One thing I have to say is that the romance tag is quite misleading...30 chapters in and we don't even get a blush from Liz to Miyabi, let alone any progress on the personal level. Maybe they'll have that moment down the line? At the moment they only seem like normal friends to me: Liz just see Miyabi as a teammate and vice-versa, and Miyabi sees Liz as someone much younger than him and not a target for romance.

Yeah Miyabi treats Liz more like a daughter than a love interest. Hell, that's how he treats most of the girls.

I am finding this one to be delightful. It doesn't appear deep at first but if you actually look at what the characters are saying and thinking, they clearly have their own perspectives and motivations that set this apart from the usual garbage we get in isekai.

The main character is a pretty simple guy and doesn't need all the power or resources that usually turn this sort of story into a powercreep mess where they take on entire armies solo or some bs. He literally just needs people to ask him to solve a problem and he can have fun figuring out how to do it within the bounds of what his skillset can do. Even better when he does take steps to improve his capabilities.

The female lead has a confidence problem, which is normally concerning for these sorts of things because it usually involves a lot of simping for MC. There is an element of her having an inferiority complex regarding his OP abilities but it's a little refreshing that this is a genuine character trait that goes back to her 'genetics' (if inherited class and quality are indeed genetic) and informs the kind of person she has always been and how she interacts with characters OTHER than the MC. More importantly, we have hope that she will be able to find her own way rather than 100% depending on MC to develop a sense of self-worth. Her desire to be with him isn't based on a complete dependence on him, but that they both get joy and value from helping and being around eachother.

Putting together all the other characters, I am relatively satisfied with how their motivations tie into their response and interactions with MC and FL. They all have their own relationships and it doesn't get completely overshadowed by how insane MC's abilities are for what they're used to. I hesitate to use the word 'realistic' but the politics and self-interest on display make at least as much sense as the people who have the usual 'make the world a better place' mentality that tends to drown out these sorts of stories where money and resources are no object.

Trains? 🤣
Why not an airship or a damn plane?
This is a good question - while I lack expertise in the subject I think trains actually make plenty more sense even in the real world but especially in the context of an isekai. The research side of things will surely be more in line with what they already know and the industries needed to replicate it on scale should adapt much faster than what you would need to invent an airship and the industries to support it. I would venture that nations in the real world would be also more economical using high speed rail over aircraft.

There certainly are times where flying makes more sense, but if what you want is simply getting from one city to another in a commute-style trip then the limitation of laying and maintaining tracks is a non-issue.
