Among the best isekai I've read lately.
Honestly, there's nothing particularly great about it, but it takes itself seriously, is "realistic", characters act naturally and so on. It's simply well done, pace is decent for the relative lack of action and the MC trying to get by in his new life both with it's reality and it's moral implications, relations, etc. is interesting.
I lacks a sort of arching story to bind the mundane survival life he's experienced so far, but it's been only 20 chapters, I have hopes for it.
So yeah, pretty much agree with what EijiNami says. For those that like isekai as a setting but are tired of the copy-paste harem, power, action mangas out there, this is a great change of pace.

A rather slow-paced story about a middle-aged man trying to survive in a new world.

As of chapter 19:
Pros:
-realistic story telling and battle scenes
-a slow leveling system
-absolutely no plot armor
-Although I can’t say that any of the characters are fleshed out, it’s most likely the author’s choice- not a lack of skill. They act based on their personality, not for the sake of story progression.
-The few bits of lore and mysteries about the identity of the main character give me hope that the story could develop in an interesting way later on.

Cons:
-the story lacks a goal. The main character just simply wants to live, making this as close to slice of life as a seinen action comic can be.

-the first few chapters are… honestly kinda boring
-The comic is machine-translated. I had to squint my eyes while reading the first few chapters (it got better later on)


Overall: it felt like a nice change of pace after reading all of those repetitive reincarnation shounens. Although the comic has its flaws, I enjoyed it for what its worth.
