As you can read in the summary the story is kinda interesting. An exterminator (pest controller/killer) gets a new life after death but doesn't get any super powers so what can he do?

The MC is strong and mature and doesn't want to stand out. He accidentally got a big power up but still keeps doing only those quests that he likes doing instead the ones that would get him fame or fortune. I must say I like it! So far the manga has also stayed true to its name and the MC hasn't started learning magic or fighting skills.

Of all the isekais out there this ... is one of the better imo.

This is gonna be my first review ever so bare that in mind.

Warning maybe Minor spoilers

The story is pretty easy to follow and a easy read. Basically he just completes some quest and does what he wants. The MC is pretty OP, however he doesn't use his abilities to the fullest so he can live a life he wants to live. You know in other manga's like transported to another world type where the MC is OP and are forced to slay demons lords and whatnot. He doesn't want that to happen so he refrains from drawing to much attention. The action ... scenes aren't super intense, but his methods are that of an exterminator, poisons and stuff. You get to watch how he comes up with his plan to complete his quests and i found it pretty interesting/cool. The Art style is pretty good.

Overall i like this manga (/^▽^)/

Kujonin is not better than the average Isekai. After reading the reviews suggesting as much, I gave it a shot. Its premise is interesting, yes, but the story itself falls into many patterns that place it within the category of "isekai power fantasy."

Here's a list of tropes present in Kujonin:
-OP MC.
-MC gains power ridiculously fast and easy.
-MC attracts women without having to work for it; one interaction or trait is sufficient for creating this attraction.
-Women near the MC want to have sex at really weird times.
-MC denies all advances from women for no reason.
-Ecchi is random and over the top; there's no flow to it, ... and it's often placed in weird spots.
-Vague magic and leveling system.
-Bad pacing (mostly rushing characters and setting).

This list is not exhaustive, but it does cover most of what I think is bad about the story.

So, should you read this? If you're into Isekai stories and don't care much about the quality, give it a read. If you value quality, pacing, etc., this isn't for you.
