Itsamantis - Profile

Liked this novel quite a bit, the background felt relatively generic for a villainess fantasy style novel, however certain aspects of the story gave it a unique tinge from other relatively mediocre iterations of this genre. The story writing was also relatively good, although not anything extremely remarkable, it was quite good. I did find a few odd plot holes here and there, but since they're not extremely noticeable/intrusive I don't think they affected my reading experience much. Overall quite a good series which deserves more attention than it has right now.

A short review after completing 60 chapters of this novel. The most unique part of this novel I felt was incorporating the protagonists mental disability of prosopagnosia, the fact that when he reincarnated as the game character, he still wasn't immediately cured of his disability but instead it was shown how he tried to deal with it and survive in that world felt quite refreshing. The mcs personality felt relatively generic, though it was still interesting. As for the plot in general, it was quite good in my opinion. The story progression and character development was also quite good. My biggest critique of this series however would be the R18 parts. They felt completely unnecessary and unimportant towards the plot. In fact adding them only seemed to decrease my investment in the characters and story. I feel this novel would've been better off if it was left as a generic fantasy isekai story and not led on as an 'eroge'. Overall, I would say I quite liked this series. Barring the critique I mentioned, this is probably one of the more unique and interesting series I have read of the isekai genre.
