Did I Seriously Just Get Reincarnated as My Gag Character?!

@HarmlessDave And that is one of the things I don't like about skeleton knight, he's so OP it's almost ridicules, the only thing saving it is his opponents are OP too. The end of the church arc is pretty sad though.
I saw the ending winning move coming at least a volume or two ahead (as soon as the MC experienced it), but I still enjoyed it as a junk food series.
One part that was mildly interesting was that he had no actual sword-fighting skills, just the class special moves. So up against a good enough swordsman his monstrous strength wasn't much help.

It was funny how she chased out the old gods of the world, though. That made it interesting again, I think... teaching them a lesson of their own was fun to read.
For the rest, I agree. The description of the story is totally misleading, but considering the story, and it's over-the-top story, I can imagine that was just part of the surprise... or maybe some kind of joke, even... it would fit the funniness of the story, and how casually the protagonist tramples over everything and anything.
(Mwa-ha).

Well, I just finished reading the first volume and I got to say <Spoiler-Free> it is as per the comments above: A junk food for the weekend but nothing special and/or really setting this above any other average OP MC Isekai fantasy out there. In fact, I would play the scumbag here and daringly predict this will go downhill from here on out, as the surprise and "novelty" will wear out.
but Hey, to each their own right?Spoiler-ish thoughts below:
Done, thanks for reading.
This 2022 I will definitely make senpai notice me!!!

@Avatarian surprisingly, I found the 2nd volume to be better than the first
-
@Lily-Garden Well, that is a surprise for me too. Not a "let's give the series another chance" type of surprise though. More of a "maybe j-Novel did right in buying this series."
-
I also found the second volume better than the first. To the point that I'm really hoping the author gets around to writing the promised volume 3 (which is talked about in the afterword as if it's forgone that it's happening, but volume 2 came out just before the pandemic, and volume 3 has not, yet....)

@Avatarian Your comments are still there, even if the spoiler tagging broke this time and won’t reveal them. If someone selects “quote reply” to your message, your comments can be read in the message quotation.

@pcj Wait. I thought the novel & manga were completely dropped. There's actually hope??
-
@Lokison The manga is still covering the First Volume of the LN, so even if it did end up dropped, we probably still have some time before it ends.
-
@Lokison The real answer to that question is "we don't know." The author stated in the afterword for Volume 2 that there was a Volume 3 coming. But it's been 3 or so years since then and it hasn't yet. And the pandemic happened right after volume 2 came out in Japan. So pretty much anything could have happened to the author in the mean time.
