Game Sekai no Mob Akuyaku ni Tensei shita node Last Boss wo Mezashitemita - Ch. 1 - I'll become the ultimate final boss!!

[GrimGriefer]

is it just me or are they transitioning from being isekai'd by a truck to isekai'd by overworking?
It seems to me that they want the stupid people who think this might happen to kill themselves from overworking rather than jumping in front of a truck.

 

[Ayumumono]

I'm almost impressed at how contrived this is....

 

[Redd_____]

Die of overworking.
Get isekaied into a young, handsome boy who is talented.
Aiming to become a final boss by doing a lot of bad things ?

WTF is wrong with his head.

He’s trying to help everyone by making the final boss a good one

 

[Vicic]

If they also named the butler Sebas, they would have checked EVERY SINGLE STEREOTYPES

One of the problems with the story approach of the isekai'd MC being a villain is that the MC's character is often based on the idealized average Japanese person. They are generally polite and kind with some strong moral concept. This makes the MC deciding to be a true villain a farce from the get go because they do not have it in them to perform any actual acts of villainy. This makes the story very uninteresting as it's not people misunderstanding the MC but the MC being delusional and misunderstanding things on their own. It doesn't take a lot of effort to make an MC an idiot after all.

Alright. Time for this guy to avoid doing the same overworking he did in his past life by overworking now. And achieve his goal of becoming the ultimate bad guy final boss by being the ultimate good guy main character.

Another "I'm gonna be the best villain ever by doing the good things and stupidly idioticly confuse why my so-great-villainous plan doesn't work at all" manga, eh? Let's follow 3 chapters rule before dropping it off.

another garbage manga with MC wants to stick to story instead of doing whatever he wants... and they always want to act like a "villain" but they always fucking do a good deed at the end of day. Seriously Japan get a fucking grip.

...Did we read the same first chapter? I don't think it's an amazing manga either, but you guys might be reading a different story entirely.

Some weird idea of stress relief, probably.

Some of those events seem like the most contrived bullshit I've ever read. I'll keep this on my read list, but I won't be surprised if I drop it.

WTF AGAIN A DRAGON WAS SLAIN?!
STOP FUCJING HATE MY FAVORUTE MAGICAL CREATURES!!!!

Calm down dudeguy, did you even actually read the chapter?! It wasn't dragon liver, it was FAKED. The merchant sold them a 'hungry bird' liver and disguised it as dragon liver.

Yeah, we did. It just we have read so many similar manga and we just get tired of it. That's all. We still gonna read tho seeing where it goes then drop it if it's not improving, moving out to another fresh garbage dump.

Not much has changed. Before it was killed by truck because they were overworked, now to be more "daring" they go only with the overworked part.

You say that as if I haven't read my own fair share of isekais, man, and I have, too. I get thinking this is garbage, but clearly the idea of this manga is reverse-overlord "no matter how much I try to be an asshole the plot contrives to make me a saint", and there really hasn't been any signs of the guy being secretly good or thinking good deeds would make him evil. He literally sent his cook and apparently everyone involved in getting that meal to his table into the dungeon for a week because he could, because he didn't like liver.

I get I'm being undoubtedly pedantic here, but how in the world did a lot of people manage to read this chapter and pull the "I'm actually nice all along" card?

Yeah, well, i never judged you on how many isekai garbage you have read. That's on you, you offended yourself by misunderstanding what i implied in my reply.

And how did we know? Well it's easy. We read the goddamn manga description. It's right there!

"The last boss of the game Altena Fantasia...

... Isn't me. I was reincarnated as one of his underling mob villains. Determined to take the place of the infamous last boss, I resolved to liven up the game as a true villain.

But for some reason, all my misdeeds end up being praised, and my reputation soars..!?

How did it come to this? Somebody, please tell me!"

You see that! I bolden it. Now, I'm gonna offend you. If you have read your fair share of isekai garbage, you should have already known to check the manga description so you don't get ambushed by the wrong pile of garbage you don't want.

...But that's exactly the line I've said, man, just reworded?

You're interpolating from the text "all my misdeeds" to additionally mean "the things I've done were actually uncompromisingly good, I literally just make excuses for why they're actually supposed to be crimes, you see." Like the MC would think giving money to the poor would be an incredible evil deed to do because it would make them heavily reliant on his wealth.

