While a large part of this series is very 'cliche cheat isekai' it's also very refreshing.  If the 'lolis' scare you, don't drop it because of that, the main character is refreshingly a gentleman with morals and considers them like his adopted kids and would never lay a hand on them.  If you're looking for what chapter to start on after having watched the anime (season 1) you can pick it up from about chapter 30 and have no issues continuing from there.  (That said, there are some interesting tidbits, extras, and worldbuilding around in earlier chapters so if you like the series, I'd suggest reading it all the way through.) The anime sort of went out of order compared to the manga so it's hard to pinpoint exactly what chapter to start on though.

*74 chapters in* Read if you want: A fatherlike MC who isn't dumb but tries to do the right thing and a supporting cast of interesting likable characters An exploration of a dark and twisted world, and what exactly happened to turn it this way. An OP MC being OP while trying to be lowkey (and not immediately failing). The story so far is great; it is slow paced, but the world building is amazing and each arc reveals more about the culture of the world. The arcs slowly build up the villain and have an excellent catharsis from the subjugation, allowing for the characters to interact with each other and the world. Over the course of the story the MC becomes stronger than his previous self due to his want to learn more about the world he may or may not be stuck in.  The MC always has a clear goal, and tries his best to help the world around him without doing anything drastic. Everyone in the supporting cast is unique with their own lovable personality and you can see the ones in the limelight grow over the course of the series as they're met with difficult choices. Their relationship towards the MC can be thought to be similar to the relationship between a daughter and father, which allows for a lot of wholesome teaching moments.  The art is okay. Only gripe I have with it would be early on, the characters are not as detailed as one would hope, but the issues get fixed later on in the story.  Overall, read the story if you like good-natured OP MC's and like stable world building.

The art of this manga is kind of ok. The characters are a little bit nague at the start but but they become more better as the story progresses and there is too much loli and harem thing at start but the main character's personality is kind of good. Main character is also very overpowered from the start but he prefers to be a low key badass. There are too many slice of life elements in it and there is also too much text which can overwhelm some readers. Other then that it is a very slow paced isrkaied with good world building. And it also has an anime adaptation.
