but its about the changes brought by the actions of the MC in particular.

While the translation of the NovelJapan version suffers until... more>> chapter 15 or so it gets better. <<less

A nice story of a typical summoned OP MC. By the way even though I rated it 3, I like the story.

This protagonist didn't came from our world, but from a fantasy too, but that doesn't make any influence in the story.

About the story, there is no plot, the MC is a overpowered guy who wants to live a nice life together with his wife. He is so OP that nothing seems to faze him, so even the cliffhangers doesn't give you any tension, so if you are looking plot... more>> stay away from it. <<less

Hmm, mixed feelings about this one. The usual trope: a kingdom who ejects him because he was thought to be useless, becomes OP quick, female followers are tossed in for a potential harem. But nothing happens. The summary basically gives you the entire story.

But apparently that's what the story is supposed to be, no plot or action-y events are to take place. In that regard, it gets the full points. But I'm not going to because I don't believe it deserves it. What I do like about this: not... more>> a s*upid MC, he gets a demon wife early. What I don't like: nothing happens, the female "knights" are totally unnecessary and just leech off of him, nothing happens, the blond hero as a potential rival fell short and became a disappointment, nothing happens.

Will leave this unrated though, since I'm dropping this pretty early in. But it's not my cup of tea... (2/5) <<less

Going to wait to read this, but I like that this MC immediatly decided to get married instead of being a pu*sy and blushing at every pretty girl ever (from what I can read from the synopsis). Plus I been wanting to read a slice of life novel that isn't like that deathmarch one where he just pussies out on the people close to him.

I read this the other day, after seeing the first episode of the anime series that is out now, and initially enjoyed it a lot. It's a decent premise (though hardly original at this point; MC gets summoned as an Isekai hero, gets thrown out for being a loser, turns out to be uber strong once he reaches level 2).

The problem is everything that comes after basically the opening scene. The writing, the characters, the MC himself, the antagonists, the plot, all of it is garbage beyond that point. And... more>> I am not usually that harsh about this kind of thing, but the author himself admitted at the end of Volume 1 that he "just kind of wrote this without any planning" and that is exactly what the entire thing feels like.

Let's examine the plot a little bit.

Spoiler

MC gets summoned by this corrupt King who has summoned something like 197 hero's before him, throwing them towards the 'Dark One' in an attempt to get them to solve his problems. The King upon realizing the Hero has no divine blessing and garbage stats sends the MC off rather forcefully to Delaveza Forest, which the Princess protests after hearing about it, as it's basically sending this guy to his death, given that this is a place the Demon army has been spotted recently.

This part, this build up period, I enjoyed (extending out to when he meets Fenrys, later Rys). The characters felt believable and even MC felt understandable. He was thrown into a tough situation and had to deal with it however he could. Next part, MC goes to the forest (a 20 day journey by carriage, with him imprisoned inside), at which point he's abandoned by the carriage only being given a bag of holding with money and necessities and some basic weapons in it.

MC takes a weapon out and kills some slimes that attack him after the carriage leaves, levelling up to 2. Upon levelling up he gains infinite stats and all skills, effectively. He's basically god. Now, we've been told that the MC was a child prodigy in mathematics, who grew up to be a successful business man. He was depicted as very talented at arithmetic. Here was the first fly in the ointment for me- MC doesn't recognise the infinity symbol (which all of his stats have become), at all. This is totally incongruous with his background, unless you accept that the medieval world they're from doesn't have such a concept, which... may be true, but I feel like that's more of a reach than to say the author couldn't be bothered to consider A to B here, and that is a running theme for the rest of the story.

MC soon discovers that his bag of holding, via passive warning skills, is enchanted to attract monsters towards him. He also gets the option to purify the forest and uses it. This levels him up over three hundred times at once. After that he decides he wants to go to town, and soon is given the option to teleport there, which he takes.

How does our genius MC react to all this? He promptly decides that it must be normal for people to learn teleportation at level 2 in this world, despite the fact that MC comes from a medieval fantasy world just like this one in which he knows only very high level sorcerers can do it. Moreover, he was just sent on a 20 DAY carriage ride by the King. If it were that easy to teleport someone why wouldn't they have done that? This is the first real example of MC being a completely brainless idiot - or rather, of the author pushing this angle of "MC is naive so he doesn't realise he's actually super strong compared to other people" - even though every logical indication in the world should tell him this. It's a classic case of forced writing, where the author had a direction in mind and tried to force it, not realizing that it's totally incongruent with the events taking place.

