heres my review for the first chap
Art: 7.5/10, is good
Story: 7.2, its slightly above average, what ever happened to the so called "hero" (man i cant judge a story by 1 chap, gimme more so i can edit it)
Overall: 7.3/10, has potential to be good, hope it doesnt fuck up

Given there’s only 3 issues, this effectively isn’t worth getting into

This one is unexpectedly enjoyable. The setting isn't particularly deep, but it's got spirit.

Current review after reading all available chapters (18)
It's decent. Him coming out of retirement is fun and all but everything just seems so killed. Like I get it, humanity has gotten stronger, but demons shouldn't of gotten that much weaker.

As of chapter 3, this story went from 7/10 to 2/10 for me.
I didn't expect much, but I at least wanted some things to be fairly obvious: The demons are "evil", the humans were / are oppressed by them.
I expected a lot of comedy, and the story to not be that serious, but I expected something like Helck -- where 90% of the time, the manga is comical and very much not serious -- but underneath all that, a fairly thick and tragic plot hides underneath, that pops up here and there. You actually have something to chew on.
As of chapter 4, that proven to not be the case.
....So, yeah. This is a mid story, shot dead in the water.

The hero was revealed to be drinking buddies with the demon-lord, and was on such good terms, he happily offered his daughter to merry him if he'd ever beat him. This is not the barbarian-mindset of: "you're so strong, I'll choose you to continue my bloodline", but: "haha hero my friend, have my daughter!" sort of shounen nonsense.
Further more, said daughter is now intentionally creating monsters to kill people, that only the hero can defeat (by gaming their "weaknesses" to adhere to the MC's strong points), since she's into him as "the hero".
And what does the hero say in response to such a psychotic offer?
"Haha whatever, anyway..."
So while chapters 1-3 actually tried to emphasize serious talking-points, like how Real People Are Suffering, and how harsh the passage of time is --- it normalizes around not treating major elephants in the room seriously, but just going with it, because funny.
I personally really don't find it fun to read up a story, about a guy and a girl who worships the hero, in their own way, and do all sorts of trouble as they try to prompt him up as The Hero. It's a nice setup, but it cannot be the whole point of the story.

I think i agree with this take overall, just not with the rating, and i'd say this is still worth reading in spite of all that.
It was quite the whiplash and yea that scene finished setting the tone for the manga and you don't like it. But i'll still say it's an above average manga considering what we get on modern fantasy manga and isekais. If this is a 2/10 to you then the average trope ridden isekai slop must be like a 0.5/10 or something.
