Description
The protagonist, Shuto Mitsuki (also known as Shoot), is a student at a prestigious private middle school in Tokyo, suffering from severe bullying. He’s tormented by delinquent classmates, and even those who try to help him end up becoming targets as well. A popular girl in his class falsely accuses him of confessing his love to her and stalking her, publicly humiliating him. His classmates and teacher turn a blind eye, prioritizing self-preservation over helping him. Longing for revenge, Shoot one day witnesses a mysterious black vortex emanating from his basement. Gathering his courage, he enters it – and finds himself transported to another world! After defeating numerous terrifying monsters in this other world, he returns home. While stopping at a convenience store, he’s confronted by a gang of delinquents. However, it’s the delinquents who end up on the ground, defeated! “I… I’m still strong here…? Then… revenge is mine…!!” Shoot vows revenge on the bullies who assaulted him, spread lies, and framed him; on the most popular girl; on the classmates and teachers who conspired to cover it all up; and on the school itself. He’s determined to live a cheat-like, overpowered life in the real world.

My Thoughts on I Will Get Revenge on My Bullies and Enjoy Their Downfall Using the Power I Gained in Another World
This title certainly grabs your attention, doesn't it? "I Will Get Revenge on My Bullies and Enjoy Their Downfall Using the Power I Gained in Another World" promises a dark and twisted tale of retribution, and it mostly delivers on that promise, though perhaps not always in the most satisfying way.
First Impressions
Initially, I was drawn in by the premise. A bullied protagonist gaining immense power and enacting revenge? It's a classic power fantasy with a dark twist. I anticipated a journey of catharsis, watching the tables turn on those who wronged him. The blend of school life, tragedy, and fantasy elements seemed like it could create a compelling narrative.
What Works Well
The translation quality appears to be solid, which is always a huge plus. Nothing pulls you out of a story faster than clunky or confusing prose. The author also seems to have a clear vision for the protagonist, portraying him as immature and flawed, even while wielding incredible power. This acknowledgment of the MC's warped mindset is a crucial element that prevents the story from becoming a purely celebratory revenge spree.
Areas of Concern
However, and this is a significant "however," the execution of the revenge itself seems to be where the story falters. While the desire for payback is understandable, the level of brutality described goes far beyond justified retaliation and ventures into the realm of outright villainy. I found myself increasingly uncomfortable with the MC's actions, questioning whether I should even be rooting for him. The lack of visible character growth, particularly in his moral compass, is a definite weakness.

Final Verdict
Ultimately, "I Will Get Revenge on My Bullies and Enjoy Their Downfall Using the Power I Gained in Another World" is a difficult novel to recommend wholeheartedly. While the premise is intriguing and the translation is well done, the excessive violence and lack of character growth detract significantly from the overall experience. If you're looking for a dark revenge fantasy and don't mind morally questionable actions, this might be up your alley. However, if you prefer protagonists with some semblance of a moral code, you might want to steer clear. For me, it's a 2.5 out of 5.