He also doesn't see anything unusual about levelling up over 300 times after casting one spell, deducing brilliantly that it must be a level-up "from casting a spell." And as for the bag, which all but confirms that the King maliciously planned his death? MC doesn't EVER spare a SINGLE extra thought about it throughout the entirety of the next 29 chapters. I'm serious, he never ever mentions it again, or ever feels any resentment, other than to reject the King's request later on (but politely, of course). Basically, he has no balls and no brains. Actually, it'd be fairer to say that he is simply not a real character at all, exhibiting no real signs of being a living breathing person. Rather our MC becomes more of a walking talking plot device that just solves problems instantaneously the moment they arise, only existing beyond the opening scenes to do this, and most of the story is not even about him.

Soon after, MC meets the main heroine, Rys. She poses as a little girl at the adventurer's guild in town and MC tries to help her. He is intercepted by a squad of four adventurers, who claim they don't believe he can teleport her and might be a trafficer. So he offers to teleport all of them to Delaveza Forest (where he just came from, and where Rys wants to go). He does this, shocking the adventurers and the little girl. But soon the little girl is revealed to be a ferocious demon wolf named Fenrys, the sister of one of the four legendary Demons in the Dark One's army. She threatens the knights and MC and intends to devour all of them with glee, and were it not for MC being busted power levels at this stage, she would have done exactly that.

However he teleports away the four adventurers and then he beats her in combat with an overpowered gravitation spell, at which point she... falls in love with him immediately, because he's so strong. That is the ENTIRE foundation of their relationship. The ONLY reason she likes him is because he's powerful. This is made especially clear later when she finds out MC killed her brother (and likely every other friend she had in the Demon army) in the purification spell he cast on the forest, and basically she says she doesn't blame MC at all and its her brothers fault for being a weakling. I cannot understate what an absolutely heartless monster Rys is, and how the author thought we could care about her is beyond me. I spent the entirety of Volume 1 futilely hoping she would have a miserable end, but it never comes. MC never once considers one iota of any situation he is a part of past the very opening scenes of the story.

Most of volume 1 is actually not even about the MC, because he is so busted in power level that every scene he's in becomes boring. So instead it's mostly about irrelevant side characters that he picks up along the way. I didn't hate all of those characters, but none of them are really significant. Neither is there any significance or stakes in anything the MC does, really. He has no ambitions or goals beyond 'living a simple life', doesn't have emotions like a normal person, doesn't feel vengeance, etc. The only positive I can give the protagonist is that at least he has a functioning libido, unlike most Jap protagonists written like this. But that's the issue, he feels exactly like one of those soulless ball-less herbivore protagonists in every other way.

As if just to deconstruct any further meaning behind the story, the author casually destroys not one, not two, but all three of the central antagonists of the story without MC ever even engaging them. I'm not kidding. The King who plotted his death casts a purification spell and falls unconscious for the rest of volume 1. The Golden Haired Hero who initially outshines MC at the beginning, turns out to be a coward with no potential and hides in a castle for most of Volume 1, eventually becoming despised without MC ever even being aware of him. And the Dark One, the central big bad of the story, becomes an enormous joke when he finds out about MC and starts visiting him, soon falling in love with Belirossa, one of the side characters (a weak human knight woman) that MC picks up and basically has as a pet at his house. This makes him come across as a love-sick clown instead of a Demon Lord, and is wholly incongruous with what we're initially told about the Demons, like Rys, who used to love butchering humans for fun (and she still would, if MC didn't dislike it).

First and foremost, I'd like to observe that having a title this long requires a plot robust enough to support it. But, the title is the most interesting part of the story, because everything else is virtually effortless. Upon reaching level 2 the character suddenly gains endgame stats and abilities. Pages of always on, passive functions.

Author; perhaps you feel like you skipped all the boring bits, and gone straight to the fun parts of the story. That's only true if you were living through the story as some form of... more>> vicarious achievement. For readers, much of the enjoyment is in watching the character struggle and grow. Even in the most low-key slice of life story there's some form of struggle. <<less

If you love a slice of life that is similar to Death March kara Hajimaru Isekai Kyusoukyoku, this is a novel for you. If you are not into enjoy-the-peaceful-life-while-being-OP stuff it is better for you not to lose your time.

The premise of the story is good and, as I have seen in other reviews, I love the facet that the MC is married from the start. If we watch closely we can see that author has a good grasp of characters and that the whole troupe that follows the MC... more>> is the source of all the humor in the novel. The MC has his moments, but it's mostly focused on relationship with his wife.

As the more characters are introduced, it opens up a lot of space for development of character persona and situations that carry the story. The style of writing is good, but the author tends to describe a lot and uses teasers for some situations like: something happened -> conclusion -> good solution that has potential and.... "but that is a story for some other time..."

The novel has a lot of focus on ecchi and talk/implication about s*x. I love ecchi as the next guy, but when it is used a lot it looses appeal. I love romance and this is a good novel for many romance subplots-has a good potential in that field. I would like to see author develop characters from generic ones (sexy airhead, overly-shy...) and give them growth.

