Tsuihousareta Meika no Chounan – Baka ni Sareta Hazure Skill de Saikyou e to Nobori Tsumeru

Hey, what a novel idea! The son/daughter of a nobel family is banished for having an assigned skilled/profession regarded as shameful, but then proves to be the Strongest of All! Woot!

Eventually we will see a comedic manga in which the son/daughter of a nobel fakes being strong after receiving an assigned skill/profession held in high esteem that is actually pretty worthless. Fans will write many words about how clever the idea is.

I hope it doesn't go "the this profession is secretly OP." The idea that God would bestow useless jobs is so stupid. I kinda wish there was a story concept that explored how a God if he did bestow jobs that he saw them all equally. The idea that a farmer is useless is either a projection by the author or it comes from video game logic. Farmers grow the goddam food. Reminds me of another isekai were the alchemist was considered useless. Alchemy is literally proto chemistry and a chemist can change the goddam world.

Agreed entirely. Fact society hasn't adapted to the fact professions are effectively "gacha" shows JP logic at its finest. Poor worldbuilding by author. That might suit a short-form story; but not any sort of serious medium.

Hence why I think the Manga may fall short. In WN writing, low-investment, low-worldbuilding -- that might fly. But not once you have to draw out the rest of the world (such as in Manga/Film) -- it falls apart as soon as you take a step outside the bounds of the page.

The WN is complete, and fully translated in English. Lot of timeskips, a lot of plot armor, a lot of "convenient" resolutions. So far the most advanced concept I've seen discussed is rudementary "binary search". I'm skimming the translated WN right now; hoping it gets better.

Yes, there is a loli. (Sort-of. She's on the cover.)

Edit: As a followup, I read about 60 chapters in. Best way I can describe it without spoilering is:

1. Novel start is typical JP WN "crash the plane as hard into the ground as quickly as possible to build a hook"
   (i.e. worldbuilding is shallow, since it starts on a shallow premise, to cram as much drama as quickly as possible)
2. MC is actually a pretty vindictive a-hole, which is actually kind of nice
3. There are a lot of elements which may not translate well to manga format
   (i.e. once you get off the page, things tend to fall apart slightly)
4. His allies are off-screen competent as opposed to typical JP WN off-screen incompetent without MC.
   (Which is actually really rare, and appreciated. They don't have to have MC explain 'delicious white rice'.)
5. There are 'food chapters'.

Seems pretty mid, but I'll give most things a shot.

Some of the time the justification is valid tho. Like, imagine a world FILLED with monsters, demons and hazards. In such a world, many can Plough, plant and grow food but not everyone can cut clear a dragon with an air slash. Also prestige: Everyone would definitely be grateful if you were able to grow vegetables quicker or make them abundant, but no one would fear you, most nobles would also not respect someone who spend their time doing a job deemed "below them".

There is also the understanding and culture. For example, there was a manga where someone was an alchemist, a job that as you said "can change the goddam world", but in that world there were self-proclaimed alchemists before, and they were all fakes. For that reason no one believed him at first, until he proved that his skill and job were the real deal. Or another were the person was a necromancer, but that was considered a taboo (and also gross) so they got expelled and banished, even though the profession was very useful and not chosen by the character.

That being said, I do like your concept. It would be pretty funny to see the reaction of a God after finding that he created a perfect system where everyone were bestowed powers to balance each other and provide abundance, peace and prosperity - but failing miserably with people creating castes, enslaving their alikes and ultimately dooming themselves.

I forgot I wrote

Forgot I wrote this summary. I read the entire WN to the end. What I wrote above at Ch. 60 was about right.
The WN was interesting, but towards end I was reading just to finish. It had an ending, but took shortcuts getting there.
(This applies to WN only, manga/LN are unknown. Manga adaptations gets a pass as long as they have cute heroines/good art.)

The worldbuilding did progress slightly, there are some plot elements author veered back on an expanded.
But other elements were completely abandoned. For example: slavery.

The author made a huge point at 75% mark about MC having goals on resolving that system.
Yet at 100% mark, author completely dropped the ball. And literally put "and then MC did something about it" in epilogue.

That's what stuck out to me about this story...
...some promising elements, but abridged worldbuilding and abandoned plot threads.

Maybe the manga adaptation will act as a better 2nd stage editorial review process. And clean up that mess.

It is amazing how they capable to produce such horrible content and call it “manga”. Cant believe Japanese people pay real money to read such trash, even blank paper will be more valuable.

 

[OmnipotentCheese]

Burnable trash.
