*********************************************** This is a entertaining enough Isekai. About a dude getting isekai’d to another world with the ability to summon ships, *********************************************** Story 6/10 *********************************************** The story is new and different in some aspects and generic and cliche in another aspects, leaving this to be a entertaining read not very entertaining though but if you just want to casually read something then this does the job, the only characters he really interacts with are women there are no long standing male characters. The pacing is normal *********************************************** Art 6.5/10 *********************************************** (It’s hard to tell if manga art is good I can tell if it’s really good or really bad but nothing else really, so please forgive me if what I say is wrong) the art is good it’s not amazing but definitely better then most of the manga’s I’ve seen, they do women nice too but there’s only one long standing male character so I don’t know about the males. though I do think the MC is ugly (he’s the only long standing male). *********************************************** Characters 4/10 *********************************************** The characters are 1 dimensional but if you just want to read this casually they don’t need to be 3 dimensional. There was a time when one character who seemed caring just completely ignored the boundaries or for a better word for it rules of the MC (and I don’t mean in a sexual way) I mean I know she was desperate but the author didn’t show it that well so it was pretty out of character. All the characters are pretty caring but maybe not all that caring as mentioned above, now personally I didn’t like the MC he’s a coward who gives in easily never clearly says no and let’s people set the price when he’s trading stuff, he doesn’t even try to haggle now if he’s going to be a merchant he needs to have a bit more guts than he does, also he brought slaves and the “reason” for that was from what i recall was because he wanted to hire people who wouldn’t spill his secrets, so okay reasonable I suppose but then just tells people who aren’t his slaves??? Like what was the point…… I know why he just wanted pretty women. And last but not least character relationships: the only long standing character’s are women so I’ll be doing them the relationship with the women never progress romantically but honestly speaking he’s reaching way above his league if he wants to be with them *********************************************** Overall 5.5/10 *********************************************** It’s a a good read if you just what to casually read something, it’s got some new aspects and generic aspects but it’s generic because generic works it’s proven to be successful that’s why it’s generic, it does have flaws but not that big enough to make it bad other then the MC’s personality and I think the ship summoning ability is very intriguing and new thing ***********************************************

It's a laidback and pleasant isekai story, focused primarily on mercantile and comfort-boosting goals. Wataru Toyoumi was given a special skill upon being summoned into this world to summon boats and other water vessels (after purchasing them with money). Since buying the luxury liner requires a hefty amount of money, Wataru's current goal is to use feir boats to travel to other islands and even continents in order to be a merchant and help adventurers on quests. There's been a few groups that fe's interacted with and several women that fe's found attractive, but most of the romantic type stuff has been Wataru daydreaming and not actual romance. Though Wataru has recently gotten two slaves who (implicitly) seem fine with having a sexual relationship with Wataru. There's a lot of small time skips of like a few weeks or months and Wataru has already relocated and traveled around a decent amount. Wataru's overpowered abilities are more defensive and utility-oriented than offensive. As such, fe hired bodyguards/escorts for a while and then eventually bought some slaves to fill the role of protecting fem. The slavery seems to be a form of indentured servitude, so I guess that's better than chattel slavery...but almost anything's better than chattel slavery and indentured servitude is still pretty crappy. Like, why not pay these women wages and have them be employees instead? Oh, because it's cheaper to not pay them wages, you say. Yea, and that's the fundamental problem. All slavery (and honestly, even a lot of paid employment) is just a way to exploit peoples' labor to maximize profits--minimizing the amount you have to invest in your workers while limiting their options for leaving or for improving their situations through their own power. Even at its most unabusive, slavery is still overly controlling and inherently disrespectful (though you could--and should--also say the same thing about a lot of paid labor). Anyway, none of that last bit's really super relevant to whether this manga's entertaining or not--and, just to be clear, it's somewhat entertaining, but not amazing or anything.
