----------------------------------------
Interestingly enough, those in the assassin guild actually managed to made a good experimentations to Yogiri's power. And Haruto were able to create a solution just by that analysis. But well, who would have thought the 2nd phase of his ability is just world breaking that even the law of physics are easily dismantled. Props to them I guess that he was forced to use the 2nd level, I wonder if there's more phases to come and who would be the next contender to make him unleash it.

Anyway, the whole class was just annihilated just like that, I didn't really keep counting but I'm also curious if some of them survived. Even I could only pity them at this point so maybe it'd be nice to see some of them again, it's unfair if that annoying Hanakawa is the only one that they will keep encountering. I guess his stance is for comical relief now too but it's not gonna be funny for longer.

I am curious where it could possibly be going but this one is most likely the last one I will read.

The tone has definitely shifted, the first books were just the world being mega assholes constantly, to whatever it is now. It started as a sort of super parody of isekai worlds, the world being just a mishmash of randomly everything and pure scum, to being more generic with just the OP MC.

I have no idea how this book has 11 JP books since they just killed basically every single character. There are what? 5... 6...7... members of the class left. 2 ninjas, 2 MC, fatty, consultant, and robot dragon girl. (which is more than I thought I guess)

But seriously if it just keeps with the current trajectory of moving to a new location with entirely new cast and then destroying it, I can't keep reading.

I like the concept, the author themself said in the first afterword that the the point of the instant death ability was so you could skip the long drawn out battles where you already knew the outcome, but this book had plenty of slow boring fight scenes anyway.

I understand why the author kills all the characters and locations, the characters are all fundamentally one dimensional and it would only become more obvious as the books progress. Its also convenient as the author only has to remember like 3 outside factors in every new book.

Like 90% of LNs, it struggles with overall direction, unlike English book series LNs don't seem to be written with an end in mind while forcing their authors to stick to strict schedules leading them to be unfocused and meanderey.

So, gonna shelve this one and move to the next series. It at least held my interest enough to get me through 4 books, so it definitely had novelty.

oohhh this volume was so chaotic
deaths everywhere

i like how they hyped demon god Mana but to be killed in sooo boring way ( her tentacles just stumbled upon yoigiri by chance but killed just right there)

i wonder how story gonna progress
since they literally killed almost all the classmates(except ninja, samurai, MC, FMC , fatty ass)

may there are more surviviors

i get it from where the mentallity of sage sion is created , she herself faced all this cruelty while she and her friends were sage candidates
but now numb enough to do the same on yogiri classmates

To be honest, I'm extremely glad Hanakawa is still on this series. As one of the last (probably) surviving kids, I think he's the most funny but also the most annoying one.
I really enjoyed his voice acting in the anime as well so I read his lines as I'm hearing his voice at the same time. He took of somewhere so hopefully I'll get to see him in the next volume.
All the classmates basically gone makes me wonder what happens next but some may still be alive but would be surprised if they'd survive a freaking nuclear bomb. We'll see.
Sion apparently bites the dust in this one, wondering who the next foolish Sage will be. Also dark God straight up flopped dead with a mass of meat all around the city.

Got spoiled though by the anime adapting all currently 4 physical light novels in 12 episodes so this fourth I've now read was kind of like, meh. But still enjoyable.
The side stories are great as well since I kind of want to know how Yogiri got from living in a super high tech security place to going to a regular school. Hopefully it will be explained in future volumes in the side stories.

Also in the afterword, it's funny that the author is actually asking people to come up with villains and their powers just so they can be killed instantly. I like that idea. The new villains might not appear immediately but perhaps in the future volumes. Can't wait to see what kind of villains normal fans have come up with even though the series is over. I'm still looking forward to it.
