Personal Opinion
I recently read volumes 1 and 2 and enjoyed it. It’s a pretty cute reincarnation story, and the grandma → toddler aspect of volume 1 makes it a bit different to the usual 15-25 year isekai protagonist to fantasy world. It’s pretty cute, but can come out with more poignant scenes. Volume 1 definitely leans heavier towards the slice of life.
Pros and Cons for the Book Club
Pros
- It’s cute!
- But also has feels!
- The language is not too difficult (Natively L19) and mostly grounded in the everyday
Cons
- The main character’s shtick is being like an old woman, so sometimes she pulls out archaic terminology.
