Yet another manga that drags things out in order to end volumes on contrived cliff-hangers.

Well I'm ready to say this is one of the worse copy paste "banishment" stories.
Even if there is an actual story here (prb wont be), as soon as combat happens story is going to be interrupted for months every time.
Plot: The old MC self sacrifices for idiot reasons when nobody even asked him to (copy paste from billion others).
Power: MC is mega genius blabla but because "reasons" he is looked down on by random fuckers (copy paste from billion others).
Combat: Takes a billion chapters of "fighting" to get anywhere. MC is not even responsible for any tactics. Things that happen are repeatedly shown as fake or not important because actually didn't hurt much or illusions. Everything is precog planned by some random guy that showed up from basically nowhere (worse than copy paste).
Character interactions: "I showed up RIGHT ON TIME even though I could not have known", "If only you talked about it" and "I had to because bullshit reason" (copy paste from billion others).
Art: It's fine for just adding visuals to the story but nothing special.

Story is aight, though chapters are dragged out (as previously mentioned). Overall a good generic isekai.
I'd recommend waiting for more chapters (I'm writing as of chap. 18). A lot of cliff hangers.

Story's great
But the drag for fuck sake is too much, a fight for 10 chapter could've ended in 3 or 5, not to mention the constant flashback on every single thing they did.
The delivery is very rushed to the point where I read this just for the sake of completing this

normally im rather understanding of stories like these since they have a history of being put down they are going to have some elf-esteem issues. but thats under the expectation they dont spam the self-depreciation, like this story does, and that MC doesnt have past achievements that should be preventing self-depreciation from being a thing, once again like this story does.

Trash that has the hint of spice. The somewhat compelling drama that pushes the story forward would be worth it... If the fights didn't drag for so long, or actually had the mechanics properly explained so you could follow along.
As is, 80% of the time feels wasted because either our protagonists don't know how to beat the enemy (and just come up with bullshit we weren't even told about), or because they are preparing to use a move we weren't made aware of but they do know will work, and it does flawlessly. At most, the moves that are self-sacrificial, or the few fights were we get a good understanding of what's happening at all times, at least manage to raise SOME semblance of tension during those boringly long stretches of time.
