6.9/10
This manga is full of ups and downs when it comes to the relative amount of enjoyment. At times, I see this as one of the best isekai mangas to ever exist, but at others, it’s nothing more than a mind-numbing read. Though, I’ll give the flowers where flowers are due, as this has one of the best developments, in plot or character, in any isekai manga, but it also possesses a horrendous amount of unnecessary details that diminishes any form of enjoyment.
The development of the characters or plot may come off cliche or annoying at first glance, but it’s done rather nicely to

compliment the story while taking its time. However, if I do have a gripe, it seems that characters are virtually forgotten about once their arc is done and over with with minor mentions here and there, which is quite disappointing and a waste of what the work the author had previously put in. The plot is also full of unique struggles with a hint of mystery, as this is one of the few reincarnation, isekai mangas that the mc doesn’t get spoon fed skills, or experience without much challenge; though, his power-ups seem to appear at “the absolute last moment.”
Now, time to get in the massive negative about this manga: the overwhelming amount of information that needs to be processed in each panel. I know the manga is currently consuming ~5 LN/WN chapters per manga chapter, but the amount of dialog that gets exchanged in a singular panel can sum to half of a novel’s page worth of words, which is ridiculous. That may be a hyperbole, but I can’t count the amount of times where I just mindlessly scrolled passed the dialog as I didn’t care enough to read all of the stats or conversations, which really ruined the immersion of the manga.
This could’ve possibly became the best isekai/reincarnation manga out there, but with how incredibly condensed this manga was made, it ruined most of the potential enjoyment. However, it’s still one of the better isekais to read purely from its ability to develop characters and plot.
