Well... First of all if you are here after watching the anime it's best to start reading from v3ch1 (start of Sin of sloth arc) Why ? Because there is a huge difference between the anime and novel And if you are a Rem fan you should 100% read the side stories.. Now about the story If you are the type who likes OP MC how is strong smart and handsome loved by every girl then I can tell you 100% you should not read this novel I dont want to spoil anything but let just say the MC char in the start of the story can even be considered as ugly and childish. (not in the cute way or airhead dense virg*n way but the wtf are you doing way) If you saw what he did in the anime around ep 15 then believe me that wasn't the first or worst time.... But in his defence he was just a kid thrown to another world almost without anything but his return from death cheat and even that can be considered a curse depending on the way you see it.. Will with time he matures and gets better though honestly it's more like he doesn't have a choice because of his cheat (a.k.a curse) Now leaving Subaru {MC} aside the story and plot are slow REALLY SLOW But not boring and realistic not to slice of life degree but in a balanced fantasy way There will be unrealistic things sometimes but in the end after few chapters and in some cases few arcs when the MC understand things better it will make sense because we only see things from MC POV or 3rd POV about MC current actions Of course the story is dark not very dark because MC have a nice curse but will let's just say that not everything and everyone will be saved... And the story is the type that gets better the more you go on so you don't have to worry about starting good and then turning to shit. In the end this is mostly for people how read a lot of novels and searching for something new so if you are looking for a cute novel or action wars novels I do not recommend this novel for you Its not that the novel is bad it's just not for you taste (that's why there is a lot of people that give it 1 star) Btw The translation is really good and according to the translator he doesn't plan on dropping the novel so there is that too.Plus most of the side character in the story are interesting with a lot of depth and not there just for the sake of the MC which is extremely rare.
