Chapter 5- This story triggered a pet peeve of mine no matter how many times a person reincarnated/isekais, and knows all the sword skills in the world, they still won't have the body to keep up. The body of a 5 y/o is underdeveloped and doesn't have the anatomy to overpower a healthy trained 20 y/o knight. What this tells me about the story, is that it will purposefully ignore facts and logic, just show power. If you ask me it's better to make a weak 5 y/o overpower a trained knight with cunning and deceit to show how the protag thinks and acts rather than saying, "Look! OP!OP!!!1!"

As for the characters, they are interesting. They have characteristics, but they just serve the plot and don't have a motivation of their own other than acting according to their personalities/roles. Not bad, not enjoyable for me.

As for the world-building, it seems to have been blatantly ignored, but whatever. The town where the next plot point is and where the story originally starts is not even mentioned.

As for the plot, ehh- cool people doing cool things with cool fighting I guess. Not my thing so I'll give it a 4/5 since that's the average, I don't actually like the novel but I would be biased otherwise, which is not fair.
