This manga is actually pretty good. It's a refreshing break from all the generic power-fantasy isekais.
It's like Arifureta, except from the side of the weaker heroes who end up suffering. Reminds me a bit of Hai to Gensou no Grimgar.
The first 10 chapters are a bit rough though, but it gets really good after chapter 20-25.

To those wondering about chapters 1-6, the old scanslators had a disagreement with mangadex and pulled their chapters. New scanslators will upload... eventually. You can read them on other aggregators.
If you are a stickler for exposition, highly rec reading the ln, this manga really more or less just refreshingly gives imagery for the ln. The manga is also almost caught up to the ln trans.

Okay... I'm not good with rape, unless the victim is given a good ending.
Is this manga suitable for me?

First few chapters are pretty shitty but then it actually gets kinda decent. Don’t get me wrong, it’s not amazing or anything, but it’s serviceable

The story becomes complete and utter nonsense starting in chapter 39.

Took a long break from this and coming back to find I can't stand the art. Everyone looks like they have foreheads x2 with dumb hair. Mouths and eyes look copy and paste. Sometimes the positioning and size of a character look off compared to their surroundings.

This series is average at best, so, it's understandable that they would eventually drop this series from being translated ever again.
I was actually hoping for a reread, but I guess that's impossible...
I was actually hoping for a reread, but I guess that's impossible...
As of 7/20, it seems to be possible to read up to Chapter 58...I think I noticed some translation complaints, but I didn't mind too much. I first read this probably around the initial translations; it was a story that really managed to grab me with the setting and...well mostly the monster girls.
The basic premise is "What if you were isekaied and your cheat power was to tame cute monster girls", but this story tackles it in a way I do not think I have seen any other isekai with the same premise attempt to. As opposed to going all in on ecchi or hentai scenes, or all in on the Monster Musume-style almost fully humanoid monster girls we've come to know, we get a menagerie of creatures that yes, are all girls, but are not necessarily "humanoid" per se. At least initially. They really lean into the inhumanity of these monsters and how they are humanized through their connection to both the protagonist and the people they encounter over the course of the story in a way that feels very satisfying and engaging.
Detailed Premise: Our story opens in the stereotypical "class gets transported into another world" type of trope, in this case in a forest, so akin to "Lonely Attack on Another World", although rather than a class it seems to have been an entire school. Unlike Lonely Attack on Another World, there is no "god", although there are "cheat skills"; however, only a small number of the students have them. They have built up a camp in the forest by working together, and after some time, an expedition party is being sent out to investigate. The mc is not a member of that party. He is a mob, and not a "Arifueta" or "Lonely Attack on Another World" type "mob", he is literally a mob. No powers, no training, and that's why when there is a betrayal by a part of the Expedition Party to coup the camp, he watches his friends get killed and gets his own ass thoroughly beat as he hides himself in a cave while bleeding to death. It is at this point that his "cheat skill" emerges; the power to link himself emotionally to monsters, in effect "taming" them (it's much more complicated than that but it would be spoilers)
I mentioned Arifueta and Lonely Attack on Another World. I did so because if you have read or watched those, you might note that getting your powerless ass beaten to near death (Arifueta) and a community of students falling apart due to infighting (Lonely Attack) are both things that you have seen before. At least in terms of light novel adaptation isekai, you have probably not seen them implemented like this. I might be hiding a bit too much but to go into spoiler territory, the protagonist's cheat skill works like this: (Mild Spoilers for explanation of powers)He has the power to create a sort of "empathic link" to monsters. Based on the initial chapters and chapters moving forward, it isn't infailable; it essentially only works on female monsters (disputable but let's roll with that) and even then it does not necessarily lead them to follow his orders without question. He also gains magical power from the monsters he is connected to, theoretically opening him up to truly getting cheat level power down the line but it has not happened yet and I get the feeling will probably not happen for a long while.
If you did not read that, all you need to know is that while the protagonist does have his "crawl out from the bowels of hell with the help of his new powers" moment. It does not have the same "Attack and destroy god" energy as Arifueta, nor does it have the sheer amount of absurd power boost of Arifueta. This story is not a power fantasy, which probably makes it kind of odd in the modern landscape of isekai, or at least translated isekai. This is a story about a teenage boy surviving a tragedy by sheer luck Ok that's kind of a lie but... and the many challenges he faces afterwards as a consequence of the choices he made. You may get complacent in the thought that the protagonist has a "cheat ability" and is now set for the rest of the story; that is not the case.
The protagonist will get his ass beat. His monsters will get their asses beat. This will happen not just at the beginning but later on. Fights in this story are less about aura farming or being some sort of overwhelming force and more about simply trying to survive. It's a story that can get a bit dark; There are scenes of rape or attempted rape, at least one instance of the organs spilling out of a named character's dead corpse, both the protagonist and other characters experiencing ptsd throughout the story; and because it is very early on, I will just say outright that the protagonist very edgily declares "I will no longer trust humanity". But if you like an isekai that isn't fully cynical on the goodness of humanity or approaching isekai from the "My previous life on Earth sucked so much, I'm glad to have been sent to this regressive hellhole!" angle; if you don't like overpowered cheat skills; if you don't like rpg menus or video game stats or being able to "level up", then you might like this story.
