When I saw that this LN was getting an anime adaptation, I immediately had to pick it up to see why this of all light novels that are there, got picked up for an anime adaptation and a western physical release. There are many popular light novel series that never got an anime or a western release, but somehow this series that very few people know gets one, I'm honestly still trying to understand why.
I feel like I'm the only person who would actually read over 70 chapters of this, because quite frankly why would anyone else, it's targeted towards teens, but teens definitely
...
wouldn't wanna read this, it clearly isn't targeted towards children since some of the content isn't entirely appropriate, so I have to question what demographic the author was trying to reach here.
But I'm surprised honestly, after reading the first few chapters I understood why its such an unknown series, because its really boring, there's no real drama or even fan-service for that matter, it's the most basic fantasy slice of life that someone could come up with, but still, it grew on me as it went on.
I feel one of the strongest aspect is the characters, Reiji is definitely very likeble and doesn't come off as pathetic or a wimp, Mina with her initial gag of being a ghost is really funny, and she is more mature and less childish then her counterpart Noela, who is my favorite character, the way the author writes her dialogue is really funny and something many people missed on the anime because the subtitles didn't do a good job. The rest of the cast is also filled with with different personalities, and they are all pretty likeble characters.
The plot if you can call that, is really simple, basically every chapter there's a new problem and Reiji uses his medicine making skill to make something that will solve it, there's definitely some variation, and not every chapter is the same, but they basically all follow the same formula.
The art, like pretty much 90% of LNs out there, is really good, something the anime missed because the art on the LN is really pretty.
I don't think its for everyone, it took some time for me to actually really like it, it's a very basic isekai story carried mostly by the characters and their interaction, its something written to be a chill read where you can just relax while reading it, so don't expect anything in the realm of romance, magic, or battles because this got none of that.
