A short summary: Keima gets isekaid and now has to build/manage a dungeon Overlordstyle so he doesnt die. Abuse the magic system fend off invading heroes exploit the loopholes duel other dungeons. And most importantly do everything so it all works on its own so Keima can just chill cause all he really wants to do is to sleep. I remember starting it somewhere around the time I just got into weeb stuff when it had like 2/5 volumes of the web novel yup the original one translated. 20162017 maybe? I would get so excited whenever a new volume got translated I just binged it disregarding sleep university and whatnot. Dunno this concept with town building mind games doing stuff not as intended and exploring was just scratching the itch I never knew I had it still does. And the industry wasnt really plagued with isekais then so it was still feeling fresh I guess. Then just as arc ended the release group I followed had stopped translating. And as I didnt manage to find any other translations at that time I just put it on hold never completely forgetting about it. Fastforward a bunch of years later to 2023. I decided to check how LDMs doing and managed to find the treasure I was hoping to find all this time the full translation of the light novel version. And well I just kindabinged it from start to finish in three weeks guess being unemployed has its merits. And yeah its alright. I feel like it did have a paradigm hehe shift in its focus starting somewhere around the part Ive stopped reading in the past from being mostly about town management and exploiting loopholes to almost exclusively adventuring and politics. Dont get me wrong its not that its a bad shift but it just wasnt the reason Ive fallen in love with it all those years ago. The later parts werent as interesting to me personally but I still wanted to observe this story to know what comes next how Keima will wiggle his ass out of problems and when will he finally just get to chill. LDM shifts more into a stupid power fantasy the further it goes. Sure there are some questionable loophole exploits in the earlier parts of the novel what else the weakass Keima is supposed to do? It WAS fun anyway unlike the later parts where its just either simply overpower or be saved by a whimsical plot armor sidecharacter. The last volumes also felt quite rushed though that might be me thinking oh no its already ending or just because in one of the afterwords the author complains about being forced to end the series soon. Though even if the author had more volumes to write it would likely not bring anything new to the table so Im mostly fine with it. The ending... is certainly an ending of all time. real spoilers beware To summarize I dont hate it and Im happy to let it end here. The conclusion? Objectively... I dont care about being objective. Be it nostalgia having spent most of the month reading the novel or whatever the reason I now feel like a part of my life was torn away. Ah this bittersweet feeling that hurts so good.