Now for a bit more of a critical review: I really like this. I am biased towards monster summoner/tamer stories, but this is the gold standard for me. Not this exact scenario, mind you, but the feelings and messaging this story has. It's a bit wish fulfillment with the harem stuff, but it has heart. As I said, the protagonist declares he will no longer trust humanity. Rather than approach this in the direction things such as this often do, where the protagonist loses all semblance of empathy and begins killing anyone who crosses his path on a bloody quest of revenge, well...he doesn't want revenge. His friends are already dead. His crush is already dead. The people who led to the death of his crush are dead soon after. He's just a mob. He didn't have the convinience of the big bad explaining their motivation for the betrayal, so he doesn't even know who they are. All that's left is to survive. The protagonist says this, but does he really mean it, or is he simply in shock? From almost right at the outset, this mindset is challenged; after all, just as there are bad people in this world (or this story), they aren't all bad. Throughout different chapters, we see that in large part, those who are good or neutral outweigh those who are bad; it is less that power inevitabiy corrupts and more that power reveals people for who they actually are, and that we can fail to notice these things before it is too late.
As for the monster girl harem; it is kept on the small side; the exact size depends on how you want to define it I would say if we're talking about genuine harem members, 3 monsters + 1 human girl as of right now.. Alongside them are a cast of other, less monster girl-like creatures that round out to a relatively tight party plus some other companions. Due to this, there is a lot of time spent on character development for these wonderful monster girls, all of which are quite charming in their own ways. Originally monsters and still retaining their monstrous forms, even as the mc tries to stray away from humanity, they learn to be human through the mc until over time, even their appearances change. It's lovely how you can see this gentle, gradual character development, as they fumble their way through understanding feelings they were not born with and how they change over the course of these emotional conflicts (not to mention physical conflict). Unlike other "monster girl harem" type stories, yes they all love the mc; no, they do not love them due to some kind of brainwashing, and no, they do not listen to the mc's every whim. Each is their own person, and although the link between them helps a lot in keeping their bond strong, they have their own separate desires.
Fights are brutal. Damage in this story wears off a lot less easily than in others, even with the benefit of healing magic. Some of that is physical, and some of that is psychological. The mc utilizes everything he has to fight these battles, whether against monsters, other students, or himself, and oftentimes it's not enough. Oftentimes he needs help, the help of his companions who, depite being a person who has lost his faith in humanity, has to rely on. Funnily enough, (Spoiler For A Character and Their Progression):The girl he saves near the beginning of the story, despite not having a cheat skill, ends up being his strongest ally when it comes to strategy and managing the monster girl party. This creates and interesting conflict with how he does not want to work with other people.. Some people would see this as a detriment, I see it as a bonus. It's nice how every fight is a struggle where yes, you know the mc will win, but oftentimes the ways he wins are not perfect finishes. He's faillable, as are the rest of his group. When another "cheat skill" classmate steps in, it is great how much menace, how much gravity they create because the mc simply has not had the same amount of time to develop his abilities, nor are his abilities geared in the same way as them. When those "cheat skill" classmates still get bodied regardless, still utterly lose a fight simply because they are human and get outsmarted, it feels incredibly refreshing in 2025.
I don't think I have it in me to write for much longer, so I'll end it off with how much I like the narrative. Reoccuring villains are a thing you almost never see in isekai, so it's awesome to see not just a reoccuring villain, but one who holds some level of flair, some level of intrigue, someone who is very much a foil to the protagonist. The fact that our story rather than taking us from Adventurer's Guild to Adventurer's Guild follows a much more natural narrative progression of meetings and partings; of consequences coming back to bite the mc. It's delicious how something foreshadowed can indeed come many chapters later, and not in the way you might have expected it to. The setting itself feels relatively unique; the monsters don't quite feel phoned in, and despite being isekai it never quite fits isekai tropes. Is the writing a bit mid sometimes? Yeah. Can the story have a tendency for entire chapters of characters just talking? Yes, and it can be amazing. It very much gives the feel of maybe not something that was fully planned from the outset, but something with a cohesive vision. Some of the newer chapters before translation stopped are extremely weird and trippy, and honestly I kind of like that. It's daring.
Final Thoughts: One of the themes of this story is "What does it mean to be a hero?" we see examples of heroism throughout, and different people's ideas of heroism. The protagonist himself, somewhere deep inside, wants to be a hero, even though he's not strong enough, or at least feels like he isn't. For people who feel like it has an edgy beginning, I would suggest going on some chapters further; it treats a lot of these scenes you would normally see in edgelord isekai with a sort of respect that you wouldn't normally see in manga. In the end, this is more of a story about healing than it is about burning yourself out for revenge. It's about almost breaking but doing your best to recover. And for that reason I give it... 8/10.
I have to dock points for the art in later chapters in particular and also the writing not being primo grade at all times, but I definitely disagree with others that this is average. It's not average. It's earnest and has a message. Not something you see much these days.
