donsmilo 's review for:
I'm the Evil Lord of an Intergalactic Empire! Vol. 1
by Yomu Mishima
Got halfway through Volume 5 and then slothtranslations didn’t have any more chapters done.
This is dictated, so please pardon spelling errors.
Characters 3/5 I liked them
The main character is very well done and lifelike, in that comedic, caricature-ish way. The other characters are one dimensional, but still rather interesting. At least interactions between characters are interesting.
World 1.5/5
The world building is not the focus, but was rather a letdown. The world itself is interesting, combining the fleet battles of legend of the Galactic heroes, the mobile suits from Gundam, and the SDF from Macross. thankfully things like battles are skimmed over and not told in much detail. However, relevant facts are often missing or told late in the story, which lens itself to an artificial feeling while reading.
Story 2.5/5 I liked it
It was funny and mildly interesting, but nothing to write home about. After my translation source didn’t have any more chapters, I didn’t even bother looking for more on other sites, which should give you an idea of how engaging the story turned out to be. Much of my enjoyment is probably just because this is the first decent JP novel I’m reading in a while, and it’s also a comedy, which I haven’t read in a while as well.
