It kinda bugs me when isekai-type manga start with some kind of injustice or unresolved conflict in "our world". It's like, in our world, the proper response for victims of bullying is just to lay there and take it (and even die, if it so happens), and any kind of retribution, resolution, or revenge can only be had in the consequences-free "other world"? And even if that's not the point, it still leaves the readers with a sense of unresolved tension, with the half-baked premise set up in the first few pages never taken to a conclusion.

I dunno, I've always taken some kind of issue with isekai premises. We'll see where this goes.

What do you think of the translation?
You're asking about quality or accuracy, cuz I can barely read the japanese languages lol.

But the quality is good, and it's nice to the eyes, better than other TL works where the text overlaps with the bubble when it's not intended to.

Anyway, thanks for the TL!

This story seems promising, looking forward to it.

That’s actually how it works in real life. If you report the behavior, they lie and their friends back them up and you get in trouble for lying. If you fight back, they say you started it and they were just minding their own business, and again, you get in trouble. Try explaining to authority figures that you are the victim, and it ends up being your word versus multiple other people’s word (the bully gang or even just their friends who egged them on). Most targets of bullying eventually end up accepting that there’s nothing they can do about it (this is also the reason bullies target the quiet, shy, nice kids, easy targets). I spent K-12 and college experiencing this first hand.

This isn't real life. This is a manga.
