The second<\/a> Neta Character Tensei toka Anmari da!<\/em> volume (“The Labyrinth of Memory”<\/em>) really hammers home how much I dislike Aisha; a main romantic interest who looks\/acts like a child, claims to be an adult, and is ambiguously aged for plausible deniability.

The Afterword also answered my earlier question as to why there were so many more volumes to go despite the original web novel not appearing to have much remaining content: The LNs have apparently diverged enough by this point to become their own story.<\/p>\n

So all-in-all a fairly satisfying installment, and I’m looking forward to seeing where exactly the author intends to take this version.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
