Disoriented, it took me awhile to regain my bearings. Scanning my eyes, I took in my situation. I was curled up against a tree, freezing in the snow, in the middle of what seemed to be a forest. Half an orange strawberry was settled in my lap. Guess that takes care of the devil fruit situation. I was freezing, snow caked my clothes, a thick purple kimono and a great grey fur cloak with fluffy fur boots. Tear stains coated my cheeks, frosting over in the cold air. I struggled to stand, having trouble with my new height.

A very interesting  read. Though the genre and style seems common the author strongly emphasizes story and character development. The author strikes a great balance between the otherworld life and the "real" life in the novel which is the key to writing in the dual life genre.The setting and world building need a little work because theyre too generic and very little is written about them. Just a city and a village. Needs time, culture, and technological settings at least. Magic is there but to what extent? Theres too many basic questions left unanswered for 200 chapters.The MC is written well as a person and has so far (200chapters) developed well in character. His persona as a struggling person is deeply rooted and not awkward or forced which is reflected well in his speech to choices and distrust of people. +points for well written desperation and seething anger.Though he is given OP skills his actions are not really too absurd and does not take the reader out of immersion. The author does fall into the summoner having too much summons that they become forgettable trap, it seems like the author is holding himself back for now.Side characters are written very well. The sister gives life to the MC and showcases his more familial and caring side. She herself highlights both their backgrounds and motivations. A well written character that provides impetus for the MC to improve himselve and strive for something more.The first opponent provided a satisfying and believeable character arc. A cliche that was believeable and satisying even if a cliche.The main antagonists are capable, smart, uncaring, self-righteous, and provide a satisfying foil to the MC. The hero can only be as good as the villains he defeats and the villains make you love to hate them.Though the story, setting, and some elements are predictable, the style and characters make this story fresh and an easy good read.
