vary good series

Ive read to valume 10 this series is very action packed fun story with great character development for both main characters

A super good listen

seen the anime had to listen to audiobook enjoyed both,I just love isekai stories and animes

The more of the story

Loved everything about the storytelling and thought it was amazing and very in depth felt like I was there

Starts Slow but worth it

After watching the Anime on Hi-Dive I decided to give the light novels a chance. The first bit after Teacher wakes up is a bit slow, but it was worth it. The narration is good, and it is a interesting twist on the Isakei trope.

Cute and Simple

I have to confess that I had watched the anime adaptation before listening to this so maybe my opinion of it is biased since I liked the anime so much. The anime is very close to the light novels here, and both are quite good. I will warn you, though, that the first quarter of this book covers the sword's time alone before meeting Fran, so those of you that are anxious to meet the cat girl will have to be patient. Still, that part of the story is interesting enough, I suppose, but it is mainly just fighting. When the story does finally move on to the sword meeting Fran, things really pick up. Fran is pretty adorable and fearless. She is also quite young, so I'm glad the sword isn't creepy and thinks of Fran like a daughter more than anything. They both work together well and have good chemistry together. And, of course, a little twelve year old cat girl holding her own against dangerous monsters while wielding a high end sword definitely gets her noticed. I definitely think it is worth a listen of you are a light novels fan.
