If you are looking for a manga in which the main character is sent into another world you might enjoy this one.

The main character while not unique, is different from your average easy going main characters. He is very smart; anti social and arrogant, he doesn't want to help others if he doesn't gets compensation for it. However he always finds some sort of benefit for ending up saving the ones really in need.
This manga seems to have many nicely implemented manga references such as Log Horizon (when the MC face is all dark but you can clearly see his glasses), Shokugeki no Souma ... (foodgasms) and probably more in the following chapters.

Story(X/10)
As of now there are only 8 translated chapters and thus it is way to soon to even start judging the story. The MC ventures alone in a RPG like fantasy world and while he only wants to be alone he soon finds himself surrounded by people that took a liking to him.

Art(9/10)
Very good quality and enjoyable to the eye. It's not original but that's not always a bad thing.

Character(7/10)
So far none of the introduced characters is unique, if you had read many mangas you will relate all of them to other manga characters. However their development is existent and at a fine pace.
As I said above there are only 8 translated chapters yet so don't take this number seriously.

Enjoyment(9/10)
I've been enjoying this manga probably way more than I should because it fits what I was looking for. The not usual main character personality gives this otherwise a boring manga a nice twist.

Overall(8/10)
Again it's too soon to evaluate this manga properly. While so far it's far from being a masterpiece, it's also far from being a bad manga. If you read this review then you probably should give this manga a try.

PS: This is my first review so apologies for any mistakes and for my bad english. I just felt the urge to review it because the only other review (made by Ugoki) shouldn't be considered a review in the first place. I honestly doubt he read more than the first 2 chapters (probably just the first one) because everything he said is complete BS. I will update this review as more translated chapters are released.

I've read the first 26 chapters and my conclusion is as follows: This is a mediocre shonen action adventure fantasy story. Might just be the definition of an overall 5/10.

Let's start with the best part, the main character. Thanks to his cool demeanor and very pragmatic worldview he is a notch better than his peers, even though he is nothing really special. At least the story spends some time fleshing out his character. Initially his arrogant attitude and constant childish bickering with Arnold (one of his companions) were rather aggravating, but this issue seems to be coming up less as the story goes on, which ... might just be the signs of character development. The same however can't be said for his companions, who are really a run of the mill bunch, not necessarily bad, but not good either.

Even though the manga has a half decent cast, there is just no chemistry between them. There is Arnold and Muir's father-daughter relationship, which is fine, there is the Mc and Arnold's constant bickering, which is just annoying, Wi's blunt affection for the Mc, which is just obvious fanservice, Muir's strive for self-betterment and her envy and embarrassment over Wi's bluntness is mostly kept to herself, and there is Arnold's pervertedness, which is just being played to make the same joke over and over again, and I basically listed all the character dynamics. Although which of these are dynamics and which are simple gimmicks, is up for debate. There is just no meaningful character interaction or banter between them. And I personally wouldn't mind some more small talk, if it's entertaining or gives to the characters, even a little.

The biggest problem with the manga is the story. Namely that it is just rather boring, well not exactly boring, it is that nothing of real significance happens, just basic fantasy stuff. To put it simply it's just not a particularly exciting read. Not to mention that when things actually happen, it is mostly delivered in a very convenient, contrived manner. And just when the story starts to get better the plot pulls out the secret (synonymous with asspull) powerup card. I wasn't bothered much with its presentation, rather with the fact that the manga managed to trip on another genre trapping. Whenever the story shows any signs of promise a convenient plot point happens, or someone says something out of character, just to revert back to normal within a couple of sentences, and this really holds the whole thing back. It's also worth a mention that the manga has some fanservice, not too much to turn down those who don't like it, but enough to entertain those who do. That seems to be the thing, the manga just really hits the middle of the road with whatever it does.

While I would be lying if I said the manga didn't get any better during its runtime, whether that's actually worth the wait however, is up for debate. Since I can't say that it was completely unenjoyable, and since this is the beginning of the story I am willing to give it some slack. However, I advise caution with it, or at the very least adjusted expectations.

Slight spoilers ahead, but they don't interfere with the story.
I tried liking the series, I really did, but there's so many things going wrong that would've made this series amazing if it had gone right.
This entire series is about little children, specifically, little girls, who fall in love with the MC protag. Each of them have the exact same personality, gets treated in the same manner by the MC, and have the same exact backgrounds. Every character in the series can be summed up in two sentences:
"I'm an orphan who underwent trauma." and "I'm in love with the MC"
Speaking of the MC, for someone who ... is supposed to be clever, he's incredibly stupid. Further discussion would be spoilers so lets leave it at that.
Finally:
There are themes of racism, which I wholeheartedly hate as to its management within the story, and there are themes of rape, which is treated as a joke.
Now as to what I liked:
The ability of the MC would be cool, if he actually used it in a creative fashion. The world of the story seems decent. The MC was clever for a whole five chapters.
Again, the story would be amazing if so much hadn't just gone wrong.

The first thing I must say about this - it's very bad.

But it is the perfect example of "barely readable", "mildly ineresting" adventures that keeps the ideal balance between two elements - enjoyment and boredom, without one of them reaching you enough to feel any emotion. The recipe is:
1) Hollow cardboard characters
2) Something happens? I guess?
3) At least nothing too horrible to point out

Despite my statement that it's bad, it's far beyond the scale of "good or bad" beacuse of how mediocre it is. I just wanted to convey that it's not worth your time. You should try this ONLY if you have literally nothing ... better to read.
