Description

Hiroto Domori (Domori Hiroto)was born into the Domori family, a family of the strongest spirit swordsman who inherited the unusual abilities. Because, he inherited spiritual and magical powers from his father and mother that contradicts each other. If only the magical side was sealed, his spiritual power simply leaked out and he was unable to use either of them, resulting in a peculiar constitution that prevented him from inheriting his powers. For this reason, he received training in the Sendo from his grandfather (Kazura) Tenzo’s acquaintance Soni. Yuto showed his natural ability in learning the Sendo. Through the process, he learned that Senki does not repel either spiritual or magical power, and was able to wield the powerful and unparalleled power of simultaneous use of spiritual and magical power… That power came at a serious price. When he enters high school, his grandfather Kazura, a super free spirit, spends all his money on living expenses, he is kicked out of his home for a reckless reason because he is having a hard time making ends meet, and he enrolls in Horajin Kibayashi High School, which allows him to pay his tuition as long as he can pay in full. He starts high school life with his childhood friend Mari, who played with Yuto in the past, and his friends Ichigo and Shizuka, but due to various misfortunes, the family’s finances are in a state of flux. Unable to find a good part-time job and unable to shake off his financial worries, Yuto decides to take the World Ability Agency’s rank certification test, a taboo in the Domori family, in order to make ends meet.

My Thoughts on Person with An Inferior Ability Returning From Demon World (LN)

After diving into "Person with An Inferior Ability Returning From Demon World (LN)," I've come away with mixed feelings. It's a novel that presents some interesting concepts, but unfortunately, struggles with execution in several key areas. While there are elements that might appeal to some readers, I found myself ultimately underwhelmed.

First Impressions

Initially, the premise intrigued me. The idea of a seemingly weak protagonist returning from a harsh environment like the Demon World, only to be underestimated, has potential. However, the early chapters didn't quite grab me as I'd hoped. I was looking for a compelling hook to draw me in, but instead, the story felt somewhat generic and predictable.

What Works Well

It's not all bad, though. The concept of the MC being part of a supernatural organization that tackles monsters and evil forces is appealing. I find the idea of the protagonist traveling around the world with his female companion to solve problems in this setting quite interesting. The world-building has glimpses of promise, and the potential for exciting action sequences is definitely there.

Areas of Concern

My biggest issue lies with the protagonist. He comes across as overly passive and, frankly, a bit of a pushover. Despite being supposedly powerful, he allows himself to be treated poorly, which is frustrating to read. This lack of backbone makes it difficult to connect with him or root for his success. The romantic development also feels rushed and unearned, with female characters seemingly falling for him with little to no compelling reason. The writing itself can be repetitive and clunky, with dialogue during fight scenes feeling unnatural and disruptive. The plot is pretty simple, and there's a lack of originality. This makes the novel not add anything new to the genre and difficult to stay invested in.

Final Verdict

"Person with An Inferior Ability Returning From Demon World (LN)" has a foundation of interesting ideas, but it's ultimately let down by its execution. The generic protagonist, rushed relationships, and inconsistent writing make it a difficult recommendation. While some readers might find enjoyment in the power fantasy aspects, I believe there are stronger options available in the genre.
