"Ansatsusha de Aru Ore no Status ga Yuusha yori mo Akiraka ni Tsuyoi no da ga"
is one of the few Isekais where Overpowered MC is handled pretty well.
Not just completely focusing on the MC but also around him, not going to the "cliche" path as the others but still manage to be interesting.

The story revolves around our MC named Akira who got summoned along with his 2nd Year classmate. But even if they were summoned, only one will be get the title "Hero". Our MC didn't manage to get a hold of it but instead given an "Assassin" class.
Even though it has only 9.2 ... chapters as of now, I assure you that this one isn't the same as the most Isekai manga.

6.9/10


I read up to chapter 20 two years ago and I had to reread this because of how little I remembered. Surprisingly, the beginning set-up was better than I remembered of a manga of this type. Though, all good things must come to an end, and apparently the longer this manga drags on, the rawer the plot becomes.

The reading experience is as if the author did not plot out any of the conflict or resolutions of said conflict. To further elaborate, most of the arcs are sudden and out of place while other plot points were forgotten about.

Despite the pitiful attempt by the ... author to create drama or character development, each character fits an already made mold that doesn’t expand from what has been given. The only enjoyable quality is the mysterious history they possess.

There’s not much logic in the isekai’d world expectedly of the title of this work, but it’s still rather upsetting to see plot holes or inconsistency. Not the best written isekai “revenge” manga, but it does its job (poorly) of mixing the revenge and slow life trope.

Another forgettable isekai. The story fizzles out almost immediately and we are left with a collection of boring isekai tropes. This is one of those self-aware stories where the MC is calling out isekai tropes as they happen. MC is told every chapter that he's the most powerful existence in the universe which makes the whole story kind of pointless. The biggest flaw here is there's no urgency to anything. The action scenes have no urgency. The characters have no urgency and seem to just wander around without a care in the world. The world-building is atrocious with characters teleporting from location to location without ... explanation.
