Synopsis
One night, Eizo, a hapless corporate slave, saves a cat and gets hit by a truck. The cat which seems to be related to a parallel world, in return for his help, grants Eizo a skill of his wish and reincarnates him to another world. Eizo, who has craftsmanship as a hobby and wishes to use this skill for a living, chooses to be reincarnated as a blacksmith. And so he starts his life in another world as a blacksmith just as he wishes. However, Eizo's creations are at another different level that will shake this new world.

My Thoughts
This a really comfy, slow isekai fantasy story. I'd be really interested in seeing a license for this light novel after reading the manga. Plus, one of the FL's is a tiger beast girl, so I was already sold on the concept.

Oh, man, I really hope they pick this one up. I've loved the manga, but this sounds like my kind of light novel all the way. A perfect fit for J-Novel Club.

So happy this got licensed by JNC, this was right on the top of my list after reading the manga.
