TNT: Saint’s Power Volume 01 by Tachibana Yuka

Hey all this week I’m back with another Isekai series for Translation Necessary Thursday. It’s Saint’s Power Volume 01 by Tachibana Yuka!

Plot: The plot is pretty slow paced for an Isekai though considering it’s mainly a Shoujo series that isn’t too surprising as it’s not aimed at males that tend to prefer action and adventure. I enjoyed this first volume quite a bit.

Characters: Sei is our main character and is pretty interesting, she doesn’t go out adventuring or anything like that she just goes and works in the Medicinal Plants division, which is kind of hilarious compared to most Isekai. The rest of the cast is interesting as well, though Sei being a bit of an airhead she doesn’t really understand what she’s doing most of the time and it’s kind of hilarious to see the rest of the cast react to her.

Overall: A fun slow paced Isekai series with a female lead.

For those who like: Isekai, Powerful Female Leads, Slow Paced Plots, Interesting Cast of characters.

Not for those who don’t like: Any of the above.

TNT: KamiOto Volume 03 by Roy

Hey all I’m back with the third entry in Ryouma’s adventures for this week’s Translation Necessary Thursday. It’s KamiOto Volume 03 by Roy!

Plot: This continues Ryouma’s efforts at becoming self-sufficient and not relying on the Duke and his family as much. It’s a fun volume for the most part with Ryouma meeting his new employees and then going on a short adventure with his friend Elia.

Characters: We get some pretty interesting newcomers in this volume, though I think Leelin is my favorite. The rest of the cast is just as good as previous volumes.

Overall: A decent volume, but very light on action.

TNT: KamiOto Volume 02 by Roy

This week for Translation Necessary Thursday I’m back with the sequel to the Isekai series I covered last time. It’s KamiOto Volume 02 by Roy!\

Plot: This volume is just as laid back as the first one, with Ryouma opening his own business being the main focus. If you were hoping he’d branch out from slimes you will be disappointed though.

Characters: We get introduced to a few new characters, but Ryouma is still the star of this show and frankly the newcomers aren’t all that impressive for the most part.

Overall: This is an okay sequel, but it’s very much a slow paced series, so if you were expecting tons of action you will be disappointed.

TNT: KamiOto Volume 01 by Roy

This week for Translation Necessary Thursday I’m back with another Light Novel series. It’s KamiOto Volume 01 by Roy!

Plot: This is a fairly typical Isekai/Tensei story, although it takes it along the slow paced and slice of life variety rather than the action filled one of other series. That isn’t to say that there is no action, there is some, but it’s not the focus of the story. I personally enjoyed this volume quite a bit, even with how light on the action it is.

Characters: Ryouma is our main character and he’s a fairly laid back individual. The fact that his monster companion of choice is Slimes is a bit odd, but it fits him well. The rest of the cast is just as great as well.

Overall: A solid first volume in a series that is fairly good, if very laid back compared to most Isekai stories.

For those who like: Isekai, Tensei, Fantasy, Magic, Slow Paced Plot, Good Cast of Characters.

Not for those who don’t like: Any of the above.

TNT: Almadianos Eiyuuden Volume 01 by Takami Ryousen

This week for Translation Necessary Thursday I’m back with another Light Novel series. It’s Almadianos Eiyuuden Volume 01 by Takami Ryousen!

Plot: The plot is pretty good, although it takes the Isekai and Tensei genres in a rather new and interesting way. Instead of taking a character from Earth we get an all powerful character from some random fantasy world who is so bored that he ends up hitching a ride in the head of one of his other incarnations in another world. The fact that he ends up being ignored half the time by said incarnation is just half the fun. That being said this does have a more romantic bent from what I can remember so if you don’t like your action and adventure novels having that you will not enjoy this series.

Characters: Bernst and Kurats are the leads, with Bernst being the old man who is hitching a ride and Kurats being his incarnation. Kurats is kind of a dolt though. That being said Lunaria is probably my favorite character, if only because she’s the somewhat sensible one. The rest of the cast is fun as well, but Lunaria is my favorite by and far.

Overall: A fun series at least thus far from what I’ve read in this single volume alone.

For those who like: Isekai, Tensei, Action, Adventure, Harems, Fun Plot, Varied Cast of Characters.

Not for those who don’t like: Any of the above.
