I thoroughly enjoyed reading this book. It revolves around an apocalypse, food囤积, and a no-nonsense protagonist who eliminates any threats, both real and潜在. The absence of romance can be attributed to the author's self-admission that he isn't skilled in that aspect, which he intentionally avoided to prevent unnecessary storylines that might annoy readers. This approach paid off, as the narrative remains focused without clichéd elements like annoying systems or forced character deaths for plot advancement.
The protagonist's rapid strength growth and "golden finger" ability are well-balanced, avoiding the overpowered stereotype often found in Japanese novels. Despite the somber theme of an apocalypse, the story's pacing ensures that the protagonist's experiences before his rebirth have prepared him to navigate challenges, making him an engaging and clever hero. There's even a touch of humor amidst the grim setting.
The majority of the tale takes place on Earth, with the interstellar part being concise. The author seems to excel at grounded storytelling rather than space adventures, which is not a negative. The protagonist's departure from Earth happens when they're already formidable, so the focus shifts to their exploits elsewhere without stretching the narrative for additional chapters.
While the ending feels rushed due to the multiple alternatives, it satisfactorily answers key questions, such as the reincarnation and power dynamics. Overall, the novel feels complete, and I wholeheartedly recommend it, except for those who might find the unyielding nature of the hero unappealing. The translation is fairly easy to follow.
