Hmmm, it's been a while since I've read the book, but I don't think the manga artist manages to convey Ferdinand's flashback scene very well. Or is the actual context conveyed in another book?

It's not terrible, but it's basing all its humor on exaggerated characterization to the point where it crowds out actual plot development and strategy. "Oh, the glutton shattered the magical illusion for us because there was food in the real world, because she's a glutton ahahaha!" It's not...

This looks potentially good. It's possible for a couple to drive each-other crazy without either of them being malicious. If this manga lets the main couple reconcile and they work out the issues that drove them apart to begin with, it would be a story teaching lessons about relationships that...

She complains about the skill names, but why? Is it something lost in translation?

"Haku" is nearly at the top of names I feel are severely overused in manga, only beaten by "Kuro"...

I think it would be nice if she could at least get magic resistance training, so it's harder to turn her into a cat or something. If she can get in on the whole 'live 500 years' deal, that would also be a nice bonus; it's hard to see the budding romance go anywhere long-term if there isn't a...

This manga is... OK, I guess. It's got the classical "The MC made a contract with a Dungeon so now he's unable to feel guilt about killing people" deal, though, which... isn't that even worse than contracting with a devil, really? I'm not a fan of the trope. More than that, what I like for a...

If she went for them both, that would be a novel plot direction...

I think I'll drop this around chapter 17; it's gone downhill lately... I mean, if I wanted to watch people make cool poses and drop one-liners, and it's all sort of meaningless because the protagonist isn't even there and when he shows up he'll steamroll everyone... I could just read One Punch Man.

This... I feel like, if I wanted to watch people make cool poses and drop one-liners, and it's all sort of meaningless because the protagonist isn't even there and when he shows up he'll steamroll everyone... I could just read One Punch Man.

Shouldn't the title be something like "Until the Buff Mage Realizes His Own Strength"?

The art is pretty good. The plot is... not. When I notice myself skipping to the end of entire chapters in a row to see the resolution, well, the adventure is not engaging. It's probably symptomatic that we never actually see the updated status board of the MC. His stat's don't matter, he's...

Is it just me, or is the drawing quality going downhill?

The translation still hasn't reached to where the manga begins; it starts when the MC is 12 and he's just become a newbie Porter at chapter 32. At this rate I'm expecting it won't catch up with the manga until chapter 60 or so. I guess the manga artist wanted the MC to be a bit older before...

I'd like to be able to sort by rating, so I can check that my ratings are consistent, find the ones I haven't rated yet, and find my absolute favourites easily. Filtering by tags would be nice too, but maybe it would be easier to modify Advanced Search to add a "title is already in my library"...

I hope he was smart enough to harvest the magic stone from the dragon and snake before he left. That's going to be the most value for weight he can get.

If you're going to make the MC hideously OP, you're going to have to make up for the reduced tension by challenging the hero in other ways, or upping the quality of writing and humour. This manga... doesn't do that.

In most respects this manga isn't bad, and the artist is talented - but the knowledge cheats the MC uses are such OP hacks that a real MMORPG would patch them within days of discovery. Thus, the story fails resoundingly in the worldbuilding aspect, IMO.

I feel like the mana stone change would be extremely overpowered in a MMORPG. It's basically an instant-win button. There's some novel stuff, but this manga just doesn't have a thought-out setting...

What is with that tiny chest armour, though? I've seen some dubious armour, but this thing... Anyone able to aim their blade would just go for the unprotected left side. Actually, most people are right-handed, so wouldn't hitting the opponent's left side be standard?
