Just an enjoyable experience to be had.

The only issue is not much change in some characters voices. Thankfully the story carries it through and helps you know who is talking when those characters are together.

Excellent

I was kind of hoping the kid who does the anime would perform this, but still very happy it made it to audible.

really good

honestly this one has the best translation work from any light novel I have listened to amd no cringe moments

Gods slimes new life

New life in a New World full of magic ,slime , and new friends slow pace with adventures

Love this story!

I love it so much that I listen to it pretty regularly, like every month or two, and still enjoy it every time! Great voice actors and storyline make for a wonderful listening experience 🥰

Light Novel to Anime

As always, the story is better than the anime. After going through this to the end and rewatching the first 6 episodes in season 1. I understood the plot better and found the anime to be rushed.

Those who enjoy the series would enjoy this as well. I do hope book 2 comes out soon.

Looking at you Jon Vertullo, I think feel you did a good job distinguishing each character as well as narrating.

goes more in depth and story then the TV show

I've first watched the TV show then I started reading the book and I've noticed that the books are somewhat better than TV show cuz they go on more in depth then the show but I am hooked on these books

I loved this book

The story is fun and lighthearted! It is a nice change of pace for an Isekai story! I watched the anime already, but I still enjoyed reading this! I would highly recommend this book and series!

Heartwarming light novel.

I can see why this was turned into an anime! I love the main character, he’s somewhat socially inept but clearly cares for those around him. The others characters are interesting as is his new world.. this book covers about half of the first season of the anime. I can’t wait to read the rest. I especially appreciate the side story at the end about what his life was like here before he died.
If you’re a fan of the show absolutely get the books! If you like the book I recommend the anime.

Loved The Anime and now the Book

This was a nice relaxing engaging audiobook. I would definitely recommend. I loved the anime and I really enjoyed the book. The pace was nice and it was an enjoyable slice of life book with elements of magic. if you haven't watched the anime I would recommend that as well.
