A Deadly Mistake

When Kanbara Kanata is whisked away from his mundane life to a world of adventure, he inadvertently offends the all-powerful being who brought him there. As punishment, he is sent to the bottom of the most dangerous dungeon without a single special power or ability! He is sure that he's a goner until he meets a lich girl named Lunaere--an undead powerhouse who hates humans, but grudgingly decides to assist him all the same. With Lunaere's help, Kanata may just grow into someone truly incredible!

The story is pretty good, but the voice acting is a little weak.

From the name, I’m assuming the voice actor is male, but surprisingly he does female voices better than male ones. Unfortunately the high pitch voice makes the lead sound more nasal and winey than intended. But to be fair, his delivery on female characters surprisingly good, which male voice actors are more likely struggle with.

The story itself doesn’t stand out too much from other Isekai stories except for a few notable details. Him literally dying many times to achieve his strength was compelling and helped the his OP abilities feel earned. And everything being the result of a game for the gods is an interesting hook that I think helps elevate the story.

Well Done!!

I enjoyed this story! A different take, and the best thing is I got it as part of my membership. I highly recommend this book! Narrator did a good job, not sure why the other reviewer was so harsh about narration but I enjoyed the tale. Looking forward to the next book!!

more.....

I want more..... I liked it enough to leave a review. a pretty good dropped into another world title. genuinely interested in seeing where the story will go.

The promise of future books

It is a different take on an over powered MC. Spend the credit. I am waiting on next book.

A Great Light Novel

I would like to thank Seven Seas for bringing us another great light novel. I really enjoyed the humor of this book and that the MC eventually caught on to how strong he was after leaving the dungeon. The oblivious MC trope gets tired fast, so I'm glad this one had some basic deductive reasoning skills. I did get a little annoyed and disinterested towards the middle of the book with the super stereotypical a-hole adventurer antagonist but hey, at least the writer didn't have the MC fighting evil slavers. I'm definitely interested in continuing the series. The writer has shown a lot of promise and some uniqueness, so I hope they can keep the bulk of the next book filled with original ideas.

i enjoyed the story far too much

i really enjoyed this tale. i can't explain why exactly. the story was predictable enough that I could listen while traveling without loosing the plot thread (aside from one confrontation about halfway through the main story) but had enough uniqueness to remain interesting. Story was pretty cheerful despite some events that i wouldn't handle in the real world. I'm hoping for a second book that keeps that cheer. The narrator isn't Nick Podel, but does a really good job desperate having less voices to work with. I think I'll try something from the same narrator now.

Cute Lich Girl

Great story. Lich and the half elf were adorable as was the heart of dreams. MC was a pretty empty shell of a character, but not in a bad way. Just an overall Everyman, a little dumb. Fish out of water type. Narration was great.

honestly

how TF does he not understand that he's op??? He seems to be an idiot I won't continue with story if he continues being so. FUKNY STUPID... O, and why doesn't he just use status check???? I really want to give it 5 stars. I HATE HOW STUPID THE MC IS LIKE WTF SMFH

Story

It's a funny story and it could be great if you didn't make the MC seem like an idiot 70% of the time.

its good

it's a fun power fantasy Isekai not much of a roller coaster but it has its funny moments.

Listened to this on audible plus so it was free.
