A relaxing listen

It was a good story. The main weakness is that this very much is a slice of life with only a little bit of conflict. This is a common problem with some light novels, but the characters manage to help the story stay interesting. We will have to see how later books change and add conflict/drama. I shall look forward to seeing that.

Love the Anime and Book

It's a nice slice of life story with slimes. Now that we are past the first volume the speech pattern is better though I liked Jon Vertullo performed better. I think Jon did a better job with the distinction between female voice and character distinction. It is a little hard for me at times to figure out who is talking with Ray as the narrative especially between the other two beastkin female characters. Ray isn't bad but I just preferred Jon better.

Slice of life with slimes

An easy listen, slice of life story. Not a lot of conflict, but that’s honestly a nice change of pace in my opinion. It’s often really jarring to have a new narrator in a series, but Ray is fairly consistent which can’t have been easy! The switch wasn’t as disruptive as I feared. An easy, enjoyable listen. Looking forward to the next installment!

Story and narrator

Both are great. It was a match meant to be. For those that like light novels it’s something’s a nice thing to get a good narrator. Though to get one that can match the Mc that well is rather like finding a diamond in the rough.

Karma brake

I appreciated the reveal of what what's happening back on earth tothe people left behind though the mention of divine protection being no longer provided was kinda ominous

good story

The plot is alright thought the new reader uses the same voice making it hard to realize who is talking sometime, I also feel he's using less energy than the previous reader

A good series continues! Just what I was waiting for!

The overpowered hero learns to interact with other people. Every day brings a new slime to interact with and study, What more will the Gods spring upon him?
