And…not worth reading after the chapters I’ve just read 🤦🏾♀️. Normally when someone wants to live a quiet and normal life, they normally oh I don’t know…NOT CARE about anything around said character’s surroundings and just figure out what he wants to do.
But no, he completely forgot about his goal in wanting to have sex and live the life he wanted to do when he came back 😒.
Deserve one star.
Reasons-
1. He’s main goal was to have sex once in his life but after reading all the released chapters it looks like he really forgot about his goal.
2. Fight’s are boring. ( not the sketches but the build up)
3. A mega good story concept is ruined because of this.
Not that good, guy comes back to his world to get involved in all kinds of clannish supernatural/mythological shit going. Maybe that was his normal world maybe not, the rules of the world he came back too are not fleshed out, but it’s clearly not a “normal” world.
All I can say is that it starts off as a huge cuckfest

Bookmarked? No.
I’ve never been so conflicted with a score until this review. I really liked the initial chapter since it made me nostalgic of the mc from another manga where the protagonist struggled to get girls to like him because of his ugliness (forgot the name since it’s been 2-3 years and I couldn’t find it). However, from there, it went down hill pretty quickly. The concept is quite interesting and the art is spectacular but the execution was horrible. Everything about this seems rushed, botched, and made-up on the fly. The progress of the story is incoherent because of characters popping out of nowhere every chapter. Along with this, not much is explained about the world, how it got into its state, etc: Zero explanations, zero logic, and zero pacing. I really did want to like it because of the crazy idea of using chess pieces as the mc’s superpower but besides from that, the story is sporadic, causing headache-inducing chapters. This really could’ve been something great if the author slowed down the pace and firmly introduced + established a setting with purpose. However, the author did none of that, ultimately ruining any chances of enjoyability.

Unless there is a Christmas miracle/curse, all scores are finalized, and I have an innate bias towards stories with snip-bits of romance.
In all honesty, the first couple of chapters weren’t that great, so probably a lot of people stopped reading there and that’s why this has a somewhat low rating. However, this does keep getting better the longer you keep reading, it’s just that the way the plot is constructed is fairly unusual. I would actually recommend giving it a shot, since I’ve been enjoying it.
Im just gonna say it. This shit sucks ass.
Live quietly my ass
why is he so weak for what he is?
If you want to live quietly but you’re an incredibly powerful person, just use the magic spell “F*CK OFF YOU C*NTS!” and generally, people will leave you alone.
Its a confusing pile of half explained plot points and quarter explained scenarios. You never know whats going on (7 chapters in) and the MC isnt proactive at all. I mean, you know how humans are. Away from your own world for X amount of years? Finally back and meet people who you should know and love (even if you dont remember them)? Why bother interacting with them in any meaningful way, when you could just let misunderstandings and terrible things happen? Found your brother? He’s a gangster now? Wreck his crew, but explain nothing about why and dont bother talking to him! If you like when this website accidently releases chapters with pages out of order, you’ll LOVE this manga!
HOW ARE YOU IDIOTS CONFUSED???? Its only been 5 chapters, its practically still the intro and we’ve just been shown the possible main conflict but localized to their area in Japan.
Hated his personality, he just annoys me with everything he does and thinks.
tf s this im confused
A commendable thought process on the idea of a post-isekai, and they are in better than normal isekai, but this series is utter crap. It’s not at all a good plot and new characters are introduced with no depth to themselves,
