Takuma is summoned into a world much like the game he had been playing as the character he played. There's two beautiful girls fighting to be his master of course. More fan service than I appreciate, some being very much so there just to be there. Some being amusing with his thoughts of ah cannot think of that now. All that being said a fun storyline and well drawn.

This was hilarious.

I am starting to be a big fan of the isekai genre. Even though I am not a huge fan of the whole humans getting trapped in video games plot in general I really enjoyed How Not to Summon a Demon Lord. Way more than I thought I would.

I haven't read the light novels, but I can't recommend the manga enough.

As I read this, I could feel the feminism cringing, squirming, curling up into a ball, and eventually attempting to exit my body through my skin. 

This is what I get for picking up manga I know nothing about purely because I have heard the title. At least it was only $1.

This is the first and only book I ever asked a refund for. The prose is terrible while the story and the characters are trash, boring and uninspired.

If someone told me this was written by a 13yo guy I would believe them, the sad alternative would be the author never, ever, got out and interacted with real people - women above all

This had some similarities to Overlord, with having a young man from our world become his MMO avatar in a real fantasy world eerily similar to that of the game's world. With this volume, I don't really feel like we've gotten too deep into the world or the magic. I definitely think I'll continue this series, but I'm hoping that we get to where Shera and Rem don't bicker as much, because that was getting a tiny bit aggravating.

Firstly I want to sat this is a series I have already watched, I really enjoyed the anime so I decided to pick up the manga.

The Comedic elements are still quite funny as well as the art being really good so far, the story has been mainly all introduction with little action but that was expected, I know it will pick up soon.

The ecchi parts are still quite affluent too.

So this was kind of terrible. I don't mind ecchi, I don't mind harems or love triangles or whatever, but both girls pretty much only argue with each over who summoned the demon guy for the entire volume, with the only breaks being panty shots and boob grabbing.

Incredibly clichéd and it's not even funny. Very stale.

I picked up Vol. 1 & 2 of this series the same day because I have been looking for a manga series with that rpg fantasy feel. I liked this first volume a lot. It's funny and has those fantasy adventure elements I wanted. My only criticisms are the story took a bit to get going and Diablo says "hmm" so many times. SO. MANY. Other than that I really liked it. Starting vol. 2 right away.
