After The WarSouma is Integrating the newly annexed territory, stimulating education, increasing the economy, reorganizing the military, sorting out his feelings and intentions for his wives to be, and finding answers to his summoning。 I like the action, humor, intrigue, and romance。 I look forward to the next book。

This is a very anti-religious volume。 Unlike the prior volumes, it feels more biased towards certain ideologies and political systems。As for the story itself, while it starts with the annexation of Van, it continues with the reforms in Elfrieden, which makes it lack continuity。 Many of the events, just like in the prior volumes, seem random, and the story lacks a plot。 Also, there is a lot of repetition where it is not needed。 Finally, the characters are way too stereotypical。 The setting and co This is a very anti-religious volume。 Unlike the prior volumes, it feels more biased towards certain ideologies and political systems。As for the story itself, while it starts with the annexation of Van, it continues with the reforms in Elfrieden, which makes it lack continuity。 Many of the events, just like in the prior volumes, seem random, and the story lacks a plot。 Also, there is a lot of repetition where it is not needed。 Finally, the characters are way too stereotypical。 The setting and conversations are not realistic in the slightest。 And, this story is obviously geared towards young boys with certain proclivities。。。 This, in effect, makes it frustrating for female - or respectable - readers。On the other hand, the historical examples are interesting。 While the bias seeps through the words, the examples are informative nonetheless。 。。。more

It ends the rebuild arc。

3/4 del volumen estuvo aburrido, 3/5 de calificación, y pensé en dejar de leer la novela porque se estaba yendo a una historia de romance/harem。 La última parte estuvo muy buena, elevándolo a 4/5 de calificación, ya que se respondieron unas dudas que se plantearon desde el primer volumen y hubo una sensación de que la historia que se estaba contando finalizó。 El autor mencionó como la historia ahora irá en otra dirección, a tal punto que la novela web cambió de nombre a partir de este momento, y 3/4 del volumen estuvo aburrido, 3/5 de calificación, y pensé en dejar de leer la novela porque se estaba yendo a una historia de romance/harem。 La última parte estuvo muy buena, elevándolo a 4/5 de calificación, ya que se respondieron unas dudas que se plantearon desde el primer volumen y hubo una sensación de que la historia que se estaba contando finalizó。 El autor mencionó como la historia ahora irá en otra dirección, a tal punto que la novela web cambió de nombre a partir de este momento, ya que el reino ya fue reconstruido。 La historia todavía tiene mucho potencial。 Estos primeros 4 volúmenes fueron la base del mundo e historia。 。。。more

The more I read of the series, the more I am surprised by it。 By now you know it is not a tense action heavy story, instead focusing on kingdom and character development。 The surprise is mostly with how the author draws in world history and literature to deal with the local trouble even going so far as to point out that his conclusions might be wrong。 Of course, I also like how little things from earlier parts come back and make a lot more sense。 Here we get a new member to his inner circle, how The more I read of the series, the more I am surprised by it。 By now you know it is not a tense action heavy story, instead focusing on kingdom and character development。 The surprise is mostly with how the author draws in world history and literature to deal with the local trouble even going so far as to point out that his conclusions might be wrong。 Of course, I also like how little things from earlier parts come back and make a lot more sense。 Here we get a new member to his inner circle, how some of his plans work too well and we finally learn some of the behind the scene planning by others。 Looking forward to the next part。 Of course, by now you should know what to expect and this part does not disappoint。 。。。more

Imagine being summoned to a fantasy world and given the opportunity to rebuild a country using modern economic and political theory and see those results bear fruit in front of your eyes。This is the fourth book in a light novel series with a novel concept。 At it's surface it seems like a generic isekai (popular genre where protagonist is summoned or reborn in another world); but reading it, it becomes obvious that much though was put in the world building and character development。 What makes it Imagine being summoned to a fantasy world and given the opportunity to rebuild a country using modern economic and political theory and see those results bear fruit in front of your eyes。This is the fourth book in a light novel series with a novel concept。 At it's surface it seems like a generic isekai (popular genre where protagonist is summoned or reborn in another world); but reading it, it becomes obvious that much though was put in the world building and character development。 What makes it different from the other titles of it's ilk is it's use of the popular tropes。 The favorite ones are present, like a harem of love interests, and the use of magic, but the main protagonist is not too overpowered。 Granted, application of real world concepts can be found in other titles but he's more of a student of the humanities so science, mathematics, and engineering isn't his forte。 It's his application of modern socio-economic and political theory that's the main draw。 He can quote both Machiavelli and Sun Tzu; and understand the impact of the Cold War and the fallout from the collapse of the U。S。S。R。; in that way, it's fascinating。I've experienced this story before in manga form and I admit I prefer it that way。 The novel can be all over the place。 It happened that its manga adaptation had a capable artist who has cut a lot of the fat from the novel and still produced an epic adaptation that has tighter plotting。 The original form is still very good, so it may be a matter of preference。 It's still a damn good story。 。。。more

