I recommend you to reread chapter 1
as many times as possible.

More about the topic I've put behind a spoiler; not because it's a spoiler, but bc everything you need to know is already named. The hidden text dives further in. The author/mangaka directly tells us he is stupid. so stupid in fact, he entered schools where the bottom of japanese hierarchy ladder is. smart & discipline [top ladder] <--------> stupid & delinquents [bottom ladder].
I'm from a western country and people at the age of 17 still counts as minors/children. Each country their own, but I was taught that the brain isn't fully developed at that stage yet + hormones are spiralling as fast as a beyblade. On top of this, his stupidness is another important detail. dumb people tend to need more time to process information aka slower aka the r-slur (also known as Intellectual Disability).
I understand that you couldn't know about japanese hierarchy - especially if you're not familiar with another culture's meta (which i only got from watching animes tbf). it's time to put down ignorance towards why and hows of humans in general. What if a human is not capable to evolve as fast as their fellow peers? What if a human is neurodivergent (neurodiverse means different way of thinking, and this honestly applies to all humans. however, that's a topic for some time else)?
Ok, hold up. this is my 2nd time reading from the start and somehow i missed this?
That makes sense then.
He isn't childish, he ain't dumb either, he's an airhead.
I know such characters from other mangas.
Also, i get all that brain development thing. Putting aside MC's backstory, I would expect a fantasy wold with magic would ignore common sense. That's part of being the main character that was isekaied.
To use your knowledge to your advantage especially when you know you are going to get killed.
Because the point of these people being isekaied is to save the dying character. But our lil dude here is so full of flowers in his head, it annoys me.
But i know now why he can't focus on his 'staying alive' goal.
He's THAT kind of yankee...
That makes sense.
Imma go read again from the beginning.
Lord forbids i forgot again in the future about his mental again.
In my defense, I've been reading other similar stories with same isekai plot.
I ended up expecting better from these people that getting isekaied that i forgot some of them isn't even an adult.
Just to be clear, he's CUTE AF.
That's why i stayed.
And that's why I'm also mad because his out here being cute and all when his family will be in ruin! 😭😭😭
