Jesus, there is a lot of new 'banised from the party underdog turn into the strongest' story lately.
Some are decent many are the same(seriously why so many of them are similar? Did all japanese author go to the same prostitute?) and almost all of them are adapted from webnovel, that is practically a self insert. The slop economy is everywhere. I am sure as hell this gonna go into popular new titles page.
There must be a social commentary you can make by observing why this kind of story is written by so many artist and why so it's so popular
Waiting for a YouTuber to make a video titled 'banished story is the new isekai' or some shit

Seems like it might be an interesting story, we'll see how it goes.

As far as the translations go, they seem mostly fine, but are definitely awkward. Especially around pronouns or when referring to other characters, such as when the MC and the nun in the orphanage were talking. I.E., why was it translated as if Magic Maximum belonged to the nun? Speaking of, what was the original text on that skill? Was it in Kanji? Katakana? If it was Katakana in that specific order, fine, better to leave it as is for accuracy. Otherwise, it would flow better as "Maximum Magic"

Honestly, with the choice of words and their order in the translation, it feels like a tool like Google Translate was used on this. The problem with things like that, is they miss a lot of nuance in text, like context with subjects and verbs, as well as certain common phrases and idioms.

Definitely need someone to go over the grammar with a fine-tooth comb, just to improve the reading experience of the chapters.

It's basically an Isekai equivalent for getting fired from a job because of under-performance. But since it's Isekai setting, they instead go for banished since saying "you are fired" might not sit well with many readers (well, in real life people who get fired from jobs do end up getting treated as being banished from society, atleast in Asian region, because losing job is seen as a bad character representation).

But unlike real life were one doesn't get to learn about their real talent as there is no appraisal method, and majority of people live their life under-appreciated or under-achieved.
In these Isekai setting they instead just go with mistaking skill ability as people don't fully understand it because of complex issue.

Translator-san, you are hurdling ahead without paying any attention to people referring to themselves and to second persons. Swapping “I”/“my”/“me”/“mine” for “you”/“your”/“you”/“yours” and vice versa is pretty bad.

Holy shit that makes so much sense, that explain why there is so much of it and why it's so popular.
I honestly never thought of that, thanks for the enlightenment

I'm confused.
In the manga synopsis, it said MC got Maximum Magic after protecting his friends.

But here, he got the skill after he was on the verge of death.

I am so sorry, there is only one true paper master in any world, isekai or not and their name is ...

yeah as others have pointed out this is clearly unchecked mtl
page 3 has the "paper master" skill tled as both "paper wielder" and "paper user" which made me doubt the skill is even called paper master in the first place
and yeah it's not "紙使い" aka paper user, the manga description is also wrong
only bringing this one up because I would have a page long message if I went over every mistake in the tl

to the editor/ts/qc the ts looks fine yeah but it's pointless if the text is just barely comprehensible

It's really strange in how in most to all banished mangas that the MC powers grow after they are kicked from their party. Like they didn't have years to understand their abilities better

Synopsis aren't always accurate, because they aren't always written/translated properly.