Slow and repetitive。This book marks the end of the first arc in this serie。 Unfortunately most of the characters are not developed at all, although nothing new is introduce in the story。 A new character is introduce in the relationship of the main character but it feels forced and not in line with the story。 The author repeats the same subjects many times, making this book a little boring and slow to read compared with previous volumes。 This book marks a good ending in this serie for me。

★★★★☆ For all around entertainment and excellent writing。★★★★★ For the informative peek into the writer's creation process in the Midword, the excellent use of foreshadowing and reveals, and the fact that a book filled with side stories was written so well, I never lost my patience or got bored as I have a tendency to do when the story arc isn't King。 I am not a fan of the polygamy/harem aspect of the story, but I am a fan of this author's writing style。 In this volume, the author tackled slaver ★★★★☆ For all around entertainment and excellent writing。★★★★★ For the informative peek into the writer's creation process in the Midword, the excellent use of foreshadowing and reveals, and the fact that a book filled with side stories was written so well, I never lost my patience or got bored as I have a tendency to do when the story arc isn't King。 I am not a fan of the polygamy/harem aspect of the story, but I am a fan of this author's writing style。 In this volume, the author tackled slavery, refugees, museums, history, technology, and romance, all with a deft touch while maintaining a good balance between characterization, entertainment, and serious topics。 Bravo! 。。。more

You will find it very slow in the beginning 2/3s but then the ending is the savings grace also the midword by the author helps you understand why it the starting book had to be the way it was hence you see it in completely different light。

King Souma can finally take it easy。 Almost。 The Principality of Amidonia, to the west, is a recurring thorn in his paw, but it goes without saying that after multiple military battles, suppressing a protracted civil war, and cleaning house of a dozen or so corrupt nobles 。 。 。 after all of these adventures, Soma deserves some respite。 REALIST HERO 。 。 。 #4 represents the breath of fresh air the king and his subjects take for themselves as the cool and calm winter season approaches。This volume i King Souma can finally take it easy。 Almost。 The Principality of Amidonia, to the west, is a recurring thorn in his paw, but it goes without saying that after multiple military battles, suppressing a protracted civil war, and cleaning house of a dozen or so corrupt nobles 。 。 。 after all of these adventures, Soma deserves some respite。 REALIST HERO 。 。 。 #4 represents the breath of fresh air the king and his subjects take for themselves as the cool and calm winter season approaches。This volume is a bit dull and includes a rather protracted flashback。 Given the events in the previous entries of this novel series, one may be excused for skipping this volume and settling for a five-page summary elsewhere。 One can't help but pine for the amblings of war or the curiously twisted politics of negotiating with the Gran Chaos Empire witnessed in previous volumes。Roughly speaking, one-third of REALIST HERO 。 。 。 #4 is a reflection on Souma's encounter with princess Roroa Amidonia, whom through one or two clever tricks, managed to vend herself and her nation to the ruler of the Kingdom of Elfrieden。 Too bad Roroa is a horrible cliché and it's too bad the narrative refuses to free itself from this patch of brambles for several hundred pages。 The girl herself is thorn in the book's otherwise merciful dalliance with domesticity。 To wit, Roroa speaks with a south-central dialect, eschews general manners and permits her ego to take flight as she pleases; the girl, oddly and obviously, is the most unneeded and out-of-place facet in a novel whose out-of-placeness has long since found its stride。The book's lone highlight is a somewhat-cheesy but ultimately sweet side story involving a slave trader who falls in love with one of his charges。 A young man named Ginger Camus inherits a trading post for human labor。 But instead of selling the people on the cheap and splitting up families to make a quick buck, the guy does his utmost to find legitimate housing and work for the people under his care。 Camus even goes so far as to properly feed, clothe, and educate the enslaved people。 Sandria, a raccoon-person slave, takes to helping Camus through this series of good deeds。 And in the end, Camus, Sandria, and the reader are rewarded for wishing and hoping for making the most of a desperate but uniquely dark scenario。REALIST HERO 。 。 。 #4 isn't a particularly good volume because nothing consequential actually occurs。 Here and there, some secrets leak out, and there's a hearty conversation between Souma and Maria (Gran Chaos Empire), but all in all, this volume reads like one long side story。 Roroa Amidonia comes into the household, furthering the harem subtheme, but this was predictable ages ago。 As the next phase of the novel series shifts into gear, a few obvious elements emerge: conflict with the Orthodox Papal State of Lunaria, building relations with the Nine-Headed Dragon Archipelago Union, and the ever-crowding of the royal palace with suitable second-wives。 。。。more

