A hilarious sci-fi isekai about a guy who just can’t manage to be the villain he wants to be， from the author of Trapped in a Dating Sim: The World of Otome Games is Tough for Mobs。
In his last life， Liam lived as a moral， responsible person…but died deep in debt and betrayed by his wife。 Reborn into the ruling family of a vast interstellar empire， Liam knows that life is divided between the downtrodden and the ones who do the stomping， so this time he’s going to take what he wants and live for himself。 But somehow， things refuse to work out that way。 Despite doing his best to become a tyrant， Liam’s decisions lead to nothing but peace and prosperity for the empire under his rule， and he just gets more and more popular！

I thought he was kind of a prat， and the story idea wasn’t enough to carry him。

Interesting take on the genreI enjoyed this idea of a normal guy who gets trodden on in his life， dies and gets reborn as a noble only to find hes indebt but everything he tries as he thinks hes an evil villain ends up making more money and helping those around him 。I hope he gets his harem in book 2 and that he realizes that being evil just makes everbody love him more。

Great story， can't wait for more adventures :）Really liked this story overall。 Loved the way the author plays with perception。 If you like isekai， space， action and some possible romance， I totally recommend。 Also great job on the art。 It really fit。 :） Great story， can't wait for more adventures :）Really liked this story overall。 Loved the way the author plays with perception。 If you like isekai， space， action and some possible romance， I totally recommend。 Also great job on the art。 It really fit。 :） 。。。more

The book is exactly what I expected it to be， a light-hearted Isekai power fantasy with the MC wanting one thing and the rest of the world seeing him do the opposite。 Unlike most such stories this is set in a fantasy/SF type of world， although it is still kind of simple with little thought to implications of things beyond the direct impact on the MC。 The characters do not fit the typical tropes completely， although they are simple with little character development。 Then again， I was not expectin The book is exactly what I expected it to be， a light-hearted Isekai power fantasy with the MC wanting one thing and the rest of the world seeing him do the opposite。 Unlike most such stories this is set in a fantasy/SF type of world， although it is still kind of simple with little thought to implications of things beyond the direct impact on the MC。 The characters do not fit the typical tropes completely， although they are simple with little character development。 Then again， I was not expecting much， and I found the story and situations entertaining。 So good for its genre， but don't expect too much。 。。。more

Amazing！I've read the authors other work （Trapped in a Dating Sim: The World of Otome Games is Tough for Mobs） so I was already hyped for this but it just blew me away！ I love this world and Liam is a great protagonist。 Count me in for the next volume！ Amazing！I've read the authors other work （Trapped in a Dating Sim: The World of Otome Games is Tough for Mobs） so I was already hyped for this but it just blew me away！ I love this world and Liam is a great protagonist。 Count me in for the next volume！ 。。。more

Une oeuvre intéressante malgré un début pas vraiment à mon goût ou je trouvais le MC fade voir antipathique。 Vous me connaissez， je suis pas forcément contre un peu de fan service/echi du moment que ça apporte qqchose/sert un propos。 Par contre， j'ai toujours beaucoup de mal à conceptualiser un mioche de 5 ans en train de peloter sa maid à gros sein。 Même si c'est un adulte à l'intérieur ça me dérange toujours。 Vu qu'on était quand même pas au niveau de pourriture de Rudeus （loin de là）， je suis Une oeuvre intéressante malgré un début pas vraiment à mon goût ou je trouvais le MC fade voir antipathique。 Vous me connaissez， je suis pas forcément contre un peu de fan service/echi du moment que ça apporte qqchose/sert un propos。 Par contre， j'ai toujours beaucoup de mal à conceptualiser un mioche de 5 ans en train de peloter sa maid à gros sein。 Même si c'est un adulte à l'intérieur ça me dérange toujours。 Vu qu'on était quand même pas au niveau de pourriture de Rudeus （loin de là）， je suis passé au dessus et j'ai bien fait， l'auteur （de Trapped in a Dating Sim également） passe vite à autre chose et c'est vrai que petit à petit le contraste entre le MC qui se prend pour un seigneur démon et pense agir comme tel et le résultat qui en ressort est vraiment intéressant/amusant。Je prendrai volontiers le prochain tome et vais peut être tenter son autre oeuvre。 。。。more

