I wrote something similar about To be a Power in the Shadows, but this just stops being funny after a while. The story is the same thing again and again without any real development or stakes. The manga One Punch Man is also a gag story, but it stays interesting because the absurdly strong MC isn't really the focus of the story, the side characters are, and while the MC Saitama stays the same like in this story and doesn't really develop which is fine for a gag story, characters around him do, which makes the manga actually interesting to keep reading. This doesn't happen in this story - None of the side characters ever change, none of the enemies are particularly interesting, and none of the worldbuilding is either- it's all just the same thing again and again. I really don't understand why this has a high rating while most other japanese novels get constantly rated very low.
