"WARNING: THIS IS NOT A VERITABLE TRANSLATION
The 'translator' frequently takes liberties, adding content that doesn't align with the original, altering dialogues, and distorting the character's thoughts. Consequently, the main character's internal monologues become disconnected and deviate from the source material. It does not accurately represent the original work, deserving only a one-star rating. Personally, I believe this translation should be removed from the website.The core idea revolves around someone who was raised solely to serve a prince, living and acting solely for their benefit without personal thoughts. They share a close friendship, with the MC being submissive. One day, a girl attempts to curse the prince with a gender-switch spell, but the MC intervenes and ends up as a girl instead. The curse cannot be reversed, leading the prince to decide to marry her due to guilt and a desire to protect his now-female best friend from marrying someone else.I find the premise appealing, despite it falling under the 'mesu-ochi' gender-bending genre, which some might not appreciate. This can be seen as a typical romantic-comedy with a unique twist, where the MC must adapt to their new body, navigate emotions, assert their identity, and overcome their subservient past. Combined with common misunderstandings and the MC's demeanor, it offers both comedy and a heartwarming story overall."
This is a very enjoyable read. Although the main lead's (ML) use of explicit language wasn't quite my cup of tea, his sincere feelings towards the main character (MC) are very evident. The character development of the MC, the detailed world-building, and the likable supporting characters all contribute to a compelling narrative.
I personally don’t quite like the term 'shirimanko,' which literally translates to a combination of 'buttocks' and a woman's private parts. It seems odd to refer to a man’s anatomy using a term associated with a woman’s. The ML frequently uses this term during intimate scenes. Up to chapter 42, these scenes occur quite often, roughly once every three chapters. The ML is also quite typical of an eroge protagonist, being almost constantly triggered (in a sexual sense) by the MC.
However, what sets this apart is that there are clear reasons behind every event that occurs. Many eroge or otome game-style novels tend to gloss over the 'why' with vague explanations like "it's just the scenario." Despite its roots in an eroge scenario, I found the adventure aspects of the story particularly engaging. If you're on the fence about reading it, give it a try! Honestly, I’m reading this more for its story than for the explicit content. Even if the intimate scenes were less frequent, it would still be a very enjoyable read.
You’re mistaken, HP wrote the necronomicon under that pen name, and he is purely fictitious
Can somebody tell me the part where the war with the Orks starts ?
Ok, this left me impressed since ch0. I've read some reviews about it saying it actually reads like a novel, not some amateur-ish wish fulfilment "log" like some others, more popular than they should, web novels out there, and they got that right more than I expected. If the story in it is at least half as good as the way it is written, it's gonna be a real journey reading(binging) it.
What an analogy.
I recently completed this captivating novel, which stands out from the author's previous works due to its distinct writing style. It's fascinating to witness the growth and evolution of the author's storytelling. The descriptions of the male protagonist are less extravagant compared to their earlier works, yet still maintain a level of vividness. The plot isn't solely centered on revenge; instead, it delves into the personal development and relationships of the main characters.
The supporting characters are given ample screen time, contributing to the richness of the narrative. The novel's ending offers a realistic portrayal of life, acknowledging the harsh realities of war. The romance between the leads develops gradually, aligning well with the story's pace. The male lead takes his time to grasp his love, but once he does, he acts decisively.
While there aren't many overly romantic moments, the author maintains her signature touch of tenderness. I thoroughly enjoyed the book because I formed strong connections with various characters, making their journeys integral to the story. The female lead evokes positive emotions without resorting to clichés, making it easy for readers to empathize and root for her.
The way the story unfolds is both engaging and soothing. I appreciate how the author navigates the relationship dynamics and the protagonist's transformation. Her character is likable, bringing warmth and positivity to the narrative, much like a beacon of light in the lives of those around her.
I'm looking forward to exploring more of this author's work. Overall, this was a delightful read, and I thank the author for providing such an enjoyable experience.

I want to join a server, perhaps a discord server to discuss about this novel and to also keep track of updates. If you know one, pls let me know.
I'm getting so tired of ancient ruins. Doesn't the author have anything original?Although it does save time when you can skip 50 chapters and not miss anything important.
Is it ever revealed why he rebirthed? If it is, someone spoil in replies.
All your reviews somehow makes me want to read the novel in question. You have a godly talent in persuasion ?