When the first chapter clearly doesn't give off that vibe at all. Let's break this down, shall we:

Overworked guy wakes up as sidelined villain. Some part of him is still the evil asshole(or he was always a bit of an asshole himself, who fucking knows), so he figures he'll upstage the actual real villain because he clearly doesn't give that much of a shit about anyone. Some chef just gave him a dish he didn't like.

"Oh shit. Perfect chance, I'm gonna fire this guy and imprison him, and everyone that helped put realize this dish—even the people they bought the ingredients from—into the dungeons. That's real fucking cruel, I bet!"

And—let's just get the cutesy artstyle and the lighthearted/absurd comedy tone out of the way—it really kind of is.

But now, it turns out, through a comedy of errors and misunderstandings, the entire manor misconstrues his actions as benevolent. Well. Boohoo for him. Turns out being evil is a lot harder than he thought.

That's not the character betraying the premise, that's the world railroading him to be the saint; which is what the summary points out, what the premise promises, where seemingly none of the plot you and the others put forward could be found.

Now, don't get me wrong, there could be a change into that direction, sure. But for chapter 1? None of that's there. (An update, here: I checked the spoilers from the Light Novel someone provided earlier in the thread, and the direction stays solid, too.)

And you don't have to worry, I'm not offended, and haven't been offended from the start—just baffled.

Though, speaking along those lines, I hope you don't take offense to the things I've said, too. I mean no insult.

This is stupid trash.

But its also my kind of stupid trash.

Thanks for the translation.

It's like MC from "I'm the Evil Lord of an Intergalactic Empire" and the Guide from the same series got combined into one entity

Nah, chillax man, none taken. It just imo and maybe it's safe to assume everyone you tagged think the same whether the world makes the evil deed the MC does as saint thing, or the MC confusing doing good deed as villain thing (usually with self proclaim), or MC unconsciously doing good thing by doing bad thing, or MC forced to do good thing because of their Japs morale value, it's all fall under the same category of genre. And it always follows the same pattern. Just like the isekai villainess thing, the generic premise always goes with the villainess is taken over by good girl while the good heroine is taken over by some bitches with attitude. The only difference between each story is that how the author execute the idea and playing with the variation. But in the end it's still the same but different thing but still the same.

 

[Solipsist]

Not sure if I dig this or not.
There are enough stories about a clumsy idiot, who wants to be evil, but ends up being a saint.
The diff is, is that they seem like genuine doofuses, like children who "play pretend".

This MC, however, genuinely seems like he's willing to kill someone for the tiniest reason, just to cosplay as evil --- but the author will play it as a genius move, to execute a secret spy of an enemy nation.

The real problem is the intent and personality, here, not the end result...

 

[BlackAeronaut]

looks like its trying to put in some shadows eminence plot but barely half as interesting

Nah. With Eminence in the Shadows, MC is just trying to be chuni as all fuck, not a villain. Except that all his chuni BS let's-LARP-a-shadow-organization-that-fights-evil turns out to be real. But he just thinks everyone is playing along with him, so he never fucking gets the memo that this shit is FOR-REAL-for-real until something like three-quarters of the way through the story.

This, here? Our man is actually trying to be a villain, and he realizes right away that his plots are getting Murphy'd to hell and back so they have the exact opposite effect. So he keeps trying to double-down on the evil villain chicanery, only to have it turned around on him.

Very different things.

Now, if they REALLY wanted to milk this for humor, they should have the God of this world jeering him from the sidelines like in Dorei kara no Kitai to Hyouka no sei de Sakushu dekinai no daga (or in English: Due to Their Appreciation and Expectations, I can't Exploit My Slaves). No joke, the god in this world is literally breaking the fourth wall to give the MC shit whenever she can. She went out of her way to find the most omega dude she can reincarnate, just to fuck with him.

 

[Lelouchezero]

Another trash being made. Please tell me if I'm wrong.

well the light novel spoiler actually makes it look like you're wrong in my opinion. The MC does seem to have awareness of his actions and their consequences... he's just steamrolled in spite of doing or not doing things. IE: "kicks a stone and it kills a bandit" or "doesn't kick the same stone and the bandit ends up tripping over it and gets captured" no matter what he does he "wins"

 

[Alex_79]

Somehow this goes like a plot quirk of Stephen Kings 11/22/63

Spoiler

character tries to alter history/his rep, but history/events fight back

 

[pip25]

But, uh... why would he want to be a villain? A "benevolent ruler", as he puts it, would have much better future prospects, right...?
