Finally caught up.
Hmm... I say the series is just ok so far. For someone who's the "weakest" combat class, I think Noel is fighting a bit too often. He's also a massive asshole out of necessity, but I can't say I like the guy that much. Everything also seem to be going too well for him. Selling his old partymates to slavery is also a bit much IMO, but it makes sense to recoup his (stolen) loses, and I think it actually happened in the past so I'm ok with it. At least he's not OP physically and uses/outwits people most of the time, and I respect that even if he's not the physically strongest, he works out regularly to be able to fight and keep himself safe during battle. I'm not sure if the LN covered it, but I wish it showed how he became this ruthless.
Meanwhile, the other party member's arcs are basically over so they're not interesting anymore, but they were pretty good while their stories weren't over yet.
