This is a good series.

Oh? I’ve seen but the synopsis seemed uninteresting too me.

I’ve started a new one which I have high hopes for so far it’s not bad.

My daughter left and came back as an S class adventurer.

I just watched 3 episodes of How a Realist Hero Rebuilt the Kingdom and now I'm ordering volumes 1-11 in paperback.

Worldbuilding isekai is definitely my genre, but whether or not it was likely actually a good story is what I found out by starting the anime. I'm pretty confident that it is.

I’ve heard the light novel is pretty good

I thought it was strange when I first heard anime can be produced just to advertise an LN, but I suppose my thinking so is a bit ironic given that I'm apparently the exact customer modeled.

I bought volumes 1-11 and I'm on 6 now. It's good.

Are we talking the Realist Hero LNs and anime still?

Momogari · Post by **Momogari** » 11 Sep 2021, 23:39

It seemed so, yes

Well now I’ve heard it’s good from you too. I’ve watched some of the anime, not much. What I’ve seen interests me.

Is it me or is the main character not OP in this Isekai and he has to figure out clever ways to make it in his new world? Having to depend on his previously gained knowledge from his education in Japan to survive?

Momogari · Post by **Momogari** » 12 Sep 2021, 01:03

Yeah, he's not OP. He gets a weird power that honestly would be able to become cool as a fighting hero but he's not a fighting hero, so he uses it to do paperwork.
Surviving isn't really an issue since he becomes king of a large country basically a few minutes into the story. But he doesn't have detailed science knowledge that he can transfer over since he was a humanities student, and the technology is too different for some things anyway, so it's not like his knowledge of japan is that OP either.

yup, is not you, I too get the same when started watching it.

And truth, his "power" psychokinesis, not suite him much for fight.

btw, I doubting to buy a KOBO e-Reader... or renew with a new Kindle. Problem, is Kindle does not read epub ( so I have to convert all my JCN books) ...
Do youn have any fishical ereader ? or use more web/Apps in PC/Macs, Android/iOS ??

Ryuuko · Post by **Ryuuko** » 12 Sep 2021, 12:57

I have a Kindle Oasis and it requires I have ePubs converted too before I download them. But I like how it works after that. Definitely my preferred way to read an e-book. Otherwise I read on my desktop then on my phone.

Bruh, if he focused on weapons training, he'd be what, six-sword style now?
Given that he also has perception around each object he controls, that could be an awesome combat ability.

I got used to reading ebooks.
I recently learned a limitation of real paper books.
I cannot read them in the bath.

If it's which reader, then it doesn't matter. Phones and tablets can do all of it too. Epub reader apps are free. I'm pretty sure the only reason to get a specialized device for reading is how the screen technology affects your eyes.

Ryuuko · Post by **Ryuuko** » 12 Sep 2021, 13:51

That’s why I have one. Mine also has a lit screen that auto adjusts for lighting so it makes it easy to read with dim or no light too.

I’m thinking I’m going to watch more and get at least the first LN for a Realist Hero.