For me what is the biggest minus points are:

Spoiler

Djin and Grand Magus of Midnight relationship that is soo out of the story context. Introducing them gave author a lot of space for story development, but what did he do? He created relationship where Djin explores s*x and uses Grand Magus as a training partner-so the "love" is born... There are some other implications that I hope don't come to life like one of tenants being close with a pet bear-and it is implied that they might end up in "relationship", or other tenant that rises and loves horses gets a s*x book called Princess and the Hors**en...

[collapse]

All in all, if you focus on slice of life, and can glass over some dubious things, this novel is a good read for fans of slice of life as OPMC... <<less

This series has events that happen, and it's a fluffy fantasy series. There is no development to these events; they are there, they are there, and then they are over. There is magic. The MC is in the honeymoon period with his wife, but the development of their relationship doesn't make a lick of sense whatsoever and leaves me wonder if she's still under the influence of his magic. There is limited character development, but all the characters have flat personalities and are easy to forget. There isn't action. The... more>> MC just does something and the battle instantly ends with no description of any fighting or battle, and the writer just jumps to the aftermath and skips all the good parts.

WHY IS THERE NO ACTION IN AN ISEKAI SERIES WHERE THE MC WORKS AS AN ADVENTURER?!

The relationship with the MC and his "wife" is incredibly disturbing. This information is revealed in the first few chapters.
Spoiler

The MC accidentally slaughters a demon general and his entire army, annihilating them from the face of the Earth. The general's sister tries to find human sacrifices to resurrect him. Since she was close to her brother, she probably had other friends or relatives killed by the MC. Even with all this hatred, she surrenders to him and decides to make him her "master." That night, she attacks the MC with lust spells, which he counters because he's just too OP. He then hits her with lust magic that is too much for her to handle and counter-rapes her. There is no way she could be in control of her senses enough to give consent. It's like raping a drunk person--you don't do it. Just because they're intoxicated and can't control themselves or express proper judgement doesn't mean they gave you the a-okay to bang them half to death.

After that, she continues to act like she's still under the effects of the spell. The MC is the most powerful person in the world, so his magic could definitely have long-lasting effects. She gives the vibe of a s*x s*ave more than anything else...

Aside from the battle, s*avery (he becomes her master), and r*pe, there really isn't anything else that makes their relationship happen. They don't discuss their different cultures, preferences, loyalties, families, values, etc. at all before they suddenly just get married.

[collapse]

Although the MC was an accountant or something in his previous world, he is completely unfamiliar with the infinity symbol. How did he ever pass math? Of course, it could be possible that he was from a medieval world, but we readers have almost no information about his past. I think he had a dad. That's it. There is extremely little background information, leaving him incredibly flat.

A bunch of women move into their home, and, although one of them is obviously lusting after the MC, the MC's wife lets them stay. Wtf? She has a possessive personality the rest of the time, so why does she suddenly become so mild and carefree? Of course, no one really has any clear personalities in this series....

There aren't really any good things I can say about this series at this point, which is why I'm dropping it. Annoying flirting and OPness is all that's happened so far. Boring. <<less

This novel is like a collection of short funny stories about the ridiculous things that happen to the strong people with no common sense who gravitate towards the MC and the normal people's reaction to them. The humour is simple yet not too simple if you know what I mean, so the final effect if pretty enjoyable to read.

This kind of humour is one on the strongest points of OP MC Isekai stories like Death March or Growth Cheat, so it's a good and tested method of how to not... more>> overuse the MC, which is the main danger of such stories. The downside is, don't expect any deep plots, epic fights or even high level writing, for those try something like Overlord or The New Gate. <<less

This is pretty scattered. The translators are all over the place with little consistency between them. Most of the characters are fine, but the push to keep the first hero in the story is fairly absurd and not amusing. He's complete tr*sh and is in the process of acquiring his own harem. The protagonist acquired a r*pe-happy futa-s*ave that permanently abducts random female opponents to her dimension for eternal r*pe. Ignoring that, I enjoy the conceit and general idea behind most of the story and the starting characters, but characters... more>> have been coming too fast and develop into marriage-relationships practically immediately. Probably would keep reading if it had a consistent translation or if it didn't keep pushing the r*pe or if the first hero wasn't a regular character, but all of that combined prevents me from continuing. <<less

