Death March to the Parallel World Rhapsody vol 1&2
my honest reaction
In other aspects this read was quite enjoyable. Some crumbs of overarching mystery. The MC that is overpowered but wants to hid his power. I am comparing it to mushoku tensei but Death March seems weaker as Rudeus was a morally bad character but here Satou is presented as morally good and “pure” but still has thoughts that aren’t good. IDK if I will pick up more volumes.
What thoughts does Satou have that “aren’t good”? It’s been a while since I’ve read volume 1 and 2 but during the entire run of the series so far has he never touched or lusted after one of his young companions. I remember that he often acknowledged that his companions are beautiful, but he never tried anything with them. I also remember that he sneaks out into the red light district once or twice.
To me he is just an adult with a healthy libido and the moral backbone to not try anything with his young companions. Comparing him to a pedophile and rapist like Rudeus that sexually assaults his companion the first chance he gets is as wrong as it gets.
I am mixing up a bit of ideas here. There is Satou the protagonist that has moral backbone with enough will power to not do anything. There is Hiro Ainana the author who chooses to write about how the Arisa is trying to rape him. And my human imperfect mind that has it’s own share of problems and struggles, and it twists my perception by hyperbole.
In mushoku the character was horrible, but the author was decent to write great adventure. In here the character is good and author is decent enough to keep him good, but my mind just is on the wrong frequency and it resonates with the things that I don’t want to resonate with.
(I was coding a game for a game jam for the whole week and the exhaustion has piled up in me that I neglected to keep my mind in check)

I see. I was just wondering because one of the main draws of the series for many readers is that Satou is the polar opposite of Rudeus.
