I thought he is banging his slaves, or was this only in WN?
Don't know about the WN but he completely rejected one of the slaves (believe it was the dark elf) when she tried to offer up herself as a thank you for helping her people. And honestly from how he acts, unless the girls force themselves on him he won't act upon advances. He's perverted in thoughts but not in actions.

I always get annoyed when they slap a harem tag on something just because it's got multiple women in it, even when there's no romantic feelings between the MC and them (or the MC is only obviously interested in one).

Save that tag for when the MC wants multiple partners, and they are receptive to that interest.
I feel ya. Another tag that pisses me off is the Erotica vs Suggestive tag.
There are some manga on this site that are tagged as Erotica but the actual content fits within the Suggestive tag (you see some nudity and panty flashes but no actually sexual situations). And vice versa though on a lesser scale (manga that's close to being softcore H but is only tagged suggestive).

That's another one that's pretty bad, yeah. While I don't have to worry about anyone seeing what I am reading, I don't always want a series that's heavy on sex. Sometimes you just want something light and fluffy that you can recommend to your less degenerate friends (or sometimes you're out looking for stuff for that special circle of aficionados).

Loli is also a pretty bad one. I see that one slapped pretty liberally onto series where their only offense is having a kid doing normal kid things. Novelupdates tends to be better in that regard, so when possible I check their tags as well.

If we are playing the Isekai bingo, they missed the "local currency equals 100 yen" one

Just grab your invincible ferry and ram it through the enemy fleet, it's larger, faster and stronger than anything they will have access to. and if you really wanted to i'm sure the girl would gladly fire off some magic and arrows to make it even more one sided.
Yeap, and since it fits a sizable contingent of soldiers as well he can also bring along some reinforcements against the land side of the siege.

To be fair, that's how all people think when it comes to using a new currency they're not used to. Take whatever seems equivalent to what they are used to and round it to something easy to calculate.

Though most of the time you can't even translate values since it's not a matter of scale. You're comparing to a pre-industrial society, so some things will be far cheaper and some won't even be available outside royalty due to cost.

It's a bit weird when it comes when you have Ines, since she's openly flirting with him without the obligation behind it like Felicia (which in all honesty was right of him to reject). It also felt like early chapters kind of swept it under the rug and ignored what they actually did, but with the implication of "something".

To be fair, anyone who does that when they are NOT converting their own currency to a new currency is pretty much doing an act of idiocy due to what you yourself said. For instance, once I started buying things internationally I would do conversions like this because it directly affected my spending power. If I was transported to a new world, I wouldn't even think to convert it into my country's currency because it neither effect my spending power or give me an insight on their economy. It's literally a wasted effort.

There are a few, and I do mean few, manga out there where the MC's money is converted into whatever world's currency and vise versa so it's important for the MC to know that conversion rate.....but most of the time, it's simply exposition for the audience.

Something better for the MC to think about is "I was given x amount of coin for doing y and z costs this much." which some manga do in fact do correctly.

Most of the time the conversion isn't brought up other than the first time. At that time, it might be an idea just to get an appreciation for the rough value. Like, does one gold coin buy a piece of bread, a day at an inn, or a horse? Once you get past that, then you can learn more specific things like what the price of meat is compared to vegetables and fruit, and what things you can or can't buy easily.

It's like a lot of detail that's brought up in the beginning during the more exposition heavy part of the story. Most of it becomes more or less irrelevant after it's mentioned. It's like the guild rank pyramid that always show up. Despite how important ranks are supposed to be, it's surprising how often they stop matter soon into the story. Just like those money conversions.

Thank you, a lot of good examples to basically say "You are correct, sir!". Hopefully, more people catch on and this whole "1 coin = 1 yen" thing disappear. As I said before, that line of thinking is more for the readers and less a thing the characters should even be worried about with the exclusion of the exceptions I listed before.

Everyone's thinking to just plow through with the ferry, but where's the fun in that. He could roll up in the rowboat or inflatable raft and eject elite fighters right onto the capitol ship, or abuse the impenetrable barrier to be propelled through the ships at high speeds right at the waterline. He might even be able to just steal away with the ships by sticking one of his ships underneath and unsummoning it, similar to how he transported all the pepper and provisions.

It's time for the imperial Japanese Navy to rise in Isekai!
Just imagine a behemoth like the IJN Yamato making its way to the blockage and flattening everything

Probably cause taggers are learning. Don't tag it harem unless the MC actively accepts it, otherwise you only have a group of girls who have feelings for a guy that will never act upon it.
Implying any of these girls have any romantic interest in him.

... I'm going to give Creator God the benefit of the doubt this one time and hope that this was already in motion before the last time they talked. I'm hopeful that this isn't just new manipulation on God's part.

I'll write it again:
Stop deleting text ouside the boxes!

Just one of many examples this chapter:
Page 4 Iness saying: "Yeeeeees!" (Haaaaaaaai!) In background. Deleted.

Each and every chapter content gets deleted even self explaining one that only needs to stay there... and yet you delete it...

@_Truck-kun_ Please stop that redrawer/cleaner from doing this...
