    Geist x Revenant: Kusozako Mob na Ore wa, Aibou no Seirei o Bishoujo ni Shinka Sasete Saikyou ni!

    It’s not well written. Comes off as someone who is very new to the whole story telling thing. But it’s got some decent ideas behind it. Character is not actually bland. Just not fleshed out. What’s there is enough to get the ball rolling if it had a lot more work put in. And some bits are oddly...

    Ochikobore [☆1] Mahou Tsukai wa, Kyou mo Muishiki ni Cheat wo Tsukau

    Just a couple chapters in. It’s funny. Usually, I like the concept of something but think the execution is terrible. In this case, concept seems terrible. The fact MC can already use magic before the coming of age ceremony kills it, because the school should know some of what he’s capable of...

    Tenseisha wa Seken Shirazu: Tokuten Skill de Slow Life!?

    I’m not against the premise, but the story does seem very amateur. Kinda “this happened, then this happened,” without really going into detail besides repeating certain basic premise stuff. For example, don’t need constant verbal reminders MC thinks he’s weak. In general, gives impression...

    Ryoumin 0-nin Start no Henkyou Ryoushusama ~Ao no Dias to Soukaku no Otome~

    Mixed feelings about this. Has some decent world building ideas and focus on the ways people live. But also feels like it sometimes moralizes in a way that’s somewhere between superficial and immature. Minor issues, but not a fan of the art, the jokes about Dias being dumb feel lazy (could be...

    Yomei Ichinen no Koushaku Shisoku wa, Tabi o Shitai

    Very strong premise, and not terrible delivery. Wouldn’t say it’s amazing, but the parts that pull at emotions (like how he’s treated by family) don’t feel forced. Instead, it feels very much like viewing the situation through a kid’s eyes who isn’t seeing the entire picture but gets enough to...

    Maou Toubatsu Shita Ato, Medachitakunai node Guild Master ni Natta

    It’s like Eminence In Shadow, except instead of being an entirely tongue-in-cheek chuunibyou experience it’s some kind of weird wish fulfillment of being an OP and extremely modest kid who all the girls in his age group want. Also… to quote the best out of context panel in here by far which the...

    Itazurakko Yo ni Habakarazu!!

    I have severely misread the description… Thought it said “high school” was the worst enemy of demons. Lesson learned.

    Akumade Taidana Akuyaku Kizoku

    Looks like a solid story. The concept is strong and, outside of a few parts that seem like author is leaning into wish-fulfillment, pretty good execution. Most villain reincarnation stories have this very meh plot development of going from trash to generic-protagonist. The also seem to obsess...

    Ougon no Keikenchi

    Decent enough if you enjoy power progression. Very much a “this happened, then this happened” story though. You ain’t reading this for how well written the characters are, especially in the first few chapters. Very meh, but MCs playing evil overlord is a fun concept. And at the very least, the...

    Slime Seijo

    Just started. Cool concept, but dislike the execution. Way too much focus on physical differences (which I bet gets skipped pretty quick). Not nearly enough on mental difference. Don’t need some kind of edgy amoral MC, but it’s weird having the slime essentially be mentally a human from the...

    Reincarnated as a Polar Bear: The Legend of How I Became a Forest Guardian

    It’s not amazing. Not much detail and logic is kind of meh. (Like, how does he have any background knowledge at all about the werewolves and knights?) And the art is… comparable to the story. But there’s a bit of charm to the awkwardness and bear puns. Even even some charm to the idea that MC is...

    Dungeon ni Hisomu Yandere na Kanojo ni Ore wa Nandomo Korosareru

    Way better than it had any right to be. Started out hating the art, edgy as hell, and weird vibes that kept me thinking author was trying to squeeze in fetish stuff. But plot actually got interesting. Still not great, because reversion powers are kind of hard to get right. But happy I stuck with it.

    Suna Mahou de Suna no Oukoku wo Tsukurou ~Sabaku ni Tsuihou Sareta kara Ganbatte Sokoku Ijou no Kokka wo Tatete Mita~

    Think greatest problem here is just the lack of anything beyond barebones story boarding. Particularly when it really needs more. Like, why the hell is sand considered a useless element when you’re surrounded by it? Especially if you’re going to immediately show off tons of strong sand spells?
