I will start by saying I enjoyed this series but that doesn't change the fact that I have problems with it as a whole. Standard wish fulfillment fantasy as its most ridiculous and garish. An isekai whose only gimmick is lost after the fifth chapter and relies on the standard OP main character in a world that relies on the RPG magic system so common nowadays. But what the series lacks in strong or original storytelling it makes up for in comedic relief and cartoonish satire that you can't help but laugh at. The art and expressions are this series saving grace. It doesn't takeitself seriously and expects the reader to laugh along while enjoy the ride.
The MC, while lacking many of the usual "heroic" qualities or charm that one would expect from this type of series, is self aware to understand that his powers push him further and further from his own humanity which causes no end to the comedic relief. The side characters aren't nearly impressive, I'm afraid. The gorilla character seen on the cover loses all agency and personality after her transformation into human eye candy (also seen on the cover). The same is true for the rest of the female companions that join the MC. Any personality they once had is sucked dry after the MC wins their hearts which is quite problematic for a story whose plot lacks any nuance, creativity, or originality. The remainder of the cast could best be described as manic caricatures who only exist for easy laughs and briefly antagonize the MC.
The demons who are cast as the antagonists of the story are more sensible and relatable than the human characters and rightly so if you take into account the theme of the series. Unfortunately the brief instances they are either mentioned or shown are quickly cast aside to return to the MC's continuing antics.

While the series is enjoyable for some lazy afternoon reading, it does nothing to separate or standout from the rest of the wish-fullment isekai sub-genre aside from its cartoonish art style and jokes.
