This manga is so good idk why but everytime i read the new release it heals my heart. It's just so satisfying to see his village prosper and his family expand.

like Isekai Smartphone
just empty wish fulfilment
In my opinion, there is a major difference.

Smartphone guy just breaks every rule of magic in-universe so he can do just about anything. Basically, everybody else in his team is irrelevant, unless there is a large scale conflict where numbers are needed. In normal situations, anything anyone can do, be it magical or physical activity, he can do better. And he doesn't even need to train for it. Just mention a name and rough explanation of a spell and he can do it. The princess does bring political skills to the table, but that's about it.

Here, the MC is far from omnipotent. He can do farming and a bit of crafting, and he brings a few new ideas here and there. (Fighting too if it really comes to it, but it's more because of the almighty tool than his own skills. Take it out of the equation and he's a sturdy but otherwise standard human.) He doesn't have all the skills required to implement his ideas, and the villagers bring more than numbers to the table. They come as alchemists, engineers, couriers and more.

Both are pretty much wish-fulfillment, but this one is way more interesting because every member of the cast counts. New additions are not just "one more waifu" (though there is a bit of this in the early chapters), they are actual characters who expand the village in meaningful ways.

it still reminds me of my grandad discussing plans to make another rhubarb garden next to his pumpkins

like reading an engineering manual

Just finished re-reading all the chapters available to date. Still a treat.
Simple, wholesome, enjoyable.

As vague as how the "adultery" goes, this gives a really good read for anyone nerding about farming life in general, with a hint of otherworldly worldbuilding. At least with the anime and webnovel, there will still be more different perspectives not shown in manga. This is literally the only manga that I just can't get bored rereading over and over again.

I was wondering about this.
6 pages a month is too god damned slow.
Is the team at LHTranslation super busy right now? It seems like this series has quite a few raw chapters already released. They used to drop a translated chapter every couple weeks.

With how far developed his village is by chapter 35 alone, I really wonder how the heck the author has cranked out another 200+ more chapters of this. I get some will find this to be their "brain: off" manga to read, but it's been so rushed that unless it's a full-on Tokyo skyline by chapter 200, I don't know what the heck the author can throw in here that will not have already been played to death by chapter 50. There's gotta be something more than MC going "aw crap, looks like I gotta make more farmland/housing/product/trade connection/amenities to keep up with every place around me sending women to procreate with me, despite it being against my will 99% of the time".

I'll keep at it in hope there's something that'll change my mind, but this manga just seems like an unbribed movie critic watching the newest D*sn*y live-adaptation of an old movie, that shoed-in some unnecessary emphasis on a political point that doesn't make sense being in the film.

I wasn't sure whether to take a look at this or not. You make it sound worth a read, so thanks for the reviewish comment.
