Re:Monster

Description

From Seven Seas:
Tomokui Kanata has suffered an untimely death, but his adventures are far from over. He is reborn into a fantastical world of monsters and magic - as a lowly goblin. But Kanata, or Gob-Rou as he is now named, is not about to let that stop him. With a combination of memories from his old life, a brand new body, and a monstrous appetite, Gob-Rou thrives in this new world where he must devour other creatures to gain their powers. It takes strength, smarts, and a strong stomach to survive in this action-packed fantasy.

A different, yet refreshing take

This series takes the idea of resurrection, which has been done many times over, and puts it into a fresh and new perspective. In the age of regurgitated shounen series and more often than not lack of creativity, this series is a nice change in pace. I am eager to know what comes next in the story. I recommend this series to those seeking to read an interesting series.

One of the most empty manga out there. Don't bother with it. Even if you're looking for some brain-off fun, there are way too many words for no reason (mainly over-exposition). The art is alright.

A "reincarnation" story but this time it a goblin, sounded different and nice at first but quickly became a "story" about wish-fulfillment and an overpowered MC. It's hard to say that it even has a story, it feels like youre just watching someone level grind and fill out their pokedex.

Quite a manga

It's certainly interesting, and I would gladly see some concepts in real rpg/mmo (like "evolution" or absorbing abilities). "Brutality" isn't emphasized, there is healthy distance (despite this "cannibalism" thing) connected with substle humor. This manga is fun for me.

Alright, granted, this story is unique in a very typical way. Who wouldn't want to reincarnate in a "fantasy" world where you have an advantage that everyone don't? The premise of the story is very rare in any type of media since it's complex to formulate an intrigue storyline out of it.

The main character, who is a goblin incarnated, has a very very haxed based power once you listen to his narration, which are aloooooot. In the most common term, he has the power of assimilation through consumption. Basically, eat this steel sword, your body will be steel like. Eat this magical stone and you can do magic. Eat guide book and you'll gain knowledge. Even godlike character don't have that kind of powers because the potential for such thing is unlimited.

Conflict... what conflict? There are zero conflict whatsoever beside inner struggles on doing the right thing which are heroic virtue. That is, don't kill for fun, don't pillage for the heck of it, don't rape other people because it's wrong.... and don't abuse your powers unless the other guys is worst than you. Meh, I hate stereotypical heroes. Ahem... the MC never loses a battle, but considering the world he in, if you lose a battle... it most like you will die or worse. Yes, there are more worst thing than death in a dark world. His powers constantly grow in a short span of time with great leap and bound. It will accelerated to absurd level very quickly. There are shit load of girls of various classes, but I don't seem to care for any of them. Their background was not told in depth. The same with the MC so the characterization seemed very shallow.

This is basically a Marty Stu story that the author want to stroke his own desire and ego of having power overwhelming and unlimited harem in a magical world where damsel in distress only at a walking distance.

Yep, that summed it up. Don't get me wrong, it's still a good story for pleasure read, but in all seriousness, it's nothing you haven't seen before. After a few first chapter with the awesome fantasy element featuring evolution chain and abilities, it gets old very quickly since none of the ability seemed to be touched on more than a honorable mentioned. I'm actually more interested in the world building aspect of it than the MC. He's just not that interesting at all, and the only reason he cared for human than his own race because the author wanted him to be relateable to us (humans), which actually seemed to contradict the small glimpses of his own background. Same reason for him being good even though it would be much better if he was a dark hero instead.

So far it's ok

I liked so far, i am kind of a sucker for stats, evolution, types and skills, and monster with different skills ( kind of resembles fire emblem and pokemon and other rpgs)

Did not like the magical playboy character at the beginning (as soon as i hear the word esper on a manga or anime that's it for me. i am fine with sage, wizzard or mage )

But as things switched to goblin world i found it interesting and different . Deep inside, i kind of know this probably will be one of those online rpg fantasies (that for me is the worst type of thing ever hahah hate hack and sword art, i like the animation but i can't get into it, the fake thing blocks my imagination and immersion on the history : P )

I will keep reading while they maintain the illusion of real, i expect the history/gameplay will evolve more, since now he has a good level to explore the world... if not it will be a shame : P

A proper seinen manga

by great_k

Rating: 9.0 / 10.0

Positives of this manga:
Really good art. Girls are really cute.
Strong MC that is constantly evolving. This is what true hard work is, not the regular shounen bullshit.
MC shows excellent leadership skills. Like the hierarchy system he introduces combined with squads and jobs.
Like the fact that the MC has abolished the mistreatment of human females.
Liked the fact that he violently executed the goblin scum that attempted to rape the human females, to set an example.
As you can tell, I like the decisions the MC makes and how he conducts himself.

A lot of seinen series are just shouen masquerading as seien. i.e. typical shounen lead and scenarios combined with sex and violence to make it "seinen". This series is what I consider true seinen for older readers who do not have childish taste's.

You may be right about his past life not being explained fully but in japan there isn't really a need for bulletproof vests because guns are next to nonexistent in japan. To get a gun license you have to take safety classes, pass a written exam, take a shooting test(sometimes), get a psychological evaluation, apply for a license, get a background check, and have a public survey done on you to see if people would trust you with a gun. you have to do all of this every 3 years if you want a gun in japan. (not to mention the fees)
^that is why he was stabbed by a special knife and not shot. how was he to know that someone might try to murder him in the future?

started off with an interesting premise...

This might be the most bland isekai i've ever read.

The story (if you can call it that) never goes anywhere meaningful, they just roam around a rather small area so the MC can eat things and get more powerful. Every chapter he gets a bunch of extra powers but you don't even need to read 99% of them, if it's important he will mention it in the very next panel.

This very much feels like a novel instead of a manga with the way it wants to painfully explain everything instead of you know, using the different medium to show. I also haven't seen so much narration since the chimera ant arc in HxH.

Honestly i only continued reading this until the end was because it reminded me so much of That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime, but failed to be anywhere near as good as that.
