Reviews

  • Awful translation

    By Tepid the Mediocre
    The translation of this book is a terrible mess. I didn’t read this volume so much as try to decipher it. The rest of the series has had occasional translation glitches, but this one is barely comprehensible. It deserves better. Boo!
  • Expecting further plot shake-up

    By Archeisse
    First is the part that’s niggling in the back of my mind : has there been a change in translator? Somehow there are minor inconsistencies that gets jarring. The one still fresh is Satou’s telekinesis-type spell, quite consistently Magic Hand, and then suddenly he uses Psychic Hand instead, never mentioned elsewhere and not some new spell he learned either. Then earlier, somehow Mia’s home forest changes name. This volume incorporates into the main story a story arc from the webnovel that was originally something post-credit, so to speak. Thanks to the adjustments to the story in the earlier volumes, it flows well, but it does seem like some more major upheaval of the plot is in the works. Regardless, I’m appreciating the growth of the author’s bag of tricks, namely in answering the question of “how does one challenge an MC who have basically all the tricks?” OP protags are all well and good, but part of the fun is seeing them struggle with figuring out the application of their own powers.
