      Looks like we will get the manga of it

      I certainly wouldn't be so sure, a hint that straightforward is too unusual for Sam.

        Yeah, not putting my guessing eggs in the basket yet. I'm guessing it could be this, but it could be something else involving bug creatures? Bug ghosts (isn't there that one LN that had an anime where the people controlled bug monsters, Mushiuta or something?)?

          @terrence it totally refers to the Demi-Dragon Worm battle at the beginning of Infinite Dendrogram

          Oh yeah, I upvoted this because I like these sorts of collisions with modern world aspects and isekai worlds.

            Judging this by 11 chapters of manga, the story is pretty generic.
            MC finds a loophole that lets him power level super fast and it makes himself crazy strong. He obtains a bunch of skill points and abilities. What does he do with that?
            Does he help his companions level up?
            Does he make new gear for his companions to protect them better on their travels?
            Does he get intimate with countless woman throwing themselves at him?

            None of the sort, he goes sightseeing around the world. The story is kinda boring and uneventful, the MC is a dullard. While there are some heartwarming moments here and there, its just not interesting enough.

              Except he didn't intend to find the loophole, nor did he intentionally take advantage of it. It was just something that happened as a natural consequence of doing his job. After becoming crazy strong, he... kept doing his job.

                That is why he is a boring, most uninteresting and unimaginative character I have seen in Isekai so far. If anything, he does not feel like a character at all, he is more of a dead fish being swept by the stream.

                  @zing I have not read the manga but is it possible that you are looking for what isn't there when instead it should be looking for what is there? I mean I can think of quite a few series where is pretty lax and more slice of life or tourist and sightseer than action.

                    Maybe? By 11th chapter the impotent MC started to annoy me, he is just too passive, completely lacks ambition. Calling him an underachiever is an insult to underachievers. After reading the manga, I came to realise that this is not for me.

                            Oh interesting. Maybe it's gonna have some more chances to get licensed since it's "only" 10 volumes and it's already complete.

                            @TheRedJet Could you update the first post and maybe add some tags to the topic (especially the "complete" tag)?

                              Interestingly enough, it looks like Bookwalker and Kadokawa don't list the series anymore. So maybe they lost the rights.

                                Yeah, according to the author the contract for the novel ran out, and they chose not to renew because they had a disagreement about politics or something????
