My Reincarnation Skills Are “Playing With Dolls” and “Playing With Clay”, but What Am I Supposed to Do With These? Chapter 57 Discussion

TL;DR - MC gets drugged and forcibly ens*aved. After they forced him into s*avery, made him sleep on a pile of hay in a prison cell, and made him fight life threatening battles, and somehow in the end, he "couldn't be upset at them".

EDIT: I can't believe I almost forgot this. DON'T READ THIS STORY. His power lets him basically give life to dolls and make them life sized and his only companion since the beginning has been the doll that god gave him. But guess what he does. There is a merchant that his s*ave owners want support from and the merchant demands mc's owners to come to his mansion and do what he wants for a night. MC yells that it isn't acceptable and that he won't allow it, instead he hands over his doll companion, who has full sentience at this point. She has the body of a middle schooler and was completely against going with the merchant the whole time, but MC made her a dominatrix outfit and made her go with him to be alone for a FULL NIGHT. She comes back depressed and says she's been defiled, but MC got to sleep with one of the merchant's secretaries that he was interested in while she went through that. It isn't some "Oh, he was admiring her in a creepy way" type of excuse either. She says "It was terrible, you know? Suddenly ○○ with ××, and △△ with slurp slurp slurp slurp...", then makes MC hard scrub her body all over, twice. WTF is that. After this, MC even has the audacity to say he doesn't get why the girls in the story don't like the merchant.

Original Review:

This has to be the most frustrating "nice guy" protagonist I've seen in a while. He claims to have played RPGs from all over the world and have knowledge about isekai stories, but he's insanely naive and trusting of people, especially those in power.

My biggest issue relates to what memesan said in their review, which is him becoming and being a s*ave. He acts like he knows tropes and such for fantasy/isekai stories and games, but is openly telling people he's an otherworlder while he's extremely weak and can't protect himself. Most stories I've seen have corrupt nobles, s*avery, and taking advantage of otherworlders. He questions why characters hide the fact that they met god and came from another world and immediately gets drugged and ens*aved by the nobles he just met the day before. He's asked about his background like three more times and he just keeps telling people he's an otherworlder even after his first experience.

He has gone out of his way, without orders, to save his s*ave masters multiple times already. The lame reasoning he gives is that "It would be dangerous to be here alone right now" and "Only I can give them their punishment." Which is seemingly tossed out of the window I guess since he can't be upset with them for whatever reason.

The story even tries to point out how there is "fair" s*avery with people who sold themselves to get themselves or their family out of debt and can work their way out, as well as prisoners of war turned into s*aves. I can stretch my mind to understand why the debt s*aves aren't super angry about it and maybe the prisoners of war are just resigned to their fates, but he was an innocent person forced into s*avery with no benefit promised to him. He is so casual about suddenly becoming a s*ave in another world that it's annoying. He was "angry" for about one chapter until the tone started feeling like he was just an adventurer traveling with his party or something.

At one point he was in his prison cell with all the other s*aves and says "The patrolling soldiers politely performed a roll call for sleep." Uhhhhh... Yeah, good thing they were polite to the s*aves in cages, I guess. Then he says "Of course, I think it's admirable that Cecily [his owner] is trying to train me after fighting in the labyrinth battle and essentially working overtime. She has a diligence that I don't possess." He's just straight up admiring his s*ave owner and it's kind of hilarious.

Karina, the noble girl who made his forced s*ave pact possible, even tells people that he's sent by God to be their "salvation". Her character is so weird because she is the reason I knew he would forgive them. The entire time he's been a s*ave, the story has been trying to paint her as a nice normal girl who is just doing her best for her territory. But she drugged and tricked a man into s*avery then made him fight for his life...

I don't usually mention the TL in reviews, but this one makes it annoying to track names and who is actually doing actions sometimes. They aren't even proofreading the names, because it will have multiple spellings in one chapter back to back:

Kalena -> Carina, Carena, Kareena, Karina, Carrena, "Count Kareena, Carrena's father", Karrena

Laruk -> Larouque, Laruke, Lalouk, Raluc, Laruq, Larruk, Laruc, Larouk, Laruuk, Laruque

Greon -> Gleon, Gureon

Beth -> Ves, Bez, Bess
