ch 5. what the fuck is that father cheating with maid plot point supposed to add to the story?? just unecessary drama to give the father two wives? I'm so annoyed, the self-proclaimed "god of words" mc just made up a story about how his father blackmailed the maid into having sex, and how is that not worse than them two having sex consensually? any normal person would've thrown the father out at that point (and btw it's not a matter of "jealousy", mc, they fucking betrayed her trust and deserve to be ousted. stop being so fcking selfish bc you want a happy family, mc.). edit: ch 5.5: yeah...is this supposed to offer some perspective to make this heartwarming? cuz its not... im kinda disgusted with the maid too...
ch. side story: girl... (boys, dont follow this father's example, don't gaslight and use ur kids to corner a woman, it's disgusting)
ch 25. first off, it's honestly better than i expected. just get rid of the lecherous parts then mc is pretty great. i enjoy exploring the world with mc and his party, and he is decently smart. we are starting to get character growth too. i felt that he was kinda naive, and idealistic...but that is reasonable bc he used to be NEET and grew up pretty sheltered in his new life. but now experiencing his failure that resulted in death and actual consequences, with the supard's words, he is forced to realize he cant just deflect some blame/guilt with excuses. the ramifications weigh down heavily on him, and i love it. and when the supard helped him out at the expense of his own goal, bc of mc's naivety, that was cherry on top.
ch 36. ngl this chapter added layers of complexity to this isekai manga. paul is a good person and tries to be a good dad, but he's also humane and complex. and mc, he's relatable and realistic, but his flaws aren't glossed over, he takes the step forward to change which he couldnt do in his previous life.
ch 52. they were 15 ish yo!! i just wish they were a bit older before doing the deed. well, whatever... the fact she cut off her hair was pretty cool, tho, shows her resolve and chara growth
ch 76. ngl that was genuinely sweet. syth(?) is sooo cute and precious, esp that ear flapping when she is embarrassed. what's better than an adorable chara with personality + utter devotion + chara growth? like, what the hell, i want her. rudeus is gonna have a harem, so give her to me!
ch 86. wholesome and heartwarming. mc's past life still lingers, it's great cuz it means he cant turn away from someone going thru the same thing.
so mc just have 3 harem members. they're all great tbh, i dislike harems, but they're all endearing... i wish they all would end up with rudeus. sighhhh...
