I'll be quite quick :

This manga is "not that bad" from what I have read (up to chapter 17), but it feels like every other low-mid tier Isekai : full of incoherence, with a flat story.


Conclusion first (so you don't read the potential spoilers): As every Isekai, this can be an interesting read for someone not used to "reborn in a new world" type of stories. If you have read other Isekai, like Word Magic or Solo Leveling, just pass by.

From now on their can be some spoils in my review, even if I will try to not.

First, this is the cliché of the OP ... MC, a bit like in Reborn as a Slime manga : There is no real challenge in comparison to him, he adapts way too quickly to the situation.

Second, power level of characters are inconsistent : MC is supposed to be OP and able to destroy a country etc, being unique, but there are bad guys stronger than him ?

Third, the second character, a girl transported with him, is also a blessed magician, but "less blessed", and here is the biggest problem in this manga I think : At first I thought like they would be on an equal level, or even the girl would be, power side, stronger than the MC (she is like "quad elemental" while MC is "unique", which would have been wonderful to have the MC be a support type), but no, she is just ... well, shadowed by the MC from the chapter like .. 2 ? So no wonderful character development unfortunately...

I partially watched the Anime adaption but it was terribly beyond belief.
This specific manga was one of the very first adaptions for Isekai as a whole.
The start setup wasn't bad, it was better than most, but the issue lies with the terrible story.
You can see first hand there is basically no development what so ever?
No direction, no clarity, no reasons or purpose, enforced with a disgusting lack of common sense.
I would like to apply the example of" You should walk the talk, and none of the characters here do that?
It is a bummer, the potential was there but never got to the point of decent.

A very bad isekai. Weak story and there's just nothing interesting going on, and nothing in this manga really saves itself ...

1 - Story [4/10] - Nothing innovative in terms of isekai. He dies, goes to another world and finds out that he is super strong. There is no really good climax and the story is weak. Nothing too incredible.

2 - Art [4/10] - Very bad, the scenarios are almost nonexistent, there is no really good design for the characters. The traits are very amateur and the art in general is very amateur. I think I was very smooth on the note, but he is ... not so bad that he earns less than 4 in my opinion.

3 - Character [1/10] - I can't understand exactly how it is possible to create such superficial characters in general. Everyone is boring and some things are ridiculous.

Protagonist does something very chivalrous and pays for himself as badass. Heroine: "Ah! You are the love of my life!"

For what reason isekais do this in droves? Anyway, nothing very incredible comes from the characters. Simply weak and shallow.

4 - Enjoyment [1/10] - It was not fun to follow the work, quite boring and superficial. There is not even an interesting comedy. The enemies are crude and do not create a good climate. It sure wasn't fun.

Overall [2.5 / 10] - In general, the work is pessimous. Not read this!!!
