My Quiet Blacksmith Life in Another World, Book 2

De: Tamamaru

Narrado por: Greg Chun

Eizo Tanya is now living a quiet life as a blacksmith in another world. Well, maybe not so quiet...

Tales of his cheat-smithing abilities and overpowered blades have started to spread. Alongside his companions, Eizo tries to earn a modest living while avoiding political intrigue. However, intrigue finds him anyway when he saves Diana, the daughter of a comital family. With the nobility embroiled in conflict about the line of succession and the fate of a family heirloom, the safest place for Diana turns out to be with Eizo. As his family keeps growing, the quiet life becomes even more rare.

Speaking of rare, Eizo's next commission involves working with a prized fantasy metal—mithril! When an elven village requests that he repair their treasure, a mithril sword, Eizo is excited to take on the challenge. Will this blade be too much for a human blacksmith to handle? Eizo puts his cheats to the test, repairing both swords and societal conflicts, all in pursuit of his dream life!

Loved it

I liked the manga for a long time. The light novels were hard to find reliably so this was fantastic.

Good characters

Very repetitive about his cheats and talents. Does become boring after a while and makes the third book less desirable to read.

The awesome world building

The only thing to dislike is that the book isn't longer. can't wait to hear the other volumes.

good leason while on the road

more people for different voices would have made this 1000 times better and more enjoyable. saying that it was still excellent

Enjoyable story and slow world building

I enjoy that the Mc has realistic views and goals set and isn’t pulling some bs outa no where he understands that he doesn’t truly know what he’s doing only how to do it with muscle memory and the “cheats and code” of the magic system and knowledge

it's a quiet life in another world

slow calm and entertaining , it's a nice change of pase from works that always have something going wrong

Thank you

I enjoyed the first books thoroughly. I'm waiting patiently for the rest of the series.

nice and relaxing

I love the first 1st and the 2nd was just better.it was nice and relaxed and funny at points to I can't what for the next one to come out.

my knew favorite

I find it less distracting when a female is the narrarator because I find it funny when the male voice tries to do a female voice other than that no complaints about the story

It's enjoyable, though I have a few concerns

First off, I rather enjoy relaxed slice-of-life stories and this series fits that bill perfectly. However, the author has a uncomfortable tendency to depict child-coded characters as adults.

The phrase 'They looked childlike, but had a mature air' or 'Was actually a grown woman despite her childlike appearance," both show up as descriptions of characters and races. Not to mention the fact that one of the characters is Five Years Old, but with the physical development of a Twenty Five year old, is not a good look to say the least - no matter how often these tropes tend to show up in light novels, manga, anime, etc.

The saving grace is that these characters aren't sexualized in any way and the story is generally light-hearted and wholesome. It's a fun and generally relaxing experience and the VA does a great job.
