A brief description of the manga I Don’t Really Get It, but It Looks Like I Was Reincarnated in Another World:
“I’m cute, but in a past life I was a middle-aged research scientist!”
Orphan Ren was sold and was riding in a wagon when the accident happened. After an unfortunate incident, memories from a past life returned to her!
“I was … a grown man!”
Well, yes, she was a scientist in his thirties who died in a blast in the laboratory. After being reborn, she lived like an orphan girl!
Ren will use his talents in magic and knowledge in science to survive in this harsh world and escape from the merchant who bought her!
The story of how to survive in another world with the help of magic and science!
I really like this comic. It’s the best “i want to be the best in the world but not stand out” themed story i’ve read.
In that: many people know she’s skilled but only a very small (non-overlapping) number of people know the MC as a freakishly powerful, unconventional adventurer; who is also capable of creating national-treasure class magic items; who is also a wealthy inventor.
The first is known to her two adventuring companions and may be suspected by her childhood friends, the second is known to a single smithy owner and a prince and may be suspected by the royal family, and the third is known to only a couple higher ups in the merchant guild but may also be suspected by the same smithy owner and his wife.
Being S-rank in many different fields and appreciated for it by those that matter, but not being hassled for it by parasites is ideal. All in all, she’s having about as great a life as an isekai’d reincarnator can have.

Hard to comment on this one. The art and fan service is nice. The characters are okay for what they are… but the story itself? So hard to follow. Done in no little part by most of the chapters becoming machine translated. And the MC’s ‘goals’ just seem to be random depending on the arc.
I don’t really want to hear about some middle-aged dude jerking off.
Maybe that’s your type of story, in which case, you’re geh.
I got into this for the bog-standard isekai premise, and the title was wrong, there was nothing not to get. Still, I enjoyed it; MC had challenges to overcome and the lewdly suggestive plot was fun for a time. I struggled through the awful translation for a time, but then started reading on another site and returning for the comments. Around chapter 50 or 60, I got worn out; the challenges were replaced by cooking segments I didn’t enjoy, the adventures were replaced by a ‘forced by my conscience to care for some orphans’ subplot, the saucy suggestions became repetitive mentions that MC had jilled off off-screen. But the killer was that MC began to accumulate powers and rare materials as fast as the author could dream them, so all sense of stakes or challenge evaporated. It got boring.
It’s not awful, but the translation is nearly unreadable for several dozen chapters, and the substance of the writing dissipates, and it’s pretty disappointing. I’m on the fence about advising you to skip or to read it with very low expectations. Good luck.
Is it good though?
This is way hornier than the novel version. I like it though.
I am very confused.
Great story, but after ten chapter the trad become really bad.
Food Wars meets isekai nothing special it honestly made me angry how stupid the mc is
i actually have the books
I’d have much less whiplash if the name was something more appropriate like “i reincarnated as a perverted goddess”
LOL, My timing is amazing (in a bad sense) with my last comment, apparently the author just started posting a few new chapters after so long a hiatus.so maybe story will continue after all.
I like this one. The story isn’t really all that ecchi, the only things tend to be her “daily routine” and it’s all euphemism and honestly seems more of a running gag than anything. I don’t think the story is that bad, though the manga definitely alters Ren a bit. Unfortunately though, there’s not much hope for this series as chapter 100 will probably be around the last produced, author just stopped publishing after that point and hasn’t written anything else for several years now.
The “30 year old adult” MC is unable to maturely tell kids to buzz off; he’s not interested. This “NEET” MC completely abandons isolation by chapter 12 and travels around desperately seeking attention. Multiple subplots to show up random people how much better the MC / Japan is; how everyone loves the MC; how we must all stroke the MC’s ego.
One example about how this manga is written: Chapter 63 starts with the MC restating that he does not want to get involved with the prince. He immediately interrupts a business meeting with the same prince to tell them that lunch is ready (btw, every adult should know that you can get fired for interrupting a business meeting for such a stupid reason). Then, he proceeds to stay in the meeting, uninvited, like an idiot. No sorry for the interruption, no walking away, it’s I’m going to stand here until the plot forces me to get involved with the person that I definitely don’t want to get involved with. And take a wild guess what happens by the end of Ch 63. I bet you will never guess it.
