This is a nice, slice of life-y type adventure with a touch of harem. I rated it 5 stars because its chillness fits my taste, but you might consider it more of a 4 stars overall. The MC is definitely OP, but in a growth type of way rather than powers right off the bat, and he spends most of his time conducting experiments to suppress his demon bloodline and increase his card deck. The main story's plot hadn't been addressed a whole lot as far as I've gotten, but it's been handled pretty well as far as it has gotten. I liked the interactions between the MC and his friends and Spoiler
and I agree with Ryuubi that the interactions with his intelligent monsters were nice.
[collapse] I want to emphasize that IF YOU DON'T LIKE HEARING ABOUT THE MC'S EXPERIMENTS OR HOW HE GETS HIS CARDS AND MONSTERS IN DETAIL, THIS IS NOT FOR YOU. I feel that that is probably the reason for most of the low ratings on here. Don't buy into the description though. It's a slow-life/slice-of-life type novel, so although there are some exciting moments, the majority of it is pretty chill school life stuff and his experiments and experiences. The blend of lots of different elements from stuff like Yuigoh and Harry Potter is done remarkably well, so try not to be too put off by it if it sounds like a mess. I really enjoyed it as a chill slow school life with some adventure parts and experiments and a pinch of harem to taste.