Well what can I say... I actually started with the manga... (just like most of the novels I'm reading to be honest XD) and... I fell in love with the novel and seriously never devoured a novel so fast in my life... it's not the usual "I'll try to become OP and complete the mission" and more like "I'm OP now I guess... I'll just live with it... in the most lax way possible". I mean the MC was summoned as a hero candidate and because he didn't had any... more>> special powers he was quickly forgotten and was forced to go on exile from a land he barely stepped his foot on... got on level 2 and then suddenly had everything at his disposal and the early reaction of his is quite funny to be honest like... I can instantly teleport to anywhere I've been before? Since I don't have any special powers that means... everyone can do it! Impressive! (They can't...) It had to be his wife (ye... he got married in 5 chapters or so! so... no useless dragging) to show him (and the miserable performance of the so-called "hero") that he was OP as F***! And as soon he figured it out he was like... ok... let's live quietly and peacefully and enjoy life... He could be like... let's conquer the world or... let's kill the demon lord and Co. and be a hero again! But no... let's have tea and a friendly conversation with the demon lord and enjoy life... hilarious! I mean... the guy tried to instigate a fight with him... several times actually... first with his most loyal subordinate then with freaking dragons and then he showed himself frustrated by the previous failed attempts only to understood how OP the MC was and to misunderstood one of MC's subordinates courage (who later one finds the opponent that was facing and become worried that he might kill her for revenge) and fells in love at first strike and comes by to drink tea with a simple thought: "I now see his true character and that it's impossible to finish him off so I might come to enjoy life drink some tea... and admire the person who faced me head-on" (while that same person tried to flee with the tail behind her legs). Even after when the Demon Lord's position is in jeopardy instead of fighting for it he's like... sure go ahead. Have fun!

I mean... moments like this makes the story fresh and somehow alive and the adaptation of the side characters to the MC's lifestyle is quite good to be honest... instead of trying to manipulating him to their own gains (except the cough cough "hero" ofc) they adapt and follow his lax way of living never forgetting their crucial tasks. So what happens when you have this kind of MC alongside with his wife (who btw is also a demon), the Demon Lord, and other characters living alongside? The answer: a pretty lax family and a nice story overall. To be honest they don't have much fighting scenes but the ones they have are quite funny the way they are described and even though our MC is a pacifist he doesn't have a problem of getting his hands dirty for the sake of his family either like the time he took his precious time to beat the crap the devil who nearly killed his wife (probably one of the few moments where he releases his true anger) or when the demons "try" to attack the city he's in or his family members but even then, most of the times he let's... angrier family members take care of the situation.

Seriously a comedy/ slice of life with a pinch of action and a lot of romance, specially between the family's couples... one other thing... thank god the MC isn't Dense and quickly realizes how powerful he truly is... honestly the Dense type MC kinda annoys me nowadays.

But there are 2 reasons why I'm not giving 5 stars: first... the translation is not completed yet... I seriously wish I had serious cash flows so I could pay someone to translate this faster (and better ofc...) and the second and most obvious are the quality of the translations... although I don't mind that much it irritates me to see the characters's names change from chapter to chapter... I mean... and sometimes even the context is a bit off... but since the story pulls me back to constantly check for updates I don't feel like it's correct to punish the series that much because of it's translators and subsequent... also I actually read until chapter 80 but that was a direct translation from raw to English with google translator so I don't truly think it counts... the reason I did that... well... check it out yourselves :).

To conclude: Awesome MC and support cast, cool and funny story, interesting story twist when comparing to other isekai novels but google translator's translation: 4 stars

P.s: I'm seriously waiting for the manga to also develop but by the speed of it... I don't think it will get near the speed I wanted too :/ <<less

While I quite like the novel and the MC, who is OP and decisive, the translation quality is a bit annoying at times, especially the names changing quite often. Also, the novel romance seems to revolve more around others compared to the MC, which kinda makes it annoying for me. Other than that it is a good slice of life novel.

A nice slow story about a Main Character who goes from his home fantasy world to another, gets rejected as his stats are average, and then becomes Overpowered when he reaches level 2.

MC is literally overpowered, there is basically no problem he can't solve in a second (he can even rewind time if someone is hurt) so don't expect to see him to be challenged by anything.

Honestly an enjoyable read, the story is Laid back, the characters are fun and enjoyable also unique, heck theres not a lot of novels out there that shows a romance between a demon lord and a hero's comrade lol.

Things progress at a rather odd phasing, a lot of others prespective but for a laid back story with an OP MC and no Plot, I guess it fits.

The bad news or good news depending on your prefference, the MC only loves one gurl, his wife... Well if ya aint gonna put... more>> a harem tag on it, why didja introduce so many likeable female charas?

Lastly, NovelsJapan sucks, the first few links are dead while 50 to 63 redirects me back to ToC, so the only free readable chapter is only up to 49, hopefully seigi picks up this from 50 since I dont think it will do any good to retranslate 1-49 over again. This was a pleasant read. <<less

Where the story falls off for me is when the story tries to give everyone screen time. MC is the MC of the story for a reason and it feels like the author is trying to make room for all the side characters for that position.

Again, I don't care if the side characters get their 15min of fame but it's to the point where the MC is becoming a side character. I feel that the only reason why it's written the way it is was so the author can tell the reader,
