Adoro la trama de esta serie， pero no soporto la actitud de la mayoría de los personajes。 Sus pleitos y discusiones se me hacen de lo más tediosas y repetitivas。 Creo que si quitáramos esos conflictos infantiles， cada libro se recortaría a la mitad

Surprisingly better volume that the one preceding it， as the author finally decided to return to the earlier characters and develop them。 This was really one of my major annoyances with the series， as the start of the story introduced a pretty interesting cast but kept introducing new characters and plot without any meaningful participation by anyone other than the debuting characters and the MC。 This also feels like the first volume that felt more cohesive than usual because of that， as well as Surprisingly better volume that the one preceding it， as the author finally decided to return to the earlier characters and develop them。 This was really one of my major annoyances with the series， as the start of the story introduced a pretty interesting cast but kept introducing new characters and plot without any meaningful participation by anyone other than the debuting characters and the MC。 This also feels like the first volume that felt more cohesive than usual because of that， as well as the fact the story agency is slowly returning to the characters， because thus far much of the plot was really just "stuff happens， MC has to respond to it" type of plot。 Some important backstory also gets introduced， but the volume ended with a cliffhanger so much of the plot threads remain。 Still， it can't shake off the "more side-trips" feel， but it is admittedly slightly better written when compared to the standard of the volumes aside from the first， by far。 Localization issues still continue with this volume however， albeit it's not too bad of an issue if you can stomach it。 。。。more

Naofumi is still working on building up the village。 Between raising a gifted dragon egg and dealing with the crazy girls after him， he doesn't have a lot of time to rest。 News of Itsuki fighting in the Coliseum， though， forces him to detour to try to recruit the last Hero by whatever means necessary。This book is a mess。 Structurally， it doesn't hold up well。 The plot has three separate main conflicts going on， and they aren't tied together very smoothly。 It's more like two and a half shorter st Naofumi is still working on building up the village。 Between raising a gifted dragon egg and dealing with the crazy girls after him， he doesn't have a lot of time to rest。 News of Itsuki fighting in the Coliseum， though， forces him to detour to try to recruit the last Hero by whatever means necessary。This book is a mess。 Structurally， it doesn't hold up well。 The plot has three separate main conflicts going on， and they aren't tied together very smoothly。 It's more like two and a half shorter stories bludgeoned into a novel-length book。I hate this segment of the village life even more than the previous book。 Alta lost all my sympathy after she got healed and started being a creeper on Naofumi， but she's finally gotten so bad that Naofumi is jumping at the chance to run away in a manner she can't follow。 The whole harem aspect isn't even done well， as pretty much all the girls except Raphtalia have a single character trait they beat to death and virtually nothing else （it doesn't help that they're all very much underage）。 When I find myself wishing that something would just come along and kill them off， they're an active detriment to the story。In a related note， Naofumi's attitude about slavery is getting worse。 This isn't helped by all his slaves enthusiastically supporting him as their owner。 Forget being slaves， these are kids。 I'm shocked none of them have any issues with him bossing them around， even if he is telling them the fastest way to get stronger。 I don't actually mind Naofumi personally seeing this in a wrongheaded way， as that's part of his morally grey character， but it's a bit too much when everyone else decides to worship his decisions。Gaelion is better。 I liked that Naofumi finally got a dragon and decided to raise it， although predictably things go sideways before too long。 I appreciate that Naofumi actually chooses a male， since the cast has been way too imbalanced towards the girls for too long。 Although it's not the same case as Filo， Gaelion ends up as someone else Naofumi can talk to， and one of the few people around him who isn't interested in jumping him。Itsuki's confrontation with Rishia was also decent。 Rishia's been overcoming all her past limitations， and now it's time to go back to the person who both inspired her and rejected her。 But Itsuki never thought much of Rishia， and his curse series has even further stopped up his ears， so their actual battle is an amusing sequence of "Hey， the person fighting you is over here！" I am disappointed the book never confirms which curse series he unlocked， as several guesses are offered but none confirmed。The last part of the book is the only part I actually enjoyed。 Sadeena has some interesting comments about Raphtalia's family， and that turns into a big mess by the end and gives Naofumi a new goal。 I'm pretty sure this will be related to one of the Sacred Beasts as well， so that should hopefully bring the story out of this slump and back into a better plot。Overall， it's been an extremely rocky road through this arc， and although I still have hopes the series overall will get better I'm getting less enthusiastic about having to buy the next book to find out what's next。 I might look for the web novel to get an idea if the plot actually gets better or if the tacky harem plotline continues to dominate。 I rate this book Neutral。See my reviews and more at https://offtheshelfreviews。wordpress。。。。 。。。more

Amazing series。 This one was a bit meh for me。 It's all about a side character that was just introduced。 I still have high hopes for this series， I just ope they don't bog themselves down with to many characters。 Amazing series。 This one was a bit meh for me。 It's all about a side character that was just introduced。 I still have high hopes for this series， I just ope they don't bog themselves down with to many characters。 。。。more

I can't believe I am still captivated by this series at book 12。 Japan sure knows how to write books。 This book felt like it was in three parts。 They had to fight a dragon， then one of the heroes， and then a whole bunch of ninjas。 It was pretty action packed and we get some back story of Raphtalia。 I am so hooked。 I can't wait for the next book in December and the anime next year。 I can't believe I am still captivated by this series at book 12。 Japan sure knows how to write books。 This book felt like it was in three parts。 They had to fight a dragon， then one of the heroes， and then a whole bunch of ninjas。 It was pretty action packed and we get some back story of Raphtalia。 I am so hooked。 I can't wait for the next book in December and the anime next year。 。。。more

This review has been hidden because it contains spoilers。 To view it， click here。 This one again was a bit of a miss for me in comparison with some of the previous volumes。 There seems to be a repetition to some of the story arcs which makes scenes like reuniting with the heroes more of a chore than any sort of significant stand out moment。。 Much funnier than previous volumes and the new story arc for the next volumes sounds like it will be good so fingers crossed。4。0
