Sentouin, Hakenshimasu, in short summary a underrated piece of work that can hit it off, depending on the audience's reaction to certain panels. Made by the same author of konosuba (Akatsuki, Natsume), this story brings in some konosuba elements (EXPLOSIONS, MUDA, etc.). This Isekai is also another parody, where the mc would point out the cliche elements of the setting, and lastly before we get to each arc of ratings, the main characters (No. 6, Alice) gives off some No Game No Life vibes, so if there are any NGLF fans out there, this one is kinda similar in character, but it won't be as aesthetic.

Story: The story starts off with No. 6 (MC) getting a mission from the higher executives of the evil coporation (Kisaragi) to scout out an unknown planet. With advance technology, No. 6 accompanied by an android partner (Alice) are teleported from kisaragi to the top of the sky of the unknown planet (Similar to how Shirou & Sora got isekai'd), safely landing with a parachute. After reaching surface, they discovered that this world was your typical generic fantasy land, but moving along they still have the mission to establish territorial ground and another teleporter in order for their evil corporation kisaragi have access to invade this land. In my opinion, I believe this has a better plot than his previous work (konosuba) as there is a lot to add to this story, but I haven't really understand the reason behind being an evil coporation and why they would want to claim more territorial land from another world.

Art: Not much to say since the artist does a lot of h*ntai works, I guess the art is good, I mean his talent is useful for the explicit scenes which in my opinion showcases some of the funniest panels I seen, so I do believe he captures Natsume's vision of his written novel.

Characters: The characters I gotta say in this day & age are god-tier in comedy, I would love to be bias and put 10/10 but overall I really haven't seen the character development for that kind of rating and the characters are all pretty one-dimensional as well, but they are still really lovable. Starting from the main characters we got...

No. 6 : Honestly I really do believe that Natsume has been influenced greatly by the Rance Series (H-eroge game series), because this character goes to even further lengths than Kazuma, first of all he is your perverted protagonist who does evil things in order to gain points (Points are a currency mechanism), since his specialty are perverted acts, he earned himself his own nickname 「ZIPPER MAN」/ 「STICKY FINGERS」, basically he becomes a stand. Now to the part where I said he goes to even further lengths, is where he does some eroge type sh*t in certain panels, that are absolute god-tier degenerate comedy. To compare, I can say Kazuma has more of the talk game where this guy has more of the take action game, although both are still virgins I believe. Also forgot to mention that he is also a lowly combatant, but he is also the commander of his harem since he knows how to fight. Also great partners with Alice.

Alice : High perfomance android loli, that is partnered up with No. 6, stating that she has his back. As a high performance machine, she accomplishes the harder tasks that resolves out of fighting, the best thing about her character is that she is okay with whatever degenerate acts No. 6 comes up with, because she approves all evil acts since that is what Kisaragi aims for. I'd say she is the best girl because all the other characters are incompetent, though she recommends that R-rated Androids are the best girls to get. Also great partners with No. 6.

Snow: 17 Year old Knight thot / Aqua reincarnate
Skills: Swordsmanship - Snow is shown to be skilled in swordsmanship.
Weapons: Flame Zapper
She had a harsh upbringing, but finally rose to great heights only to be demoted and put on the commander's harem (No. 6)
Loves Money & Wealth and is a whiny b*tch with a busty body.

Rose: A battle chimera loli who starts off with a megumin type of introduction, right after No.6 responded back in the same way, she then goes on about how she always follows the will of grandpa, pretty similar to that one nutcase who created the crimson wizards in konosuba. Her special trait is gaining abilities by eating meat from magic beasts (Similar to that edgy protaganist from Arifureta), she's the lessed focused on character out of the bunch I believe.

Grimm: A follower of the evil god Zenalith-sama, she borrows and recieves power, basically a archbishop. She has the ability to chant curses at people but there is also a chance it can bounce back at the user. One of these curses has actually bounced back and left her in a wheelchair, but the reason is really stupid. She can also be revived by leaving her to rot in a ritual. She is also looking to marry.

Enjoyment: Though the setting is although not that exciting, the decent and interesting plot combined with entertaining characters, makes this an entertaining piece of work. I really enjoyed this as these sort of characters aren't really the generic cliche types you always see, as they do follow the parody material quite a bit. My final note is to hope that the anime adaptation could be handed to a good studio, so that it can recieve the epicness this work deserves.

Story: 6/10
Art: 7/10
Characters: 9/10
Enjoyment: 10/10

Overall: 8.2/10 No.6 x Alice

SO this manga is written by the same author as KunoSuba. A first, i didn't have any hopes about it, but this manga surprised me in a good way.

This is teh story of a man, named Number 6, that is part of a vilain group. The villain group have modified his body, and send him to scout a new planet, because the earth is too hard to dominate.

The manga is filled wit jokes, and gags, and the fact that N°6 have to made bad points to obtain weapons make the hole manga fun.

The characters evolve with the story, and it's good to see that they learn to depend of N°6 even if he is a little evil.

I recommend you to read it, you'll pass a good time on it !