This volume finally answers a question that had been bothering me since the first book: why did the king suddenly decide to hand over his throne to Souma? The answer is better than I was expecting。

This is where my suspension of disbelief faltered, as everything progressed too smoothly, and too fast。 Would have been alright if everything had been skipped between Roroa joining the gang and the new years' chapter。 This is where my suspension of disbelief faltered, as everything progressed too smoothly, and too fast。 Would have been alright if everything had been skipped between Roroa joining the gang and the new years' chapter。 。。。more

E chegou ao fim a primeira parte da história。 Ate agora me diverti lendo apesar dos seus porblemas, mas espero que a partir de agora os próximos volumes corrigam os erros que teve até agora。

This seems like a good place for me to stop reading this series。 The harem aspects are really beginning to annoy me, and since this completes the first story arc, I'm going to go ahead and say I'm done。 This seems like a good place for me to stop reading this series。 The harem aspects are really beginning to annoy me, and since this completes the first story arc, I'm going to go ahead and say I'm done。 。。。more

Honestly there was very little conflict in this volume。 It dragged a lot and not much was accomplished during the volume。 It was still cute, and the character interactions kept me reading。 Hopefully the next volume advances the story more and deals with more major conflicts。 2。5/5

This volume of Realist focuses more on Souma's relationship (or lack thereof physically) with Liscia and on what happened to Amedonia after volume 3。I really enjoy the real world history that influences Souma's decision making。 Lots of stuff that I, as a horribly ill informed and not big lover of history, have no prior knowledge of。 Some of it was tough to get my head around though, so I'll definitely want to look into some of these further, and re-read these volumes when the opportunity arises This volume of Realist focuses more on Souma's relationship (or lack thereof physically) with Liscia and on what happened to Amedonia after volume 3。I really enjoy the real world history that influences Souma's decision making。 Lots of stuff that I, as a horribly ill informed and not big lover of history, have no prior knowledge of。 Some of it was tough to get my head around though, so I'll definitely want to look into some of these further, and re-read these volumes when the opportunity arises again。Sort of a mixed bag for me, which is unfortunate coming off of an already weak chapter in volume 3。 I felt like the harem aspect has really taken over。 I do enjoy seeing a focus on side character relationships, though obviously those get less time to develop and are more rushed than Souma's slow burn fiancee relationships。 This volume does end with something crazy, and I'm hopeful that the series will continue to challenge us in that regard, betraying expectations about the world and about our characters。 If this series remains "comfortable", I think I might be disappointed。 We have the setup for insanity if they play their cards right。 。。。more

A solid conclusion to the first ark。A good wrap up to a solid beginning to a quality series。 Thank you so much for all your hard work!

Another volume of dealing with the aftermath of volume 2, only this time there's nothing urgent, so it's just taking care of loose ends。 And of course the introduction of yet another girl to Souma's harem。 While Roroa is a good character, I wish she'd become an antagonist, because at this point Souma needs someone who can stand against other than mustache twirling villains。 Another volume of dealing with the aftermath of volume 2, only this time there's nothing urgent, so it's just taking care of loose ends。 And of course the introduction of yet another girl to Souma's harem。 While Roroa is a good character, I wish she'd become an antagonist, because at this point Souma needs someone who can stand against other than mustache twirling villains。 。。。more
