    The Former Assassin Who Got Reincarnated as a Noble Girl Vol.1 - Annoying MC character. I can deal with that type of stoic MC with autism but here it is glorified. As if it’s something “cool” to strife for. The author also has never seen a kid. I get it that MC as a reincarnate has more adult thought patterns, but that every other 6-year-old kid around MC is also a conniving and scheming mastermind. The same goes for the illustrator. They clearly never saw a 6-year-old if that’s how they draw them. Then again, maybe it’s better this way.

    The Trials of Chiyodaku, Vol. 1: Running the Supreme Court of Another World With My Sister - dropped 2 chapters in. Terrible.

    Magic Stone Gourmet: Eating Magical Power Made Me the Strongest Volume 5 - Did not expect a spin-off to Do You Love Your Mom and Her Two-Hit Multi-Target Attacks?. And reading this made me just as uncomfortable.

    Magic Stone Gourmet: Eating Magical Power Made Me the Strongest Volume 6 - Less lusting after his mother and more story. Good. That being said, I feel like the setting in this volume goes thoroughly unused. MC visits a secluded elven village and 95% of this is just about spelunking around in the dungeon-like thingy in there. No exploring this (to this world) totally unique environment. There are some hints of that on the way to the village but once there it’s all “yeah, yeah, whatever… let’s go to the dungeon already”. And even in there, it feels like a PUG run of an instance 2 years into a WoW expansion.

    How a Realist Hero Rebuilt the Kingdom: Volume 18 - This series really isn’t worth reading anymore and wasn’t since 3 sentences into introducing Fuuga. I’ve come this far and I might even finish the series just to be done with it.

      The Former Assassin Who Got Reincarnated as a Noble Girl Vol.1 - I have dropped this midway in second chapter. The MC was just an edgelord in a world where nothing really matters. What the heck happend where you can adopt a commoner and there wasn’t any resistance to it.