An Unintentionally Good Villain This is a really great read。 A revenge story where the MC's life of "always being victimised" comes to an end and he's reborn with the intention of becoming an evil lord。 That's all it is， though， an intention。 Upon his rebirth he discovers the place he has been given governance over has already been bled dry， and finds himself working instead to restore the territory and escape his astronomical debts， leading him to be seen as a wise ruler and a "true noble" in a An Unintentionally Good Villain This is a really great read。 A revenge story where the MC's life of "always being victimised" comes to an end and he's reborn with the intention of becoming an evil lord。 That's all it is， though， an intention。 Upon his rebirth he discovers the place he has been given governance over has already been bled dry， and finds himself working instead to restore the territory and escape his astronomical debts， leading him to be seen as a wise ruler and a "true noble" in an humorously ironic contrast to his expectations。His poor reputation leads him to be swindled when looking for an instructor， but even that can't stop his path to becoming the heroic knight he's meant to be。。。 wait wasn't he becoming an evil lord？？A comical read with exciting prospects for further volumes。 。。。more

A man who died after a miserable life was offered the chance to reincarnate on a new world with spaceships and magic。 Now Liam Banfield， son of a Count， ruler of a planet， he is determined to be one of the oppressors and not one of the oppressed。 But Liam isn't very good at being evil 。 。 。This is a misunderstanding comedy， primarily focusing on the difference between what Liam wants and thinks versus what he's actually doing， which is causing everyone around him to revere him as a moral and upr A man who died after a miserable life was offered the chance to reincarnate on a new world with spaceships and magic。 Now Liam Banfield， son of a Count， ruler of a planet， he is determined to be one of the oppressors and not one of the oppressed。 But Liam isn't very good at being evil 。 。 。This is a misunderstanding comedy， primarily focusing on the difference between what Liam wants and thinks versus what he's actually doing， which is causing everyone around him to revere him as a moral and upright lord。 He's got this idea about what evil lords ought to do， but between his robot maid Amagi and his own disinclination towards larger vices， he never quite makes it there。I do enjoy the story as a whole， especially the Guide。 The Guide feeds on misery， and inadvertently creates his worst nightmare in Liam， who is forever grateful to him。 Everything the Guide brings into his life to destroy him ends up working to Liam's benefit---and mostly because Liam is always thankful （there is also， in small part， the spirit of his former dog to thank， as well as the Guide's ability to read Liam's TRUE thoughts tripping them both up）。 Honestly the only downside is the groping。 Liam just can't keep his hands off his maid robot， and there are also some unfortunate incidents with a visiting sales woman who is so desperate to close a deal she's throwing herself at him。 But of course the story goes out of its way to encourage him to make a really large harem---so it's unlikely this aspect will ever improve。Overall， this was mostly a fun read。 I rate this book Recommended。See my reviews and more at https://offtheshelfreviews。wordpress。。。。 。。。more

Got halfway through Volume 5 and then slothtranslations didn’t have any more chapters done。 This is dictated， so please pardon spelling errors。 Characters 3/5 I liked themThe main character is very well done and lifelike， in that comedic， caricature-ish way。 The other characters are one dimensional， but still rather interesting。 At least interactions between characters are interesting。World 1。5/5The world building is not the focus， but was rather a letdown。 The world itself is interesting， combi Got halfway through Volume 5 and then slothtranslations didn’t have any more chapters done。 This is dictated， so please pardon spelling errors。 Characters 3/5 I liked themThe main character is very well done and lifelike， in that comedic， caricature-ish way。 The other characters are one dimensional， but still rather interesting。 At least interactions between characters are interesting。World 1。5/5The world building is not the focus， but was rather a letdown。 The world itself is interesting， combining the fleet battles of legend of the Galactic heroes， the mobile suits from Gundam， and the SDF from Macross。 thankfully things like battles are skimmed over and not told in much detail。 However， relevant facts are often missing or told late in the story， which lens itself to an artificial feeling while reading。Story 2。5/5 I liked itIt was funny and mildly interesting， but nothing to write home about。 After my translation source didn’t have any more chapters， I didn’t even bother looking for more on other sites， which should give you an idea of how engaging the story turned out to be。 Much of my enjoyment is probably just because this is the first decent JP novel I’m reading in a while， and it’s also a comedy， which I haven’t read in a while as well。 。。。more
