â–¶Summary and recommendation: -----------------------------------------------------------------
[The Exiled Reincarnated Heavy Knight Is Unrivaled in Game Knowledge] Is a bog standard wish fulfilment power fantasy isekai. A japanese man is isekaied into a fantasy world based on a videogame he played. His IRL gaming knowledge is put to use and he becomes very powerul. Not recommended unless you enjoy reading trash (I do).
🟢There is very little sexualization or fanservice.

â–¶Story: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The introduction is as forced as it comes.
It thrusts the protagonist into the spot needed for the story to start with neither grace nor much thought put into it.
He is granted a class which is seen as useless by everyone in the isekai world, but the protagonist being from our world knows that this is actually one of the most powerful classes in the videogame.

Right out of the gate the story bombards the reader with common isekai tropes such as a weakling exclaiming to our hero to run away because his class is too weak, only for the main character to easily deal with the situation and show off how powerful he is.
It is a comfortable read if all you want is a predictable isekai, and you do not expect anything revolutionary.

â–¶Characters: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
If there is one praiseworthy thing that stands out in this manga, it is that the character design of the male protagonist and female deuteragonist are not what you usually see in isekai stories of this type.
The female secondary character in particular stands out as being clown/jester themed. Something I do not think I have seen a deuteragonist, let alone a (potential) love interest be.

The male protagonist looks different than most isekai protagonists, but lacks a well defined personality other than being good aligned and doing the right thing. Likely so that the reader may project themselves onto him.

â–¶Artwork: ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The art is fine, and fights flow fairly well. Which is important for an action filled manga like this.
