      I've quite enjoyed the manga. I could have sworn that this was suggestion already, as it's a reasonably well-known series, but sure enough it's not in the list of existing suggestions.

        @guspaz Yes I was surprised myself. Got hooked on the Manga today and found the novel soon. I looked through the list and even searched for it but... yeah. So had to put it on the table asap :D

          I was actually planning on suggesting this one after I got back from vacation. I've been following the WN and I'm caught up with it. The WN itself has 1800+ chapters, so they have a lot of content to publish new volumes too. I'd love to see a proper translation of it, the fan translation is not exactly what I'd call great...

          You've got another vote 😁

              Jesus Christ 1800 chapters, as interesting as this sounds i doubt Sam will want to get involved in a series that has the potential to be this excessively long.

                The WN is at 18.5k pages... That is around 50 volumes worth of content.

                  @catstorm The author has been putting out one chapter a day for a few years. He's got quite the output. That said, there are only currently 11 volumes in light novel form.

                    I'm not sure how long the WN chapters, and how many are included in a single LN volume compared to other LNs though. For example Isekai Smartphone contains about 25 WN chapters per volume, with extra content written for the LN only. I have seen another LN that has as many as 45-50 WN chapters per volume (can't recall the name right now).

                    Anyway, if the author keeps writing and has already written that much it just makes me think the story is still good after all this time :)

                        Damn.
                        I keep getting tricked by the title thinking it's another 'Legend' series—the one I want.

                          I love the web novel for this series and it definitely deserves more attention. The characters and world are really interesting and unlike most Isekai series it doesn't fall into the trap of being centred around the protagonist craving Japanese food (apart from 3 chapters of the web novel but that’s like 170 ish chapters in after 3 really good arcs so I’ll just write it off as audience pandering in japan xD). Imo the main character is really well written and a good example of how to write a powerful protagonist, he has powerful innate abilities he was granted but lacks the skills and knowledge to make full use of them. here's hoping it gets picked up and translated, I’d happily buy the entire series if it was ; )

                          while the number of web novel chapters would appear intimidating to any translator, they aren’t the longest chapters out there and the story (from what I’ve heard anyway) is refined and compressed in the LN version.

                            I'd definitely love to see this one translated!

                              I kinda like this manga, would love to see LN licensed and translated.
                              Had a change of heart since a while ago about this story. The protagonist has as much personality as a brick, his powers are kinda all over the place. Any exciting plotlines gets buried in mundane day to day recollection of protagonists daily life.
                              Its just meh.

                                  Well, I like the character designs, though Scythes are horrible weapons in the form that they normally take.

                                  Just make sure that it's also a gun and it will be an awesome weapon.

                                        2k chapters o.O Jeeze...

                                        I know LN chapters tend to be rather short, but still.

                                        Tell me about it, 2k chapters, and 109 WN chapters cover up to the 3rd volume of the LN. At least this is still being translated (WN), most of the WN series I’ve been reading hit dead ends when the translators catched up with the latest chapter and drop it (or dropped prematurely after a few chapters), like “Restraunt to Another World” and “My Entire Class Was Summoned to Another World except for Me”.

                                          @kite-xx @sinnoaria and worst part of all some of it can be taken out completely due to it being repetitive and such. I think that is why the Light novels tend to be further than the Web novel. Judging by illustrations.

                                            A little bump for this one. The LN is up to 16 volumes (last release on 2021/2/10) and the WN is 2800+ chapters. The author so far still keeps posting 1 new WN chapter daily.
