Game loving shut-in Kazuma Sato's life as a young schoolboy in Japan abruptly comes to an early end...or at least it was supposed to. When he opens his eyes, though, he sees a beautiful goddess that offers him a once in an after-lifetime chance to be reborn in a parallel world. The catch is that the world is violent and threatened by a growing evil! Fortunately, he can choose any one thing to bring with him. So he chooses the goddess, Aqua! And so his adventure with his gorgeous companion begins—if he could just get enough money and food to survive, keep his goddess out of trouble, and avoid grabbing the attention of the Demon King's army!

Anyone will tell you, hearing the anime voice actors reprise their roles for the audio book is a huge plus. The voice actors for Kazuma and Megumin reprise their roles, as well as others. you will have a hard time believing they didn't get Aqua and Darkness as well.

They got the english VAs!

It is one of the best fantasy-comedy light novels ever, and it's only the beginning.
Loved the voice acting.
I can't wait for the next one.

If you like the anime, you'll love the light novel

My only complaint is they should get the whole cast from Konosuba in on this. Its amazing having Erica/Arnie. But why not also get Faye Mata/Cristina Valenzuela. Please adapt all of the light novels soon! and Please try to get all the voice actors involved!

Incredible Telling of the story via audible.

It's one of those isekai. It's a parody of the genre to a certain extent. It still does lewd jokes, but the cast is strong enough for me to forgive it. And man, is the cast strong. I love every character and their odd traits. What I love most, is that a different series might have them just be their traits. A girl who loves explosions, a masochist pervert, a drunk goddess, and a loser who gets isekai'd.

BUT IT DOESN'T!!!

Even though it does tend to fall back on their traits a lot, they aren't JUST that. Megumin isn't just a stereotypical over-exaggerated wizard anime girl, she's shown to have a real sensitive side and wants to be useful to her friends. Darkness isn't just a masochist who wants to get beat, she has - when allowed - a noble side to her. Kazuma isn't just a pervert, he can be capable when things get dire. Aqua's blue.

I mean come on!

Unfortunately my guilty pleasure

You'd almost never notice they didn't get Aqua and Darkness's VAs. Kazuma and Megumin's actors do a great job, except... they read slowly and evenly, without much in the way of the chaotic and elevated energy from the anime. Shouting, crying, angry - they're all read in the same way.

The writing is as fantastic as ever, but the performance is pretty middle-of-the-road.

It's the English dub VAs, but they have no energy
