The most perilous quarry. Upon meeting his demise just before retirement, the Earth's most skilled assassin finds himself face-to-face with a goddess. Her realm teeters on the brink of catastrophe, and she requires his unique expertise. Equipped with formidable new powers and decades of lethal experience, he embarks on his second life as Lugh, a young heir of the Tuatha Dé clan of assassins. His mission: to locate and eliminate the mightiest individual in this world—the hero.
When I started this I thought it would actually be a manga about setting up different assassinations in a fantasy world but it's nothing like that. However if you just look at it like a Tensei action adventure then it's one of the best out there.
Most of the characters are archetypes you've probably seen before however their execution is solid, consistent and generally pleasant. Despite the slow start I definitely enjoy seeing them interact with each other more and more as the story progresses.
Art is exceptional for characters and generally lacking for environments, however when they do actually put any effort into drawing the environment they do a good job. The action scenes look good and the movements flow well from panel to panel in a way that you can understand what is happening.
It is a very "wordy" manga in the sense that it feels like it has repurposed a lot of dialogue from the novel it is adapting instead of rewriting most of the longer dialogues and monologues. (This is something I am assuming as I have not touched any of the LN)
It manages tone very well, taking things seriously when it has to and fooling around and doing fun stuff to relax in-between.
Overall almost every part of it is handled in a very competent way with nothing standing out as "terrible". While it's not the best Seinen Isekai Tensei I've ever read it's definitely in the top 15 or maybe even top 10.
Note that I am only talking about the first 5 volumes of the manga (volume 6 has come out recently but I have not had the chance to get it yet). I have not read the novel or watched anime so I don't have any insights from those.
Its the same autor of "Redo of Healer" there is rape on minors (from 8-14 years during 2 years) dont let the whole "ezio MC" get you this is not gonna end good go check some spoilers from the novel, i don't even think this gonna get too much chapters
In three chapters he effortlessly uses magic to create rifles and cannons. Another isekai to the trash bin
