Synopsis

Game loving shut-in Kazuma Satou's life as a young schoolboy in Japan abruptly comes to an early end...or at least it was supposed to. When he opens his eyes, though, he sees a beautiful goddess that offers him a once in an after-lifetime chance to be reborn in a parallel world. The catch is that the world is violent and threatened by a growing evil! Fortunately, he can choose any one thing to bring with him. So he chooses the goddess, Aqua! And so his adventure with his gorgeous companion begins—if he could just get enough money and food to survive, keep his goddess out of trouble, and avoid grabbing the attention of the Demon King's army!

Konosuba is an isekai for people who dislike isekai. Well, can be a fun watch for people who like the genre too of course, but if you’ve grown tired of the overused tropes and carbon-copy protagonists this one is a nice change.

This is a tale of a dysfunctional dungeon party and the chemistry between the characters is what makes the series so enjoyable. Starting with the main character who is a lazy, unmotivated, good for nothing, cowardly and with personal gain as the primary goal. In other words, actually relatable protagonist. Next in line we have a goddess with negative IQ that others thinks read more

This story is action-packed and full of funny tales. I couldn't contain myself when reading and it felt as though my sides were hurting the whole time. They call me an Aqua-Simp hehehe. I also like megumi bc her character design and attitude is very funny and amazing. Furthermore, I relate to the main character a lot. I would honestly do the same things he does if i got isekai'd myself. In fact, I would want to get Isekai'd and sent to another dimension and live funny tales like these guys.

10/10 recommend if u want to laugh all story long and if u like giggles.

You know how junk food tastes good but you know is bad for your health?

This is it. In the form of a light novel/manga.

Konosuba is an isekai light novel that differs in it's genre, because it never takes itself seriously. With it's premise being the overused cliche of the hero being transported into another world, just to defeat the greatest evil of said world, it manages to stand apart from the rabble by turning that entire premise on it's head. What if the hero doesn't want to defeat the 'Big Bad'?

Konosuba's greatest strength and weakness lies with it's characters. Starting from the main hero who is a 'NEET', a lazy scum and a pervert with a heart of gold (somewhere hidden deep inside him) and his unwilling companion in the form of a 'useless' and usually drunk goddess, hilarity is bound to ensue. Joined by the explosion crazed mage and a masochist crusader, this cast of characters can do no wrong. Well, mostly. While the usual tropes are turned on their heads in a way that leaves the reader laughing their heart out and begging for more, it is hard not to point out a big flaw of the series. The shenanigans can get a bit repetitive (if only a little), however the author makes sure to introduce enough new characters and attach interesting plots to our main cast to stall that impending feeling of repetition from clogging the flow of the story. However as mentioned before the characters are also the true bane of this series. In order to keep up the hilarity of certain situations later in the story, many characters' growth is severely hampered, which can sometimes seem a little strange and a bit off-putting knowing past events and interactions. Nonetheless if someone can get past this, this series is going to fill you with countless moments of laughter (or eye-rolling and facepalming).

The art is great, whenever we manage to get a glimpse, so there's not much to say about that.

Now, let's talk about enjoyment. Personally I really enjoy the series, mostly because it reminds me of trashy fan-fiction I used to read (and hoped to write) when I was 14. These novels to me feel like some cheap unadulterated fun, like ordering a double-cheeseburger, or eating an entire bag of chips by yourself when you're on a diet. It feels so wrong yet so good at the same time. But sometimes all you need to do is to let go and have some fun.

Konosuba has much to offer for anyone looking for some simple fun. But remember humor is subjective, therefore you should be informed that the humor of this story is better described by the adjectives used earlier to describe the main cast of characters. Should you enjoy these sort of jokes, then you will not be disappointed by Konosuba.

Basic plot outline
----------------
Kono Subarashii Sekai ni Shukufuku wo! tells the story of Satou Kazuma who is a shut in that dies in quite the pathetic way and ends up getting transported to a fantasy world.
In this world he has a choice to have any weapon , skill or talent , however he ends up choosing an idiotic and slightly more than useless goddess to be his companion.
