axelmania's manga / #ongoing(925)

already read and loved volume one

this isnt the series for you if you cant stand things that are callous about death. a frequent trope is introducing so called strong characters only to kill them off in order to make the protagonist look even better. also, children die in this and personally thats something i struggle to see. nevertheless this isnt surprising when you consider this is the one of the first isekai ive seen that leans heavily into horror. the tone of utter despair and bloody ruthlessness in advancing your interests that begins from the first few chapters heightens as the series goes on. it seems so wonderful that he gets a second chance, but is it? i was thinking, well i cant be too angry about all the death because at least we have the cute chibi summons, but then, maybe it should be scary how quickly and unbelievably they go from wanting him dead to loving him. go into this expecting the glorification of traits associated with men that most shounen contain, but something beyond the fanservice, something speculative and mind-warping. well, im definitely overstating it lol, but i love isekai.

i hope this gets fully adapted, i love the novel!

the two characters dont grow at all from the beginning to the end of the manga.
