Summoned to Another World… Purification Is basic!

I enjoyed this when it was shorter, but didn’t review at that time because it felt unfocused, like it might not be going anywhere. Now that it seems to be more or less completed, it feels like someone wrote a slice of life manga that takes place in the neighborhood where an epic adventure manga is happening. We keep seeing huge events happening somewhere outside, but we aren’t following that story, really. We are staying inside with the shut-in who is too laid back to peek out the windows, and too involved in his hobbies to worry about the explosions.

Now that I know how it works, this is a fine feel-good do-nothing fantasy. MC is technically doing things, but it’s pretty much just cooking and cleaning, and he does those with magic, so there is neither effort nor tension. The bigger story had characters, tension, drama, and action, and would be the story I was wishing for, but that’s some other manga. This is cute and harmless and I recommend it if you have run out of cat videos.

Summary: Isekai man becomes a god and uses his powers to purify a cursed forest of monsters. The monsters approach him a few at a time to offer him their servitude, and they are cute.
