I keep coming back to this manga because of the thighs but then I'm frustrated by how shitty it is...

The thighs are glorious though.

Sol Press licensed the novel. Not sure if I should be happy, or throw curses. I mean, I'm glad the novel is licensed, but, knowing Sol, will the English release be stuck in eternal limbo?...

@Liche17100 nah MC is a "IDIOT" it just his sister and friend just to much of "GENIUS" that all stupid thing he said end up work
i mean MC kinda said in past to her sister that a "WITCH" should be able to person into frog, this kinda absurd since MC sister in fact not witch but magician, but for odd reason she able to pull it off but after so much of training and MC only say "as expected of my sister" without knowing how hard she train it, she also have many unreasonable magic that from perspective normal magician all of it kinda absurd and all of them can be attributed to MC mad rambling
for sword dude
it pretty much more idiotic from what he say to his sister, MC pretty much just spouting random thing like in one chapter where the sword dude met MC again after while, he somehow saw MC lazing around in tatami mats in onsen inn and asked what he doing only for MC say he training to become one with earth and the sword idiot believe him
@Arin-san exactly as you said, eminence in shadow at last kinda little entertaining since Cid kinda op despite the story kinda eh, this unless you like to see how side character suffer(it more than suffering since some of them legit life threatening situation to disaster level situation) because MC whim then its your manga

I much prefer an in-over-his-head weakling who has to pull some new bullshit out of his ass to solve every problem that he causes over a generic super-strong cool guy protagonist where you know exactly how every encounter is going to end before it starts.

All the shitty power fantasy isekai are making people forget that flawed characters make for better stories since they actually have room to grow and have, y'know, character development, instead of "I was cool and strong and now I'm cooler and stronger" development.

It's also remarkable to me that everyone's shitting on this guy and predicting that the entire story is just gonna be about him being an asshole when we've barely figured out what's going on and he's just now figured out how badly he fucked up and is about to go do something to solve his problem in person. Sure, he might be too late, but he's not stupid on purpose.
People eat Overlord up because it has a fake-it-till-you-make-it protagonist supported by a cast of super cool strong characters who buy into his bullshit, but then you have a protagonist like this who's more blatantly incompetent and doesn't try to hide it as much, which makes for a more interesting cast since some characters buy his bullshit and some of them know he's not cut out for the job, but everyone goes "waaah I don't like him because he's an asshole."

Protagonists don't have to be likeable, they don't all have to be morally perfect flawless blank slates for you to self-insert into. I'm way more interested in seeing the direction this story takes, in seeing if this guy gains more confidence in himself or becomes a better leader or turns into a useless NEET, than I am in seeing how cheat skill #42069 gets abused to get someone a harem. Sure, this fucker's probably gonna solve all his problems by spamming magic items since artifact use seems to be his unique special skill or something, but at least he has a shitty personality to fix while he does it.

I like the Main character. At least, in the context of isekai. So many "I'M ACTUALLY REALLY STRONG" and this guy literally just wants to chill. But reading through chapter 2, both parts and the pacing just feels... wonky. It doesn't feel natural, or normal, I guess. Makes it hard for me to read simply by structure of writing.

@Anonyan Dude, I hate overpowered self-insert isekai protagonists too, but let's not pretend this is the only alternative or that just not being that automatically makes this good. The problem with this manga is that you have a protagonist who is largely incompetent but everything he does somehow works out anyway due to sheer plot armor. It's not believable, it's not clever, it's not good writing, and it's not even a new idea. You compare it to Overlord but the protagonist there is at least making an effort while this one seems to be just completely bungling his way to success.

As far as character development goes, maybe I'm wrong but I'm not anticipating much. What incentive is there for the protagonist to grow when he apparently does everything perfectly already through dumb luck?

What I'm saying is that it's way too early in the story to tell if "everything he does somehow works out anyway due to sheer plot armor," he's hardly even done anything yet. We're only seven chapters in, we're still in the exact same introductory event, and everyone's just shitting on this dude because he's unlikable and incompetent.
Yeah, the story could end up being shit, but it's way too early to call it considering he's had zero chances to have any character development so far. Which, as I've said, seems more likely for him than it does for a lot of other characters who never have any. He doesn't do everything perfectly through dumb luck, so far he's fucked up everything and is just now on his way to try and fix it, and there's exactly one character who thinks he's secretly cool and smart and good.

Don't get me wrong, this could totally end up being an absolute garbage manga, but it still has more potential than most where the protagonist starts out hitting a brick wall. If you're not interested because you think he's going to be bumbling and useless and magically solve everything anyway, then I think it's a little premature to say that but I get it. People who hate the manga just because the protagonist is unlikable and not a super cool perfect nice guy, though, have objectively wrong opinions REEEEE.

I want to put my face between her thighs

I love how the covers go from Rokudenashi mediocre MC-ness to straight WE KNOW WHY YOU'RE HERE AND WE'RE NOT AFRAID TO ADMIT IT.

Is there a single genre/medium out there with lower standards for writing than light novels?

i mean the idea is good, but the casting and situations actually used in the manga makes it a manga that relies on putting the mc into increasingly frequent and more awkward moments for content

My god the story is so TERRIBLE....pacing is even worse. I couldn't finish chapter 3 when I got bombarded with walls of texts......
Author should drop this and re think/re work this entirely...Even the translator didn't understand jack shit about what's happening in this manga.

@Zay- Well, the japanese are good at art,bad at story.
To be honest the koreans do lightyears better in regard of story and art!
Todays japanese mangakas are very low effort with no motivation what so ever. Just doing the same copy&paste the next guy makes.
Sure the koreans and chinese do that as well, but by far not as severely as the japanese.

art is good
story is not so good

but basically 80% of mangas with good art have shit plot :/
would be nice if they polished their writing skills too

Seems like a flip flop version of Kage no Jitsuryokusha ni Naritakute but this one is complete shit!
