My Thoughts on Isekai Sagishi no Consulting
Alright, let's dive into "Isekai Sagishi no Consulting." This one piqued my interest because it seemed to offer something a little different from the usual isekai fare. Instead of power-leveling and epic quests, we have a cunning protagonist dropped into a fantasy world, and he's got to use his wits to survive. So, did it deliver?
First Impressions
Initially, I was a bit hesitant. The early buzz was overshadowed by translation issues, which is always a major red flag. Thankfully, it seems like a new translator has stepped in, and that alone makes it worth revisiting. The premise, a con artist in a world where he can't lie, relying on wordplay and modern knowledge, is genuinely intriguing.
What Works Well
What really grabbed me was the slice-of-life aspect. It's not about saving the world; it's about solving everyday problems. Bankrupt shop owners, monopolistic merchants, societal issues – the MC tackles them all, turning a profit while (mostly) helping people along the way. I find that kind of grounded approach surprisingly refreshing. The problem-solving is apparently quite clever and even relatable, offering a bit of food for thought. It's also nice to hear that the characters experience genuine growth.
Areas of Concern
The biggest potential downside is the lack of action and adventure. If you're coming in expecting epic battles and magical power-ups, you'll be sorely disappointed. This is a slow burn, a character-driven story that prioritizes problem-solving and slice-of-life elements over high-stakes action.
Final Verdict
"Isekai Sagishi no Consulting" isn't your typical isekai. It's a slice-of-life story with a cunning protagonist using his modern knowledge to solve everyday problems in a fantasy world. If you're looking for something different, something that prioritizes wit and problem-solving over action and adventure, this might be right up your alley. Just be prepared for a slower pace and a focus on character development over world-shattering events. I'm giving it a solid 3.5/5. It’s got potential, and I’m eager to see where the story goes.
