Because It Kept NOT Doing What You Expect From Regular Isekais - Blog Posts

7 months ago

This novel was one of the first novels I read, so imagine my surprise when I was looking for something else, and nothing was even close to being as good at this.

How it treats KRS past life, his character and how intersects with the rest. And, yes, acting like an actual adult was refreshing, I also read a stupid amount of romantic Isekai and it's so weird for these women to act like they are 25 or 30 like they are supposed to be.

And thank every cosmic power, when he isekaided on a younger body, he didn't feel attracted to a minor. Because that apparently is a common factor in the rest of the novels I tried to read.

You know one of my favorite things about this novel?

Is that Cale (Well, Kim Roku Soo) actually acts his age (36)

I personally haven't read many Isekais aimed at male audiences, so I can't speak for those

I have, however read quite a bit of Otome Isekais

And one of the things that annoys me the most about the genre, is when the protagonist, usually an adult woman, gets reincarnated into a baby, a child or a teenager and you sometimes forget their actual age because some of the things they do, some of the decisions they make are /baffling/ when you remember they're a grown ass adult

But with Cale is quite the opposite, people around him are often left scratching their heads at some of his actions and level of maturity ("Aren't you supposed to be 18-20?")

Hell, one time he told Raon that he is "30 years older than him" only to remember mid-phrase that nope, he's actually supposed to be only 15 years older

-Spoilers for P1-

And it's also very funny when Alberu finds out that Cale is, in fact actually older than him, his reaction is pure gold because he's supposed to be the hyung around here you know?
