Him having to hit himself is kinda original. And this chapter felt a lot more enjoyable than the first one

As original as Final Fantasy 2.
Yes, THE infamous Final Fantasy 2, where you can hit yourself to make yourself stronger.

In that game, you get stronger by doing actions instead of leveling up.
So using Swords, levels your skill in Sword and also increases your Strength.
Using Magic, increases that Spell level, MP and Magic stat, you get the idea.
Players quickly found out that you can powerlevel your stats by leaving 1 enemy alive and then use your party as target practice.

Rant time.

I don't know if it's really called yen or is a translation problem, but why did we waste an entire page explaining that yen exists in this world, but is worth so much more than the old world? Couldn't the author just use whatever fictional currency there is? Do they think their readers are so stupid that they wouldn't know what money is that isn't called yen? What a way to ruin the immersion.

Rant over.

Pretty much every isekai has to explain the currency and compare it to the Yen. It's in some charter I'm sure.

At least the 1 Game Yen = 1 Dollar (= 100 Yen) makes more sense than the all too common fantasy worlds where 1 "Gold coin" = 1 Yen.
