Fun and fairly unique idea at least. Personally I don't have much of an attachment to magical girl or Kamen raider genre so maybe I'm just not the audience, but my main problem is I just don't enjoy the writing style. It's heavily reliant on POVs that are so obnoxious to read. The MC over explains every little thing that goes through his mind in high stress situations in a way no one actually would.

"Oh they think I'm a villain what should I do my life is over! So over! Should I move to the countryside and grow rice? No I can't do that I don't know how to grow rice!"

And repeats such nonsensical dialogue 6-7 times per chapter while his life is in danger. I don't find this kind of writing style enjoyable personally, it feels pointless and just an excuse to add words to a chapter through useless rambling.

Secondly this novel is incredibly reliant on the lowest level of misunderstandings. So many things that could at least be mitigated with a sentence from MC are not. Instead he constantly uses the most obscure language of all time to be misunderstood. Classic device for some real infuriating writing.

Other than that, there's nothing else bad in this novel imo. World building is good, the general plot progression feels satisfying and character motivations are good for the most part (as long as you buy into the s*upidity of the missunderstaings).

Basically I would say try it. If the problems I mentioned don't resonate with you for the first 10 chapters I think you'll enjoy it.

This story took me on a wild roller coaster ride! Loved it! You know an author has amazing writing skills when you end up hating the main characters then crying with and for them!

Great book but have not finished.  Spent too much already could have purchased 2 books from a bookstore.

I enjoyed the story line but felt editing could have been done better.  Parts of the story seemed rushed and there were parts were drawn out without much character development.  With an average of 27 coins per chapter, this book is easily one of the more expensive ones I've read.
