Why does this chapter feel so bad? Like the flow is rather wonky or something
To anyone curious: it is currently on chapter 9. The writing gets worse and it has lots of inconsistencies / plot issues. If this was re-done it could be a great story.
It goes from 0 to 100 so fast, feels like the author is just rushing through the story on parts that should take longer and that will make the story hard to continue.
I hope they drop and redo it.

Story is weird and just jumping from point to point with no consistency.
On a side note, are we naming Kingdoms after Pokemon now?

I see that the cheat code management system will avoid giving him the greatest of cheat powers.

p24: "he has good fighting posture"
yes, he's doing a great job protecting the sword with his bare, left arm...

I like that the princess is aware of herself; she knows she is in a safe-zone (for the most part), where she can be treated as the undercover lady she is... but she also knows when to haul out the "I'm a Princess!"-act, if necessary. Best of all, she even knows when to NOT haul it out.
So, that's kinda nice; enjoying that change of pace in this otherwise very predictable plot.
Hell, this plot is so predictable, and so trope-driven, that I didn't even consider the pacing (which is wild!); I just understood that this would be the "join the guild by beating the local tough guy" episode that every other identical story has in it.
I knew that this was "that" episode, so I didn't really even question the wild pacing and inconsistencies.
What glorious trash!
10/10 for "Victory Pose," I bet!
Great way to get your arm cut up, unless that's some kind of wild baiting technique (which it's not).
I will say this, though:

He has a great anime stance; shitty fighting stance, but for posing...?

Most modern studies of Japanese military history have concluded that many-to-most of Japan's internal wars/struggles were conducted in a way that we would consider to be.... Highly Ritualized, to say the least.
And by "Highly Ritualized," I definitely mean things like a general standing within arrow range, making a huge speech at the enemy; and individuals seeking out specific people on the other side, whilst ignoring (and being ignored by) putative "enemies," while they go look for the one guy they have to fight; not to mention multiple accounts of the defeated group not simply accepting their mass-beheadings, but actually lining up for their turn (it would almost be a Monty Python skit!)...!
It makes sense; the case of Japan, as the culture of an island that often did not have food available, has observably been a culture of willing self-sacrifice for the greater collective good for over 2000 years. And that's as in "good for that society," not righteousness of action; first, I'm not a total weeb, and second, it wouldn't be true.
But; the cultural belief in "a willingness to sacrifice everything, up to and including one's own life," just for a chance at success is literally a basic Japanese proverb for how to live life.
All of which to say that if that is your guiding principle, your life philosophy...? Well, you will certainly approach something like "war" and/or "combat" in a completely different manner; even of it's just "looking cool" at the expense of your own safety when your life may be on the line.
Anyway, TL;DR
Japanese military history is literally CosPlay and LARPing

Thank you for coming to my TED talk.
