I don't know why everyone's hating on this. I quite enjoyed the story and characters of what's translated.
Hope someone picks this up sometime soon.

The art is bad and the story is generic. The tone is all over the place. They don't do enough with the "salaryman mentality" gimmick, and there's more backstabbers among the murderhobos than usual which can be funny, but it's handled very awkwardly.

I checked the raws till Ch.33 but...

It's a bit bland/boring, the next chapters are filled with dialogue that isn't relevant to being a "golem master". They find some random girl inside a test tube and freed her and then at around Ch.31 is when there's a reveal of a demon-looking guy.

I don't know if we'll pick it up or not, my group is a "democracy" if they don't want to pursue this, we won't. It may take some time as well since we're already full-hands on deck with our lack of CL/RD/QCs.

Honestly, I can see why groups dropped / passed this title. It's OK but nothing really interesting, different, or compelling. It tries to be both edgy and funny but falls short with both, making it feel bland more than anything else. It gives me Shield Hero lite vibes with the OP, ridiculously loyal beastgirl companion and his constant harping about how human beings are trash and he's a broken person who can't trust anyone. Sadly, the world building is underdeveloped, the constant barrage of people trying to take things from him or put him down are tiresome and repetitive, and the MC himself is inconsistent and boring. The best character in the story is his staff Diana, and she's sadly relegated to a plot device and / or comedic straight man most times.

As I said, it's not a bad story, and I'm not at all an Isekai hater, it's just nothing special.

I haven't read this bad of a Manga in a while. If this was just a harem eye candy series I would understand it's trashiness, but no the Mc jumps from depressed to horny to Arise to dumbass to overworked. And the Art aside from the knight golems are ass. So ass that I'm suspecting of him using assets of Internet of someone else's work.

This Manga is so ass that if the authors background is from a black company, pls stop writing manga and go back to that company.
