Pretty much the only good point to this novel is that it's a fantasy setting, and the translators are very good. Beyond that, the plot is inconsistent, the bad guys are one-dimensional, the author randomly switches perspectives with no warning whatsoever, and to top it off, the MC is incredibly weak, to the point where he could be accurately labeled as a small fry. Building a loli harem is one thing, but having to be repeatedly saved/spared by the lolis who are all literally 100x more powerful than the MC is incredibly unsightly. I don't necessarily need the MC to be an OP Mary Sue, but at least give him some potential. Unless the author randomly throws in some instant power up out of nowhere, I don't even see the potential for the MC to significantly increase his abilities. Also, the author is probably an incredible chuuni. The MC always shouts the name of his attack whenever he uses his magic, even when the author explicitly states that chanting/yelling isn't necessary for the magic to work. All the names of the magic are also overly grandiose, almost to the point of parody. I also think alot of the tags are misleading. It might change with further chapters, but I'm already more than 50 chapters in and I haven't seen a single yandere, the plot also isn't very "seinen, " at least not compared to some serious works that I've read. Moreover, it doesn't have much of the psychological aspect either. Maybe they're confusing brainwashing with the psychological genre. It's really not the same thing. I can see hints of a loli harem, but well, I wasn't really looking forward to that part anyways.All in all, meh. If you've got nothing better to do, then this might be for you. It's slightly more entertaining than daytime television.
