I Reincarnated For Nothing환생은 괜히 해가지고

One of my favourite Toika's novel. It's a hero story who trying to defeat a demon lord so that he can retire and raise a dairy farm (lol).

His struggling (well, not so much) is too funny and Sienna is best girl. There is a nice twist at last chapter which I didn't expect (not in a bad way).

Don't look at Wiki or anything, you will be spoiled too much.

My only problem with toika's novel is his rushed endings and missing people. This guy clumsy at it except for EER.

It's a good read for pass time so try it if you want a relaxing and a occasional chuckling.

The GOOD:
1. It's occasionally clever.
2. It's well-written, and interesting. Some arcs drag on, but overall, its okish
3. The characters (though cliches) are ok.
4. Some of the interactions (though cliches) are amusing and Frequent attempts at humor, sometimes successful.

The BAD:
1. It's very plot-armored and most of story was predictable except ending.
2. So OP. Not even a hint of real threat- or at least one that could pierce the thick plot armor. His innate ability aka his eyes are just a free pass to solve easily every problem that comes to their way. Traps, useless. Ancient forbidden magic, useless. Camouflaged enemies, useless. Hidden curses, you know the answer.
3. The plot armor is thicker. . I know every MC in story has plot armour, but author should not used in such straightforward way.


Overall it's an acceptable read, recommended when you are bored and have nothing to read.

Average novel, good enough to pass the time. Terrible ending tho

For those reading this, I strongly suggest you don't open the wiki for this novel either before or while reading this novel. After reading up to chapter 154, I got so curious about

So, I got curious and opened wiki. I got spoiled so hard that I got scared and have to temporarily stopped reading this novel. I really, really regretted doing that. So, I hope new readers won't experience that.

This is the first time a spoiler scared me. So, the fear is quite bad. Like, damn bad.

A decent novel that will help you with your boredom

normal at first glance, lacking in romance but fun to read totally recomended to all.

An enjoyable Toika novel. Recommended.

In resume: a very good and fun read. Recommend to give it a try, and if you don't like it even after ending the first dungeon, go to another because the novel follows a stable pace till the end.

While with its own share of problems, the novel is quite good, especially as the author made a heavenly use of old cliches like 'hero x demon king' or 'love at first sight'.
The story itself focuses on their hero journey to defeat the demon king, with good romance development with the main waifu (+ some few scenes with other harem girls), comedy (I personally loved it), fights (that though interesting, lacks that special tension).
The world-building follow a precise development, focusing more on the 'where we are now' or 'where will go after this' than 'the world is...', the same being applied to some other things like power-system, with occasional tips here and there.
The plot itself is filled with plot twists (like, really), with many 'predicable' events of the 'hero x demon king' cliche becoming far more interesting and fun to read. Except for that, the story is rather simple, and due to the time-skips on more static scenarios like dungeon clearing or level grinding, it can feel a bit rushed but far from harming the novel pace.
The romance, if we are to focus just on the lovely main waifu, is damn great in many ways. But if we focus it as a whole, including the harem, then it will lose some points due to the novel focusing just on the main waifu while the rest supported/followed as companions with feelings for the MC, with the MC answering some of them in the end (something I found a real pity, for the other waifus are interesting in their own way too).

Welp, I finished the novel and I'm too lazy to give an actual lengthy review and the other two reviews are pretty good in describing the novel. I enjoyed it as a good read, not the best mind you, but enjoyable and had very similar vibes to TCF (Trash of the Count's Family) in terms of the MC + surrounding characters. Honestly give it a try, it was entertaining.

I wasn't really expecting much from the novel because of negative reviews and low ratings (on other sites) but after reading the novel it pleasantly surprised me that the novel is actually great for casual read, but just don't expect much.

Demon lords and heroes, extremely cliche settings with either hero rebirths as demon because of betrayal or oposite and vice versa. You can expect traits like calm, cunning, mature, knowledgeable etc in mc's personality. There is no heavy past like betrayal, revenge, backstabbing, an unachievable goal to mc which makes plot rather simpler and casual.

World building is simple and with the knowledge of the mc from previous life author tries to build the world. For example in some countries there shady organization behind the king, some races discriminate against their own for different skin colours, god is fake with pontiff being corrupt, some secret dungeons for fast leveling and many more.

There are several plot twist in the story which makes story interesting and makes reader going only if you enjoyed previous story. Author drops small details throughout the novel for foreshadowing, so if you use bit of brain and give small bit of a attention to this details than you shouldn't be surprised for plot twist.

In many similar types of novels there isn't given a reason why mc goes under rebirth in past after he dies but here author has clearly stated the the reason of his rebirths, so if you wanna know stick till the end.
