Description
“Hey there! I’m a Dark God! Not a bad one though, I swear!” So quipped the dark god (or so he called himself) before he sent my classmates and me away into another world, following our deaths in an accident that no one could have seen coming. And what a swell guy he was, creating new skills at our behest and offering us all kinds of support. How is he a dark god again? …There definitely used to be a time when I thought that way, at least. We should have been more careful. There are probably dozens of my classmates who thought they were getting their hands on a real cheat skill, something that would make them invincible, but now they have to deal with some rather unfortunate repercussions. I mean, he was pretty clear right from the start that we wouldn’t be getting any actual cheat skills. I suppose they might just be reaping what they sow, in the end. Oh, me? Well, I’m joining up with a couple of friends. We’ve known each other since we were kids, and now we’re set on leading lives where we won’t have too much to worry about. This new world we’re in might feel like a game, but it’s really anything but.

Transition to Another World, Landmines Included Review & Spoilers - Novel Translator
My Thoughts on Transition to Another World, Landmines Included
"Transition to Another World, Landmines Included" certainly has a catchy title, and the premise of a class being transported to another world with skill-based reincarnation options is intriguing. However, after diving into the available chapters and considering other reader experiences, I have mixed feelings. It’s a story with potential, but it might not be for everyone.
First Impressions
Initially, the concept of "landmines" in the form of skills with hidden drawbacks is what hooked me. The idea that characters have to be careful about the cheats they pick is a refreshing twist on the usual isekai power fantasy. However, the execution seems to be a point of contention, with some feeling the landmine aspect is quickly glossed over.
What Works Well
I appreciate the focus on a more realistic "slow life" in another world. Instead of instant power-ups and world-saving quests, the characters grapple with basic survival, finding jobs, and learning to navigate their new environment. Many seem to enjoy the character interactions and the attempts at world-building. The translator's efforts seem to be appreciated, with praise given for the quality of translation. I do like the idea that the characters aren't just handed everything and have to work for their progress. There also seems to be a decent amount of detail put into the characters themselves, especially their behaviors.
Areas of Concern
My main reservation stems from concerns about the pacing and the apparent lack of a clear overarching plot. Several readers noted that the story devolves into a slice-of-life with little to no action or suspense. The perceived misandrism is another significant drawback. Some find that the female characters are unrealistically competent while the male characters are pathetic, which can be off-putting. The realism that the author tries to add also ends up hurting the story, as the characters fail to have fun and the readers don't either.

Final Verdict
"Transition to Another World, Landmines Included" has a unique premise and some strong points, particularly its focus on a more grounded isekai experience. However, the slow pacing, lack of a clear plot, and potential issues with character portrayal might deter some readers. If you're looking for a fast-paced, action-packed isekai, this probably isn't it. But if you enjoy slice-of-life stories with a focus on character interactions and are willing to overlook some flaws, it might be worth a try. I'd recommend going in with tempered expectations and seeing if the story's charm outweighs its shortcomings for you.
