I at first, found the story to be a pretty plain and run of the mill reincarnation story and it still kind of is for the most part. The saving grace of the manga is definitely the great action panels which are very top tier and the goofy developing romantic relationship triangle between all of the characters which usually good for a laugh. The world building they are doing in this is great, though the story is a bit flimsy overall, it starts to really get fleshed out and detailed in the more recent chapters where they go to the land of elves and the ... spirit realm and the action panels really only get better. The main character Wals is a little too op, but they really do a good job of making it seem like he's about to be challenged in this Manga, almost the same way they do in One Punch Man or with The Overprepared Hero. His only real weakness is that he is extremely overconfident and will eventually get destroyed in some way or lose someone for character development in the future due to being too sure of himself.
A solid read in my opinion. Some parts are slow in pace and a bit hard to get though, but won't put you in full snore mode like some parts of Black Clover did with me lol.

Series start fairly good, and in general keeps the pace more or less fine. I've picked it up while looking through more trash isekait to consume, and this one is definitely not the trashy kind. For the most part. It has usual bits with overpowered protagonist, but unlike some instances, here it doesn't feel too annoying or self-indulgent. Story keeps itself busy by throwing in minor and big twists.
The ending somewhat of a letdown, in a sense that the story had thrown in many questions and possibilities, and when you get to the answers it's never really gonna live up to your theories. ... Still, as far as endings go, there are worse ways to go by.

An overreliance on typical reincarnation tropes with no flavor to it. Wals has a personality, its just not a terribly interesting one. He's also ridiculously strong in all of the generic way, with no signature skill or ability. Wals also doesn't seem to have flaws as per usual of these types of stories. His relationship with the princess is forced but they immediately accept each other and by the 17th chapter seem like old friends despite meeting a few weeks ago at best. The slave tribe that Wals is born is poorly thought out, the princess's worries are almost meaningless, and the central conflict isn't ... that interesting. The magic system isn't explained well and neither is the slave system. Despite the title being about slaves, the manga doesn't seem to be interested in portraying any sort of mature themes about it, it just looks at slavery and goes "that's cool but what if our main character just happened to not care about it". The author tries to write background characters being mean to Wals, but it happens about 2 times before it becomes obvious that nothing is really going to be expanded on. Some odd twists occur in the story but to almost all of them I have to ask it any of them were necessary. They just seem like arbitrary story elements slapped on in order to be able to be fit into more categories. A lot of the supporting class are also written as 1 note characters with no depth to them. Over all it has nice but generic art work and that's all I can really praise it for. I hope it improves.
