Pretty good actually, the art is cute, interactions are pretty straight forward, but pacing is bizarre and MC is an allrounder chantless magic marauder workaholic, kinda funny in a way.
No system, reincarnation, god blessing…
Tbh i was ready to give-up this one at the first encounter, but surprise, it was not a princess in distress running from enemies, and while it was a person with some political power up ’til ch28 (where i am rn) it was just a facilitator.
The only thing that might hit you strange is the fact that one “nation” aka ‘the empire’ took a guy from the enemy nation and readily put in the middle rank no questions asked, the guy is just too skilled to be a spy, and he’ll go to special ops after a single mission and rise again after another one.
MC is kinda dense and might be creating a harem but i might also be wrong as we did not get enough development yet and we only have relevant interaction w two girls and we are in the middle of mission to get the third one.
In general 3.5/5 (7/10) if you are able to bypass the rushed start and some logical incongruences.
Meh, it’s pretty mediocre. The main character is too skilled for it to be believable that he was undervalued in his home kingdom. The pacing is also pretty bad. The story barely has time to establish a setup before it’s racing ahead, so there isn’t really time to build familiarity or appreciation for what the author has shown.
Movin’ on up! 😎
not much to this one, everything is told in a rush, his old situation where he is exploited last one page and in a matter of a few chapter he is already one of the top guy in the empire force.
Honestly look like the type of story an overworked japanese salaryman would read to cope about their life, wich would explain why there is nothing stressful or challenging and every character is telling the MC to take easy
really bad pacing. thing happen faster than coco melon.
The time between chapters is increasing exponentially…
I see a lot of potential
“I Was Acknowledged as a Useless Good-for-Nothing”That still means you were acknowledged…
This is definitely dead, year since an update, been out 3 years and only at 5 chapters.
Whoa! It’s not dead? Wow! Someone cast a very high-level resurrection spell on this one, didn’t they?
I Was Acknowledged as a Useless Good-for-Nothing
Yeah, that’s me
No growth or logic. Main character is just OP from the start and every loves him within pages of meeting him.


































Early days, but after chapter 7 I’m not hooked. This is a placeholder review for when I come back to try again. Translation isn’t great, but so far the story is aiming pretty low. No engagement, no development, just “I went here. This was scary. I was the strongest. It was great.” I will give it another chance but can’t justify it.
