Summary

Blast off to adventure!

When Satou Takahiro is swept away from his ordinary life into the world of his favorite video game, a universe of space battles, interstellar colonies, and danger in the vastness of outer space awaits.

Soon, he's living as "Hiro" the mercenary, with a tricked-out spaceship and a babe on each arm! There are space pirates to fight, girls to rescue, and trouble to get into (and hopefully out of). Hiro is going to live his new life to the fullest!

This is the most juvenile power fantasy I've encountered. It reads like the writer is aged thirteen and knocking one out while he wrote. You can smell the well-used waifu body pillow as you listen.

Now it's not all bad. The world building is interesting. Nothing we haven't seen before, but we'll explained and proficient. The narrator is good too. able to embody a number of different characters.

Too bad all those characters are one-note tropes and nothing more. Then there's the misogyny. Within minutes of meeting one of the female characters he's thinking about her tits. This is portrayed as perfectly fine, and not creepy at all. Make no mistake, the main character is a total creep and a psychopath, who thinks nothing of killing people 5 minutes after awakening in his super special space craft from the videogame he's never ever lost at because he's the bestest gamer evar. Are we supposed to like him? Then you have an attempted rape scene used to introduce the next female character.

Oh and the video games references read like the writer has never actually played a video game, but he did watch/read Sword Art Online.

This should never have been published. It would get a B- at best of submitted as a secondary school creative writing project, but it's nowhere near the standard of actual publishable work. It really shows how far the publishing industry has fallen to chasing trends and nostalgia, that THIS is what they chose to translate and publish.

Look even if you're little incel, with a stinky waifu body pillow, who has decided that all your problems are cause by "the females", you can do better than this. Ecchi isekais are common as muck, and there are much better written smutty, misogynist power fantasies out there. Don't waste your precious time on this.

Garbage isekai for only the dumbest of incels

Written for adolescents but not a good influence. Reads like a school boy fantasy essay with the depth of a saucer. Comic misogyny promoting soft drinks.

Pretty bad
